I wouldn’t even know where to get a diagnosis as an adult. All the resources in my area seem offer evaluations to children only.

Yeah this is good. I love this.

He is on Mastodon. I follow him there. Now I’m going to have to go see if his account is still active.

Jeezus, I’ve never had the experience of hearing someone screaming at me on the edge of sleep. That sounds horrifying! For me, it’s always like she’s calling to me from another room, like “Honey can you come here?”

I often hear my wife’s voice when I’m on the edge of sleep. Sometimes it’s so clear I’ll ask her what’s up, and she’ll look at me like I’m crazy.

That’s weird. I’ve never heard of anything like that before.

I’ve actually heard of this before. Is it common? Do you know of other people like this?

Hey this happens to me! Something in my ear just twitches for only a second or two and I hear a vibrating sound. It happens randomly and doesn’t seem to be triggered by anything. It’s also pretty rare. Maybe a couple times a month. I never thought that it sounded like thunder though and so didn’t make the connection. This sounds (Haha. See what I did there?) like the most plausible explanation yet.

Have a look at tilvids.com. I know of a couple of large YouTubers that crosspost their stuff there, and there are probably more that I don’t know about.

It’s my understanding that “reputation points” isn’t fully implemented yet and means nothing right now. I can’t point to a source for this. Something I read somewhere that I’ve forgotten.

Agreed. This place shouldn’t be a popularity contest.

There are multiple secured doors at my workplace I have access to, and they all have a little sticker next to the keypad showing a telephone style keypad with the letters. Those are there to remind you of what numbers to press for the four letter word you chose to represent your PIN. When I’m in the security office and choosing a new PIN, because the keyboard numpad is different, I’ll ask the person to turn their desk phone around so I can see the numbers to choose my PIN.

This actually happened to me a couple of years ago. This woman came into my office and after we were finished with business, she said something like “I have two tickets to the baseball game. Would you like to come with me?” And I was like “No thanks. I don’t like baseball very much.” then turned away and started working on something else.

After she left, everyone in my office said “OMG she just asked you out!” I didn’t get that at all and totally missed it. Besides, I’m married.

Heh. I didn’t even think of trying this. Thanks for the suggestion!
