Narrator: “Life could, in fact, throw many more curveballs.”
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the most dangerous ideology in the world and what makes it dangerous?28·1 month agoI think any idea is worth listening to, it’s the assertion that we must inherently accept their viewpoint as valid that is outright absurd.

Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•This is unironically true -- being forced into a car-centric mindset makes monsters out of most peopleEnglish8·1 month agoThe majority of human history has shown us that no, in fact, walking does not inherently make you kinder.
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Funny: Home of the Haha@lemmy.world•"You will need this". He did not need this8·1 month agoMan… people can barely read my writing when I don’t use cursive. Might as well be scribbles on the page if I use cursive. I learned to write with a half-cast on my writing hand though, so it was a rough go of it in general.
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It's true that autistic people have the brain/mind of a child even when they are older?2·2 months agoAh that’s fair, I appreciate your straightforwardness. I am definitely going to educate myself further on this. The human brain is fucking wild.
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It's true that autistic people have the brain/mind of a child even when they are older?7·2 months agoIt kind of degrades my respect and trust for this community. The fact that we need a completely different subreddit so people can try to educate themselves on sensitive subjects is pretty sad. I’d get it if this guy was asking in bad faith, but it seems like a sincere question.
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It's true that autistic people have the brain/mind of a child even when they are older?7·2 months agoHow do we know anything? I spend a lot of time around him, observed his behaviors and interactions with the world, and have taken away that he is more capable than some people understand. I’m not making a general observation, just a personal one, hence why I am asking for further studies to imperically show me the general data.
As a bit of a rant, what you’ve said is pretty silly in any context. Are you telling me body language and physical interaction are not inherent forms of communication? We evolved and worked together for millions of years without spoken word.
Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•It's true that autistic people have the brain/mind of a child even when they are older?8·2 months agoI’m actually very fascinated by this, but you seem to have forgotten your context. I have a severely autistic brother in law with down syndrome. He’s non-verbal but definitely comprehends much of what is going on around him beyond how a child reacts to the world. Can you tell me where to read more about this? Honestly, I’m not sure what I would google to find this study.

Beardsley@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some obvious or not so obvious silver linings of Trump's disastrous policies? if any13·2 months agoPeople will feel the economic impact like a freight train here pretty soon, and hopefully that pisses off the idiot cult enough to make them turn on the republican party. They might not ever turn on trump, but I think his base will turn on the party quick once they start to really struggle. Then maybe we can rebuild some of this madness, invest in science and education, and have a reasonably well educated populas; and then maybe fascism will die.
Most likely wishful thinking. I’ve lived long enough to see my political efforts fall completely flat or get reversed outright. The people who share my viewpoints either can’t be bothered, for some fucking crazy reason, or insist to “play by the rules”. Fuck the rules, they don’t play by the rules. It’s time to get a fucking spine and fight back, but we’ve been given too much bread and too many circuses, so much that at least half of us would rather collapse society than share or take less.
We are vain, narcissistic, horrible little parasites that feel entitled to impose our will how we see fit. Yes, at the moment I mean this strongly about Myself and fellow Americans, but this disaster is far from unique to us. Countless species extinct, counteless lives taken, countless pain inflicted. Human beings are the apex invasive species, and there is no one at all to put us into check. It’s hard to feel like any of this is undeserved, and it’s foolish to think we deserve anything at all.
I generally try to be positive, and you can save your fingers from debating with me. I just don’t care anymore. We could kill ourselves tomorrow and I would only feel relief for the life that will thrive without us fucking it all up. Fuck every last one of us.
Lololol all good, my friend.
The joke is that I have oversimplified the context.
He is very unobservant.
IF YOU’RE A GOOSE, IM A GOOSE.
Haha yeah, literally my best friend of 20+ years. Wild as fuck.
LMAO I grew up with that guy.
Well yeah, agreed, stark differences can be scary and difficult for children to comprehend without some explaination. But this tool a full-ass adult person who knows full-well the wallowed weight of that woefully wretched word.
There’s a mistake and there’s being a piece of shit. He smells is all I’m saying.
