Random thoughts

I always have random thoughts. Today I'm thinking just how annoying eating would be if we didn't feel hunger or any satisfaction at all from eating. Imagine if it was a case of purposely grinding down food with your teeth and then swallowing, over and over again until the needed quantity had been consumed. It would be as tedious as pumping up and airbed with a foot pump, 3 times a day every day forever
 
I don't get hungry, at all. If I go without food for a few days, I don't notice. And I usually don't get satisfaction from eating either, so generally I will eat once a day, within a pattern that makes it nothing more than part of my routine. I am trying a little harder because my partner says my eating habits are not good, and when I see her, she loves cooking for me so I eat to please her, but then I forget again when I'm back on my own.

I can cook, and sometimes I enjoy it, but it's far more because of the science experiment aspect of it than eating the result.

I'd much rather there was 'meal pill' I could take that had everything I needed in it, because that would suit me completely.

Oh gosh that must be so hard. I absolutely love eating.... So much so that I have to really monitor what I eat so I don't get unhealthy

I think your experience is rather more common than mine, but neither are particularly healthy. I think that is not uncommon in Aspies!
 
I don't feel much hunger as well. Even if I do, I simply forget about it or I have no appetite for anything so I either eat whatever I have to or don't eat at all. It's just like this for some people, as well as those affected by mental condition like depression.
 
I don’t enjoy eating, nor do I feel the hunger. BUT my stim is chewing on consistencies that are different. Either corn puffs or marshmallows are my top choice. I can go through bags of marshmallows lately.

I don’t feel any taste of food to point it out to be likable or not. I don’t get hungry often either. When I don’t need the chewing stim (only when I’m extremely stressed out) I can go days without eating.
 
We're autistic here in our sanctuary.

We're bound to do these things at one point in the day.

We might as well get it out of our systems.

Meanwhile in Russia:

"
Вы положили слабительное на мою водку? Ты идиот! Теперь мне придется сбежать с российским танком! Затем я закладываю твои вещи и покупаю больше водки.

Дерьмо, я больше не могу сдерживать движение чаши. Мне нужно найти ванную комнату!"

Have you put a laxative on my vodka? You're an idiot! Now I have to escape with a Russian tank! Then I lay down your things and buy more vodka.

Uh oh....I can not hold back the movement of the bowl anymore. I need to find the bathroom! "
 
I was watching a video the other night presented by this neurological scientist. She was speaking on the subject of meditation and how her own personal experiences changed her perception on consciousness contrary to her "profession's academic indoctrination". I didn't particularly enjoy her style of public speaking but I have to commend her on her willingness to "come out of the closet", so to speak. Such a staunch move to "go against established dogma", more than anything will always destroy one's career. Then I thought of the following assessment on the "scientific community" as a whole. My random thought:

Contemporary sciences are a dichotomous discipline by practice due to its adherents’ illusionary philosophy structured with outdated paradigms. Careerism takes precedence over truth, personal economics supersede new discoveries, advancement in unknown human sentience sacrificed on the altar of covetousness. The simple act of entertaining novel theorems that don’t conform to an established model is deliberated as scientific heresy. Today’s researchers into new and exciting discoveries are stifled and impeded, bewitched by an hierarchy of structured organizations that administrate and censor all applied media in order to vindicate its own erroneous delusion.
 
My whole problem is the emotional pleasure I get from eating combined from my fear of passing out or becoming sick if I don't eat at least one balanced meal a day.
 
I think there might actually be some dark, evil conspiracy behind YouTube and those "eslagate" videos I've been learning about. What kind of a sick and twisted mind would put wholesome family-friendly characters like Disney and My Little Pony into videos full of sex, graphic violence, disturbing death scenes and graphic toilet "humor"? What is it with all the hypodermic needles? Is it simply to terrify little kids or some kind of a fetish? Why do these videos have millions of views? Why hasn't Disney or Hasbro done anything when we know how protective they are of their licensed characters?

For the first time ever I've seriously considered making myself a tin foil hat. Maybe I'll be extra creative and sculpt some cat ears or a unicorn horn on it.:sweatsmile:
