Monthly Neurodiverse Megathread and Monthly ND Venting Thread :Care-Comrade:
My brother's death was exactly five years ago today. The government refused to let him participate in a clinical trial for ketamine—literally the only thing he ever took that made him functional for a while—because our (absent) father made too much money. So he ordered it off the dark web. It had fentanyl in it. Thanks, Canada. Extremely cool. Love to means test mental health.
If nothing else, his death helped me transition from a dipshit liberal to a furious communist. I now know that there are people responsible for his death. And they have names, and addresses. And, I swear to God, if I ever meet them, I'm going to do An Adventurism.
:meow-hug:
My brother's death was just over two years ago. Mine was given opiates like candy as a teen after getting into a car wreck, later became an alcoholic, and died in his mid 20s. Shit sucks, and I'm sorry comrade.
sometimes I think about the big taylor swift stan account that went to prison for refusing to join the IDF

video game morality systems be like: do you want to kill this guy like an evil person? y/n
meanwhile to get to this choice you've slaughtered about 300 people, but they weren't worthy of moral consideration
In eldin ring there is a quest you are bad guy for killing people, despite it being established people dont actually die in that universe maybe. that one hit me weird
bernahl just takes himself so seriously "ah you're a filthy recusant just like me" buddy, i'm sure they'll respawn on the nearest grace on their world i'm invading, stop being so intense about it
Right? I got like eight crystal gems in my pocket. One trip to the turtle pope and I can fix this.
Also we both killed like a million regular soldiers and there was no shade there
Do you want to save world or do a genocide?
Wow this game is so deep and morally grey :so-true:
deep moral questions is whether you nuke an entire town for no real reason or you just don't do that because it would be fucked up
do you want to do a genocide while crying about it, or do a genocide while cackling maniacally?
i've been playing swtor and it's never more apparent how arbitrary these systems are than in a bioware mmo
the worst morality system in gaming and the small-scale genocide of mmorpg gameplay
you ever think about how shrek is an over 20 year old franchise
Oh no it really is :chomsky-yes-honey:
Where did the time go?
Man where the fuck are 8 year olds getting hrt wish I didn’t have to see this insane talking point everywhere
Also saw this study from nih saying trans women don’t perform any better than cis women in sports when they’re actually allowed to compete. Lmao there goes that one too I guess
It's gonna turn out being trans gives you a slight advantage in some obscure sport like Curling or some shit and therefore HRT is gonna get banned as a performance enhancing drug. Similar to what happened to cannabis because of archery.
Sorry, cannabis helps archery?
If so I'm going to have to dream up a really cool, wandering, stoned marksman character.
It's speculated that it would therefore its a PED. I don't think it's been thoroughly tested.
My sibling hit puberty young and got puberty blockers around 8. They were also very lucky to have access to a doctor who’s a trans man and knows who in the state is safe to send trans kids to. But also… puberty gives people hormone-based advantages over their peers during certain time frames anyway. You never saw anyone banning 8th grade girls from basketball because they were taller than the boys. It’s specifically about them being trans.
Bonus is that most men go on on male hrt to compete and that is kinda accepted
Ace pilots? I'm not sure what the sexuality of the pilot has to do with with their flying abilities, but I support them all the same I guess.
ah, trauma! what a guy, what a buddy. just always there deciding to drop on by, uninvited even! so nice to know how much it cares
A REAL MAN only sleeps in striped PJs with a floppy hat and snores like hooooooooooooooonkMIMIMIMIMIMIMI. liberals will deny this
REAL MEN can build a bridge using two boards of wood by taking one from the back and quickly nailing it to the front over and over. This works based on pure sigma grindstone cause if you stop to think about it you instantly fall.
A REAL MAN will always run recklessly around their house to chase after rodents, only to run into an ironing board and have their body temporarily conform to the shape of that ironing board. Male bodies do not do domestic chores. Your body will reject these implements if you try to use them.
I miss my friend, SorosFootSoldier. I'm worried about him. I miss seeing his posts and talking with him. I miss his bits. I miss his insight. I miss his presence here. I'm afraid something happened to him. If you ever read this, SFS, you know where and how to contact me. Solidarity and literal fucking love to you, comrade. I hope hope hope fucking hope to god you're ok. Please be ok.
people take time away from online every so often, it's a pretty healthy thing to do. I wouldn't let anxiety eat you up about it too much
Thank you, but I know him beyond just here on hexbear and some bad shit was going down with him.
Same, I've messaged him a bit before, and things haven't been great with him, especially not in the last week. Hope he's alright.
He was doing really well, was really starting to work towards getting out from under the oppressive situation he was in. But then something happened that I don't know the full details of. He told me a bit, it was really bad. And now silence, even on his FB account.
Fuck, that's not good. Whatever happens, I hope he gets out of it alright
Same, he's been away for some time. Hope he's alright. Someone said he's taken breaks from posting before.
We connected and shared irl details. Something bad was happening with his dad. (You might know his mom died not too long ago). I don't want to say too much, but now he's just gone. He was in a really bad position, really bleak. I'm worried about him, the first friend I've made in a long time. Probably shouldn't even be posting this.
My mom loves telling me about how her dating life is going unprompted even I've said before that I'm not particularly concerned about it or want to hear about it :brow:

We can get together
Love shack, baby
someone needs to warn the B52's about microplastics!
On the irish subreddit there's a picture of the Irish PM standing next to the Finnish one, and of course because the Finnish PM is a youngish white woman half the comments are really creepy. Anyone who points out how creepy this is gets dogpiled.
Redditors literally cannot understand that women can be valued for reasons other than their appearance. God I fucking hate that site.
I unironically think prostitution should be made legal and mandatory just so we can try to live a while without all the chuds brains being cum poisioned. I just wanna know what it is like if every aingle bad person isn't also boiling in their own ball juice
:ooooooooooooooh:
Me when I have to prepare 2 entire meals for myself in a single day (I am mentally ill)
I do all my cooking for lunch and supper on Sundays. Make big bulk meals and freeze most of it, and eat thoughout the week. After a few Sundays you can get a bit of variety going.
Also I eat a literal slop cereal for breakfast.
I find it helps a lot. But just ignore this if it's not relevant.
