It’s actually much more comfortable for two people in one bed to have separate blankets. :) might be worth trying two twin blankets. Then your partner could have what they prefer and you could have weighted.

It's a standard I grew up with - if anything I wonder if I should be raising it for inflation.
Much like servers, delivery drivers aren't paid properly if they aren't tipped. But, in my mind, the quantity of food matters a lot less to the delivery driver's work, unless it's a large enough order to require multiple trips from the vehicle.
For the amount of time a driver has to work to drive to me and park and bring my order to the front door, yeah I think $5 is more than reasonable. They probably spend more time on me than a server in a restaurant does, in a lot of cases.
Pretty sure those aren’t mutually exclusive.
Came here for this.
I’m partial to flax linen, even though it’s not quite as good sustainability-wise as hemp.
It’s almost as absorbent and has similar anti microbial properties. But the main thing is it’s softer.
Hemp does appear to soften up over time but it can’t match linen’s particular soft smooth suppleness in the short nor the long run.
That said, the last decade or so “linen” is being made with factory processes using fibre ends instead of full strands. So it’s getting harder and harder to find real linen material that doesn’t break down in a couple years.
They’re even weaving jersey (stretch) material from it which is ridiculous, and eschews many of the benefits of the material. -_-
A few weeks back I was out with my kids and heard about someone jumping in front of the train that day.
All I could think was: what if a kid was sitting up front enjoying the ride and looking at the tracks? How would I deal with that if it were my kid?
Sounds like a justified cost to me.
They already stop in the same place consistently. Look for the gum and scuffs on the yellow strip. That’s where the doors will open.

What… I thought a twoonie was generous! You guys are all crazier than I am.
I’m in Canada but that may be true here as well.
Even from that description though it sounds like a grey area? Doing a craft project with someone isn’t like a romantic relationship or anything.
I did get some accidental “revenge” for this one.
Sometime months later, for some reason my phone started pocket dialling this psychologist and nobody else.
I didn’t even realize it was happening. But it drove her so nuts she called me about it a few times, and eventually asked me to remove her number from my phone.
Oh I have another one:
One counsellor I went to see through work insurance was just awful.
Most notably, I was dealing with issues surrounding having open heart surgery, and when I brought it up she started talking about her nephew or something who had some kind of heart problem, and how that obviously means she understands completely.

What are you trying to achieve?
Not showering? Or having some kind of support?
Instead of focussing on just “I have autism this is hard,” why not look into what might help you, so you can give your mom a clearer idea of how to support you.
For me, showering is so easy not to do at all. I have things built into my schedule which require it, though. Like massage (I feel obligated to be clean for that, and have a routine getting ready for massage). Also I’ve identified things that make me feel gross about being unclean, like when my hair is greasy, and that stays on my mind now once I notice it.
Also if you’re still under 18 (or whatever the age of adulthood is there), a diagnosis is probably a good idea because there may be support available somewhere.
