ship Report

While some might argue that memes have gotten “weirder” over the years, if you take a trip back in time and go through the internet of the '90s and early 2000s, you’ll find that things were already a tad strange, unusual, and niche. Dancing animals, the often incomprehensible-to-outsiders rage comics, and inside jokes on top of inside jokes. 

The truth is, the speed and ease of use the internet brings allows basically every community with a common language (or even concepts) to create and share memes among itself. This is why every demographic, fandom, and profession has a meme page just for it.

Absolutely. And it doesn't even have to be a New Year's resolution. I have set myself challenges that every month I have to watch one documentary. Or how many different genres of movies I can watch in a year. Different music styles, food culture of different countries, etc. A month when I dedicate myself to the history of art, architecture... The possibilities are endless and at the same time you learn something new.

This is hilarious. I'm glad they realize they are funny (or are at least having fun).

What role? To prevent her goddaughter finding her true love, even if it happens to be an ogre.

I am sorry but I seriously can't wrap my head around the fact that people can't built the IKEA furniture... It is so so easy with step by step instructions, pictures.... How can someone fail at this.. (no need to answer. I seriously lack the imagination of not understanding too put part A to Part A....)

I pick up accents quite fast, my English accent is from watching Morse about a hundred times, my french accent is that of a Marseillan dock workers as I spent a year working in a shipyard at Marseille at 18. I did get a slight Irish accent at one point when I was dating a Irish man, but a few episodes of Morse made it go away again.

As a parent of an adult who is neurodivergent, I always wondered if organizations ever consulted with people who were neurodivergent on doing this if it would affect them in any negative way like it did this one individual. My daughter used to always ask me if we could please turn off the porch lights for the people who put blue bulbs in.

First part, gold. Last part: 'turn off the porch lights for the people who put blue bulbs in.' I don't understand. 😅

Blue lights in a cafeteria would make food look rather unappetizing.

In UK blue lights indoors are to prevent d**g use because you can't see veins, blue lights outdoors apparently reduce crime though not sure how.

In my small seaside town, the lights along the waterfront are all blue :) it’s actually a tsunami warning system, if they turn red we know to get the heck away from the water. Just a fun fact! (I think the thing about blue light reducing crime has to do with the calming effect blue light is believed to have on an environment )

A place I worked at organised an "autism awareness" day thing at a restaurant that was also a disco. Management were bragging about it as though they'd done something great until we autistics went "so you set this up in a place that's going to overwhelm us and send us into sensory overdrive? and you expect us to attend? why would you do that? do you hate us?"

Exactly! Oh, and I found out that even just the sound of a plastic fork scraping against a plastic bowl can send me into sensory overload.

I really wonder if folks think stuff through at all anymore. Now they have lights on bicycles that are wicked bright and flash quickly, so you can be sure to see the cyclists after dark. Whelp, they're sure to give my cousin a grand mal seizure, so you'll be riding straight into that, you visible little night rider.

My autistic son can't stand blue light either, he can't stand bright lights in general though.

As someone on the spectrum, I would hate this. I can do mild amber lighting, but blue lighting is unacceptable.

I'm not autistic (despite my daughter thinking I am) but I find blue light really calming.

I explained to a guy what Neurotypical meant and he said, "I don't think I like being labeled like that." My daughter looked at him and pointedly said, "Oh, shoe's on the other foot now, isn't it." Then we both giggled and walked away.

Some of our trains got blue lights and I hate it so much. I read it's too be awake better in the morning or so but it's on all the day and I really feel bothered by it, not the slightest more awake and somehow it's more uncomfortable to read in this light to me. Do blue lights can have a positive affect for people with autism ?

Occasionally they might? I haven't met anyone who's had a positive effect from blue lights though. Mostly they set off our sensory issues.

My youngest grandson is slightly on the spectrum. However he is a voracious reader and would have a debate with adults on why the lights shouldn't be blue. He's going to be amazing on the debate team when he gets older.

My son has speech and language issues and can barely have a conversation. He did teach himself to count to 100 in Japanese though. Which was a nice surprise
