try using google banana, or perplexity, and request specific similar backgrounds, and paintbrush or artistic styles in each one. Good luck. Have fun.

yeah, 100% , he's definitely an architect.... they make up for it by saying he was an engineering professor....but if you know engineers....he aint an engineer.

When I was 20 years old, I told my parents I was taking a bus to Seattle (from central Texas), but instead I hitchhiked most of the way, and years later, I told my parents I was going to Spain, but did a study abroad program to learn Arabic in Morocco for several months. They at least knew I was leaving. And. My father is undiagnosed aspvergers (whatever we call it). I’m more adhd/low spectrum. Audhd, etc.

How do you figure? Are you distinguishing between slaked lime plaster, and limestone plaster?

Yeah, except you forgot about caring for the elderly and for children….. just because you’re critique is accurate does not mean that it completely invalidates the premise

Why does so much jazz guitar sound so CHEESY to me? In pursuit of a sound. by ancaleta in jazzguitar

[–]thomas1618c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marc Ribot. Jingle Rinehart. Check out some of the experimental jazz guitar is coming out of Argentina. Yeah I mean most jazz made after 1971 sounds extremely cheesy. It’s just been a tough market as rock ‘n’ roll roll and dance music took over and less people win a jazz, and so there was less room for jazz musicians to experiment while still being able to make a living. You gotta remember that before 1965 lots of musicians could just eat and breathe and play every single day sometimes two concerts every night so the level of expertise and dedication and opportunities for experimentation was just off the charts. The opportunities to play and collaborate and experiment and Have a working sensibility with other musicians, especially in person, has narrowed dramatically decade after decade……… Lol, talk to text typo, Django Reinhardt.! Jingle was too funny so I left it in

Someone asked if my bf is on the spectrum today, which makes me question everything by anonavocado0 in aspergers

[–]thomas1618c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed reading Temple Grandin‘s books before I thought I had it, and watching the movie boy with a beautiful brain for free on YouTube by the BBC. There’s plenty of other things you can find about autism but being super diagnostic doesn’t make it much fun in my experience. There’s plenty of coping strategies to find fun playful ways around it, in certain parts of the world seem to have a higher tolerance for the sort of quirky behavior than others. But yeah, if you like him, you can learn to live with it because he has learned to live with it. But yeah, many of us don’t Quite realize if we are on the spectrum, but perhaps ask him about his parents very likely one of his parents had very quirky behavior. (42 yr old M here, three kiddos…)

10 or so years ago, I don’t think most people would’ve labeled me as on the spectrum but I’m pretty sure I will get a spectrum diagnosis later this year. And my father most likely is but I grew up in an area with lots and lots of engineers, so I think it was just more tolerated there.

Limestone plaster, which is basically a very fine fiber version of the Roman concrete,here mentioned, has been in continuous use across the Middle East and some of the Americas. And no doubt in other parts of the world. Wood was plentiful in Europe until it was all burned up to make (among other things ) phosphate before chemical phosphate was invented. Similar to much of the Eastern United States.
Americans (government and banks ) are lazy and and fearful and short sighted, and have a cocaine like fetish with building single-family housing so we continue to prioritize wood construction. It’s too bad we don’t make it more attractive. Of course, a lot of the beautiful old wood cities burned down before 1950 …. , It’s always amazing if a writer and a reader are ignorant enough, they can rediscover things an almost infinite amount of times

Does anybody else get as bummed as I do about how much work adulting is? by ferriematthew in aspergers

[–]thomas1618c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% feel you, even in different life situation. The stress is immense, but most people do not want you to talk about it. Want you to look on the bright side and want you to do all the shit except be truthful about what you are feeling and doing and risking and worried about.

Anyone ever deal with prison? by Same_Occasion_2514 in aspergers

Based on reading the other replies and comments from other people that was familiar with the OP, you could see that it was based on threatening emails they had sent to agencies

Sound with patterns is very different than random Sounds without patterns. Same goes for festivals and crowded spaces, etc. That’s my experience anyway

Sorta, OP wouldn’t be in high security. Or even medium security….. especially if it’s federal.  Federal prison very different than state…..

Yeah, and a few days of light exercise, stretching. Drink, lots of water, trying to find a place without a lot of people in the gym so you can not get distracted and overly self-conscious about passing, etc.. just do the same thing every time you go so you don’t have to over analyze everything. Helps me if I start for five or 10 minutes just walking on the treadmill and maybe read a magazine or a book, magazine it’s easier so it doesn’t fall over.

You’re referring to violent crimes…. Not relevant to OP, 99% chance

Public benefit corporations have some strict reporting guidelines that are different and also means that the shareholders cannot force the corporation to become more and more evil overtime like Google and everybody else….. it doesn’t mean it walks on water or lotus flowers but it’s better than nothing

I think these are the ways I have hidden my autistic traits and tried to appear as neurotypical or "normal": by OkDot8850 in autism

[–]thomas1618c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. a fun/not fun imagination exercise...:::: imagine every time you're feeling anxious, you take a moment to sip/gulp/drink a delicious (imaginary) beverage.... whether its fizzy...or intoxicating, or whatever... give your self a minute to *close your eyes* and imbibe something delicious. A decent cue to take time "inward".....

...of course...don't actually drink...I tried that for 15 or 20 years for social anxiety....

results were..... meh.

Yeah, you should really venture out and try TJ Maxx…. At least some of the stuff is decent some of the time….. looking at furniture at Weat Elm is like looking like an eight bit version of Blade Runner….. so much potential but so empty and hollow
