  Yeah, romans began to use soap at roughly year zero. I wonder why. I wonder why people use deodorant every day, when they just can spray water under their arms.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  thanks, thats certainly a good read! I wonder though why clinics don’t have soap bars; maybe thats not true, but is it not general knowledge that soap bars spread germs?

  ah, you answered that as well, sorry. thanks!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, seeing it from that side, I agree. you are right

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  no and yes to that; there are tall people and small people, but that is usually not a medical condition.

  everyone is built the same. and certainly nobody is built to have life detrimental skin conditions; yes, severe gene defects exist. But if you are swaetting a lot and you stink like a skunk, there is a very good reason for it. and the reason is:

  something is hindering homöostasis to work properly- and that is usually a thing you ingested but don’t need, or a thing you did not ingest, but need. plus toxin exposure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  thats worng, you describe disinfectants, soap breaks the fatty bonds that stick the bacteria to your skin. so, while you whash your hands, these alive bactera are whashed down the drain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  the question is: are they sick and thus the skin is out of whack, or are they sick because the skin is out of whack?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  now try doing that with hair. or your hands after vivisecting a corpse, and then delivering a baby. clean up feces and vomit, and then try to get rid of the smell without soap.

  every farm worker that works with life stock knows what i am talking about.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  many oduors subside once you get rid of candida and bacteria. I had smelly sweaty feet, lost 30 kilos, feet dry and no smell anymoe, i am so happy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  so does water with high hydrogencarbonate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon scentmaxxes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  so thats why soap is one of the oldest cheical inventions : because you dont actually need it. pure luxury.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon misses something⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  yeah, I hate this play pretend stuff to get out of being judged.

  i recently realized that this could be masking, and i always did that, and I had completely false understanding about masking in autism.

  god, I had so many awkard situations with not recognizing people… aqand friends and family dont believe me, because sure, i recognize them.

  accepting my defects instead of being ashamed of them was very difficult. but it was the right path to go down, i am much happier then 10 years before.

  my brother has the same thing, my mother would even buy him alcohol. they are in a symbiotic emotional abuse situation.

  she needs to keep him a child, and he wants to be safe and secure, but at the same time, it eats him up, since he also wants to be an independant man.

  so he needs his mother, but hates her at the same time.

  she needs someone to fuss about, since without it, she is nothing. she hated when the rest of us grew up.

  she overstepped boundairies countless times. phoned with schools, workplaces. hospitals. boyfriends from my sisters, multiple times. to involvee herself, get a hold on us, mend a broken relationship for us, make deals with school, what have you.

  I was 32, lying injured in bed, Nurse came in, phoning with mom. I grabbed the phone, screamed in red hot anger, and then forbid to staff and docs to communicate with her. they had to talk me down because i was shaking and could not calm down from the adrenalin rush.

  she made such a fuzz about me when I was laying in intensive care, that I threw her out of my room. I was sedated and on a breathing aparatus, but she made me so mad because of her way of treating me like a hurt child.

  she knew I hated that *hit. I told her a 1000 times. like my siblings also did.

  she always ingores that i AM autistic, and tries to get feelings out of that I don’t want to have.

  yep trauma response. i hafe the same thing.

  i love my mom, and I am deeply ashamed and sorry to have her blocked. but she harms me everytime I see her.

  I wil miss her and regret it all when she dies.

  thanks a lot ;-)

  remember saying no has to have consequences!

  watch out for: friends don’t accept no, try to convince you (once in a while that okay… its hard to sniff out)

  people argue via the benefits YOU will have, without mentioning THEIR benefits, and you don’t even want the benefits they are trying to sell you

  you defend people in your friend group, people never defend you

  people always seem ok with interrupting you, no one bothers to put a stopgap in, so you can finish what you have in mind

  let people talk, while thinking. people will tell you who they are, but you have to give yourself space to really listen to them.

  mostly, their words dont fit into their actions.

  look out for key phrases - one might be: "So you are saying? " this is usually followed by a thing you did not say at all. another might be: “I am so sorry you feel that way.”

  train your self for these key phrases, ALARMS have to go on in your head. Have a script ready.

  What i do for the “so you are saying” is the following:

  I bid them politely and soft spoken to repeat the question, as soon as they are past 3 words, I interrupt them really loud and aggressive with:

  “NO, I DID NOT SAY THAT AT ALL!”

  then I shut up and stare. I say nothing. the other guy has to say something first. it is a powerstruggle.

  You can’t do that with a pro, but most people are not used to that. A pro will see instantly see what is going on, and put you down, it is inevitable.

  learn in what situation you are in.

  combative, social, competetive, diplomacy or bartering. dont make my mistake, each and every situation was always social for me.

  other people dont perceive it like that.

  ok, I am glad you pulled yourself up by your bootstraps. (figure of speech)

  i had a hard time also. i whish you a good week!

  yeah, you probably should read up on comorbidities of adhd and autism, there are A LOT.

  these things have scary names, and are described in a severe fashion, but you have to have your eyes open for mild signs, like reversing number sequencing, or reversing left and right. forgetting always the same 15 words.

  if you have lots and lots of these things, they start to really trip you up in daily life, and you are ashamed of your self all the time, or, i was.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon misses something⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  thats because i experience that also, although it is not as severe as described in the wiki article.

  the biggest problem ist getting to know people, if i am not used to them, their speech sometimes is so muddled, I always wondered what was up with them, why were the speaking as they had hot potatoes in their mouth?

  turned out that if i get them to know more, their speech got clearer and clearer.

