Thems fighten words. I don't smoke any churchwardens. Among pipe smokers, you're usually dealing with a particular type of socially tone deaf nerd when they smoke a churchwarden and start talking about pipe weed. You need to be at least 60 and fully grey to pull off a churchwarden.
Just a brief note. Today and this evening are going to be very busy for me. I don't have time to give your post the response it deserves and will do so later. Probably tomorrow.
I guess I see where you're coming from. Labels can hit different, especially when the label doesn't fit all the recipients. Being labeled can cause offense. Especially if it's derogatory. I don't think it was meant to be derogatory by op, but it certainly wasn't very sensitive.
The difficult part is that it's a spectrum. Especially when it comes to level of function. Profound autism is a totally different animal from high functioning people. And there is a whole spectrum of differences in how the divergency manifests between individuals.
Savantism and savant-like actions are fascinating to a lot of typicals, myself included. That level of focus and ability to make the connections or internally churn the information is not an accessible state for most of us. It's like seeing real magic.
(Obviously, not all neurodivergent folks have savant-like behaviors, most likely just a minority. No idea of the prevalence.)
So, a neurodivergent person inputting letters scraped from Tumblr posts into a genome search engine is funny as hell because it's such a strange thing to do and produces an interesting result. Why would someone do that? Why would you even think to do it in the first place?
My wife does absolutely hilarious shit all the time. Our house is full of laughter. She's wickedly sarcastic and full of black humor.
So, given that I think some of the behaviors are awesome while being hysterically funny, what is an inoffensive way to engage in humor about neurodivergent folks, in your opinion? Are there any preferred terms that are shorthand for: "Autistic person pulled some fucked up logic trick or other stunt"?
Ehh. IDK if that would be bad or good for Linux. More choices against the possibility of weaker teams/poorer code. Even if things did fragment for a while, one version likely comes out on top and everyone migrates slowly back together.
Interwebs and tech seems to route around this sort of thing.
I thought it was funny. I'm a typical. Have had several relationships with neurodivergent people, including my wife.
I do find a lot of the quirks funny or cute. Was just giving my girl shit about the Princess and the Pea because she is extremely particular about her pillow situation. The pillows and stuffies have names. That shit is funny and it makes me grin when I have to help sort the pile.
If it's true, it's likely socioeconomic. Relatively expensive start up cost, bag or tin of pipe tobacco usually costs more than a pack of cigarettes. Tends to select for wealthier users with better healthcare.
It's not inhaled so the cancer risk is lower than cigarettes. But, yeah, it's not healthy.
Howdy! Welcome to Lemmy! Thank you for responding.
I've never had a kidney stone and hope I never do. Paternal grandfather would get them.
You're a sick fuck. Probably be in good company here. I was up all night working on a presentation for our local BDSM community.
From what I know about sounding: Purchase quality stainless sounds. They should be passivated and have a high polish. They should be boiled for sterilization and you should use sterile lube. Go slow, they should slip in by their own weight, don't force them. Lot of guys get a whole lot of pleasure from them.
Personally, I have a double urethra. Two holes inside the slit of my cock. Like an over-under shotgun, if that makes sense. No way in hell I'm trying sounding. Have been cathed in the hospital, both tubes join into one somewhere back in there.
Hunter and have a small farm. My wife actually has more handguns than me. My primary use case for firearms is as tooling, but I totally understand the enjoyment from shooting sports and collecting.
I mean, I have a home server setup with 32 terabytes of NAS in a RAID 5 running the *Arrs and Jellyfin pulling from Usenet. Also running Calibre and paying for Anna's.
Like I told a friend that got huffy with me over how I do my sailing, "I been pirating since you had babyteeth."
You can be prickly if you want, but increased piracy is a symptom of a service problem. If Netflix hadn't gone to shit, I'd still be using it. I'm considering paying for Samsung's art subscription for my TV.
I will pay a reasonable price for convenient media. Make it difficult or expensive enough, and I'll sail the high seas. Time is money.
Until a man is twenty-five, he still thinks, every so often, that under the
right circumstances he could be the baddest motherfucker in the world. If I
moved to a martial-arts monastery in China and studied real hard for ten years.
if my family was wiped out by Colombian drug dealers and I swore myself to
revenge. If I got a fatal disease, had one year to live, devoted it to wiping
out street crime. If I just dropped out and devoted my life to being bad.
Hiro used to feel that way, too, but then he ran into Raven. In a way, this is
liberating. He no longer has to worry about trying to be the baddest
motherfucker in the world. The position is taken. The crowning touch, the one
thing that really puts true world-class badmotherfuckerdom totally out of reach,
of course, is the hydrogen bomb. If it wasn't for the hydrogen bomb, a man
could still aspire. Maybe find Raven's Achilles' heel. Sneak up, get a drop,
slip a mickey, pull a fast one. But Raven's nuclear umbrella kind of puts the
world title out of reach.
Which is okay. Sometimes it's all right just to be a little bad. To know your
limitations. Make do with what you've got.
I'm currently rebuilding a chicken coop into the Pig Dog Mojo Dojo Casa House, named by my wife. All three pigs and the dog are girls. Two of the piggies are violent lesbian lovers.

Sorry for your loss. FWIW, pipe smoke isn't inhaled and has much lower cancer rates than cigarette smoking. It's lower risk, not no risk.
