@clearautism.bsky.social Sending this here because I don't want to reply to that thread and grab that woman's attention again. But after two days of her insisting they're using the r word to mean "slowing down" and me saying I've never seen anyone use it that way, and I see this in a doco today...

When the date is going well.

It is 11pm on New Year's Eve, I have a heatpack on my fucked arm, a book of essays about the Peanuts comic strips, and I'm watching a YouTube video called "Nara Park Quiet Morning Walk with Sacred Deer 4K" Life ain't so heck.

Spoiled baby gets towel dried after cruelly being forced to pee in the rain

I'm tired and I want to go to bed but little Roman Reigns is asleep next to me, curled up like a lil bean boi, with a lil smile on his face. I can't bring myself to wake him up to put him to bed, so I guess I'm staying up until he wakes up.

I commented "I want to die" on Facebook, regarding my Kindle's screen protector having dog hair in it, and now Facebook wont stop giving me a pop up telling me not to kill myself

I decided to try building Ancestry tree again. Still overwhelmed by it and confused by trying to fact check, so I picked someone with a fairly unique name - Septimus. I cannot for the life of me find out when Septimus died and it's made me so angry I've had to go lie down.

Disaster has struck. Last week I put a screen protector on my Kindle. I did it *perfectly* with no bubbles, nothing. Today, I'm reading, and I noticed something. "No, it can't be", I thought. I turned the page. Still there. Panicked, I turned dark mode on, and my worst fears were confirmed.

I feel like a lot of the time people think something has to be a technical masterpiece in order to be "good", and they don't count games/movies that they enjoyed, but that aren't cinematic genius, as "good".

I have two beautiful sleepy beagle boys and I am very lucky.

Roman Reigns has taken to howling at me for his breakfast.

Decided to give this Ancestry thing another go, realised I am not mature enough to when I found out Im related to Ann Blew, who died in Cockermouth.

Excuse my annoying voice and the messy house but how cute are these boys getting their breakfast this morning? Lego's excited spins, and Roman's polite sit, then scooch back to make room for his bowl. Lil angels.

A Current Affair explaining 6-7 while Roman licks my head. What a Christmas.

Google Photos be like "we made you a collage" and it's just six photos of Lego sleeping.

DOGS IN ANTLERS! DOGS IN ANTLERS! DOGS IN ANTLERS!

Making everyone watch puppies opening presents

My sister who lives in the UK just gave me my Christmas present of a flight to London at the time of my choosing. So I guess I gotta come up with things to do in the UK?

HES DOING WITCHCRAFT ON CHRISTMAS!! (also just after I took this photo he grabbed the toy and dropped it so it was closed and I guess I'm not allowed to read his spellbooks?)

fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck

One of the first photos I saw of puppy Roman Reigns on the right, vs him today on the left.

Second page done! I've been introduced to many new creatures and absolutely love it Im super glad I decided to do this, I wanted to see if I could still draw and that I can do it (iykyk) and Honestly, it's been very satisfying 😌

Crunchyroll really has some great recommendations

Lego has the softest, thickest ears, and the best part of my day is when he lets me pet em (until he gets annoyed anyway)

I just learned that people from Liverpool, on top of being called Liverpuddlians, are also called Scousers. Why do they get TWO great names and all I get is Reginan?

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

Tonight’s Wikipedia dive is about cotton swabs and I’m thrilled to report that their original name was “Baby Gays”

Thank god they wrote "image depicts flavour" so that I'm aware that my ice cream will not contain fox

I sleep with a knife under my pillow in case someone with assorted meats and cheeses breaks in and needs to make a charcuterie board

Just to clarify I absolutely was not lying about what my supplies entail.

This is why I don't go to the supermarket - apart from the whole "setting off my PTSD" shit, but I also go "I should start making smoothies again" and then realise I have no idea what smoothie stuff I have already at home or how to make smoothies properly

*aggressively hums "we're in the money"*

I'm an idiot who didn't realise I was running out of supplies (I say supplies because calling it food would be incorrect - it's bottles of Coke, breakfast cereal, and biscuits) now I'm stuck at the supermarket on Christmas Eve Eve. Question: should I get 2L of iced coffee to consume by tomorrow?

Watching a storm approach and Roman still taking his sweetarse time trying to find a spot to pee

The process by which the Kennedy Center was renamed to honor Trump was about as bad as you assumed donmoynihan.substack.com/p/purge-merg...

I got a letter telling me I might be summoned for jury duty. At the top it has a URL for their website, then bold text saying "please do not send emails to this address" The fact that they had to write that under a URL makes me worry about the type of people we have on juries...

I made some popcorn and then suddenly lil Roman appears to beg through my fan at me.

Anyone got any advice for stopping my glasses from sliding down my nose? They don't have the rubber nose pads, they're plastic frames. I dunno why they feel so loose lately but they keep sliding down my face and I'm ready to snap em

There's not many things more adorable than lil Roman Reigns' tail wagging when he's trying to play with lizards.

Fuck yeah.

Going into 2026, a reminder for everyone who's fallen off the creative wagon, game dev, writing, art, music, whatever, no matter how long:

I legitimately thought this was satire when I first saw it.

I hadn't had Cena match spoiled but I had seen someone say they disliked the finish. I just finished it, and I had no issues with the finish?? To me his face was saying "y'know what? I'm too old for this, you win" and gently tapping out. He quit the match on his own terms, like he did his career

Home (safe) after being in Sydney all day for Pokemon Go City Safari. Got home to the news of the mass shooting in Bondi. I've now sat down to watch John Cena's last match. I wanted to post about it as I watch but doing that right now feels so... insignificant? Unimportant?
