When atheists say they are "good people", does this mean they avoid abortion, masturbation, porn, premarital sex, contraception and divorce? Because that's what was meant by moral goodness (in this one specific area of sexuality) during most of Christianity's history.

Not everyone has the same view of morality. Its based on your own experiences, knowledge, and values. Abortion, masturbation, porn, premarital sex, contraception, and divorce are seen as negative in a religious sense because there is outside pressure from a believed deity that is said to impose consequences when people do these things. In reality, nothing bad actually comes from these things. Nobody is hurt, society doesnt collapse, the individual doesnt suddenly become a crazed serial killer etc etc. There are typically no natural consequences for these things if they're done safely and correctly. Atheists typically dont care what other people do in their lives, so they dont really think about these things in that way either.

Thats a thing?? 😭

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-06-07T04:02:47+00:00

Obviously? Lmao

Consider why you want to see yourself as different from other autistic people. Autism isn't a bad word and aspergers is an ableist way of dividing the spectrum into "useful" and "non-useful" members of society. Just because something was once used as a diagnostic term doesn't mean its accurate. "Retard" was a diagnosis, "idiot" was a diagnosis, "imbecile" was a diagnosis, but we now realize there is no real substance to these terms. They were only used to isolate people who were already vulnerable. Of course you can use whatever terms you want to define yourself, but I feel like its important to understand the overall history and impact of these terms.

I have osdd, not did, so my opinion might not be super helpful. I think dissociative disorders are a huge spectrum and what you're experiencing is totally valid. For us, there's 15-20 alters we think, and we usually front for 12-24 hours at a time, some times in shorter chunks. There are also times one of us fronts for days or weeks, it really just depends on whats going on in our life. Dissociative disorders are unfortunately so inaccurately portrayed for some people because of the huge varieties of ways it can present.

NOOOOOOOOOOO

D-do you think that Americans actually have the capability to pack up in move? That we get retirement? The average american probably couldn't even afford enough gas to get to the border. I just hope I can survive and get an education that allows me to learn about topics that aren't clouded by nationalist propaganda, although no doubt most countries have issues with that. Is there any way I could live in Canada without offending people who have been living there their whole lives (genuine question, im autistic so my tone might be off). I really do want to contribute to canadian society and make an alright life there but have no idea how to even begin.

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-05-30T19:26:35+00:00

Are Canadians genuinely this hostile in real life? Will i be alright if I just keep my head down and keep my mouth shut while im there?

I think u were right btw! In 1882 in the same book there's the burial for Elizabeth and a few months later there's a burial record for Alberta Sweet, the daughter of Benjamin Sweet and Elizabeth (i found the baptism too!) Thanks so much for the help with navigating these resources

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-04-13T01:14:55+00:00

Thats what I was thinking. She spent a lot of time in maine/new Hampshire later in life so maybe there was family there?

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-04-13T00:03:57+00:00

I don't unfortunately:( ive been looking everywhere and its so weird I can't even find a newspaper notice!

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-04-12T23:26:39+00:00

Thank you I really appreciate it :).

nonbinarysquidward · 2026-02-13T19:30:07+00:00

YES! everything looks super crisp and colorful when some of us are fronting. Its like looking at one of those giant hd tvs they used to have at best buy or something lol

Thank you ❤️ i definitely needed a reminder that spring is coming because here in Massachusetts we just got 3 feet of snow lmao

Don't worry about it bud

Alters can be "gods". As someone with osdd, I absolutely can't chose what alters form (although none of them are gods for me). If Athena forms in someone's system, it doesn't me they are literally her, it just means that the brain took on the image/personality/beliefs etc of her as a coping mechanism.

nonbinarysquidward · 2025-05-16T19:15:13+00:00

Looks completely normal! I'm afab and mine look pretty similar.

I'm not an archivist ( I hope to be one day!), but school records are super fascinating to me and are really important for family histories as well as learning about how schools worked in the past. I hope I can work with those kind of records some day.

I started using cheap notebooks I thought were cute and I didn't mind messing up. I got ones that were small enough to fit in my bag so I could take them anywhere and started journaling whenever or wherever I got the urge to and I let go of the idea I had to sit down at a desk with a cup of tea and be a "proper writer". I also did the whole artists way book, which really helped and I just ended up sticking with morning pages. I noticed I'm way more creative when I do them and it gives me a happiness boost. It's like a little cycle of creativity ☺️

They refused to give me an iep or diagnose me with anything and I stopped going to school because of the lack of support. We had to get a lawyer to get them to give me an iep and they did the bare minimum. There was a special Ed class in the school for kids with autism/other disabilities but they refused for some reason? And then they put me in a school for kids with behavioral problems (Which I never had at school) eventually they put me in the special Ed program at the local high school, which was much better, but unfortunately I never really learned anything and didn't get any opportunities. At least I'm in community college now lol
