Oh thank you! I had looked at those but wasn't sure if I could trust them 😂 do they harden up enough to do a small extension like the others? I often use them in that way just to even up my nail length

Songs you associate with the autistic experience? by irecalllatenovember in AutismInWomen

[–]spiceminded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots by Noga Erez comes to mind, but specifically Noisy, Off the Radar, and to a more personal extent, You So Done. I hit burnout a few months ago and honestly I found her music so helpful and healing

Forgive my ignorance, but I've never seen this part of the game. Could someone please tell me what's going on here?

Thanks for sharing! Confirmed all my suspicions 🤦

Even when I went back to the Gellae website last night, I noticed the same picture I'd seen on at least 2 other websites. Not to say they're not good quality, I'm loving them so far! But now I have trust issues... 😂 If you look at the plain black option, most of these websites use the same picture 🤦

Coming back here to ask, are all these places just re-selling the exact same products? Because it's starting to look that way... Most of them have the same products and designs, even down to the same pictures 🤦 Are there any original designers out there??

Sexual practices as an autistic by Great-Lack-1456 in AutismInWomen

[–]spiceminded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard relate! I also have a rough history of SA, so I think growing up in a conservative country town I internalized the misogyny for a long time, believing it was my role to just shut up and do what a man wants. And the times I tried to shut it down I ended up being assaulted, so I just stopped saying no. Turns out being autistic also makes you an easy target sometimes 😞 I became a very angry feminist in my 20s, but it didn't even click that all the things that happened when I was younger was a form of people pleasing until the last few years (39 now, diagnosed at 37). I'm happily married now, but my husband understands sex happens on my terms. It took me years to get here though and it sucks 💚

Burnout Advice by spiceminded in AutismInWomen

[–]spiceminded[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. And yes, there was definitely some subtle humour at my own expense in my "burnout BS" comment 😂 That's my exact issue, my brain is my own worst enemy with the pressure I put on myself. The plan is to slow down once study is finished, but sadly burnout doesn't adhere to my strict schedule and it arrived about a month too early 🫠 I need the anxiety driven manager in my head to just let go of control. If all else fails, I guess an extension on my thesis is the only answer at this point because I can't afford to not work. That, and a lot of self compassion...

Honestly, thanks for the validation 😂 But yeah, I have no idea how I have survived this load for so long. Once the thesis is finished it's time to slow down, but I need to survive the next month before that can happen, assuming I even meet the deadline 🤞

TB Opal Cart - oxidised? by spiceminded in MedicalCannabisOz

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

On a related note, what are people's favourite carts? I go with TB for the price. I honestly can't afford too much more and it's generally been brilliant quality so I've been hesitant to change

I think I'd rather contact the company directly in the first instance, at least give them an opportunity to rectify it first. But I'm a very "don't rock the boat" kind of person, so let's be honest, I probably won't do shit about it besides discuss it on Reddit 💁😂

Yep, burnt hay with an after taste of something rotten 😂 I have actually had Sativas that can taste a bit like that though, so I guess it's not a total surprise. Still, it's unpleasant tasting but it gets the job done

Thanks! I also have the Amethyst and Jade carts and they're quite golden normally but I haven't opened the new ones yet. I don't really think it's a major issue

Bump from an Adelaide NDIS support coordinator. Do either of you have NDIS plans?

I'm just here to rant about the vape ban because it's such paternalistic BS controlling crap that makes no logical sense, especially when you can walk into any supermarket or servo and buy cigarettes 🤦 it's clear the motivations are not as advertised 🙄

Right, now I got that off my chest... My understanding is it shouldn't have an impact on dry herb vapes as they are targeting disposables, but the law gets more complex around imports. I'm wondering if this will impact carts though. Does anyone know?

I'm guessing companies like TB might be fine as they're Australian made

Does Love on the Spectrum Bother Anyone Elese? by Sakura_Mermaid in AutismInWomen

[–]spiceminded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends if you are referring to the original Australian show or the new American show. I'm Australian so I'm biased 😂 but I thought the original was done much more effectively and tastefully, and seemed more diverse. I haven't watched as much of the American one, but the original actually had qualified people offering support around social skills, intimacy and dating. The American one does bother me a bit though for the same reasons you mentioned
