So in that sense the pupil is thr nipple of the eye, because that is the aperture. Perfect logic.

Be sure to follow the vet’s advice to the letter!

It depends on tone of voice. It can be said gently and by someone overseeing care. Tension reveals if their is a mismatch between the stumbler amd the speakers assumptions about the speakers rights to give imperatives. Some people dislike any form of governance, evem gentle care, and in that case, even kind of warning will always set them off, in any context.

It is about what we assume and imply about ourselves and others.

As someone who reads the news, it’s so tereible right now that you probably shouldn’t read it directly. It would be risky to mental health and happiness.

One of the reason why comedians are becoming inpostant sources of news. Jimmy Kkmmel and Colbert and that kind of thing. the medicine goes down with a spoon full of sugar.

In ancient celtic culture comedians were very powerful figures. I heard they were forbidden from having heirs, like clergy, because fhey were so powerful. They could topple kings with fhwir skills.

The biggest threat to dictators and fascists are journalists. and comedians are the new journalist.

That’s a refreshingly respectful take.

I know a few Goth women that dislike how their subculture has been the subject of a fetish. But a deep respect for the power and independence of Goths is not the same as the fetishization of a people and comes from a more constructive place, I would guess. Not the same as ‘yellow fever’ for Asian women for example.

That’s why we are accused of being the brides of Satan. They can’t imagine how we have gained our power without having that particular male figure in their equation. It’s a hatred of women at its core. Countless knowledge keepers, herbalists and medicine women have been crushed by their hatred of women.

I was harassed and plagued by normie people telling me to “just meditate”. Not possible for me, but that doesn’t stop the “helpful advice” from flowing from them.

I figured it out though. If I completely exhaust myself physically with exercize, my brain takes the same meditation instructions theirs does and can respond as theirs to the meditation. It helped after that.

ASD is really tough. The social isolation that can come with it is hard on people. Wishing you good luck in getting a chat.

I hope this doesn’t get twiated into a way to make ADHD somehow a sign of propensity for criminal behavior. People suck.

Part of our national identity is not being the USA. We’re like the bratty younger sister that thinks we’re better, but is cut from the same cloth. Now we are getting warmer and warmer weather, that used to belong to the States. Our population hugs the Southern border, but the area with nice weather will expand as will our value and capabilities.

There is new research suggesting that certian varieties of aphantasia could be defensive against PTSD. To not see traumatic things, one only has to close the eyes.

It’s partially a skill level issue that people are negligent about and are not competent and unbiased about assessing. Pitbull rescue, training and handling is for experienced and skilled adults who can control large powerful dogs. Not a dog for children or for unsupervised visitations. The dogs should not be bred, either.

It’s right in the name. Pit as in “the ring”.

Her great-grand aunt was a skunk, clearly.

Draw your boundaries.

Also they bulldozed a seed bank with the cultivars they need to support their agriculture in the region.

That candle is very beautiful. Good work.

The placebo effect can be incredibly powerful, and remains so to this day. So in that sense, some of the ‘magic’ was not patched out.

Two years is a masters, not a PhD. Still worth doing.

A PhD thesis is approximately equivalent to someone working full time on a specific subject for four years, if you include coursework and such into the time.

This one confused me. Sliding the drink down the countertop is so deliberate and intentional. That doesn’t scream ASD to me. People with ASD can have meltdowns, due to sensory overwhealm etc., and be wrecking balls, but then the outbursts is more non-deliberate, and not intentional. Less directed.

There’s the whole ‘broken trust’ aspect, from the financial stuff. People don’t want to have sex with spmeone they can’t trust. Maybe she is also exhausted from working and taking care of your four children. Perhaps taking some load off of her by helping out more around the house would decrease the stress levels and make her more likely to be in the mood.