  well, and ten years ago, I realized It is my own odamn fault, got my autism diagnosis. also got problems with orientation (like, in a town), discalculia, mistaking left and right, not remembering the same couple of words again and again. problems with specific names (i switch up syllables, Diana turns into Adina, Jana. Nadia, Dana. stuff like that), reversing number sequences (had to quit my industry mechanic school because of this, the measurements are important…), reversing left and right

  and the absolute worst was driving alone on a road, nopbody around, i come up the the intersection, and I completely forgot wich side of the road I had to use. total blank. I could not say with which hand I write.

  this went on for 30 seconds, then it came back to me.

  quit driving because of this. oh, and I greatly misjudged speed and distance from the other cars. I was always driving mercedes automatics with sharp brakes, and turbo power, so i could relay on my brakes to stop, and on my engine to get away. drove automatic with tempomat and gps wa always on, that left my mind free to concentrate better on traffic.

  it aws a nightmare. Once i stopped driving, I quit drinking as well.

  I ride my bike now.

  well, tht was a huge story, i hope I did entertain you, have fun, and thanks for you initial misheard story with the flowers and the girl!!! :-)

  ps; once i startd treatment with ritalin, lyrics in music became so much clearer, I misheard so many thing, I had no idea.

  oh, now you mentioned subtitles:

  yeah, subtitles sometimes makes the audio clearer, you dont really have to read the subtitles, just glance a bit at them, and your brain will get the right directions ;-)

  I think it got better and better though - as a kid, I resorted to lie that I was deaf on one ear, sou i could get people to repeat and repeat what they just said. still didnt get it sometimes, and just said “yes”, only to be exposed as an idiot once more.

  couldn not even read the clock with the 12 numbers, the round mechanical type. learned it at age 13 at the trainstation, because I absolutely had to learn it. took me months from first really trying it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jackhammer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  so, someone did the math on that?

  no vacuum, that means atmosphere. so lets say 1 atmospheric pressure the whole way.

  which would be sad, because rain, clouds, ozone layer and countless other atmospheric phenomen would be impossible. so no life on the planet anyway.

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_attenuation

  how loud is the sun? does anybody know? what is the acoustic pressure on a certain orbit near the sun, iof there is atmosphere?

  so, the acoustic presssure needs to reach earth. it needs to travel 13 years.

  overcoming this much atmosphere between sun and earth eats energy, since there is a resistance. because there is an atmosphere, see? thats why sound gets softer and softer, the more away you are from the source.

  so I guess the whole idea is bullshit.

  but i am just a construction worker, maybe someone else will do the math.

  i doubt any light rays would make it here. it would be pitch black dark.

  the light would be scattered by the atmosphere.

  the vaccum does not block sound. it just doesnt transmit it. there is nothing what can block.

  same as vacuum does not suck. never. the key is pressure differential, the higher pressure dictates what will happen, not the lower pressure.

  you are trying to be very neutral, you try to put your ego aside, you try to weigh every tiny aspect of the thing that bothers you, you seem very logical about it, you dont know how to prioritze in importan or not important, you DID assess the social situation expertly and correct, you bothered doing that in the first place, you seem big on truth and justice, you tried to help the dude out of compassion because you obviously had or have communication problems yourself,

  you have been manipultaded because you are naive as shit, took you decades to learn to say no and set boundaries.

  and bla bla bla

  one tip: a no has to have consequences. really think about it, you have to follow up you no with action, its very important.

  its not your communication per se that reminds ME of autism, but your way with dealing with situations.

  thanks and take care, you are a cool dude (or dudette)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets diagnosed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  i am very sad that my brother is deteroirating rapidly from 12 years of anti depressants. he had like shizo thoughts, which is kinda normal if you abuse alcohol and various drugs havily, and then decide to go cold turkey.

  either way, he is loosing hair, showing all signs of malnutrition while being fat, has all kinds of ailments. his docs dont believe in adhd. my niece got diagnosed recently as well.

  its kinda typical that adhd people can’t acknowledge adhd, because it shatters the lottle self worth they retain by claim they turned out this way because of incident X that happened at age 15, or because of hpw my father handled family life (he is not abuseisve or anything, but he is a father with autism, that can be taxing)

  wait till you hear that keto nutrition benefits bipolar persons, binge eaters, parkinson people, epileptics, and thoses people who have severe ticks, like, tourettes.

  why is that?

  the answer is acetate metabolism.

  do you want to know why canabis works?

  canabis receptors have something to do with the insuline glucose mechanism, i don’t know yet what, i am just a former worker with no education.

  so, take this all as my opinion.

  but, at the other hand, biochemistry does not lie…

  it is a very captivating topic. its my special interest for now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon gets diagnosed⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  i can’t give you a source, because, believe me, you would be looking at

  well its just to much. its biochemistry…

  look up glucose acetate metabolism, adhd glucose- insulin pathway gene defects, combine that with insuline resistance. you get the insuline resistance by craving sugar. you crave sugar because of the pathway defect; if you eat the sugar, insuline gets activated, boom you have energy.

  ritalin does essentially the same, since its a stimulant, it ramps up basal metabolic rate. if you ramp that up, the body will go into glucoseneogenesis, and insulin will also get realeased. thats why ritalin wont work or work not ideal if you dont eat; it will not work at all if you are insuline rsistant /thats different fron defective insuline realease)

  so its the release that is defective from the start.

  thats why nutrition with a focus on acetate metablisism has benefits for autism and adhd.

  thats why people crave alcohol, acetate metabolism. thats why people on antidepressants crave sweets and alcohol , antidepresesants, most of them, make you insuline resistant. thats how antidepressants slow down metabolic basal rate, and why you get fat and sedentary.
