I'm going to write a thread on the way #autistic people perceive pain. Something that I haven't talked about much before. #autism /1

For some #autistic people, what neurotypicals might interpret as mild pain actually feels like sensory hell. Some autistic people are really sensitive to pain. #autism /2
It's important that medical professionals understand this. Even if they think that it's mild pain, it's actual sensory hell for the #autistic person.#autism /3
Medical professionals shouldn't accuse #autistic people of being "silly" or being "extra" if they are sensitive to pain. This has happened to me before. Medical professionals shouldn't invalidate the way autistic people perceive pain. #autism /4
Some medical professionals just don't have enough understanding of the way #autistic people perceive pain. I hope this thread will help them understand better. #autism /5
Sometimes, I feel like screaming when I have a headache or a tummy ache. People would then accuse me of overreacting. But they don't understand that this is the way the pain feels like for me. #autism /6
No one has the right to dictate how an #autistic person should react to the pain that they're in. Saying "bear the pain" won't help them. #autism /7
Going to now talk about sensory distractions which maybe a good technique to support #autistic people who are struggling to cope with pain. I know that if I'm listening to my favourite train sounds, the pain is still there but it becomes more bearable. #autism /8
You can help #autistic people who are struggling to cope with pain by encouraging them to engage in the things which are sensory soothing for them (e.g. fidget toys or nice music). This will act as a distraction and may help the pain feel more bearable. #autism /9
I'm now going to talk about the other extreme when it comes to the way #autistic people perceive pain. Some autistic people are relatively insensitive to pain. #autism /10
This means that some #autistic people may not complain at all even if they're in the most intense pain. #autism /11
This may make it harder to identify when the #autistic person is in pain and when they aren't in pain. #autism /12
I'm now going to talk about the way some sensory environments can mean that #autistic people feel like they're physically in pain. #autism /13
For me, when multiple people are talking loudly over each other, I can feel an unbearable headache and completely dizzy. #autism /14
Even some foods can make some #autistic people feel like they're physically in pain. If I eat something that is too sour, I can feel an unbearable headache. #autism /15
Feeling unbearable pain can be a trigger for meltdowns in some #autistic people. #autism /16
There's a lot to learn from this thread but if there's 1 thing I would like you to take away from this thread, it would be don't be judgemental on the way #autistic people perceive their pain. It's not your pain so you don't have a say on how they should perceive it. #autism /17
I hope you found this thread helpful to learn about the way #autistic people perceive pain. #autism /18

Simple and effective way 2 make Money


Idea 1:- Use pivot level like 14800 in case of nifty and sell 14800straddle monthly expiry (365+335) exit if nifty closes on daily basis below S1 or above R1

After closing below S1 if it closes above S1 next day or any day enter the same position again vice versa for R1

Idea2:- Use R1 and S1 corresponding strikes multiple
Incase of R1 15337 take 15300ce
N in case of S1 14221 use 14200pe
Sell both and hold till expiry or exit if nifty closes below S1 or above R1 around closing
If the same bounces above S1 and falls below R1 re-enfer same strikes

Use same criteria for nifty, usdinr and banknifty

(This is must)Use this margin rule for 1lot banknifty pair keep 4Lax margin
For nifty one lot keep 3Lax
For usdinr 100lots keep 4Lax

I bet you if you do this on consistent basis your ROI will be more than 70% on yearly basis.

Couldn't explain easier than this

Criticisms are most welcomed.

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttฤnapฤda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"
Fake chats claiming to be from the Irish African community are being disseminated by the far right in order to suggest that violence is imminent from #BLM supporters. This is straight out of the QAnon and Proud Boys playbook. Spread the word. Protest safely. #georgenkencho


There is co-ordination across the far right in Ireland now to stir both left and right in the hopes of creating a race war. Think critically! Fascists see the tragic killing of #georgenkencho, the grief of his community and pending investigation as a flashpoint for action.


Across Telegram, Twitter and Facebook disinformation is being peddled on the back of these tragic events. From false photographs to the tactics ofwhite supremacy, the far right is clumsily trying to drive hate against minority groups and figureheads.


Declan Ganleyโ€™s Burkean group and the incel wing of National Party (Gearรณid Murphy, Mick Oโ€™Keeffe & Co.) as well as all the usuals are concerted in their efforts to demonstrate their white supremacist cred. The quiet parts are today being said out loud.


The best thing you can do is challenge disinformation and report posts where engagement isnโ€™t appropriate. Many of these are blatantly racist posts designed to drive recruitment to NP and other Nationalist groups. By all means protest but stay safe.
