Okay so long story short I'm into spiritual stuff and for like a year I wanted an ouija board so was like fuck it, I'll buy one. I bought one with my friends and we went to their house, I was respectful and obviously being spiritual made sure we opened and closed it properly, nothing happened and we didn't "feel" the planchette move. We opened it once, didn't work, closed it, thanked them. Opened it again, didn't thank them and by this point my friends were fucking around and pretending to move it and overall being disrespectful towards the spirits, planchette was knocked off the board (by us), we didn't thank it I don't think but I closed it. I'm just wondering if we will all be safe or atleast if I will? I'm just worried spirits will think we disrespected them and I honestly meant no disrespect and I also don't wish to invite any negative energy into my friends home or my own. We didn't use incense, sage or candles as we had none but 2/3 of us had crystal jewellery which hopefully counted as something.

At night it takes me ages to doze off bc I feel uneasy and get in my head, is there any simple things I can do to protect me ? In other words protect myself from any form of negative energy.

Neopronouns are a HUGE discussion within the lgbtq+ community and as a non binary (she/they) lesbian I wanna support everyone but I can't without understanding💔 some have the argument of "this is why they don't take us seriously" and such and idk neopronouns are so widely hated on but if that's how someone truly feels like they identify as that, then who am I to judge? Especially when my gender identity is hardly recognised either. I can understand pronouns like xe/xer and such, but when people's pronouns are actual objects it kind of stunts me, I've seen people say they identify as circuit or starself and I will happily use those pronouns for them with no issue, I just can't really grasp it. Like how do u come to terms with identifying as circuit and such? I mean this out of genuine curiosity and I just wish to understand this topic🤞🏻

Edit: u guys are HOSTILE oml. Got downvoted for thanking someone for explaining, got downvoted for asking what gender even was, got downvoted for saying queer people have never been taken seriously and all, got downvoted for saying that im NOT stirring the pot..like guys PLEASE chill out I was asking a question in a reddit community that's ABOUT asking questions. No need to come for me🥀

Obviously both ppl with autism and ocd are neurodivergent and I was just genuinely wondering if ppl with ocd experience similar things as ppl with autism (like overstimulating, sensory issues, etc), ik anyone can experience it but bc diagnosing and traits of ocd and autism get mistaken for eachother i was js wondering how similar they actually are in this aspect. And also like..ocd is so immensely underrepresented so u kinda know how ocd makes ppl act but not how ppl feel and all so this is me genuinely wondering ! Thank u if anyone answers, I'm curious to know ur guys' experiences and answers🫶🏼

Not exactly sure where to post this, but I was wondering if anyone knows any colour photographers I could use for artist studies and research?? Or websites I can use to search for colour photographers? (I've tried ART2DAY but it's not what I'm looking for) I've been looking for photographers who capture colour bc that's my theme but with a nostalgic, ethereal kind of vibe but yeah idk where to ask this so if this is the wrong community to ask this in I apologise in advance 💔💔

Does anyone else convince themselves that if u don't remember a page WORD FOR WORD (specifically for me with revision guides) then ull completely fail, and then bc im so convinced that I'm gonna forget it all since idk the smallest details I actually end up forgetting it💔💔 OR if it's not word for word then it's just straight up wrong
