I love when I am trying to have a peaceful Minecraft experience on play.armorup.ca and then get jumped by two people in full netherite who repeatedly spawn kill me and take my money 😭

@Strangelet @actuallyautistic Yes! Exactly! It's a combination of the humidity and temperature.

@actuallyautistic #actuallyautistic Think I’ve finally gotten to the bottom of my heat intolerance. This afternoon I walked outside and said “it’s so nice today!” and my dad responded “what? No it’s not, it’s hot out here”. Little did I realize the humidity is only 42% today. Looks like it’s humidity intolerance more than it is heat intolerance lol. 82°F with no humidity feels like a spring day to me. But 82°F with 65% humidity feels like the surface of the sun.

@janisf @actuallyautistic I've noticed my heat intolerance get worse as I've gotten older. Not sure if I could deal with it better as a child because I hadn't hit the "you sweat with the smallest amount of effort" part of puberty yet, or because I didn't have extra demands in my life.

@janisf @actuallyautistic I think that’s a valid point, and one big reason why I might be perceived as “whiny and complaining”. I’m not super good at hiding my heat intolerance, so maybe it gives the appearance that I’m making a mountain out of a molehill even though I think my behavior matches my internal feelings…idk. Need to do more research on this lol.

@janisf @actuallyautistic It’s easier for me to cope with it at home, because we have AC and I can blast my ceiling fan and other fans to control the temperature in my bedroom.

70° is usually the threshold temp for me before I start to get too hot, and I think it’s interesting that it’s also the general cutoff temp for sleeping comfortably. I am very interested in studies on heat tolerance in general, and what other people consider “comfortable” compared to autistics.

@actuallyautistic #actuallyautistic I am officially done. I don’t know how people actually enjoy summer, ESPECIALLY with no AC. “85°F is such a nice temp,” just say you enjoy suffering 😭

But no, if I as much as utter a peep about how I’m miserable and overstimulated, suddenly I’m whining, complaining, a primadonna, and “oh so sensitive” about the heat that everyone is SUDDENLY suffering from at the same level as me.

Still can’t ever win.

@actuallyautistic #actuallyautistic One thing I’ve always struggled with is being made fun of for not singing during worship, or not being comfortable with public prayer. Knowing that these things are part of my autism, and not only are acceptable but just as honoring to God has improved my self-image tenfold. I would just like to encourage fellow autistic Christians on here that you shouldn’t let ANYONE tell you that your worship isn’t valid. Last time I checked, the haters aren’t God!
