He was, thank you for your kind words. I'm sorry for your loss as well; I'm sure Westie was well loved ๐Ÿฉท

It's been over a year since my rabbit passed and I still miss him so much. When I'm sad I wish I could pet and cuddle with him.

What is helium used for when diving?

I think I understand your argument as being "in a vacuum, being autistic isn't bad", which i agree with in a way; being neurodivergent in any sense technically isn't a bad thing, just a different thing. However, especially with people who are very autistic to the point of struggling to take care of themselves, autism and other neurodivergence can definitely present huge challenges and difficulties for the person themselves and the people around them. We do not live in a vacuum and society as it stands and has stood for hundreds of years is simply not built to be neurodivergent-friendly. At all. I have ADHD which many would think is "not as bad" as autism, yet I have struggled and gone through so mich pain and difficulties simply because of it. It has been an overall net negative. I suspect I may be a bit autistic too, but don't use the label as I haven't gone out of my way to seek a formal diagnosis. In any case, saying that autism isn't "a bad thing" can be touchy because it ignores a lot of real challenges and pain autistic people have gone through and is fairly close to the (frankly patronizing IMO) "autism/ADHD is a superpower" stuff. It doesn't feel like a superpower when you're suffering because of it.

Sorry for the ramble, it's a bit of a difficult and nuanced topic.

Really awesome response, thanks for sharing a different opinion on all the points people have been bringing up in this thread.

Well I guess I need to start looking for another non-chromium-based browser soon...

I had another reply that gave a decent reason to support the meme :)

Wuh oh, I'm OOTL here, what's happening to Firefox?

 

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 in a big city so I end up walking a decent amount, and shoes that are tight and/or heavy really mess with my focus.

Do you guys have any advice on how to find comfortable shoes that are at least a bit more office appropriate? Maybe solid clean white sneakers? For reference I'm female.

I'm unable to see the lists of posts I've made on desktop, mobile, and any of the mobile clients I've used. This goes for my accounts on both sh.itjust.works and Lemmy.world. I like seeing how my posts are doing or going back to read comments on there even if they've been marked as read. Could it be that it's not showing my posts because they've been marked as read and I've got settings to hide read posts? If so, seeing my own posts should be exempt from this setting.

UPDATE: if I show read posts, I can see my posts. This is definitely something that should be fixed; show read posts settings should only apply on my feeds, not when I'm looking through a user's or my own post history
