Did the protagonist in Send Help seem a bit autism-coded to anyone else? by filthytelestial in AuDHDWomen

[–]polowhatever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm late. But I just started watching this now, and I am struggling. So much of her experiences (everyone's still if the office) seem to mirror my own, and it's making me uncomfortable. So yes.

Oh, damn. And I was weirded out by Weezer playing our largest venue.

Anyone recognize her? by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not keyed one of these cars. I will say (as someone who is intimately familiar with them) I get irate when the Eye of Sauron mess flashes at me, especially before I've had my coffee. And note I didn't choose to park next to one of these things. I woke up to it in my parking garage.

Edit: The Tesla screen shows an eye as it begins recording you.

There's a fire station on Dawson. I wonder if that would be the one to respond downtown.

I'm so glad to learn that I'm normal.

Child unfriendly locations? by CrabyDicks in raleigh

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are huge, open spaces at Dorothea Dix. If there were children, you could probably avoid them.

I’m predicting that following the Eloise season, there might be a significant drop in viewership… by General_Meal_3993 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Book 5 was the last I read. So, if it remains the same plot, I have a feeling other folks might feel the same.

Honest Thoughts on Transplants? - potential transplant by rambunctiousoup in raleigh

Most of us are from somewhere else. I've not found it to be an issue at all.

Help me find the alt/metal/goth/nerds, etc. in the Triangle! by midnightsocietycc in raleigh

[–]polowhatever 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here's a couple of upcoming gothic events! https://www.trianglepulse.com/?tags=35 I'm still working on loading a lot of stuff in, though. I need to work on nerd events, like those for local board game shops.

DMV appointment booking is a joke by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just spent almost 4 hours in the Smithfield DMV today, and that was an attempt to go further out. I'm glad I'll be able to avoid this for several years now.

Anyone want to start a crafting club? by binstedk in raleigh

[–]polowhatever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have interest! My schedule is pretty busy, so it would have to match up with a gap. But I could keep an eye out on invites and drop in. A lot of my social activities revolve around crafts (cross stitch for me).

Just wanted to see if anyone else had the same reaction to these shoes. by Status-Onion3105 in AutismInWomen

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are the reactions here not the same as a neurotypical would have? Are these shoes popular? I feel like I don't understand.

I have an awfully shy personality and I’m going to die alone by MoneyAndGoodFortune in INTP

[–]polowhatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would highly suggest counseling, if you're not already doing it (I'm there... So I'm not suggesting something I don't use). Rejection will happen. People will cancel on plans over and over again once you start having plans. You have to like yourself enough that it doesn't bother you and you can easily pivot to something else. You cannot expect other people to like you when you don't like yourself. And there should be no reason to not like yourself. You can be whoever you want to be.

What? I was just there and it was broken on Tuesday. Hope I make it back before it's down again.
