  • People assume I’m making my conditions up, despite going through medical procedures at various times in my life.

    One aspect of my autism is I don’t react to pain in the same way as other people, so when I am going through considerable pain I’d push on whilst maybe making a casual comment that my back hurts a fair bit due to my discs, however I’d say this without pain being expressed in my speech.

    There’s also the situation where for extreme pains, the only reason I can get out of bed on some days is due to cannabis (for which I’m legally prescribed it). However due to my lack of reaction, people find it hard to believe I have a fair number of health issues when they see me just getting on with things.
    Once it took an ex an hour of convincing before she took me for an x ray, for a broken toe, because I was just walking around with a limp, saying I’m sure I broke it (all casually).





  • (This is a serious question)

    Are Pixelfed communities generally accepting of cannabis related content, or is that seen as a no go on most servers/connections made with an account?
    I recently started using Instagram again here and there because of cannabis related communities and such, which they seem rather relaxed with at the moment (just to connect with folks), and a transition could start for me granted there is an opportunity for sensible cannabis communities to exist - I’m a medical user and it has to be a part of my life due to the required usage for my conditions, I hope this is understandable.

    Regardless of if the answer to my query isn’t favourable to me, I hope this platform expands and continues to gather a larger userbase.




  • Their fault. I remember a time when publishers allowed for people to run their own dedicated servers, for FPS at least. They could have modified that existing model, but instead they took that ability away from the user whilst almost simultaneously making excuses about the problem they created.

    If their servers can’t run forever, give us dedicated servers on a larger scale FFS!






  • Once when we were studying in biology class, when I was maybe 14 or 15, the teacher leaves the room and comes back with this sort of telly on the wheelie stand thing; he was trying to surprise us with an educational distraction from textbooks and, it was good on paper.

    He must have forgotten to rewind the VHS or something, of a nature documentary, and the entire class got an immediate scene of two wildebeast trying to repopulate the Savannah by themselves.

    I mean it did work, since it was a great distraction whilst he frantically Goku punched the Stop button as fast as he could, before pressing rewind.
