Cats our fun, one of my male cats killed a gecko and is carrying it around the house and tried to (unsuccessfully) offer it to my sibling. This is the first time one of our cats offered something they killed to us, most of the time they just bat it around the house until either a dog eats it or one of us throws it away. We are a reptile loving family so when possible we rescue the lizard and lizard adjacent creatures that end up in our house and put the outside when possible.

You know the whole oldest child is expected to be the responsible one from their parents. That’s not how it works in my family, I’m the one that’s supposed to be responsible when are parents aren’t home because I know how everything in the house kinda works, and can actually cook. I’m really happy I only have 1 sibling because of this. My parents wanted 3 kids but were too old after I was born.

What do you think Hatsune Miku is? If you've never heard of her, choose which option seems correct to you.

*H if you can, please provide a picture of the girl :)

An anime character

A video game character

A virtual singer

A robot

An AI

A youtuber

#anyone wondering what Miku and other vocaloids are #they’re all characters with voice banks sampled by actual singers and are used to #either make original songs or cover existing ones #miku is the most popular but there are many others that aren’t even Japanese #Oliver is one of my favorite and he’s an English vocaloid #vocaloid

Help me prove my family wrong!

I don't know if this post will break containment, but will you like/reblog if you are or know a man who is asexual? All of the people in my life seem convinced that being Ace is a 'girl thing' and that Ace men don't exist!

#I’m not an asexual man #but I know there are a lot of ace men out there

Fun fact about people studying psychology from someone who took classes in it. When learning about the disorders you might start thinking you have it. The fact I missed the one class that I might have done this when I was in my intro to psychology course because I wasn’t feel well is a crime.

#psychology #sleeping disorder #I actually missed a lot of classes but that was just me getting sick a lot last semester #I think I was just exposed to a lot of people in close areas for the first time since elementary school #my immune system actually got it’s shit together this semester

I sometimes forget how to spell basic words in the English language. Today I forgot Inappropriate. I’ve decided to try to remember it by breaking it up as Ina ppro pirate. Luckily autocorrect is here to save me.

I love how little actual public school did to get handwriting and reading through to me. I did 90% of it myself. Like the only things my school provided was Percy Jackson as required reading and my 3rd grade English teacher having a cursive alphabet in her class. I would just practice cursive when I finished all of my class work before all the other students because I had the “gifted kid who finishes all of her work in 3 minutes” debuff.

A thing that always throw me for a loop is that I’m neurodivergent. I’m professionally diagnosed with dyslexia and probably have some other issues that I haven’t been diagnosed with. But most times I see things relating to the neurodivergent experience I’m just like “Yeah that’s not me.” It seems like neurodivergent had become another way to say autistic and/or adhd. Like I have neither (to my knowledge) the only two things I’m sure I have is dyslexia and some kind of sleep disorder.

#dyslexia #neurodivergent #mental health #personal experiences #it’s really weird #I know adhd is really common but the label of neurodivergent refers to anyone with any condition that divitates from what’s considered #normal in psychology #it’s basically anyone with any mental condition wether they were born with it #or it devopled later in life #it’s such a diverse label

[apollolewis]

if you have a mental or neurological condition, how do you feel about the term "neurodivergent?"

options:

i like it, it describes me

i like it, but it doesn't describe me/i'm unsure if it describes me

i dislike it, it's euphemistic

i dislike it for a different reason

i feel neutrally toward it

other/just here to see results

#I find an issue with it is that basically everything that isn’t neurotypical is neurodivergent #like learning disabilities and psychological disorders that aren’t similar to autism or adhd #but most things that people say are neurodivergent things are related to autism and adhd #it’s just a very large group of people and it’s not all the same thing #like I have dyslexia but not adhd and austim (as far as I’m aware) but my sibling has adhd #we’re both neurodivergent but it’s not the same #we don’t have any of the same quirks or things that are considered typical neurodivergent things
