guys please keep Puerto Rico in your thoughts, we have been having earthquakes for the past 10 days and this last one was a 6.6

electricity is out everywhere, people are scared, we’re still recovering from hurricane maria and houses have collapsed. please stay tuned, i will try to keep updated as long as my battery holds out.

some images of the damage are starting to surface. please stay tuned for any ways of helping us.

UPDATE: another 6.0 earthquake just hit.

a little update: the quakes haven’t stopped. we’ve had over 21 registered today, but there have been more; its just that they are too many to keep accurate track of. we’re still without power and signal is wonky. my anxiety is through the roof and i can’t cope, and i know im not the only one. please donate if you can to the hispanic federation: https://www.hispanicfederationunidos.org/donate-now-earthquake-emergency

i’ll post more links for donation as i find more; please keep us in your thoughts.

an update! we still dont have power and as of today there have been around 920 registered earthquakes since december 28. thankfully, there werent any significant tremors last night for the first time in three nights! however the possibility of another big earthquake or an even bigger one is still very real— and we are living in fear. people had to sleep outside their houses last night, in the cold and with no where to go. please, donate if you can. if not, i’m begging you to spread the word.

Adhd is so weird because ghosts could be messing with me and moving my stuff and I literally wouldn’t know. That chair wasn’t there a second ago? Oh well I must have moved it without thinking. The tv was on all night? I guess I forgot to turn it off. Did I leave this window open? Probably.

straight brain: Janis Ian was probably gay lol

lesbian brain: Regina George is the biggest lesbian in the history of cinema and she started the lesbian rumor about Janis to deflect from her own feelings and used hyper femininity and bullying to do the same when she entered high school in the rest of this essay I will-

in conclusion Regina and Janis will show up to brunch with Cady and Damian the day before their 10 year high school reunion arm in arm in these exact outfits

Actually, it just boils down to how you naturally communicate. There was a study done on this specific social situation that showed that, while neurotypicals usually respond to a person telling an unfortunate story about themselves with something along the lines of “that’s awful” or “that must feel so X,” neurodivergent folks (specifically autistic, although in my personal experience it applies to cousin conditions like ADHD and BPD) were more likely to respond with a story of their own. To us, the first one feels hollow and token, where the second one actually shows that you know how they’re feeling, and that you’re truly sympathizing rather than putting on airs, but to a neurotypical person the second one usually feels like monopolizing the conversation, or even more drastically, getting into a pissing match over who had it worse.

It’s two drastically different neurotypes getting their wires crossed when trying to communicate with each other.

Hey what the fuck

You mean…there’s a reason why I have this impulse? And it’s not because I’m a terrible egocentric person?

I…I think I need to lie down for a bit…
