Autistica and ADHD people seem to be either hypersexual or ace-spectrum, sex-typical (new term?) ND people seem rare. in c/neurodiverse@hexbear.net

I did the Aspie quiz and one of the questions said "do you have uncommon sexual preferences". And that question stuck with me so much, like if it's included in a clinical battery it's because it's considered a good proxy for neurodivergence, and it just felt so interesting.

Huh, I went the opposite way, I think? Arwen first, then Aragorn and Arwen buying me a drink from across the bar saying they love my vibe, then only Aragorn or Eómer, and now, Eówyn is most of my vibe.

Yeah, many things I don't see the point in (esp. When it comes to sex stuff), but most of the time I'm just neutral to them. Don't understand getting so worked up about those things.

I was about to name drop togashi because the yearning and the emotional turmoil that Gon and Killua have might as well be a gay romance novel.

That being said, I just finished rewarching the chimera ant arc and the

even if my mind knows it's some basic-ass manic pixie dream girl shit, but it tugs the heartstrings just right.

I think I would die of second hand embarrassment. I almost did.

I'm really happy to have only watched the vape nation video, thought it was funny, and pushed it out of my mind.

Dialectics is when I'm very right, but also very wrong all the time.

My mom got me barbies when I was growing up and I turned out to be a (mostly) top.

It works, folks.

foucault-madness wrote a bunch on this. Gotta discipline the body and otherize to justify oppressive power systems.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but Kohei Saito is one of my recent favs. Don't completely agree with his framing of a completely human-driven anthropocene, but Marxism is fundamentally anthropocentric imo so I'll take what I can get.

I fucking hate public transport right now (hexbear.net)

So, a very talented friend of mine is having an exhibition of her art at a small town close to where I live. Its a 30 minute drive, but 2 hours on public transport, with 2 buses, one train, and a long walk under the summer sun on the way. Whatever, I'll sleep/read on the way, right?

so I show up at the bus station 10 minutes before the bus takes off, the bus arrives, and the driver gets off and turns off the bus. I think he's just going to the bathroom, to take a break, smoke a cigarette, whatever. Nope. He never returns.

I've now been standing at the bus station for an hour after the scheduled departure time, staring at the switched off bus, and fuming about how I have just lost 20 bucks because I missed all the other buses and trai (i had to buy the tickets beforehand), how now I can't get to the exhibition without being late for work, how I will have let down my friend by not showing up and supporting her, and how this wouldn't have happened if I just had a fucking car and wasn't a depressed mess who can't find energy to do anything until the very last moment, letting down everyone around me.

I don't normally get angry, but this whole thing has made me very upset.

Anyone have a good guide/advice to doing hook grip (for deadlifting, mostly) that doesn't make me feel like i'm ripping out my thumb nail every time? (hexbear.net)

As i'm going up in deadlifting weight, i find my grip gives way earlier than any other part of my body, making me lose reps because the bar feels like it's slipping off my fingers. I tried incorporating hook grip into the exercise, and while the bar felt a bit more secure, I felt my middle finger was rubbing against my thumb nail and making it feel like it was pulling it out, and causing a bunch of pain, and no matter what I tried it always came down to that when the bar left the ground.

Any advice?
