I ran around to "Whole Lotta Love" right before I was called in to watch the Moon landing at summer camp.


As a kid, I stayed up to watch the moon landing in 1969, then at about 4 am our time, my mother came into the room and made me go to bed. I missed seeing the 'big moment' live by about 20 minutes.

I'll change it back when the English and Italian transfer windows shut if there's good news.

Oh ok it doesn't work :(

I have been offered overtime in another store but I don't think it is a good idea for me because today I half went into a partial shutdown / energy loss situation which hampered my work progress a bit. I know that if I try to do too much I am far more likely to get them more frequently, to the point where it would not be possible to do anything... So I need to go careful and keep things part time with days off to recover.
I don't like not helping out... I want to do my very best... But if I don't limit what I do I may find I am unable to work even part time. Umm. Anyway. I am at least doing something.
If I push myself too hard and get issues, every single thing I do is a great effort to do. It is like I have run a marathon and then started work. That is the best description I can think of.

Don't do anything similar either

"Are you ok?" Sounds so innocent

It sounds like they are heroes but really they are ass Holo

People aren't psychic. They understand they might have done something but are waiting for your confirmation and an explanation. If you blow them off at that moment don't expect them to care about your feelings going forward - you've just demonstrated that you won't communicate effectively so they'll feel entitled to divest.

Maybe they're the jerk up until that instant, but once you've responded like that you're also one. Decent people will just withdraw and reduce interaction and genuinely cruel people will treat it as an invitation to antagonize you further. It won't end how you'd like it to unless you respond appropriately when they ask (and attempt to save face) with "Are you ok?" Responding the way you describe also allows them to save face because they'll shrug and think 'whatever you c**t' as they walk off.

What would you consider sophisticated and feminine things? Some guys appreciate those things, but generally are a little quiet about it unless the environment is right - straight guys even more so than not-so-straight guys.

Idemia left a message about a Skype interview. Skpe $$$. Ignored

:mrgreen:

Yesterday a restaurant left a message about an accounting job. Called back today. Seven minutes phone conversation

:ninja:

Today the penis was not annoying when I tried to fix the refrigerator

:cry:




:mrgreen:


While sitting on a bench, a man wearing army fatigues asked if I was in high school. Answered. He asked if I had a high school diploma. Answered. He asked if I thought about joining the army. Told him I am autistic. "Cool" he said.



Thought about military age 20

Then diagnosed. Autism, depression, anxiety, over six months counseling


Meps permanent disqualified




Yesterday a woman invited me for a job interview. She emailed, is 12 the next day ok. Answered, 3 to 5 pm Thursday Friday Monday Tuesday. That was at 4 pm yesterday. Today 10:30 am stupid lil b***h emailed 3 pm today is ok.


Not going. Insufficient notice


Usually idiots only offer one time and it is the next day. You can refuse, but they might not answer. Thought she wasn't going to answer.



Maybe I could put in the cover letter, please specify multiple times


Not considerate



f**k mister redelings

People who self-sabotage but then blame everything but themselves for why they're not achieving their desired outcomes. You can't help everyone, some people desire failure and will work very hard to achieve it.

Sorry about your shutdown :(

Someone made a video about nerdwriter, it's come full circle
*
That lot won 10-0 so they're going to be drunk arrogant now (in the town where dad lives, nothing new there then but online they're not that bad usually. And here... they've been led to believe they're better than other people including their own families so yes they're arrogant but they only talk football after old firms...)
*
On Urban Dictionary everything means something rude and that it doesn't actually mean irl
*
He was being really rude to him so I said nothing, I hate being patronised and he was looking for someone to patronise. I hate that sort of power dynamics thing
*
My art is meant to be twisted nostalgia anyway
*
I watched an interesting video on what makes things creepy, essentially it reminds me of the unheimlich.
*
I wonder if a lot of reasons for discrimination come out of this fear psychologically. Certainly ableism and fear of the neurodiverse, we're just that bit different to throw them off but not completely and it's invisible. But also - in the far distant past, would a white person seeing a black person/black person seeing a white person have the feeling of 'why is there someone who looks almost like me except a different colour'? Sounds very racist today but, if I saw an alien who was just purple or green but otherwise completely human I'd be freaked out.
*
I'm not sure if I'm reading the right book or not.
*
I'm not sure if drawing 3 versions of the same picture is overkill but I want to get it just right before I post it anywhere
*
I think being sjw/pc is maybe my defence mechanism against saying the wrong thing because I'm aspie. I've been told a lot of times that random things I say are offensive. I find it hard to get the balance right so I err on the side of caution these days.

Tonight: fill in the main part of the main picture
