Dude appreciates a nice sconce

It just needs to be warm lighting. Any cool color lightbulbs don’t belong inside a house (unless it’s a workbench or something)

who the fuck invented strong overhead lighting

Well, in the beginning...

Imma corner you in the store and try to talk to you.

This should be a bannable offense

Please go find a corner to sit in and think about what you have done.

especially if it spins with the fan

For when you want to recreate the cozy feeling of getting flashbanged

But WHY

Cheap Chinese housefire bulbs

Yes, the neuotypicals use the light as a weapon against us, we must rise up and usher in a new era of comfortable semi-darknesss

My wife has finally learned that I'm ok with overhead lightning, but it can't be at 100% it actually makes my eyes hurt at max intensity. I'm also a ginger and recently learned we apparently tend to have sensitivities to light as well. I never stood a chance lol

(psst: widely known, in case it's not just an autocorrect fluke)

ND people are cave dwelling creatures that have evolved in the total absence of light. Turning on the ceiling light will blind and disorient the ND.

Neurotypicals for some reason think the main light is ok to use.

A lot of ND folks have some specific sensory issue that overstimulates them, and overhead lights are a common visual one. (A common auditory one might be ambient noise like traffic, and a tactile one might be the feeling of certain fabrics on their skin).

It's very common for autistic people to feel uncomfortable in artificial overhead lighting. Natural light from windows, lamps, or no light at all is often preferred.

I will say though that new phones NEED to start including the LED indicator. I actually hate how I can't just glance at my phone and tell if I have a voicemail, text message, missed call, and/or email waiting. Now I have to pick the thing up, turn on the screen, look at what it is, and actively choose to ignore it.

It's a lot more work.

I know they're terrible and gon for a good reason.... But.

I miss old school lights. I remember as a kid, around town in the winter. Pitch black at 6pm. -20f, absolutely still air. All you can hear is the hum of the sodium lights. Just the warmest red/orange light.

I'm probably just an old man reminiscing, but the world won't produce temperatures, light, or silence like that anymore. Now it's just the harshest led lights, a million beeps, and half heard music on shit ass speakers.
