You know, I’m not autistic but sometimes people think I am because I’m blunt or something but really I’m just German

[what-even-is-thiss]

Something something about how other peoples cultural norms are often seen as some kind of disorder or something.

I mean my German-Russian/Scandinavian family is just straightforward and doesn’t show a lot of emotion because that’s what we do?

It’s like how in some cultures any eye contact at all is rude and those people have a difficult time adjusting to cultures where eye contact is expected.

Like armchair diagnosing people based on surface level behaviors is kind of rude also in my opinion.

I don’t care if I’m autistic or not. I mean I’m not, but it wouldn’t matter to me if I was. My point is that behavior outside of what you personally expect doesn’t necessarily mean anything about a person. And also maybe don’t armchair diagnose strangers on the internet.

Delighted to inform you that this quiz exists:

A rigorous diagnostic. 15 questions. One uncomfortable truth.

[what-even-is-thiss]

As I thought.

its kind of sad that bugs are so weak. it dishonors their noble biology. i guess this is is why crustaceans are so admirable. imagine for a moment, an unsquishable bug. such is the way of the crab

Best Bug Tourney Quarterfinals Poll 2

which is the best bug?

Cicada (Cicadoidea)

Euperipatoides rowelli

Voting ended onJun 25

Cicada propaganda:

[taken from the tags of their former poll]: I LOVE CICADAS I LOVE SCREAMING; VOTE CICADAS THEYRE LITERALLY BABIES; cicadas are the bugs that will outshine god, their cries are loud and beautiful, also nincada line is my favorite pokemon line and cain is my favorite ttrpg

Euperipatoides rowelli propaganda:

They hunt in packs like little 30-legged lions, and take down prey by shooting slime that quickly hardens. They have a complex social hierarchy within their pack. The dominant female eats first, and then the other females eat before the males. Also, they are ovoviviparous, have two uteri, and can have different aged embryos in them at the same time. They're the most studied velvet worm, so some of their behavior might apply to other species, but we can't say for sure.

You guys know the drill (GO MY MINIONS)

The opponent is also a very funky looking bug and I quite like it. I would not be upset if we lost to it this round.

[hawkpartys]
