I still have vert fond memories with Maplestory. Granted, I stopped because it was getting quite Grundy, but I still remember the stories for lv 1 to 100

I think there would be PR to put in good smell. Or maybe highjacking to put in a putrid smell. Either way, entertaining.

I should've asked the question earlier. Thank you so much!

There are a lot of Lemmy instances (or lemmies) out there. I don't even know how many my self 😅.

Each instances are characterized by their set of rules and moderation styles. You can see them through join-lemmy.org/instances as well as their description. To see a user's instance, just look at the domain after their username and the @.

Usually each instances can decide if they want to be able to interact with users and communities from a certain instance. That's called being federated.

Sometimes tho they don't think an instance's userbase or community follows their rules, so they can decide to cut all interactions with them. That's called being defederated.

The instance you are on, lemmy.world, is ironically, very US centered, and is the most popular instance. It's defederated from hexbear.net and lemmygrad.ml, so you will never see posts from them on lemmy.world unless it's a screenshot or something.

Since I'm on lemmy.ml tho, I can see posts from lemmy.world, hexbear and lemmygrad.

The benifit of this is that each instance can curate their experience how they see fit. If you think a moderator is being too trigger-happy on an instance, or you don't agree on how lenient they are (or whatever other reason), you can migrate to another instance. So let's say you want to go to lemmy.ml (which I highly doubt you would, but just an example), you go into your account settings, export your data, create your lemmy.ml account and import it. Currently it doesn't support importing comments, but the devs are working on it.

I'm not the best at explaining things, but I'm sure !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca could help.

Leftists on lemmygrad and hexbear don't support Kamala. You're on lemmy.world tho so I don't blame you for not knowing.

Splatoon. The design, the music, the art, the gameplay and the idea was executed so well.

Read a lot, cite sources and explain thouroughly what you think.

I mostly use the last method. Basically, you want to make sure that the other person understands fully what you mean. You can use examples and anecdotes as well.

Training yourself in philosophy also helps, as it makes sure you argument well what you want to say.

Eehh I kinda disagree. Autism is better to describe my sensory issues and my inability to correctly verbalize what I mean, as well as trouble with facial expressions.

The disorder part is there not only because it makes it harder to interact with people, but because of different information processing (natural or societal). Kinda like how epilepsy is also technically because of difference in information processing.

The conflict isn't just because neurotypicals made the rules. It's because they have an easier time forming a set of rules and following them collectively (hence the etymology of the word autism). Different cultures have different rules, and neurotypicals can adjust well. Some people may have subteler difficulties, but even then, it never becomes dehabiliting to a certain point, that point being what is the difference between someone with autism and someone without.

Yeah this is a great guide, especially for clothing.

 

For example: I was called "the perfectionist" at my kindergarten for having routines and wanting to do things the same.

 

That's it that's all I have to say.

Edit: I was as to negotiate with the ones organizing the meeting to schedule for another day. I may have been panicked because I stopped Prozac for a while. I'm really sorry for lashing out like that, and thank you for your understanding.

I'm trying to get my diagnosis. Due to my parents not accepting me receiving mental healthcare, I had to do everything in secret.

It made my life so much easier when I finally got Prozac. I could finally sleep. Little to no obsessions or intrusive thoughts. I also stopped having pica.

But I can't get a diagnosis in most places without involving my parents. Until I found someone who could give me one.

Thing is, if I miss tomorrow's appointment, I can no longer have another chance at it. The health system is clogged and all.

I had everything planned out. Told them I was going out and all. But now, I can't, because our basement got flooded and I have to stay in order to help them.

I know this is what I get for wanting the best of two worlds: my parents' support and getting behind their backs. But I just didn't want to keep suffering anymore. I just want it all to stop.
