Bought a book about autism in adults, which seems written with a scientific perspective. Hopefully it will counteract the enormous amount of stuff that's out there focusing on autistic children.
It's my theory that it takes especially communicative people to draw attention to something, and autistic people don't tend to be that, but their parents might be. So when these children grow up and leave the house, they are forgotten about, as if somehow adulthood cures autism or as an adult you learn to live with it. But it doesn't and you don't. You just live your life in obscurity.
I'd love to find a proper book explaining exactly how autistic people should live their life. Sounds weird, but since we don't know naturally and we like clear rules and explanations anyway, a book like that sounds obvious?
Four important dates:
- 21 October: The Peripheral on Amazon Prime with Chloë Grace Moretz
- 23 November: Wednesday on Netflix with Jenna Ortega
- 5 December: His Dark Materials season three on HBO Max with Dafne Keen
- 10 February (& 10 March): You season four on Netflix with Amy-leigh Hickman

and now it's running fine again. For the last couple of weeks I had not been able to see my timeline. These statements should normally not be necessary for postgresql, but the exceptional case they describe that would need it seems to me exactly what Pleroma does: delete most objects but leave a few so index pages don't get completely empty and hang around.Sean Tilley likes this.
Proving that you can't be too old to be #AcceptedToNevermore Academy as long as you're weird enough. I'll be one year behind @wednesdayaddams, hope she will be kind to us new students.
Ah the smell of false hope on a #Wednesday...

Wednesday, the highly anticipated #JennaOrtega series about Wednesday Addams at Nevermore Academy, will premiere 23 November at #Netflix.
It is that late so other shows can cling on to the hope of being best series of the year, only for #Wednesday to shatter their dreams.
fair, I guess this probably just says a lot about people on fedi or internet in general because I didn't expect it to be so techbrain
I just run into this viewpoint every few days from different people so at this point I thought I'd post about it
I actually use my aesthetics brain when I do code reviews. If the code doesn't look aesthetically pleasing to me, there is usually a present or future bug there.
Aesthetically pleasing code is more easily maintained, because it's easier to read and understand.

Jenna Ortega is at a fashion show in Paris (Maison Valentino) and I've seen her look on Instagram on the fan accounts. It's an amazing look. I'm going to have to visit the stock photo sites again this evening...
These photos are by fashion photographer Genevieve Leah (instagram.com/p/CjOBgW7LxwR/) and make up artist Naoko Scintu (instagram.com/p/CjN2hHeMuxX/).

I mean the most breathtaking woman arrives at Paris Fashion Week and she's not even one of the models:

10 items per month, for one year: €229. 25 items per month, for one year: €599. I've re-calculated this a couple of times, but the bigger subscription is more expensive even per item, right?
Anyway, that's all moot since the type of things I need/want are actually around €80 per item; or €400 for the good ones.
Public transport is like when you park your car and they charge you for entering and exiting the parking. And then you still have to take another bus from the parking place to where you need to be.
I'm still doing it, for environmental reasons, but they could make it more available financially and practically.
It was nice of a fellow inhabitant of my apartment building to give me a package he had found that had my address on it. It was apparently put in the elevator by 'non-delivery service' DPD. I never take the elevator, how should I have known?
It had already been opened by other people and is likely no longer complete. Since it was not a package I was expecting or ordered (a surprise), I don't know whether any contents are missing.
So in addition to not using DHL as I mentioned earlier, we shouldn't be using DPD either.
Today in the #JennaBirthweekRewatch I finished watching The Babysitter: Killer Queen (it was late yesterday) and I'm now doing another episode of You season 2. #JennaOrtega steals that show.
Yesterday I also rewatched an episode of Richie Rich. She's so funny in it! And so tiny, this show was when she was very young...
For today's #JennaBirthweekRewatch I'm going to be a heretic and watch what I consider #JennaOrtega's best horror film: The Babysitter: Killer Queen. Not only is she one of the leads, the film also remains character-based whilst running from killers.

Claudia Jessie in this teaser for Bridgerton season three, where her colleague is trying to paint her, says he's accidentally put on too much paint and she correctly guesses 'am I drooping?'. Her comment: 'well, I can't play a teenager forever'. So funny, he was however talking about using too much paint for her eyes...
She did convincingly play the 17 year old teenager Eloise at 31 in season one; I don't think she has anything to worry about.
Also in this clip, Nicola reading Lady Whistledown's opening lines of season three.
