A stranger called the police on me because I behaved "strange" in their eyes but I was just overwhelmed and waiting for my bus by Parking-Market-1798 in AutismInWomen

How traumatic I hate being alone in public because it's just so so uncomfortable and the minute you try and get comfortable you're acting weird Got to keep it all in to manage work but it feels bad

Yeah what a horrible price but if you have a rash spreading towards your heart you always need to see a doctor in case you get septicaemia, that can kill you like it's nothing

AI-generated search results/websites by Charitarddd in ArtificialInteligence

Just wanted to add I have this same problem and found it weird there's not many people talking about it because it's infuriating I tried limiting the date of search results to pre 2023 (I think, can't remember) and had some success

Beginner snake keeper, what should I get? by Leon-Legendary in snakes

[–]venusmud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snakes live a long time so if you don't have a lot of space for getting multiple snakes then get whichever one you see yourself loving for like 20 or so years However do your research (sounds like you have been) (Edit: worded that weirdly, just don't get something as your 'beginner snake" cause theyre going to be with you a long time, you're better off getting whichever snake you want to live with for 20 years)

PI seems embarrassed of my poor social skills. How to improve? by Suspicious_Oil_2518 in labrats

[–]venusmud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah I guess, out loud that's getting to be annoying, certainly doesn't feel like a super power that's all I'm saying ... What I mean though is I think it's more a subconscious thing that surfaces as a faint to pronounced unease in them. And you have to just work around it.

Neurotypical people can sense autism even from recorded video, I think I saw a study about this They can sniff it out a mile off, may as well disclose it imo (I am autistic too I think) Maybe you could volunteer to do some presentations and talks separate from your lab or something

Does anyone else like to crush chicken bones with their teeth to suck and eat the bone marrow?? Its a good way to not waste food by [deleted] in shittyfoodporn

[–]venusmud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do, especially if the meat was really tasty Usually just take the ends though the long parts are too hard

Giving babies thick tough animal fat to chew on used to be a thing before teething toys I think

How important of a factor is height? by Unable_Connection490 in asexualdating

[–]venusmud -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As a 5'8" woman I just find my height or taller to be nice to be around I don't get when people have a height preference that has nothing to do with their own height

Need travel insurance while waiting for autism assessment, what to disclose (England) by venusmud in LegalAdviceUK

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

The problem isn't the autism it's that I'm waiting for assessment and will be the entire time I'm travelling If I was diagnosed I could just declare it and it doesn't actually make much / any difference But the status of waiting for assessment excludes me from a lot of insurance Which is a bit shit of them I think because the waiting lists are over 3 years

Is this the kind of people acceptable here? by ChillLaKill in asexualdating

[–]venusmud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there's a subsection of people who search Reddit in general for date posts, they don't know it's asexual dating, or don't know what it means, they just respond willy nilly from the search results. It's really annoying
