I'm pretty comfortable with it since there's no god to be afraid of. It's the people who believe in god that have to avoid pissing him off by not having a good enough reason to call him, or something.

If anything, it's a little bit transgressive and that's fun.

Thank you. Learning how autism effects me has been some relief.

This is more or less me too.

"Jewish themes"...like in the Bible?

I had a similar experience and I dropped out of high school at 14 for a GED because I couldn't handle it another day. And then college at 22. And then another university at 31. Now I still struggle with the most basic things because I'm only just figuring out why I didn't get to learn how to deal with trying to exist growing up. It's very hard and as an adult there's even less help. I'm very lucky to have an understanding partner and a good therapist because I have no other friends or family and I spiral often. If only someone had told me as a kid, I can't say I'd be that much different now, but at least I wouldn't be spending so much energy on trying to figure out what all went wrong back then and maybe I'd have some skills that makes functioning or communicating a little easier.

I did the same but I have thin, straight hair and there was not much, if any, transition before it got better. I've only used conditioner for about ten years now.

As a kid I had the Dinotopia audiodrama tapes and my family would get old radio shows like Jack Benny from the CrackerBarrel store on road trips.

Grooming can happen to anyone. It's like long term incremental manipulation.

Adrienne is great. She's how I learned and I've been at it daily for years now.

They probably tried to sign up on beehaw which has three questions about your intentions. I'm sure there's others but I think beehaw is the biggest with an application.

I struggle with feeling like I can contribute but I definitely feel more capable here than I ever did on Reddit.
