a thing which i recently discovered exists, and that i am now trying very hard to not obsessively learn:

signed toki pona

mh~, re: old post, mh- 

i think actually sometimes i forget the feeling. sometimes it does go away

i don't control it (yet? or won't ever? idk) but sometimes that feeling is just.... gone. for a few seconds, a few minutes, a few hours, a day or two

sometimes weeks go by and i've barely felt it at all

maybe the right drugs will make it stay that way for longer

being depressed feels like constantly being in pain, but without any physical pain

mastodon features i want that are probably not too difficult to implement but i'm not sure i could add myself:

1. option to have the post button greyed out until i've chosen if i want it public/private/unlisted (so basically remove the default and choose every time)

2. option to, despite what i just said, have replies default to the same public-ness level as the post they're replying to (or maybe just show in the posting ui, what the public-ness level of whatever i'm replying to is)

nonverbal, lack of accessibility, mh therapy 

mental health clinic: ok well set you up an appointment for a signing psychiatrist and a signing social worker since you can't speak

also that same mental health clinic: *calls me on the phone*

sign language+ 

the phone call interpreter complimented me on my sign language :)))

re: gentle parenting, social media, mh-

gentle parenting, social media, mh- 

sometimes a webbed site on the inter net will Serve Content about gentle parenting, and the comments are always like "don't be violent and/or constantly angry at your children!! or else they'll [insert short summary of my entire childhood here]"

this feels like such a basic 2nd grade math thing, but i just realized that:

5' = 150cm i.e A Short Person(tm)
6' = 180cm i.e A Tall Person(tm)

and because 4" = 10cm, i can quickly convert to metric (i.e conceptualize the height in my head) by remembering:

5'0" = 150cm
5'4" = 160cm
5'8" = 170cm
5'12" (6') = 180cm

amazing; incredible; i now finally have a cheat sheet and or some basic intuition for people's height expressed in ft'in"

autism, computer games 

games can be extremely frustrating to me because while they do use fixed sets of rules to determine everything, a lot of them don't actually TELL me what all those exact rules are, so i just have to guess and i always guess wrong and lose and get really frustrated

and like, if that's what i wanna do,, i can just go hang out with some neurotypicals instead

being in a big country and making a huge, days long, trip across it? that's some legendary ass epic shit right there

(sure, not every store had something i'd be willing to eat at every given moment, but there were just so many times when it did help.....)

re: food, israel sucks 

do you know how liberating it was for me to be able to go to a store and buy something approximating an actually relatively balanced dinner at 2 am??????

food, israel sucks 

man i wish israeli stores had single serving ready-to-eat foods. and i'm not even talking 7 11 level variety here, i'm talking,, just like,,, salads-that-aren't-really-salads and weird mayyonaisey sandwiches at the 24/7 cvs

re: -, living through historic times (tm) 

yet another side effect of landlords raising rents and pushing more and more people out to other cities and or the suburbs

-, living through historic times (tm) 

remember how the, like, one redeeming quality of tel aviv for me was all the things that are open 24/7?

well!!! it seems like the new fashion is those businesses being closed and having a "night shift employees wanted" sign posted on their door

fedi lore, shitpost 

whoa there buddy i'd be more careful with that clown face emoji if i were you! the fall of the snouts online empire happened because of a single one of those
