I dont understand how people can be like this. But I’ve also never been an attention seeker. I don’t understand how even bad attention is a good thing to these people.
“Good” attention makes me uncomfortable. “Bad” attention makes me cry.
I think they (corporations) really don’t understand the younger generations at all. The kids (though many are now much older than that) these days will stand up to employers who treat them badly, boycott things that become unfair, and find better ways to do things.
I think I read somewhere that boomers are the only generation that left the world worse than they entered. The fact that people are fighting back against it says a lot. It may not always be effective right now, but the more people brought up in this ridiculousness grow up, the more people will fight back. Unfortunately, what took one generation to destroy will take many to fix. We won’t see it in our lifetime. Our grandkids or great grandkids will get that honor. I hope.
Same. Out of all my lost jobs, only two can be proven (by me only of course) to be because of some autistic trait I have.
While I don’t value my own life as much as I should, I know I have value to others, and most of that is due to my traits. In fact, I’m starting a job today that wants me specifically because of those traits. I never thought I’d work again.
I have saved dozens of kitten lives, who go on to make their new human’s life better.
I used to hate myself. I’ve learned to embrace the way I am and couldn’t imagine being any other way. The people whose lives I have made a positive impact on would agree. I don’t have to rule the world, but my household is efficient because of me.
Eugenics isn’t the answer. I’d bet if we had the right resources available, none of the people in this thread would say that. Everyone deserves a chance at a good life. Corporate greed is the reason we don’t have those resources.
I happen to have a very big imagination. Abstract thinking is also easier for me. I have always done really well with really complicated things but always make mistakes on the easy stuff. No idea what that’s about.
Today is my first appointment in the process of getting diagnosed and I’m scared.
What if we actually did? Scary.
And halfway through my search on my subscribed they change back to desktop format so everything is super tiny. I’m not that old but the tiny unreadable print and Itty bitty links infuriate me. Some days the audio isn’t synced properly with any of the videos which is super weird.
Yes sorry that is what I meant!
I really don’t like that shitty comment people give. How bout YOU read ME and know you’re an idiot for saying that.
Both my children exhibit signs but not enough to get a diagnosis because it’s like 1 or 2 of my major traits.
This is how my children turned out more well adjusted than me.
You hush now sir! Things are quite loud enough as they are.
That’s true. I’ve been around both. None were particularly aggressive to me but I was a kid when our dog had puppies but I know she was mean to mom. It was well known she didn’t like my mom though.
It’s never a good idea to go near any animal that has just given birth. Since they were vulnerable for a time, they likely kick it up a notch, plus babies to protect. It’s even a crapshoot if the bonded person can come close.
Oh I certainly agree!
I was scrolling through the list communities that have migrated and saw this. If my husband wasn’t sleeping I’d have squealed in delight.
Considering this app is the reason I left, of course I had to get it.
I do have a question though. Why is it $20 now? Not complaining just curious.
How is lemmy confusing? Unless they mean how it works, it looks to me like a standard interface. Sounds like they don’t really know what it is.
We are moving out of our red state by the end of the year. I do have a dog in this race. I’m a mother to a daughter. We only waited because of opportunity, but we’ve been planning it since RvW.
I will always encourage people to move out of red states if they can, especially Texas. Find a place that makes you happy.
Nope. To be fair I wouldn’t look at the sticker price if it was a company of ill repute. I would have to be offered the CEO of that company so I can fix it. Only way.
This may sound stupid, but The Last Unicorn soundtrack. It makes me cry. Also the Red Bull scared me so much as a kid. It’s of course one of my favorite movies, and the songs kick but all it takes is the scene of him pushing them into the sea, which I think about every time I listen.
