Karaoke Bar Where You're Forced To Sing Your Top Song From Spotify Wrapped. How Well Do You Perform It?

Lace Leaf Maple~ 🍁

This painting is inspired by the Japanese maples in my yard. After the rain, some leaves on the ground decay until there's only the veins left.

WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK ME ME ME ME ME ME

fanfiction is so awesome. some of the most brilliant writers youve ever met are writing the most crazy porn youve ever seen. does that not move you

Things cats were right about all along:

Fuck staying hydrated by drinking enough water - eat! more! wet! food! (watermelon, cucumbers, SOUP!)

Feels great to be really high up in your house where you can see the whole place (loft bed loft bed loft bed loft bed!)

Express yourself as clearly as possible when people are touching you and you don't want them to.

Optional, but you can also express yourself clearly when your people are not touching you and you want them to.

Sometimes it's important to just go "hmm. actually, I don't care" and wander off.

You don't have to be the strongest or toughest to defend yourself, it's enough to just be difficult enough to not be worth the trouble.

Ghosts will eventually leave if you stare at them for long enough.

I’m a patron of the arts (I leave nice comments on aO3).

The canonity of a ship is none of my business. That’s the authors problem, nothing to do with me

unpopular opinion but i think a ship that's not canon but both halves are canonically insane about each other is infinitely better than a ship that's canon and boring

Adding an extra point to a good list:

6. Small talk can be less emotionally draining. Speaking as an autistic person, emotionally connecting with people is difficult. It may look different to a neurotypical person’s needs but I still need or am required to do human interaction and talking about what someone got up to at the weekend takes a lot less spoons than discussing politics or health problems in my family

I'm trying to figure out a good way to say "you really should actually learn the basics of small talk" with sounding like I'm biased against autistic people.

Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.
