    Can confirm. Everything on top of my desk has a specific spot and orientation but anything additional, like important papers placed onto it will disappear from the physical nature of reality and my memory in a very short yet unknown amount of time

    I am certified both. Also this is why the term neurodiversity is so much better. Overlap is quite common.

    You’re not doing it on purpose but your comment does highlight the ease people dismiss the social experience of hidden disability.

    • Oh your that (weird) person always wearing gloves.

    • Why are you so sensitive about your gloves?, just take em off.

    • Someone tried to rip off her gloves the other day and they are in the hospital now.

    Comments in this style are more common for teens but the sense of not belonging even if for something at first glance mundane lasts well into adulthood.








  • This is known hoax, the source is a lie and the real source is not trustworthy in a scientific sense.

    What is actually on Wikipedia and by the person claimed as a false source is this:

    Funeral rites in animals

    While grief is common to many animals, funeral rituals are not. However, they are well documented in African elephants.[14]

    Ronald K. Siegel writes that:

    one cannot ignore the elaborate burying behaviour of elephants as a similar sign of ritualistic or even religious behaviour in that species. When encountering dead animals, elephants will often bury them with mud, earth and leaves. Animals known to have been buried by elephants include rhinos, buffalos, cows, calves, and even humans, in addition to elephants themselves. Elephants have [been] observed burying their dead with large quantities of food, fruit, flowers and colourful foliage.[15][clarification needed]

    Both wild and captive chimpanzees engage in ritualized behaviors at the death of a group member. These behaviors begin with group or individual silence, which may last for hours and followed by behaviors such as distinctive vocalizations; grooming the carcass; solemn visitation and gazing at the carcass by group members; displays; and lamentation-like whimpers or hoo-calls of distress.[6]

    Attention to the dead is not unique to elephants or chimpanzees. Dolphins have been known to stay with recently deceased members of their pod for several days, preventing divers from getting close.[8] However, the reasons for this remain obscure. While scientists can observe their actions, the thought processes that motivate them are beyond current study.[16]

    Tahlequah (a.k.a. J35), a female orca, carried the carcass of her newborn infant for 17 days.[17]Whether this was a “tour of grief” or merely instinct is debated.[10]

    Crows and other corvids also seem to participate in funeral-like ritualistic behavior, including gathering around and holding vigils over the carcass.[9][

    Congrats, you setup an algorithm that aims to trigger real people to behave a certain way by tricking their subconscious trough language.

    You might call this business, i call it enshitification.

    When people need an app they are able to look for a fit and compare optioned tailored to their needs, ideally using factual neutral information about similar apps.

    Customers who are lured into clicking based purely on a ad are not making a deliberate decision for themselves and while you are not responsible for their actions you are preying on it.

    To me, and this is an opinion: All software should Be open source and free, all software should exist to the benefit of all people and preferably be well documented, and public advertisement of any kind should be contained within very strict limits.


  • Most of these things have a free tier. I would be hardly suprised if roblox doesn’t.

    As someone who does know a lot about the industry i simply cannot recommend roblox. However i can recommend the following:

    Make an account tougher with your daughter and let her play in the living room, streamed to the tv if you can and let her guide you trough what this game is and what she finds fun about it.

    Bonding aside there is a good chance that the free tier is all she needed and the real fun is connecting multiplayer with her real life friends.

    Sooner or later you will face some examples of the traps and dangers, but those are generally the same ones that exist everywhere online, at which point you can let your daughter explain the supposed purpose of em while directly complimenting it with your parental insight. This helps you set and explain boundaries in relation to the game and helps build resilience to the inherent risks of the digital age.
