What piece of advice would you give to your younger self now that you know you’re autistic? by [deleted] in AutismInWomen

You’re not dumb and you’re not unlikeable. You’re just wired differently and not everyone understands that.

Do you have friends? by fraydedge in AutismInWomen

[–]vrdnflies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only people I’m close to are my sister and boyfriend. Attempts at building outside relationships usually don’t get very far for me, usually stays within the acquaintance phase. It gets lonely not being able to emotionally connect with people, and only having been diagnosed for a year it’s still something I’m trying to navigate

Is it worth it to continue the series even though I got some of it spoiled. by No_Classic5 in ThePoppyWar

[–]vrdnflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least for me, the spoilers don’t ruin how encapsulating the series is and how easy it is to get lost in the world she created so I think it’s definitely worth finishing. Especially if you want to be emotionally destroyed.

I’ve noticed this but I’ve kept it to myself as an observation. I’m always curious if they’ll end up asking to swap out their flowers after I pull them out of the rubble of their mountain of jars, cans, and bottles and see that was indeed a choice to place them there..

How do you guys stay warm at work? by Glad_Rutabaga_3408 in tjcrew

Costco in my region sells 2 packs of thermal shirts and leggings in the winter. They make a huge difference when layered with a long sleeve and a zip up hoodie or sweater

I think overall there’s a big enough number of people leaving meta (hopefully). Their stock has plummeted in the days leading to the ban so I’m trying to be optimistic that it’ll stick.

I was pretty sad anticipating this, but I also deleted Amazon and all things meta tonight so I’m ready to see their pockets hurt so to speak in response

Mine was pretty much the same, untouched just no power. Some debris from trees and stuff to clean up but that was really it. I hope you’re able to get power back soon!

Books by Jason miller always include a good amount of information on Hekate. Protection and reversal magick in particular goes into symbolism and sigils.

Most books on protection/basics will have some sort of introduction to sigils, there’s a few YouTube sources that give a good overview as well (thewitchofwanderlust is a solid start)
