Gave Ash one of his big xmas presents today. One of the things about autistic kids is that they do not react well to surprises, so we need to handle the holidays slightly differently and not overwhelm him on the day, so we are spreading his presents out a little. It explains why when he was four he burst into tears over opening his presents.

I wish I knew now what I didn't know back then.

Doing a course on autism to hopefully learn more about his condition. The first part of it was all about what terms to use because some people are offended by being called whatever and should be called this instead... Great, but that really doesn't help me deal with him at all in any way. I see no practical difference between saying an autistic person and a person with autism. Apparently though this is a big deal. I did get a question wrong in an exam based on that, but then again the certificate itself isn't what I am wanting out of this course. I am seeking understanding, not qualifications.

I don't consider myself woke, because based on what I've seen from them wokeism is more about enforcing a certain mindset and allowing no deviation from that. To me that is no different from the facist mindset. Then again I've always felt that if you go far enough on the left or right wing, you end up in the same place. Polically you travel far enough on either side, you end up finding that you are really in a circle.

Quote from: zombie no.one on December 18, 2025, 09:31:14 AMcurrently eating my lunch and it's 14:30. pretty late for lunch... what are the time-parameters of 'lunch'?

10am is too early for lunch. 3pm is too late

It depends where you are. Lunch at 4pm is normal in Spain. Food times here in Germany:

Breakfast: 5am - 7am
Second Breakfast: 8am - 10am
Dinner: 11am - 1pm
Coffee (and snack) 2pm - 4pm
Lunch: 5pm - 7pm
