read that ppl sticking to the past (even if recent past) negative things that show them to have been a target or victim - they do it because they're scared of having emptiness if they let go of that and move past it..

so they immediately stick to any negative thing and cling to it.. because without it they feel there is nothing, no love, nothing people will love them for or show sympathy for.. etc

(it didn't put it quite as long, it was more eloquent and concise..

im just stretching out what they were saying to
make it firm in my mind)

but anyway i think that's exactly what i do daily/weekly/monthly
and the book is called
HOW TO BE YOUR OWN BEST FRIEND

rant is .. there are some things that are ongoing that were done TO you that changed you (e.g. physically) or your sitaution permanently, and in a very far- reaching way..
so then what??
do these people not know about
paralyzed ppl from drunk drivers like my sister's sister-in-law, who never got justice and will never recover or have a normal life again??

Apparently it’s ok to start threads using peoples names without permission but not ok for said person to ask for them to be locked without permission.

Also mods Routinely lock threads without contacting the thread creator.

Actually the person left without leaving any means by which to contact them ~ so gaining permission was therefore impossible, and I was actually asked about getting the thread locked ~ but my permission was taken for granted before I even read the request.

Hence my rant.

That does sound frustrating, Deep Thought.

Aside from not being given any opportunity to grant the permission to lock the thread ~ losing five hours work on a moderator / administrator protocols and links to training sites post; that kind of rubbed, but ~ I am getting more used to that and slowly learning more to save things before they get lost in trying to post them here.

Including Isabella’s name in the title of your post was always likely to shape people’s perceptions of your post.

Well as a rather well liked person that was part of the idea ~ as being also the most recent person to succumb to the lack of respectful debate here and like many others previously before have chosen healthier options elsewhere. The main direction of the thread was though to make Wrong Planet hospital and inviting rather than allowing it to remain and become yet more challenging and toxic.

The_Walrus wrote:
Rightly or wrongly, Isabella read your thread and thought that some of the more pointed posts were aimed in her direction.

Rightly rather than wrongly ~ and the others were directed at others also but most do not even notice them or the toxic atmosphere given that it is not called Normalised (Unconscious, Subconscious and Preconscious) Abuse for nothing. So many here have just been traumatically hypnotized with the rhythms and beatings of others slights and insults ~ that it's just become a get used to it session basically.

If you want to start a thread about making WrongPlanet better that doesn’t appear to revolve around one user then please go ahead. But I think it’s worth using the previous thread as a guide for how it is likely to turn out. Do you think you’ll get new ideas or will it rehash the original?

A mix of rehashing the original and new ideas methinks ~ but rather than as before using the role of 'thread-host' as primary 'modus-operandi'; it will be as 'quasi-moderator' so any rules that do get broken and I am going to quote the rule, identify the error and report it as quickly as possible.

I was unfortunately under the false impression previously that Isabella' had in fact as Pepe put it 'left the building, and that I had the luxury of time to discuss or resolve each issue with each post writer in turn ~ little realising that the longer I left the insultathon; the more offence it was causing Isabella.

Obviously as moderators you are dealing with the abuse on a more than regular basis, and thus have gotten used to putting up with it to much larger degrees.

For those of us who do not get used to it; the Normalised Abuse is getting really bad, such as blooiejagwa has also commented upon above.

Basic personal piece of discernment lesson. :lol:

As an autistic born without the appropriate colored contexts.
Many tried to compensate by being more colored in contexts and taken that way, and some gets negative and inappropriate colors of contexts and stayed that way.
A few are lucky enough not to end up being overly compensated and remain functional.

Post says; reread.
Colored sense says; piss off.

Post says; observation.
Colored sense says; this is reality.

Post says; suggestion, optional.
Colored sense says; should, must - can, can't / have, have nots.

Post says; regulate.
Colored sense says; suppression.


:skull: I missed too many lessons because of this.
Is there a guide for my egocentric reactionary ADD and BPD-like comorbidities for emotional management, personal contexts and possible paths of stoicism amongst a very emotional culture? :lol:


TL;DR -
The things I've been fighting over myself...

Put a YouTube video of Eid sobg from my childhood fr kids. Then the next thing that came on an ad from Freedom Bakery (a cause I already support) and there was an in-depth video of a mother who lost her 19-year old son Ayman (who was a volunteer at the local hospital) to a recent bombing by Saudi/NATO types who specifically targeted the Yemeni hospital which they were not supposed to.

It went in depth showing how they'd paintee the rooftop specifically so these Saudi or NATO bombers wd not target it as iy was a neutral ground. They pretended it was an error but it wasn't.

