So somebody on YouTube comments called me “zipper-tits”. Like…new slurr I guess I just learned. Also very inaccurate lol. I’m more like a teddy bear or jacket after my heart surgery? But maybe one day! I’m laughing so hard.
My sister legit tried to sell me on trickle down economics while trying to say it wasn’t trickle down economics at lunch today. Painfully laughing. Tried to say I wasn’t “listening”. She acted like she was the one making millions and billions as a business owner. She isn’t. She kept saying they should be taxed less because she doesn’t wanna pay more in groceries because “of course they would never absorb the cost!”. I told her a out Costco…she did not believe me. Even tried to compare prices to Sam’s and she just stopped talking.
"Autistic traits" is a much better way to describe what autistic people tend to do/be than language like "symptoms"
A lot of clinicians seem to think that if patients don't come back they got better🤦♀️...when you are chronically ill, just getting care & explaining your complex medical history is *exhausting*...plus having to fight to be believed that your symptoms are real is *excruciating.*
So I haven’t mentioned this explicitly, but I have Turner syndrome. I essentially have a genetic mutation where I do not have two complete X chromosomes, or irregular X chromosome presentation etc. it is why I have hearing loss and a heart condition and much more. But I am researching, as I do, and I’m getting into the psychology of people with Turner syndrome. I am just internally screaming at all the realizations and as I read about it I was thinking “this kinda sounds a lot like ADHD and/or Autism. Then farther down it’s like “other behaviors similar to autism” and I’m like…well at least I was on the right tract. Also again screaming. One big call out.
I love when I watch anime and it brings me so much joy…it’s like an old feeling coming back.
New Year’s goals (besides surviving college and graduating):
