    Does Clickbait Work?

    And I thought you were posting something about fishing. Really. This is a click bait lure. 🤷‍♀️

    RIP: Robert Redford 1936-2025

    1984 or 1985. Not certain for sure. Just one afternoon. Been a long time ago. I was in my early twenties. Indecent Proposal, ( looked the release date up), was 1993. He looked much like he did in that film. The look I remember.

    Aspergers Reality Hidden

    Mankind will evolve into more superhuman consciousness, even though the current picture of "Now" doesn't look that way. It is a slow process. Slow by the human time concept anyway. I agree that Asperger's/Autistic people are different in how we perceive and understand the world and ways of...

    Anyone on benzos?

    Prozac is the antidepressant I took, and it numbed my brain. My ability to think quickly or feel natural was lost. It didn't help with anxiety either. I stopped taking them after a few months. Thankfully the numbed sensation went away quickly with no withdrawal symptoms. I've taken benzos...

    The variety of internalised meltdown

    No. 1 is a common one for me when alone. No. 2 I learned to do quite often when I started living with a companion. When I lived with my parents, I just had full blown meltdowns and panic attacks. Then when I lost them and started living with a companion/roomie, I knew I had to internalize them...

    How time does fly. I spent a lovely afternoon on a private beach in Florida with him just about the time Indecent Proposal came out. I was doing a modeling gig. He was a gentleman. Shocked to hear the news today. Seems like yesterday in my memory. RIP

    Loneliness and nothing else...

    I'm thinking the same as @the_tortoise , autism specific. If you could find someone that is very much like yourself. I never had interest in friends or even romantic relationships that last. Never felt the need for marriage or family. My life was complete as long as I had my parents...

    i seem to keep coming back lol

    I remember you and 'welcome back!' Time and life get away so fast without us realizing it, I know. Days slip away before I reply to an e-mail, phone message or checking in on what's happening here too. I have a lot of health problems and stuff going on in life. It's complicated. I've been...

    Hello

    Welcome to the forums @arizguy . Hope being here amongst others will help you find self- acceptance. I'm a late in life diagnosed also. Mid-fifties and now 68. It was liberating for me to learn all about it. I'm more like @Outdated posted. Knew I was weird all my life also, just didn't bother...

    Is a toaster oven worth it?

    I never use my toaster oven for anything except what it implies, to toast and heat mainly breads. If the one you are thinking about is anything like mine, it would not cook raw meats to the point of safety without making them too hard and tough. Some pre-cooked meats or bacon can be cooked in a...

    Heavy render and variations

    Yes, it made me think of space. Like maybe that comet or whatever thing that's coming into the solar system. ☄️ I like the first one best and then the one with the lake effect. They are all really cool and I'd have no idea how to make them. 😐

    I am having two MRI's Today. One with Gadolinium Contrast.

    I've had more MRIs and CT scans than I can count due to liver cancer in 2009. Gadolinium contrast never made me feel anything. I just don't like the IV insertion. The only thing now, after the removal of half the liver, the doctors won't give an MRI with contrast to me. They say the clearance...