The insidious hypocrisy of Saudi - hpw much of their own security forces/ police in their own country are Yemeni to begin with!!

...how can u target a hospital?? If this were Israel Muslims wd have an outcry but no.. Ignore what your own supposed brothers do (or dont know about it?? Idk)
Id ask my nice brother details of this since he's an expert in this and all other Eurasia anf M.East currwbt conflicts n history but i dont even care anymore-

We lived in Yemen when we were kids for a time. My brothers were born there.

Prophet blessed Yemenis specifically. And now look what's happening. What is there tp celebrate when things like this amd more occur all around the world feels like Im complicit yet it's so tangled that one cannot make head nor tail of it (unless someone educated in it like my brother ). An era of targeting civilians in a country that is notyours and sometimes calling them terrorists as an afterthought

You have mistaken a footprint for the traveller, and forgotten that all journeys start with a first step.

Refrain from describing peoples journeys as futile or other people's input as nonsense ~ on The Haven of forums; for to help and support each other is all that we need do here.

Your help and support is very much appreciated. :D

Not really a rant but my partner's newspaper phobia is causing a few ripples.
I used newspaper to wrap some scraps, then left it on the bench, then someone freaked out about everything being contaminated, including myself.
I don't really understand it and feel like saying, "it's only paper for Christsake, it's not going to kill you!"
But I've already been accused of laughing at what is a "serious" phobia.
Pity that I find it so damned funny.

Not going to point the finger at the Japanese manufacturer but the saw I recently bought and am having to return...for [expletive deleted]'s sake can none of you moronic companies employ actual engineers that know how to design a vice? This couldn't grip wet lettuce properly and it's also supplied with ten years of wear as standard so it flops around making it extremely inaccurate.

What makes it worse is that ALL the same type of saws from different manufacturers use the same [expletive deleted] design. I expect a proper vice not this [expletive deleted] excuse.

And while we're on the subject can not of you [expletive deleted]wits make the mitre indications accurate? This goes beyond bad quality control to sheer [expletive deleted] design.

The gift I gave Nurse I ate on Wednesday last week, because she had left it behind. Ginger chews..
My excuse being that I had it up high so when I walked past I stopped and noticed the expiry date was 2018 and God forbid I give someone an expired product . i doubt ginger chews have much in them that expires but. .

And then to top it off I bought 3 boxes of them yesterday so as to have 1 fr her but finished 1 and the other 2 were covered in rain as I had left the car windows open so I gleefully decided to keep them for myself..

There might be a day when I'd be forced to leave the house, and abandon those who held me too tight on places I wouldn't be willing to go with.

There might be a possibility that I may be forced to destroy everything that held me too dearly, just so I can roam freely.


I pray it wouldn't come to that.

WARNING: It can trigger some people.

WTH do you all mean by 'real autism'?

Autism and helpless with severe GDD?
Autism and severe dyspraxia with other whatever more labels starts with dys-, served with cocktails of meds?
Autism and severe ADHD with no apparent body control or seizures?
Autism and aphasia with some messed up various forms of health issues?
Autism and more behavioral crap with no apparent language ability?
Autism and nonverbal with 1000++ everyday triggers and hours of unbroken stimming?

Autism and something-something cannot be worked around, cannot remedied, cannot be put to use other than trapping someone in their unreliable bodies and senses and chaos and mental cycles and emotional messes???

Whut? WHUUUT?! :x

Everyone is just as fricking stressed about something.

Also WTH do you all mean by 'easy autism'???

Autism and work-aroundables and compensations and redeeming crap???
Autism and whatever it is manageable to be put under the rug?
Autism and suck it all up let's pretend it does not exist because people don't wanna deal with it??
Autism and appearing pretty and smart, "meh, am sure this one doesn't get lost in the hallway without crying"???
Autism and budget cuts cause you're on your own grow up???

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dear Science,


Solve this. Properly. Without bias. Without the dehumanized crap. Without the one-sided crap because all stories are valid.
Thank you. Because screw priorities, screw fundings, screw politics, screw whatever crap in the whole autism community is competing one another about.


Sincerely,
an impatient "patient". :wink:
*I can disregard autism as a label, as a stance, even as an identity -- I can take it for what it is in a complete dot.
Others don't. Or can't. And thought they do when it's not -- in which I may fall over such phase from time to time. That's what truly bothers me.
Everyone wants their fulfillments. And everyone wants their peace.

PS - Or not.
Because most of these thoughts and concerns got nothing to do with my life at all*. :mrgreen:
And it's best that I get my mind out off the gutter so to speak. Really, thoughts like these are a headache.
Just like any recursive thoughts that are just as unpleasant and remained unresolved constantly nagged by loud and incessant conscience.
