RE: Alas, CLARITY! I know what I want to be when I grow up.

in #personal8 years ago

I am bummed you plan on growing up

LOL

Since you asked for feedback..... I will say this. I mentioned to you a long time ago, I never knew what Aspie meant.

It is one of those things in that community you guys know about, but the rest of us don't and I guess if you want to outreach to the masses -- not @the.masses lol

-- then you have to decide if that is what you want or if it long term really is just for the insiders in the community.

And remember this is coming from a guy with friends on the Asperger and Autism side of things. And I STILL never heard that, even when I was researching info so I could relate and be a better friend to them. Male and female, BTW.

Hope you do not mind this but I think it is important.

Sort:  

I will definitely keep that in mind, @barrydutton - your feedback is important to me. I personally don't like saying that it's "a form of autism" because I don't agree with that assessment. I guess I prefer saying Aspie because I can't tell you how many people make fun of the name Asperger - as in "ass burger." It's sad and demeaning.

And, your ears must have been burning because I was thinking about you when I realized I didn't make a back-up before I cleared my cache and don't have access into my OpenLedger account anymore! sigh I should have listened. I thought I did...and probably got sidetracked. sad. sad.

Fair points all around. I know what you mean. But then again I have been a social justice advocate a long time and that is even with what I am dealing with here as you know. Marginalized again by the 2nd bank in 3 months LOL.

The OL restore is easier than you think, like I said, we both find their stuff hard to use and clearly you are smarter than me hahaha

Oh, man! Good things have to come your way, Barry! I've got prayers and positive thoughts being sent out to the universe on your behalf.

I was so frustrated with myself about the OL thing that I closed the tab. I'll deal with that mess when I have more patience. LOL

lol, I know how you feel lol. I can spend 5 mins one day if you PM me or something and lead you to the simplest stuff that actually works on that.

I'm back in! WooHoo! I was cleaning up the junk and reorganizing my laptop. And something told me to look through the recycle bin before I emptied it. There it was - a bts.bin file. So I restored it and I have my OL account back.

So happy! :)
