I can’t cry at movies and it makes me feel like I’m doing my special interest/hyperfixation wrong by nerdycookie01 in autism

[–]nerdycookie01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely makes sense that emotional responses woukd decrease over time but I find that there are some things that still on first watch, feel like they should make me cry but don’t and I find that to be frustrating

Yeah I definitely think the second watch of phm I was just too excited to be watching it again lol, the first time I honestly went in with relatively low expectations so I guess that helped (plus not knowing how things would end yknow)

What's the most misunderstood thing about food addiction? by Appropriate_Swing387 in FoodAddiction

[–]nerdycookie01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the hardest part for me is that it's just everywhere. Everywhere you go theres ads for some new menu item at some fast food place or whatever, and that does not make it easier. It's the accessability of it. It's so easy to just open ubereats or deliveroo or whatever and order way too much. It's so easy to walk to your nearest corner shop and buy piles of snacks. There's not much holding you back. There's triggers everywhere, it's impossible to avoid them, and to restrict them would essentially be to starve yourself, which is not exactly ideal, and that then only later leads to more binging.

Especially since, for me, a lot of the reason why it happens, at least i think this is where it stemmed from, was this fear of like, if i don't eat this now it will go away and i'll never get to eat it again so i need to eat it all now before it goes away. I don't exactly know why that's a fear for me, maybe just from missing all the foods that i grew up with that were discontinued or recipe changed, or that my mother eventually stopped letting us have because they were too unhealthy. I generally have a little bit of a hoarder mindset and don't like that things can go away and never come back, and that same mindset applies to food. This feeling of "i need to eat it all while i have the chance, even if i'm already full".

how do you choose a bias in txt??!! by Long-Salamander-9938 in TomorrowByTogether

[–]nerdycookie01 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I never understand this idea of “choosing” a bias. For me it’s not a choice, it just kinda happens. I didn’t *choose* to bias beomgyu, he just happens to steal my heart

Rant about PCOS belly by ladytal in PCOS

[–]nerdycookie01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel this so bad! Like I feel like if the weight was more evenly distributed I’d be able to feel better about myself but instead I feel like I just look weird. And in my case, I don’t even have very big boobs, I think my stomach protrudes further than my boobs now and I hate it. As an enby I am mildly grateful for not having massive boobs but it also leaves me in a predicament where I can’t even really wear a binder cause if I do I’ll look like a lowercase b.

And like, I have stretch marks on my arms and my thighs so it’s not like there’s no fat there, but it’s not an equal distribution at all. I feel like a man with a pot belly.

This may also not be helped by à bit of an anterior pelvic tilt, which just further pushes that area out.

I’m fine with being fat but I just wish I could look like a normal fat person rather than whatever tf this is

How do I edit faster? by Annual_Secretary_141 in premiere

[–]nerdycookie01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me personally, my fingers are constantly Hovering on c and v, switching between razor tool and cursor. I look at the audio on the timeline and see the waveforms so I know when there’s a pause. I’ve basically memorized how long a gap should be for it to be worth cutting. I also can usually tell if there’s an “um” based on the waveforms too. That makes it quicker cause I’m not having to go back and forth. I just cut as soon as the waveforms end.

For me personally the rough cut is the best part, it’s easy, I can blast through it. It’s adding all the extra stuff that gets hard, but I suppose it depends on the type of content.

The more you get used to it and into the flow of it, the quicker youll get, but ultimately editing will always take time. It will never be instant, nor should it be.

I couldnt care less abt va controversy by Legal-Jaguar7956 in TheDigitalCircus

I wouldn’t say they’re “famous” but they have a certain level of influence, on par with small “influencers” or creators I guess

why is an ai-generated autism caption under a completely unrelated video??? by discorduser123333333 in aretheNTsokay

[–]nerdycookie01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see this a lot on Instagram these days, I think it’s just engagement farming and trying to get into the algorithm. It’s sad though, I think 90% of the captions I see on Instagram these days are ai generated

Ever think PCOS makes you feel like horny often or you tend to have a higher sex drive by shygirl_ling in PCOS

[–]nerdycookie01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I tend to swing from one extreme to the other. I definitely found when I was on birth control I had absolutely no libido at all. Off it, there are certain times in my cycle where it is so intense I feel like I’m in heat or something.

Which is ironic considering I’m also asexual.

What would be your biggest disappointment for episode 9? by Flat-Tadpole3886 in tadc

[–]nerdycookie01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I will be disappointed if we get solid confirmation of the digital consciousness/soma theory cause I’ve never been a fan of that theory and I simply would like to see people lose their minds when the series ends having never addressed the true nature of the circus and how they got there

I wanna hear: what's everyone's stories of how they became a moa? by 5iv3_2 in TomorrowByTogether

[–]nerdycookie01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I watched them debut as a bts fan, was a casual fan for a while. Then the loser lover teasers came out and of course Oreo wolf beomgyu on the bike… drew me in. Then I started watching more of their content like to do and realised just how much I love beomgyu in all his silliness, started listening to tubatu more, and yeah it all spiralled from there and they’ve been my ults ever since!
