  • Briar, SimpleX, I2Pchat on desktop, maybe LXMF/Reticulum/Sideband over I2P if you want to get techy.

  • If only the intense interest even lasted over 2 years.

    (Tea, historical flutes, opera, treasure hunting/metal detecting, BJDs, woodwind maintenance & repair, Meshtastic/Meshcore/Reticulum radio, 3D printing/modeling/CNC)

  • Cool, but admit it, you shared it (and I read it) because of that title that someone had way too much fun writing.

  • People knowing when they die at the latest will probably mean more than it being 50. At some point after abt 45 life becomes either (finances allowing) a hedonistic spree, gracefully putting your affairs in order, and/or an anxious nightmare watching the hours tick by. Not sure if people will come together enough to demand a kind of pension to allow for a year or two of calm for that, but anyone that can, will take ot anyway.

    People will focus on their health a little less when there's no time for many lifestyle-related illnesses to manifest.

    The speed of scientific development slows. People have less time to learn, experiment, and mentor the next generation.

  • Not always... After the tests I was considered to be "broader autism phenotype", some obvious traits but neurotypical, until after about a year and no further testing the same psychiatrist decided that yes there were enough met criteria and set a diagnosis. 🤷‍♂️

    Then again the "some obvious traits" was enough to gain the self-understanding, just I didn't dare access peer support.

  • Of course. And every eraser. Even after I'd long since learned that it's a bad idea. But that moment of the snap is so satisfying.

  • Acorns in brick wall venting holes, pencil tips in softwood desks, toothpicks in toys...

  • I got diagnosed at 45. Dear god it was a relief to find out there's a neurological reason why being forced to/forcing myself to clean my spaces was something I did with massive effort, in tears, through the power of self-hatred, for the first 25-30 years of my life.

    Also so much getting things stuck in other things.

  • I sold "the chair" about half a year ago. Now they take up half the sofa & some floor by the bed.

  • Tomato Europe vs Potato Europe.

  • A waffle iron would equally be unwise.

  • The Nordic model is a capitalist one.
