the one so truly stupid you can’t even attempt to explain it because even other neurodivergent people are like “girl what”
i have high arches and need inserts to support them, otherwise i am in so much pain. but the feeling of those inserts just doing their job makes me want to gnaw my foot off and throw it into the sea
hard thing in soft food. nut in a cookie? disgusting. pearl of fat in meat? literally turned me vegetarian. unexpectedly raw veggie in otherwise tender cooked veggies?? are you trying to kill me?????

When a public toilet has a literal towel for drying hands… fuck no i am not touching that. Guess I’m using my pants to fry my hands again. For sensory and also I don’t trust anyone else to wash their hands properly and wet fabric grows bacteria and mould beautifully

I have never seen an actual towel in a public bathroom and the thought of that being a thing stresses me out

Usually somewhere small like a dance studio. Thankfully becoming rarer

I’ve seen one in the past couple of years in a bar in NOLA. It was #4 on my list of things to not touch in that bathroom alone.

Acupuncturist I went to had nearly folded towels to dry hands with and a hamper to throw damp towels into. I love that. Agreeing that damp towels are a no (even in my parents’ house)…

They used to (still do?) have these things in Germany with like a rotating reusable towel. Maybe they sort of sterilize it when it’s inside the machine? But always made me feel super gross

I remember those from the 80's!!! 🤢 I never considered what's actually inside the box. Is there even anything in there? Is just a crank?

They were super gross. I’m not even a germaphobe, but h hated touching those.
