FeatherConstrictor,

Ah wait this need for a “come down” from stimulation might explain a lot of things for me.

If I’m coming down from a long day/walk/etc. the tiredness hits me, but if I don’t go to bed and fall asleep fast enough, even if I’m relaxing, then I will no longer be sleepy and will struggle to fall asleep.

FeatherConstrictor,

Uh but aren’t you just exhausted for your work day then?

FeatherConstrictor,

Nah I’m just in hella debt

FeatherConstrictor,

Yes, please teach us your ways. Years of therapy, currently in a long-term DBT program, and yet Im having the most awful RSD spiral right now from what? I couldn’t even tell you because it doesn’t even make sense verbalizing it.

Shit fucking sucks.

FeatherConstrictor,

Nom de poon it’s gold

FeatherConstrictor,

WAIT WTF ITS NOT JUST ME HOLY SHIT I

FeatherConstrictor,

Hey man idk why you’re being so hostile to people responding to you, but it is the point OP is making. They’re saying that ANY Linux distro, including Ubuntu, are seen as ‘hipsters’ to average PC users, but within the Linux community Ubuntu is very basic AKA not hipster.

Off the top of my head, the easiest analogy is that having your favorite song be Creep by Radiohead might be seen as kinda alternative/hipster to someone who listens to pop music, but to anyone in the indie community or radiohead fans, it’s seen as the opposite.

FeatherConstrictor,

I can’t find any cats 😞

FeatherConstrictor,

I do not believe in free will

Cool, elaborate? :)

FeatherConstrictor,

That’s a really interesting point of view that I hadn’t heard before, thanks for sharing

FeatherConstrictor,

I take the train to my new job and I gotta say I didn’t expect to like working on the train so much. If you pass through any nnicd areas you have a nice view, the upper floors are quiet zones during rush hour, the seats are fairly comfortable. It’s nice! The drive is about half the time, but even if I could drive there I wouldn’t.

FeatherConstrictor,

Yeah the Vyvanse side effects wore off for me too, but so did it’s efficacy over time even though I rarely take it every day. I did take it daily for a couple months recently though.

FeatherConstrictor,

I did that for a while and (anecdotally) it only delayed the effectiveness from reducing, didn’t stop it.

Need advice on new sensory friendly office shoes

I just started interning and it’s my first office job (Yay!) but most of the clothes I feel comfortable wearing are not really office attire. Especially shoes. I have no “appropriate” shoes because shoes have always been a particular source of sensory issues so I wear the same black pair of mesh trainers. I have to commute...

FeatherConstrictor,

That sounds like a great idea in the future if it becomes a possibility! We don’t have assigned desks so that’s not an option for me; I’d have to carry my shoes in my bag and the extra backpack weight sounds like it’d offset the foot comfort. Thanks for your response ☺️

FeatherConstrictor,

I will look those up for sure! And yeah I’ll also spend a few more days observing what others in the office are wearing to get a better idea. Thanks!

FeatherConstrictor,

I recently watched a YouTube essay about this and completely agree. Luckily my foot isn’t wide, so the shoes that I wear as my dailies don’t push in my pinkie toe at all even though it doesn’t have a particularly wide toe box, just a mix of soft flexible fabric and a slightly bigger size.

The video I watched does recommend a few shoes for people like you, I’d be happy to find it and send it if you’d like :)

FeatherConstrictor,

Yes I agree, I have been looking around at others’ footwear and I do see some sneakers (though nicer cleaner looking ones than the ones I’m wearing, which aren’t bad, they’re solid black, but the design is very casual and sporty). For this reason I’m thinking I might look for Birkenstock boots and a pair of comfortable white sneakers. I’ll look into the go walks, I like the roomier shoes! Thanks :)

FeatherConstrictor,

FeatherConstrictor,

Oof 6 months? 😬 That’s not a lot considering their cost. Thanks for the feedback

FeatherConstrictor,

Yeah I always go out and read as many reviews on a product as I can to feel comfortable with my decision, especially for an expensive purchase :)

FeatherConstrictor,

Thank you so much for your in-depth advice and explanation!

FeatherConstrictor,

Balatro off my friends steam library. Has been a surprisingly addictive game. People’s descriptions of it didn’t make me want to play, it was watching her play that got me hooked :)

FeatherConstrictor,

Haha tell me about it (re: Balatro), I’m in the same boat with it!

FeatherConstrictor,

Man I’ve been using Voyager since the beginning after switching off jerboa but all these thunder comments are making me want to try it out!

FeatherConstrictor,

I don’t think so
