So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

@neversosimple @actuallyautistic For sleep, control the light reaching your face. Because this signals the body to wake up and go to sleep, Put on blue blocking sunglasses at sundown, put Sunsetters on all your devices so they go to red light. Sleep in a completely dark bedroom or a sleep mask. I got amazing results in weeks, simply by following his sleep advice.
Don't let the GOP Putin apologists fool you--we must support Ukraine's fight for democracy or America will be at war with Russia. #Putin #Russia #Ukraine #GOP #GOPTraitors

Thanks for the input, everyone who did. My brain already decided I'm going to write a letter. It's partially composed, now, but I'll wait till I get home to type it in.
I always re-write 400 times, anyway, till it says exactly what I want it to say.
Looking for recommendations: what do you do when you get stuck figuring out what emotion(s) you're feeling?
My mother died a few days ago. Our relationship was toxic, and we haven't spoken for years. I know I'm feeling something, from the tense crackling inside, but I don't know what it is.
Would Fediverse admins like a presentation by Babka folks on antisemitism on the Fediverse, specifically what mainstream Jews/Jewish organizations consider hate speech and why?
If you're an instance admin or a moderator and you'd be interested, I'd like to hear from you. If there's enough interest, I'll put together a signup, but this is just a feeler for now.
If you're interested, please reply or DM me, thanks!
If you're not an admin, please boost or let your admin know about this! Thanks!
So my mother died. Not unexpected, because she was in her 80s, but not expected because we haven't spoken for about 10 years. I feel like I'm balancing on a point, ready to fall off, but I don't know which way I'm going to fall. How do I feel about this? Truly, deeply, have absolutely no idea.
Alexithymia is real, right now.

Listen to JoJo for she speaks great wisdom:
In 2015, I made some masks out of plastic bottles and utensils as well as a few other items gleaned here and there.
OK, in the vein of "weird things I wouldn't normally ask"...
There's been discussion about those of us who don't get accurate signals from our bodies. Does anyone else suppress the need to urinate? If I get the urge to go, but I'm in the middle of something, I just turn it off. Later it'll come back, sometimes critically, but for that time I just no longer feel it. Is this a weird thing that only I do?
Cat5 #Otis: Rapid intensification is becoming more common. GHG emissions from FF burning, deforestation & IDU AG are making the ocean much hotter & hotter oceans make rapid intensification more likely. Otisβs growth was so rapid & intense -some forecasters call it βexplosive intensification.β In 24 hrs, top-end windspeed increased by 115 miles/hr -expected symptom of CC, & thus humanityβs ever-increasing burning of fossil fuels. confirming what we expected. #ClimateCrisis https://heated.world/p/calling-this-climate-change-is-not
The road to the Handmaidβs Tale world is lined with smiling people telling you to stop overreacting.
I took this photo exactly 20 months ago, on the day russia began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Despite all pessimistic intel estimates, Ukraine has been fighting for its freedom for 608 days now. Please continue to #StandWithUkraine for as long as it takes for our victory!
@ScottSoCal That's a tough point. We've done it numerous times, and have 2 more that are getting up to that point.
Give them the best life you can, and they'll know it. It's all we can do. And we're still not worthy of dogs...
There's nothing more precious in this world than my sweet puppy signalling to an approaching dog that she really wants to be friends.

That point in your dog's life when you know the end is coming up sooner than you like, and you want to cherish every moment, so you let him steal your chair for a nap and you just sit somewhere else.
This happened to me, too, playing pool, although it was during my drinking days and I am not a reliable witness. I have experienced similar when writing, in more recent years, and, as someone else posted, I call it "flow".
Just got wondering today - have any of you had hyperfocus kick in when it was something you were doing, not something you're watching/reading/studying?
I used to play pool, at an average amateur level, and two games have always stuck in my memory. I *was* the game. I made shots I never could before. Everything was the pool table, and the cue in my hands. Both times it just happened, and I tried to to it on purpose, but that never worked. Just those two games. Autism? Or not?
