My grandpas on both sides of the family had done genealogy research before they died, and learned much about our past. Some of this has been passed down to me.
On my moms dads side, it goes all the way back to Erik the Red, the notorious Viking. Between him and his son Lief Erikson (or Lief the...
So I love writing and want to do more of it. There is so much to consider though. I don't think I will stick with only one theme, but rather I may bounce from topic to topic. Here are some ideas I've been thinking of:
My background, such as challenges faced and being neglected / abused as a...
Agnetha closes her eyes and FlyingKiwifruit stops. She is there and she studies the full situation. "You are a ass-kisser" Morphios says. "Say it again, louder" FlyingKiwifruit thinks and Morphios stops. Agnetha makes FlyingKiwifruit fully there. Agnetha hears what she said. "Am I?"...
"Someone. Just someone" Agnetha says. Hashius and the shadow walks to the castle. "Right, one of us stay here" Hashius orders and suddenly they both are in the castle. "Wheres the weapons chamber?" the man asks. "No idea" Hashius replies. "Okay. You find the animals. We find the weapons" the man...
A image of Agnetha appears. "We have a cautionary tale to tell. Don't worry, you must listen to it. It might make you shiver in your bones but its important to learn. I wonder what you might learn from it, wait, you will have to wait and see wont you? Or why don't you read it?" Agnetha mentions...
So it is probably no surprise to most members here that I reach out to people a lot.
I message people, write things in profile pages, extend well wishes or birthday wishes and click the like buttons a lot.
Over the years I have read many statements by fellow aspies expressing suspicion when...
I never did a blog before. It seems like a public diary?
I'm putting this here for random musings in a hopefully obscure place.
I'm waiting for something to change, the season foremost. I detest the heat and yet live in a place with no snow. I have always felt like a winter creature, best...
the last few days and weeks my suicide considerations ( or at least a wish for a period of unconsciousness ) have ended in me like several times before doing the "lesser evile" that's something that is either destruktiv or that i didn't feel justified to do befor; like buying something...
Nal got me this:
I had been wanting to get it for SO LONG, but it was a bit pricey, and it's a bit hard to find in stores, so I kept waiting on it.
We are big on games- but picky about them. It's difficult to find ones that are challenging, unique, fun, a little different every time and...
I am experiencing this odd sense of loss lately.
I have this feeling now and again; it is a little different every time.
I play with it for a while and relearn the feeling in my hands. It's malleable and hard... and I can breathe it. Bathe in it and soak it through my skin.
Now it's dry...
A BROUHAHA grabs a can of beer and sits on a log. "So, as they say, the best things in life are the 70s music" Wab says. Agnetha grabs a magazine and reads it. "Brilliant. But the best pop comes from the early 80s" Aurora replies. "Most definatly" Wab says. "As they all say, the best thing...
Just thought I would start something New- a BLOG diary-
It may prove useful to perhaps motivate me to complete it daily.(or as frequently life allows)------I have tried keeping Diaries in the past-I usually don't keep them going. Anyway the thought of Diaries makes me a bit angry/depressed and...
I won't quote the post that spurred this entry--or the approving(!) follow-up, but I have to say: we aspies can easily earn a reputation for cruelty, smallness, or indifference all too easily. Having a social deficit is no excuse for mocking other disabilities; the first is a given, but the...
Over the years I have been asked a similar line of questions a good number of times, things like how were things over there, did you do anything you regret, did anything bad happen etc. Most would consider this a strange line of questions, but for a Soldier coming back from Afghanistan this was...
Previously: if a person is a person through other people, what happens when a person is substantially different from other people? How different can you be, and still be human? What is it I see that determines whether I greet you, flee you, or kill you?
EDIT: Related to The Social Model and...
