living alone vs living with others Anonymous 309168[Reply]

have you had the opportunity to live alone?
what kind of roommates have you experienced? who has been the best? the worst?
what living situation do you like best of all?

I had the wonderful opportunity to live alone for the past 6 months, it was bliss, but i fell into bad habits. I have a roommate now, she just moved in this past week. wow its such a great change, because she is so nice, thoughtful, clean, it motivates me to be clean too…I've lived with moids in the past, roommates and boyfriends, but of course platonic women are always the best to live with, as long as they are a similar speed to myself.

I had an abusive roommate situation and now can’t trust living with anyone anymore. I found out I was her 4th roommate that year and it was only June. She stressed me out to the point of becoming prediabetic. I want a roommate but there are too many disaster stories.

I lived for a year with a moid we didn't really do anything but smoke weed and watch shows together but it was much nicer than to live alone because I am constantly lonely

had an ex roommate who was going through addiction problems and would send me long text messages accusing me of stealing her food (i only ate food at my job because i was so broke at this time). she would also talk shit about me loudly to her friend and family members. i think with the mix of her trying to quit, mental problems, and wanting to live alone she took it out on me as i didn't do much but go to school/work and clean the house. it made me sad because we were ok friends before this.

i live with two roommates now that are very chill and clean well, vice versa. i'm glad i can actually come home without fear now.

So is Sucralose better than Sugar?

Anonymous 309490

>>308696
sucralose still stims vagus into releasing insulin just like aspartame and sugar. it just doesn't contain calories. if you eat too few calories but still get lots of insulin response, you break down muscle for energy instead of what you ate or fat.. insulin is bad for things unrelated to weight also

insulin prevents you from losing weight because it prevents stored energy (fat cells) from being used to power your body. zero calorie is a literal scam for weight loss on top of tasting bad

nature intended sugar to be used to prevent starvation during the long periods (sometimes weeks) ancient humans went without finding food. we evolved to enjoy it so much because humans needed to want to eat it whenever possible since in nature it doesn't occur that much. not eating any carbs means you'll go keto, which is a survival mechanism meant to increase the chances of finding actual nutrition. you were simply not meant to eat sweet things everyday and the insane amount of insulin that's considered normal for children will have lots of metabolic and cellular consequences starting in midlife if kept up into adulthood

women are supposed to have a longer index than ring and it's based on androgen exposure in the womb (so if yours are equal or your ring is bigger than your index then it means you were exposed to more androgen in the womb than the average woman)

Each country has their own cost of living situation even though most share the same currency. Northern and southern Europe was always split on the living with parents issue (also on a lot of other issues and some countries like Italy have their own north/south splits). The thing that changed in recent years though was that the upper age limit got higher for both the north and south. Then there is stuff in the graph that isn't accounted for for example luxembourg is filled to the brim with expats because its a tax haven for corporations which explains the inflated number

Nobody can afford to leave their parents house anymore. Even with a 9-5 office job. Fuck this economy

Are we allowed to vent on autistic people here? I sure would like to, I've met some really irritating assholes who have flat-out told me they're on the spectrum.

BTW anyone else ever felt that autists just really like talking about food for some reason? (I mean like regular food, not fine dining stuff) I've my theories as to why, but would like to hear your opinions first.

It's irritating to have struggled with what was diagnosed as Asperger's and to not have the resources or support I needed as a kid and yet seeing it turn into a social contagion nightmare. A majority of people that say it with pride probably aren't. Especially the "it's not a disability" crowd. It's been severely disabling for me to the point that I can't function well without support. Shits irritating to me. The amount of toxic people I've dealt with who blame it on "neuro-divergence" to my face have made me distrust most people who try to act wholesome. And the people that try and enable it. Destroys social groups and causes hostility in work environments.

Anonymous 308951

I have been thinking recently about how autism is often said to be underdiagnosed in women due to "presenting differently" in females. My theory is that autism does not actually present differently in girls, it is just treated differently by gender– ignored for girls and coddled for boys. Autistic girls don't "act" autistic because they are actually forced by society to function within it.

Obviously this does not apply to severe cases, but I wonder how many high-functioning autistic boys have actually been stunted by diagnosis; obviously all males are socialized with entitlement and lack of empathy but autistic males moreso. In my opinion, if they were simply raised like autistic girls are (which is to say, just treated normal), they would be able to be more independent and better functioning.

autistic brains don't do "synaptic pruning"
in essence, you make neural connections between different parts of the brain and the unused/unnecessary neurons are supposed to get pruned like the leaves of a shrub

but autism prevents the brain from making itself more efficient, signals from one brain region to another have to take a way longer route than allistic signals to get to where they're needed

this is worse in autistics who were forced to be as "normal" as possible as children because overstimulating the brain will cause lots more initial branches to lay the groundwork for a completely out of control amount of "excess" neural connections

you may wanna look into meditation's effects on grey brain matter because it made the speaking delay shorter for me

also, all of you spiteful neurotypicals literally ruin lives by being impatient and forcible about monotropy especially for autistic children. unless you start killing us (america seems to be about to begin with that) the only way to make it better for everyone is accomodation

Normal moids don't pick on autistic women and don't try to shun them, but normal women pick on autistic moids constantly and genuinely get the ick just from their existence. Or of any lower value moid for that matter.

Anonymous 309570

>>308951
Utter bs. Competition between moids and women presents differently - overt vs covert. Moids are competitive towards eachother and bully eachother openly, calling names, showing 0 empathy, being harsh etc. While women play along, show empathy, are there for one another and generally emotiknally available when one is crying or upset, meanwhile on the other side - 'Boys don't cry'.
Regular people can also have meltdowns but learn early on to deal with it differently- women develop more complex ways of addressing those emotions while moids learn to repress them and 'be a man'.

It depends on what country you're in. Of course, being a billionaire CEO of a mutinational corporation will get you a seat at any table. In my country, all you need to join the ruling class is a law degree, public speaking lessons and some wealthy donors who'll bankroll your election campaign in exchange for favourable grants and voting positions. Then you just need to be a soulless, empty suit and serve the interests of millionaire donors until you can do enough insider trading to fund your own multi-million dollar business and perpetuate the cycle.
