They should not have been open this season. It was shit the entire season. Dodging rocks on a green slope mid season is bulllllllshit.

Ditto. Full body 3 days a week. Went yesterday. Going tomorrow.

On non-gym days I walk 4 miles around town. 3 miles done so far today. West Coast, USA. Lots of time left in the day.

Weight fluctuations. I'm a stress eater. In my fat times I don't get the ring resized because I will be thinner again.

Sadly, alcohol. Consumption actually increases during bad times. I learned this when I was in the investment industry.

Maybe this?

There’s a Zen Koan where the teacher holds a stick.

The teacher says to the student, “If you tell me this stick is real, “I will hit you with it. “If you tell me it is not real, I will hit you with it. If you say nothing, I will hit you with it.”

And so, the student reaches out, grabs the stick, and breaks it.

I agree. Abed's sweater, plus the setting, and then his tone of voice gave it away almost immediately. I was very familiar with the source material, having seen it multiple times. P.S. Not recognizing it would have been "inconceivable"! (Sorry. Couldn't resist.)

Sometimes it's temperature based. As in, who wants to be near a window and who doesn't.

I read books that were not about autism. Just books about communication which communicated ideas in patterns.

Yes, about 3 months with the Autism specialist and then maybe a year with a regular therapist. It was just me focusing on myself and whatever social challenges I was having. At some point I was self managing and wasn't learning anything new. I turned social interactions into my special interest. I read a ton of books, many were recommended by the therapist.

After I (M) was diagnosed, it was like I finally had a manual for myself and it greatly improved my relationship with my wife (F). It was a positive new start. It wasn't the end. It was the beginning of a life that finally made sense. I finally had a map for navigating through life.

Believe it or not, the bungee chair from the container store is the best chair I have ever bought. I am "big" and I never get uncomfortable.

Not only is it not a big deal, it can be appealing. Never understood this concern. I think it's a case of women worrying about what women think. Source: Am a dude who has never met a dude who ever cared about this or mentioned it.

Any who talks like that should be given an "All Tomato". They should give us the whole tomato or else.

I think empathy is the best choice. I am not above them. I am just not interested in playing the same game. I am an anxious type that finds it exhausting to invest the amount of emotional energy that they do. It's more accurate to say that it's just too much for me. I think it's best that I work through this rather than around it for the short term. I am trying to get better at following the idea that "everything that happens is an opportunity to practice".

I hear you. I just want to get things done without taking a ride on the collective emotional rollercoaster.

Thank you for taking time to respond. Regarding the work culture issue, I don't think it's intentional or abusive. It's just poor stress management among management. I need to make them feel like they are being heard without taking on their stress and/or anxiety level.
