I don't understand the phrase "all things being equal" at all... Most things aren't equal. Many things aren't even measurable!

I mean, my beard hairs and your college degree aren't equal.

My posts and your posts aren't equal.

A trip to mars and that nasty fart you just let rip aren't equal.

I just don't get it.

@djsundog you or the chicken?

Can anyone think of a 4 letter synonym for "Mormons"?

Just thinking about knuckle tat ideas, and I don't have enough fingers for "FUCK MORMONS"

@skinnylatte Your posts about your work make me feel sad to go sit at my desk and sit through meetings... but they also let me live vicariously, so please continue!

@skinnylatte Wow. Kerning got me... I really really thought that said horney, not homey.

I spent far longer than I should admit wondering how food could be horny, and why you would make such an obvious spelling mistake.

I should get some sleep or something... looks yummy though!

@randomgeek omg that is adorable

I feel sick...

I made the right choice though. Now I have to morn...

I am so angry.

I had hoped that my mom wouldn't vote to take away rights of millions of people. I had hoped that she wouldn't vote to make this country a dangerous place. I had hoped that she had a tiny shred of morality and decency, and compassion.

I hoped, but I didn't know. So this morning I asked her, and now I have no mother.

I've put up with enough hatred from her and other Mormon family members while all the while they call it love. I'm done.

Family has nothing to do with genes, or who gave birth to you. I do not include fascists in my family.

If the descendants of species A mutate in a significant way, and are no longer able to reproduce by mating with members of species A, then we would generally consider them a unique species. For this discussion lets call that species B.

If later descendants of species A mutate in a similar way, but with different genes being responsible then we would generally consider that to also be a new species.

But, what if later descendants of species A mutate in the same way that species B did? With the same genes and same mutations to those genes as species B?

@skinnylatte I suspect you did it for the same reason I and so many other autistic people would have. Masking to avoid conflict, or to avoid being judged, or seen as different.

@EdCates I really don't either...

I'm trying to figure out how to try. That's the best I've got right now.

I don't know how to be okay right now. I know I'm not the only one. I'm tired. I'm scared. I'm still trying.

@randomgeek Glad to hear a bit of good news tonight

@randomgeek That would often be a true response! Today I'm okay though, because we are already through security, and are kinda early...

Like, 5 hours early!

The song "Freak Out" just came on the overhead speakers here at the airport. My wife started tapping her head to the beat, then said to me "freak out."

"I'd really rather not. In fact I'm actively working rather hard not to."

"Yeah, good point."

(She gets me.)

@randomgeek @IamMrsGeek oh no! I hope he feels better soon!

We met a black cat named lucipurr.

How in the hell did it take me so long to accept that I am #ActuallyAutistic?

For those of you who have known me for a while, was it a surprise for you when I finally figured it out?

@randomgeek Well shit... you're probably right, and I probably needed to hear that right now too.

Enjoy your walk. I hope it helps!
