    Mixing Random Foods

    Yes. My mother loved it. I always thought it was really weird, but I tried it a few times. It's a whole new taste and not what I imagined it to be. I liked it, but not enough to make it an intended dish. I do, however have cantaloupe in a meal quite often.

    Self loathing.

    I have felt that my entire life. I am often conflicted when I see absolutely no benefit to my life while knowing that my work experience has been beneficial, but for some reason that never seems to nullify my feeling of worthlessness. I have been suicidal all my life, feeling that being in a...

    Animal Facts that are surprising/amazing/weird

    I wrote the above last year. Since then, I have found that information on Google about animals (and many other things) are quite wrong. For example, Google says that skunks are solitary animals. The skunks in my yard are not at all solitary. There is another skunk family that lives across the...

    Is the rise in autism a sign of a human evolutionary process?

    Study Traces Autism's Origin to The Rise of Human Intelligence About the rise in autism rates; it is my direct observation that the rise is due to diagnosis rate - not the actual, real rate. For example: I was diagnosed as retarded. That is because no one in my family, school, community or...

    Do you believe there's extraterrestrial life out there?

    I very strongly believe there is plenty of intelligent life in the universe and probably plenty not all that far away. However, there is a lot more to that story! I believe there are a lot of reasons we haven't "communicated" with or found any "intelligent" life yet. And I suspect we may...

    The misinformation becomes deeper.

    A theory is also based on mechanism of action. Or at least should be.

    Peaches Survey!

    Peaches and onions are a delicious way to prevent yellow spotted lizard bites. Well, that's according to Sam and Kissing Kate in the movie "Holes". :) I just love that movie. Can't get enough. https://movies.disney.com/holes

    Aspergers Reality Hidden

    My greatest issue is social anxiety. I can't take much. For me, it is crippling. And yes, too much of it can induce enough anxiety to make me sick. However, if I am left alone, I'm fine. I guess that is fine in my view, but if I'm alone, my view is all that counts. :) Therefore, I cannot have a...

    autistic, queer, software engineer, mom, wife

    Yes, he was the best boss I ever had. He was friendly, but totally practical and logical. Not inhibited by ego. He would listen and would never dismiss out of opinion. Always open to new ideas. And best of all - he got my sense of humor!

    Peaches Survey!

    Yes, I love fresh peaches. I also love a good peach pie, but my dietary restriction forbids it. No cheating, not even a little bit else severe reactions.

    autistic, queer, software engineer, mom, wife

    I realized the "real" reason he did that when he did it. Rest assured it was not out of the goodness of his heart. He did not do it to be "nice". He did it because he runs a business, and businesses do what needs to be done to make money - revenue. Many of the customers expressed that they...
