I’d rather they eat me than starve. If I died tonight it would probably be a few weeks before anyone noticed

Grats on the raise! You two are obviously such a great match. I hope finances work out so she can stay at this facility!

I only own one Nintendo game on my Switch. I’m not going to sit here and pretend most of my games run great on it though. Slay the Spire and Stardew run well. But I’ve had quite a few crashes with Civilization and some hangs with Hades or Hollow Knight too

Wow, sexist, racist and Islamophobic all at once.

There are several women just in this thread telling you that being objectified while trying to compete in a sport is a problem. No one is saying that people can’t dress sexy when they want to, we’re saying it’s a problem when it’s forced on us and expected of us to comply

There are downsides. Not all women are beautiful, and quite a lot of us lose our beauty as we age. I can tell you first hand that aging has resulted in a significant change in how people treat me, and that alone is enough to cause social anxiety

Also, the expectation that we be beautiful or maintain our figures is oppressive as fuck. Think about how hard life is just trying to work and pay bills, then add the time and financial cost for beauty routines and gym. Some people get around that by making those two things their hobbies, but that isn’t gong to work for most people

I hate celery but love cilantro.

Weirdly, after I had covid cilantro tasted like perfume and I couldn’t stand it. I was very worried that it would forever be a ruined flavor, because it does definitely overpower food. Thankfully it’s gone back to normal lol

Small lemon varieties exist! You don’t have to paint over them, you can drop facts on anyone who asks about it lol

Be the change you want to see! Lemmy loves specific animal communities! Bats and superbowl come to mind

I hear an ancient voice, whispering from the Void, and it chills my lightless heart

Sometimes I forget I have a video game tattoo lmao

I think you mean Jainism? It isn’t Hindu.

They also have a very strict vegetarian diet, they won’t even eat root vegetables so burrowing insects aren’t disturbed

Which distros are you using on laptop? I have a gaming laptop, I’ve been procrastinating on the switch because I dont want to lose some things. I really enjoy the control software for the lights and fans that it came pre-installed with, for example

I was just making a joke :)

Tylenol does not cause autism. Given how often people with autism experience RSD it is funny to think that an imagined cause of autism could also be a treatment for one of its symptoms

The commenter that you replied to was expressing despair at how difficult their life is because they have AuDHD. They are not saying that Tylenol can turn off their brain, they are instead asking for recommendations to escape their misery.

You could try understanding the comment chain and comments before saying something that sounds cruel like:

“Are you a nice, forgiving person? It works for good people only”.

Many neurodivergent people grow up abused by their parents because of their needs, and struggle with feeling like they are not good, not good enough, and not worthy of love. Saying what you did, unprovoked, to a ND person can send someone into a self-hatred spiral that is wholly unnecessary and has nothing to do with what they actually said.

RSD is not limited to people with autism or ADHD. It’s just very common among neurodivergent folks

Edit: When I made this comment the person above was being unfairly down voted. What they said has scientific merit and the reader can easily verify.

I’m on clonidine for ADHD. I can actually stop myself from speaking out of turn now, so maybe it has been a little sedating xD

Dating is kind of a nightmare. I know people say anyone can find a partner, but that doesn’t take into account things like sensory issues or hard boundaries around other things that keep us sane. I told myself a few years ago that I didn’t want to date while I’m university, but honestly it’s been so nice not forcing myself to fit into other people’s boxes that I might just stay single even after I earn my doctorate

I’m also with you on refusing to participate in a misery machine for a living. I hope you can hash out some kind of misery escape plan with your therapist tomorrow

I hear you, I’m ND too. Reading about things like RSD being common in people like us has at least helped me be easier on myself.

Existence is goddamn difficult and I wish I had an answer, because turning my brain off sounds wonderful. Alcohol can do that, but it comes with some awful consequences. I’ve also abused quetiapine, but eventually that fucked me up too. Weed does not play nice with my brain

This is pretty funny given the recent political assertions that Tylenol causes autism, because rejection sensitive dysphoria is a symptom of autism/adhd

Edit: that N.B. is pretentious as fuck. Don’t take an incredibly tiny study with very little scientific traction as fact. Presenting it as fact demonstrates how little the OP understands about research
