"Double-neurodiverse"? Look I'm all for more acceptance and understanding of me and my ND homies, but I'm pretty sure you only get the buff effect once no matter how many conditions with that flag you have; it doesn't stack.
Lol @ referring to it as the buff 🤣
the suicide rates for some comorbidities do have an additive effect though. the debuffs stack.
And many are on a spectrum. Its more complex than just stacking or independent of each other. Some may be linked traits that we dont understand yet.
Two separate ND diagnoses, but yeah I agree this doesn't make it double.
Yes, if someone is pregnant with twins, they are stil pregnant. Not double pregnant. It’s more to handle but it’s not a seperate pregnancy.
What an elegant analogy!
But it does mean that the meat mech has double occupancy more akin to Pacific Rim, rather than a single pilot design akin to Battletech.
Meat mech mom could be a band name.
Sounds like a grunge band name circa 2003.
...I thing double-extra pregnant is amazing, and love it.
Double extra pregnant is the last week and when youre overdue waiting....
Maybe the second diagnosis isn't multiplicative.
gotta min max my ND buffs yaknow
Nah, being non verbal is it's own extra challenge.
Yeah, right? I have a diagnoses both mental and physical that qualify me as "disabled," but I haven't seen a box I get to tick anywhere yet that says "super disabled"
If you get a super disabled parking tag, you can push away cars with disabled tags from disabled parking lots and use it yourself
It's the other end of the spectrum from "extremely normal"
I actually think it depends on order and priority 🤓
Jokes aside, I think it’s a fine term given the large differences between the two forms of ND he has.
Fine, but I wanna be super mega doubleplus extra neuro-ultra-diverse (/s, in absence of a trollface emoji 😂)

In my experience, people with multiple disabilities (MS + UC for instance) call themselves "twice blessed."
It's humorous, if that's unclear.
It’s great when you melt cheese between the layers. I prefer to add onions as well for extra crunch and flavor.
It's another article that shows Walz as a good guy who isn't here to play power games and politics - honestly, he would be catnip to rural voters if Fox News didn't exist.
Give him time. He everything wholesome to Trumps fucked-up bloodshed and vengeance horseshit
Seeing what shit's like in the rural south, I'm not so sure that good guys that don't want to play power games is what actually sells-politically--in rural areas.
Yeah, it's what they claim they want... and then they elect a daddy's money billionaire playboy reality TV host asshole who's been married multiple times to immigrants. Words don't mean shit.
However, I'm unsure how much of this is due to the effect of Fox and how much is genuine. Can they think for themselves or are they just doing what they're told?
Yeah in rural Ohio they want a carpet bagger that’s on their side not some genuine person who just wants what’s best for everyone
All I think of every time he speaks is Henry Wallace
It's great Walz is exceeding standards, it sucks that they're this low.
And I'm pretty sure the plural for Walz isn't "Walzes"
And I'm pretty sure the plural for Walz isn't "Walzes"
No, I would say that is correct.
What if the Walzes' favorite dances are waltzes?
Tim is actually a ballroom dance enthusiast, and designed his own training apparatus to help people learn to dance without a partner and without taking up any floorspace. They sell them as Walz' Waltzes Wallses.
This guy just keeps getting perfecter
If walls could talk, that would be what the wall says.
Did you really just say "if walls could talk" in a thread about a walz with a nonverbal learning disorder?
~Just a joke if that isn't clear~
I was going for the “wall says” / Walzes, and didn’t realize till much later that the “if walls could talk” was even a thing.
Seeing Gus last night made me tear up every time the camera went to him. He was so proud of his dad.
Same. I'm getting emotional just thinking about how frigging happy that kid was to see his dad and hero in the spotlight finally getting the attention he deserves.
Huh, I just thought their son wanted to not be in the spotlight and they were honoring his wishes.
this whole election is above my weight class.
i wish i could just vote today and then ignore all of this until the election is over as i am so beneath the people that i want to vote for it makes me feel badly.
