A Small Creature Stands In Your Path

She begins to exhibit her fractured online presence by showing you everything from nice photos and silly comics to a sometimes morose blog, tweeting randomly at you as you pass.

i don’t think people understand how much of life is grief. not just people dying, but losing the version of yourself you thought you’d become. grieving the city you had to leave. the friends you lost not in argument, but in silence. the summer that will never come back. the feeling that maybe you peaked at 12 when you were reading books under the covers and believing in forever

Whenever you find a random piece of glitter stuck to you out of the blue? You’ve been visited by Carrie Fisher and she spared you from some bullshit.

[elbomac]

Fuck, what a beautiful thought.

What kind of man would put a known criminal in charge of a major branch of government? Apart from, say, the average voter.

That's awesome.

It might also be the clearest evidence I've ever seen for a theory I read a while back that a lot of American Southern accents are Scottish and Irish accents that have been slowed down.

HR will need to hear about this

[lyndanaclerio]

So...yeah. That was my day. First time I’ve drawn comics since last March. I am taking questions.

[lyndanaclerio]

The first half of Hourly Comic Day 2023. I am taking questions. I have missed drawing! I did all this in Infinite Painter on my phone with my finger as events were happening. Otherwise this wouldn’t have happened. But this was fun.

The I Spy live action adaption looks great

[thathopeyetlives]

This is pretty cool compared to many rube goldbergs for reasons including: 

- the amount of YEET

- Clever use of magnets and physics

- Re-use of sections that play multiple purposes or have reentrancy.

My NT friend: doesn’t this silence bother u

Me, autistic: are u telling me u can’t hear this incredibly loud fridge

[autisticeducator]

The lights have sound

Electronics have sound

Appliances have sound

If electricity runs through it, it has sound.

Rarely is there actual silence (and that does bother me due to lack of sensory input).

This is why the barn uses me when they think the horses are reacting to a noise they can’t hear. I’ll likely find it (it’s usually the heating or the electrical box in the indoor).

I also know when the electric fences are on.

[wetwareproblem]

For years I was convinced that I was either hallucinating or had hearing damage, because electronics always made this high-pitched whine that was closer to being felt than heard, and nobody else knew what I was talking about. Then I met other autistic people.

[master-biomancer]

Always always always! It was worse when there were those big TV monitors all around instead of flatscreens, but fridges and shit, always.

[aurumsystem]

wait people don’t normally hear the lights?

[missmitchieg]

Nope!

[alexseanchai]

I don’t know if it’s that NT people can’t hear the things or if NT people can and do tune out the things thoroughly enough never to consciously notice either the things or the tuning out

[houseboatmac]

it’s NT people tuning it out. Part of the issue with ND people is that the brain is basically bombarded with input, all the time, and there’s a significant amount of energy put into filtering. If the filter is borked then you get “THE FRIDGE IS LOUD” instead of “This person’s face is doing a Thing”

...My family got an ultrasonic pest repellent in the ‘80s and I could hear it. I’m sorry, I’m always gobsmacked when I find my people.

Every year my mom vandalizes a reflection calendar with pictures of Keanu to make a “with Keanu” calendar for her friend. These are some highlights:
