  • I prefer that everything that touches my skin to be woven cotton. I don’t like tight clothes and wicking material is evil. Knit, polyester, or those sweat clothes that have a fuzzy inside are itchy and aggravating but wicking material is pure concentrated evil in physical form. What’s most comfortable is a tee and gym shorts. Jeans replace the gym shorts to go out. If I have to dress up I typically wear dress pants from a “work brand” like Dickies because they are a bit thicker and looser than most dress pants.



  • You remember the static that was on tv channels with no broadcast signal? That completely overwhelms my brain and pressure builds in the back of my head until it feels like it’s going to explode.

    Was diagnosed in kindergarten but parents didn’t want the stigma, the school said I was too high functioning for anything to be done, and it was small town Appalachia so the diagnosis just disappeared. I was diagnosed with Asperger’s in my early twenties. I imagine I’m a similar age to you based on when Asperger’s became a diagnosis.







  • Looks like spider mites. Mix 1 part 70% isopropyl alcohol to 3 parts water in a spray bottle and spray the plant once or twice a day. Make sure you get the underside of the leaves. The alcohol is a contact killer so it will probably take a few days to get rid of them. Give the plant a quick rinse with plain water before harvest. This is the method for herbs and vegetables. I don’t know if there are any differences for your particular plant.


  • That’s what they tell us anyway. What actually breeds innovation is giving people the opportunity to explore their own talents and pursue their interests from a place of stability. Things that interfere with that include tying healthcare to employment, allowing receiving healthcare to bury someone in debt, tying public education to local income levels, allowing pursuing higher education to bury someone in debt, inadequate public mental health services, allowing the minimum income for a full time employee to be below the amount required to meet basic needs for the average family, allowing work time for a full time employee to exceed a reasonable limit that would allow the employee to spend time with children, take care of their own health, and pursue hobbies and other interests.
