Calibrating your doctor is the best way to put this. I struggle a lot with pain scales; I’m not neurotypical (self-assessment is especially difficult) and I’ve been through a few nasty injuries/illnesses so I don’t always feel my own pain scale is calibrated (I ran a 10k on a torn hip labrum and went 3 days with…
There’s no diagnosis for sociopath, it isn’t even defined by the DSM. As far as psychology is concerned, it doesn’t exist. Psychopaths are a thing, but they’re usually too self-serving to do mass shootings.
Yeah, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING is usually on my mind in those scenarios, including my own courthouse wedding 6 months after I met the guy. I would never recommend anyone follow the timeline we did, but sometimes you just find someone you can trick into loving you. About three years later he still thinks I’m a cool lady…
Getting married suddenly changed the stakes and changes the way you interact; suddenly you’re in it for the long haul no matter how long you’ve been together. I didn’t get the opinion from a pro that I’m autistic AF until I was 29—on a good day I’m just awkward but on a bad day people joke that I’m a robot because…
It’s the ridges on the roof of his mouth, yo. He’s opening that wide.
Did you do any research for this article? Facebook does not allow you to use ANY 2-factor authentication before first giving it a phone number or using a physical key. Code generator is not an option unless you first provide a phone number.
You can use whatever words you like, and there was nothing in this article that gave the impression these words are forbidden. You are kicking a straw man around by assuming someone saying, “Hey these words are offensive” is the same as telling you that you can’t use them, or that people would be right to string you…
There’s a difference between someone using an obscenity and directing it at someone. Someone going through their whole life offended at every obscenity used is only hurting themselves, but more importantly doesn’t take responsibility for their own feelings and is seeking to control other people through their offense.…
The language we use is important because not only does thought inform language, language shapes thought. I’m also of the mind that people should understand the language they use and be aware of its effect on others. Those of us in marginalized populations can still marginalize others and suffering from prejudice does…
Oh, I meanmug the shit out of the microwave. Who knows what that thing is saying when it phones home!
Now that I’m an old woman, I’ve set aside childish things.
I hope you make it long term. I used to be the nerd in the cubicle who fights with your insurance company to cover your chemo, and sought out funding for medication and sometimes lodging assistance as well. I used to cry reading people’s charts. The diseases that comprise cancer are horrible and I wouldn’t wish them…
If you’re someone who likes to pretend they’re a spy, sure. But neither of us works for the clandestine service ;)
Like I said, I always assume I’m being monitored by my devices.
Spouse works in intelligence, we have to be mindful of recordings in daily life.
I like my Nexus 6p a lot, and while I don’t think it’s ok for the Chinese or US to spy on people’s devices, the fact is, they do. It doesn’t require software backdoors. I always assume I’m being monitored by my devices and conduct myself accordingly. We use a VPN at home, we’re mindful of cameras and microphones, and…
If you are a moderately good looking dude and you flirt with me, I will tip the shit out of you. I’m probably the one making this awful for everyone else, but I’m easy and my eyes ain’t broke.
Rofl wtf kind of stupid question is that? My doc thinks it’s colitis instead of celiac so I’m back to eating wheat again, which means I can go to restaurants now. What stupid place is this so I can be sure to avoid it?
Haha no you don’t, just jokingly call him by his regular order and if he’s got the stones and he wants you to know his name, he’ll tell you.
I’ve been going to my regular pho spot that is all Vietnamese for like, 10 years and only learned the guys’ names this last year. I was like “I feel kind of weird but I’ve been coming here for ages and I don’t even know your name.” Like, Nyui knows my regular order and picks on me about always getting the same thing,…
