That commenter is definitely toxic but I think they are right here by definition.

It's clear that the US has absolute unlimited control within the area. Cuba cannot and/or will not contest the US within that area.

A little context; This began as American First Nations medical tech. Tobacco smoke enemas were used to treat a variety of conditions, including constipation, bowel obstruction, and colic. They eventually abandoned this because of the toxicity of nicotine. The drowning bit was a last resort treatment. We don't have any info on it ever working. As far as old medicine goes this isn't the biggest offender.

I reccomend you give Sekiro a try or watch a let's play. You clearly don't know what the game play looks like. Bosses should be hard but I never had to watch a video or read a guide to beat something in a souls like game.

Sekiro is a much better game than both Jedi Academy and DMC4. It is in no way slow or boring. My opinion and also the opinion of the majority of reviewers.

Every game you have mentioned enjoying involves a lot of hand holding. I get why you are not a fan of Fromsoft. You have a strong opinions but I assume it's just because you are likely older and jaded like myself. Nobody under 30 has played Jedi Knight/Academy.

That being said all of those games are very different from one another. Sekiro is a completely different beast. The only thing tying them together is above average difficulty that can be (mostly) alleviated by grinding.

You have to face that we aren't the target demographic anymore.

The prompt for the yearly review is "Are you safe from duo(the owl).

I only had 13 mistakes but I was not safe from duo somehow.

They really embraced the owl being a psychopath meme.

You are just looking to instigate. You will be ashamed one day of the vomit you post now. I wont feed the trolls.

I have been active for decades in support of LGBT rights. Your commentary here is poisonous enough to bother me. This is not the way.

Relatively few compared to his predecessors. Some real assholes on that list. It amazes me how Roger Stone isn't under the Jail.

Lil Wayne is on that list btw.

We will get to see is how they twist the presidential pardon this coming year.

Afaik a presidential pardon is strictly federal.

State cases and Civil cases are not covered.

I'm sure the supreme Court will Fix that.

They only need to make sure it's difficult enough the average user can't be bothered to figure out the workaround. I'm sure without looking they made a considerate sum from the neglected children market.

Ubisoft sells cosmetic stuff in their singleplayer games.

In all likelihood you will be too busy with the flooding, the heatwave, or the tornados.

People forget climate change is going to affect nearly every corner of society. There will be very little safe haven and overcrowding in those spared the most.

Being sociable ≠ Being annoying/creepy

That's all about intent. You gauge a response using body language. My gym has a racquetball court. I get asked to play all the time by random people. Be friendly and people will come to you. I had a problem with facial expressions growing up and I worked on mirroring. I mostly do it without thinking these days but it didn't start that way.

You can meet people at the gym. General rule is don't be disruptive.

I said ask someone out to coffee and they responded "who"? The implication was that they aren't exposed to a lot of people.

Hopefully seeing my "typical" advice will inspire someone to give it a try instead of just ignoring it as a neurotypical approach.

I'm just trying to spread advice on what worked for me. And I'm speaking in general whereas Nothing burger directly called me neurotypical with the intent to discredit my advice.

That being said I'm getting a little adgitated by some of the dms I have received.

Literally anyone you see regularly see. Make light eye contact and smile. After a couple times seeing the same person just try something simple:

" I see you here often. Do you know ______?"

A: Yes/ "Ya they have been coming here since _____. I started back in ________."

B: No/ "Oh, well I'm ________ it's a pleasure to meet you."

You are planting seeds of discourse. It makes you more approachable.

I have engaged you here in good faith so I'd appreciate the same in return.

Have a good day. I don't think I can achieve anything here over text.

Therapy and psychology is valid. There are plenty of providers that operate with a sliding scale and if you income is what I assume you will be free/low cost case.

You don't need to "cure" your autism. You just need to identify the parts of you that are more abrasive and manage them.

I hope you find what you are looking for, or at the least find someone to help you work on yourself.

Thank you for the well thought out reply. I understand what you are trying to say. The finances and time to pursue love can't just be snatched out of the ether. Do not lose hope and become bitter. The only advice I have left is that if you have trouble being the instigator then the kink community may introduce you to someone more forward.

I recommend not calling someone you exchanged two comments with neurotypical. It's quite rude and in this case outright wrong.

Since we are talking in circles refer to my first statement.

Ask someone out for coffee. (In case you are wondering the unwritten first rule is introduce yourself)

If you have someone like a therapist/counselor/psychologist. I reccomend you work with them to smooth your edges.

Get out of the house. Join some group activities. Enrich yourself. Make some friends.

If you are looking for a more specific example then try yoga or an exercise group like cycling. These kind of activities signal that you are looking to improve yourself and that is always a plus. Just remember not to leer and be polite.

It sounds like online dating is a boon to you. As far as your hobbies go you should try branching out into less male dominated ones. Sometimes you meet someone that you can spend time in each other's worlds but maintain your own as well. It sounds like you have some real barriers to overcome.
