@vii6es @Gravy_Pouch @TheTrueNemo @singtoconley this is 99.9% correct and I agree.
The sole exception to 2 is iPhone to HomePod. Ironic that it is superb, but all other transition options (including the reverse!) just plain don’t exist at all.

@Gravy_Pouch @TheTrueNemo @singtoconley i switched to apple music and its unironically better, the only downsides are 1. no seamless transition from device to device 2. cant control 1 device from another (e.g. cant switch song thats playing on mac from phone) and finding usermade playlists from others is much harder
English
middle schoolers used to jailbreak their iPod Touch by themselves now it's "if this song isn't on spotify i can't listen to it"

🧵//: Just to clarify, my autistic traits became more apparent once I started ADHD medication. They have always been there but they became much more obvious and intense. (i’ll post them below)
English
@FistFullofPhil @Mollys_ADHD I was dxed bipolar for a decade, before I revisited and got dxed adhd, then autistic.
the productive times of adhd+autistic hyperfixation in my capitalism-friendly special interest was manic, then the crash when it was unsustainable and I got overwhelmed was depression.

My dad refuses to believe his daughter is autistic on the basis he’s not, before determinedly showing us his shell collection in the middle of a family meal

@GroupClaritas @nakedpastor Stop lying. You are bearing false witness by claiming he says love is an arbitrary emotion.

One of my most favorite and most favored cartoons.
English
@Shaded121 @WilliamsNietzs3 @nakedpastor How does it feel to know you are directly the subject of this cartoon?
English
@WilliamsNietzs3 @nakedpastor I think the problem is more like many not liking what the Bible condemns and using the Love clause to excuse the inexcusable.

@boddly_bing @Odyne_LaFee @adhdjesse Attention “deficit” is relative to what we are “supposed” to be paying attention to, when others are deciding that for us.
Hyperactivity is body and (or in “inattentive”; only) the mind in motion when it’s not “supposed” to be. Again, with others deciding
English
@Odyne_LaFee @adhdjesse (genuine question) if you don’t have attention deficit or hyperactivity how is that ADHD?
English
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but ADHD does NOT mean you are hyperactive.
While some ADHDers are hyperactive, there’s a whole other presentation of ADHD called Predominantly Inattentive, which is more common in women and doesn’t look hyperactive at all.

@Ms_Deathwish @BauceSauce are there kids these days who *aren’t* Very Online?
English
@BauceSauce I'm 39 and my kid is 12 and very online....I love annoying him so much 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
English
as a millennial dad I’ve never not been Too Online so I know the best combination of buzzwords to maximize being annoying to my tween; she got a meatball sub for lunch and I said “oh she in her marinara era for real” and the eye roll could have powered our house for a year

Let's talk about the type of anxiety that is specific to autism...
"Distinct anxiety"
This one's long, so stick with me as I break it all down \1

@pot8um @SewcialWarrior I put people off when I get excited about something… because *that’s* when I go monotone. Had this pointed out to me a few years ago, and it tracks… I let my guard down when I’m excited and forget to mask. Look at all this amazing info… oh you need ME to *sound* excited?
English
@SewcialWarrior The first time he’d dismissed me by mentioning my lack of a monotone voice, I did cry. To him, and after the appointment. I was distraught for days. Aren’t medical professionals supposed to… idk… help?

@motherfucker753 @PopBase Haha, I can imagine… it was so freaking loud. Now I have to go see Barbie while they are still playing at the same time so I can experience it.

@PopBase The explosion could be felt during barber screenings 😭 😭 😭

@PinnacleJoe @TheEcho13 @igarglewithfire So, would you be okay with your wife not wanting sex and doing it anyway? Like just existing there while you pump away. I mean, that's kinda gross, no?
English
Nothing gets a woman hotter for her husband than “IT’S A LITERAL COMMAND!”
I have a pretty good idea why so many men are having issues with their wives.
English
rant. and decided I’m going to just use lower-case “god” for these contexts, because these dudes definitely make god in their own image
Josh Malt@josh_malted
@DavidLeonGill @PinnacleJoe @thepursuinglife Yeah it’s gross. From an ex-fundie, the church absolutely gaslit domestic violence with saying the wife should submit more. This dude’s so-called “god” is evil.
English
@IreneUnfiltered @pot8um @LeadingReport just not dairy farming, and don’t marry a gal from the city
otherwise yeah
English
@josh_malted @pot8um @LeadingReport I think my family would have been happier had they stuck with farming
English
BREAKING: A new comprehensive study presented in front of the Pennsylvania Senate finds zero Amish children diagnosed with cancer, diabetes, or autism.
English
@DavidLeonGill @PinnacleJoe @thepursuinglife And one of the reasons I got out was because of this authoritarian thinking where you can force someone else to do something because you can cherry-pick a verse to make it “god’s will.”
English
@DavidLeonGill @PinnacleJoe @thepursuinglife The context of the verse from “it’s a literal command” was around the celibacy cults of that time where you to be more “holy” you had to abstain from sex (sound familiar?) even as a married person. Not great for relationships.
NOT “I don’t feel like it tonight.”
