Well, that doesn't matter for blåhaj, which disables downvotes, at least

I just want to point out that Greta Thunberg is 22 years old. She's been an adult for 4 years now

That's the thing, it's not an established console line

And also, half of Wii U sales is fucking massive. Yes the Wii U was considered a failure, but it was still well known

The bigger issue is nukes I think. You cannot overthrow a regime militarily these days, countries have simply a tool that is far too destructive to realistically risk it

A loooot of the research necessary to make our cutting edge chips still comes from academia

Frankly at this point self-diagnosis shouldn't be as demonized as it is. Because getting a diagnosis is, 1. Expensive, 2. Involved as all hell sometimes, 3. Not all professionals being great, and 4. In certain countries cough the US cough, it gets you literally put on a list

I say this as someone who is diagnosed. Just preface any statements you make with you not being professionally diagnosed and that you think you might likely have it and such, and you should be fine. Ultimately the point of the diagnosis is to help you. If you feel like the autistic framework is useful to understanding yourself, use it.

That's all well and good in theory, and sure, it's something a doctor says

But a lot of the time I've just found that they just don't know what they're talking about, thus indirectly contributing to the stigma by making it seem like it's just "our fault" yet again

I'd love for nothing more than for me to fix my life. Hell, I've been trying my whole life. I've been putting such a great burden on myself I've burned myself out completely. It's far from as simple as that

Sorry, it's not directed at you, I've just seen these influencers pop up here and there and they annoy me, especially by their know-it-all attitude

Tin is a pretty rare metal, so I doubt it makes much sense to make much out of it if you can use something else like aluminium or plastics imstead

Except it would still have severe consequences if it's intelligence. Especially if it may label the person as a traitor

I think nature-y names are awesome, personally

...I'm not biased or anything because of my chosen name, nooooo

Many names have meanings similar to that, and yet they're names. I don't think a name such as khaleesi is inherently bad

Like how trauma literally changes the physical structure of your brain

Since trauma is just all "in your head", after all, right? And yet, it causes physical changes to your body. How else does one explain it if not that mental health and physical health are deeply linked?
