I would probably fall in love if I got to hear a 30 minute, passionate info dump on a date.
Definitely. I’d totally fall in love. With coelacanths
I coelacant live without you babes
honestly, neurodiverse people shouldn’t date neurotypicals.
neurotypicals are too weird.
It’s true. They think we’re boring, we think they’re boring. I remember dating a definitely NT person and was baffled that they never wanted to do deep dives on any topics with me.
Who wouldn’t want to spend all weekend with their partner learning about the history of weaving and how various textile related machinery works, then cap it off by marathon playing Loom in robes?! Weirdos.
my NT ex said that me talking about my interest is abuse, yet she has no trouble abusing me till suicide.
If I may be blunt, I don’t think that’s because your ex is NT. It sounds like your ex is just an abusive asshole. I’m sorry you had to deal with their abuse.
honestly, I’m sorry for traumadumping, took some gummies and I’m not really me.
from now on I’ll aim to date neurodiverse people instead, we are more fun anyways.
No apology necessary, I didn’t even think of it as trauma dumping. Sometimes things just come up and I think that’s okay.
Enjoy your gummies!

I can offer little better advice. Similarly, find someone whose baggage complements yours, so you can have a matching set.
I looked everywhere in my house, couldn’t find anyone, not even under the couch
Idk if I’m ND or not because I can’t just info dump for 30 min. I’m just a boring guy that has a lot of interests but not enough knowledge in one specific subject about anything, I need some back and forth to keep conversation alive.
This is why I can’t date people who talk too much. They go on a 20 minute monologue and after I try several times to add input, and then they keep going, I get frustrated that I couldn’t say anything, and now the topic is changing so I’ll come off looking like I wasn’t listening to the whole thing so now I’m falling behind on what they’re talking, I catch up and find something relevant to say if they ever stop talking, but they don’t, so I lose interest and start thinking about something else. But after my train of thought hits a few stops and they’re still fucking talking and then I’m internally screaming at them to SHUT THE FUCK UP! And I Invision either my sudden brutal death or theirs.
Excuse me, neurotypicals aren’t weird enough. Normal is boring.
By “fish people” do you mean like Deep Ones?
I’m pretty sure my son would have been into this
Hang on, are special interests a mating display behavior???
There was a study indicating it was a common flirting tactic for some neurodiverse people and it kinda went viral.
Too specific. Needed at least a quick refresher on all ocean life first. Gotta let them get warmed up before you hit them with the good stuff.
It’s like this idiot had never heard of foreplay
Yeah you gotta leave them wanting more. If you give up the coelacanth on the first date, he doesn’t have a reason to come back for a second date.
Pardon, but did you just refer to our @Stamets@lemmy.world as an idiot?
…
Yes. Yes and report me, this would be the funniest ban I’ve ever gotten.
Well get ready to start laughing…
I do want to clarify, I did not request this and the only way I saw this was via that screenshot. I am so sorry lol
(It should be undone by the way)
You fucking snitch
Stuff it, adulterer.
I was only following orders [my own]
And proud of it <3
The cunt that reported me should be drawn and quartered.
Well you’d be the expert on the best punishment for that cunt for sure
Once you hit’em with the “coelacanth is closer related to us than gold fish” gambit, which leads to the “what is fish” manoeuvre, and finish them with a “whales are fish and birds are reptiles” pincer attack, they’re as good as gone.
Wait.
There’s no such thing as a fish.
Don’t be absurd, you silly fish.
Harkin, is that you?
Shhh.
Hank Green has helped me see the light. Whales are fish! Whales are fish!!!
If that was me, i’d text her right after the date asking to subscribe to fish facts.
Him* 🖖🏼
I’d spend 30 min back arguing on the correct pronouncing of qualiacontiks
Next time tip the scales in your favor with a more positive approach. Little less coelaCAN’Th, little more coelacCANth.
And absolutely no coelacanþ.
þis is þorn erasure!!!1! 😤
Me: Rambling about some esoteric topic that has no practical application to any part of my life.
My Wife: Listening intently even though she has no clue what I’m talking about.
I usually realize how long I’ve been going on when she starts smiling because she “thinks it’s cute.”
I don’t often feel like I’ve won the jackpot, but I sure did with this lady.
I also choose this guy’s alive wife.
A keeper for sure. Just be sure to respond in kind.
See, this one knows what she’s doing.
swoon
Their loss. Nothing sexier than someone being passionate about their interests. I’ll listen to someone tell me about their collection of severed heads if they’ve got passion for it
Same, passion is sexy
“aren’t you going to open your present?”
“If it’s a severed head I’m going to be seriously upset.”
I mean, if it’s a sufficiently cool severed head…
That was a Wayne’s world reference.
Coela can ths ?
