The online autistic community is so alienating it sometimes makes me feel like I shouldn't call myself autistic anymore. I don't conform to their stereotypes or values at all. I know the definition of "autism" has been changing since the concept was created but it's still weird how a word I once strongly related to now doesn't express what I want to express at all. Maybe that's for the best. Maybe it's not good to cling to a psychiatric label in the first place...

I probably have over 400 Lalah pics at this point. The nicer ones get picmixed.

Eating some instant grits + nooch and realizing we don't appreciate microwaves enough. Warm food? That is cooked by a robot? Instantly? This is such a futuristic luxury. It's like something from a science fiction story. It inspires an animistic impulse in me... thanks for making my dinner, little robot buddy...

I wish Super Robot Wars games weren't so slow-paced... I like mecha and crossovers but I'd rather play something else.

[#]AskFedi is there a way to totally hide filtered posts so they don't show up at all? instead of appearing as "filtered" bars and taking up space? if there's another app that handles this better than #moshidon I will switch. I don't like having to scroll past giant "filtered" walls like this:

do house sparrows ever get into mechs and space ships? would birds like or dislike low gravity environments?
would humans intentionally introduce spiders to prey on insects?
would rodents spread between different space colonies by sneaking on and off ships?

I don't understand why some people rake their leaves and throw them away. Who started this stupid tradition? And the guys with leafblowers are even worse! I hate them!
These are probably the same people who spray herbicides all over wildflowers for being "weeds." I hate lawns and suburbs. They should be restored to all the farmland and wilderness that was there before.

I wish the English language didn't conflate "pacifism" that is against wars and the weapons industries (like me), versus "pacifism" that thinks self-defense is evil and that there's some virtue in letting yourself get beat up (definitely not me.)

Ĵaŭdo is a nice-sounding word.
I have a question.
In English, we can say "Good morning," or "Bonan matenon" in Esperanto.
But I know some English-speakers who say things like "Happy Thursday" instead- or whatever day of the week it is.
How would we say this in Esperanto? Bonan ĵaŭdon or feliĉan ĵaŭdon?

I'm gonna be honest I don't understand how the DSA is any different from the Democratic Party. Their policies look identical. I wouldn't call those positions "socialist" either...

Some people use #Linux because they're technophiles who love computers. Me? I use Linux because I'm a luddite and I hate computers.

I wish Harris had been more pro-Palestine but it wouldn't have helped her win. The numbers just aren't there. Even in Michigan, only 3% of voters listed "war in the Middle East" as their main issue. Americans don't even care about themselves, let alone Palestinians... It's sad to say but it's true. Just look at all the mass shootings and covid situation...
If Harris came out as anti-Zionist she would have been smeared as an antisemite terrorist-sympathizer and she would have lost by even bigger margins. Americans voted for the biggest Netanyahu and Israel supporter on the ballot. So the "she would have won if she supported Palestine" narrative is just not grounded in reality.
It is weird to me that people are blaming anti-war protestors and minorities instead of the theocrats and incels who actually put Trump/Musk in power with their votes.

I noticed my recent posts say "1 boost" but when I look to see who boosted them, it says there's no boosts. 🤔 I never got a notification for them. What could be causing that?
(Will it happen to this post?)
edit: well no boost on this one yet... it looks like it's my #Ideon posts. I use a bunch of hashtags on those, maybe one is getting picked up by a bot?

Why do so many music fans dehumanize people who aren't into music like they are? I've never met a gardener saying, "gardening is a universal human experience, there's something wrong with you if you don't like it" but music fans say shit like this all the time.
I like listening to music now but I hated it when I was younger because 99% of it was sensory hell. Listening to music was like listening to car traffic to me, I hated it. It was just another form of noise pollution. This was one of many reasons I didn't "fit in" during middle school when so many kids' entire personalities revolved around their favorite bands. "What? You don't listen to music? That's so weird. What's wrong with you?"

"Threads" are really hard and annoying to read. I get that mastodon started as a twitter clone but it doesn't have to stay that way. Posting your thoughts as a series of replies is confusing, especially when a bunch of people reply to those replies... Just let people make a single long post!

Lalah is called 蘭 (araragi/yew.) So here she is meeting a yew tree on a hike while wearing an Iodhadh (Ogham letter which represents yew trees) pendant. I'd like to learn how to read and write the Ogham alphabet, it's neat...
Made for day 2 of Cosytober, prompt: "Leaf." Prompts by @rosie
