...This will b a shorter post because I am at the library (Yes, I was discharged from the hospital yesterday.) and that phone really may be now headed for Trigger and Mr. Ed's present place...........This may only occured to me later, but, in fact, something I left in the hospital room might be thrown away (And, BTW, remember my point about the nurse possibly feeling hurt if she saw her gift trashed?) ~ because I get put in isolation units every time I'm at that hospital . The thing is, some years ago I had MRSA, and, though it's long cured now, their policy (They have repeatedly stated that to me.) is that someone who had MRSA gets treated as if they still have it every time he is back there after that, tho', again, I DON'T HAVE IT ANYMORE...it was cured a ways ago.
They told me the last stay before this to only walk outside of my room when I had a brand-new, just put on, gown, when I walked the ward in my gow ~ Although my strttet clothes were okay too, oddly enough . The staff was not that strict about enforcing in on that ward ~ But, in general in fact , there was a thing of anyone who came into my room for any length was supposed to put on a hospital gown/whatever of some kind. This is sounding maybe too SF movie space landing depiction, it wasn't as extreme as that...but they did do that because of my past MRSA. And they did that with other people too.
So, I think a in-condition book I left might j est be thrown out, " just in case ".
I once again got sent to that cheap motel. For two nights, Ends tom'w morn., Sat. I am now planning to spend what would be about 2/3 of my now available money (based on the last time I bought extra days) because, flawed though it is, I am somewhat pained after gbeing up for any length of time . I'll try and get two more days there, Monday --- who knows? I really thing if I returned to a being-out-all-day with all of my luggage ituation again, I might degenerate again.
I am hoping for a rescue from the East Coast lawyer - HOPING - who I have been writing about getting the things of my brother sent,and whom I have now asked to send me some funds and especially arrange for me to have the motel room - Not much but I've got it now . - to staty there and rest some and, especially if/when I can get a new phone, start searching and doing initial calls in Santa Cruz, anyway, about storage facilities ~ However, this was a TOTALLY out of left field idea of mine, I have no real reason that even my logical argument that, just out of the hospital and still unsteady and having trouble staying up at length, he would actually respond to my pointing out that, handicapped and carless, I, though I thing I can find a storage place, I need some stability and to be able to, having that stability , start on storage-looking - I've mentioned my hospital stays and that I'm handicapped and carless and that the pre-hospital place is not suitable for me to immediately recover some, but I have not said that it was a shelter or that I'm HL . I DO NOT KNOW AT ALL that he will respond to this ~ oe, doing so, in time - This is an add-on to a letter I set him about a week ago asking to move forward and a resend of it yesterday?? - He didn't respond to any of them. There is ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE that this will work. I just want to get a little good stability under me and try to move forward, and, based on the sitation now, I thought this might impress him.
He's not a fatherly figure, there's no guarentee that it will.
As I have said, I could just use good stability ~ I have tended to not be allowed that for DECADES and DECADES of my life, rushed/ordered " here!! !! ! " " No, There!! !! ! " and having the rug pulled out from me OVER AND OVER GAIN ~ That phone really seems to have reached its last round-up, podner, and I don't have do$h to replaceit now, I am at the library now using their computer=s (better) but I suppose I won't have the dough-ray-me for a new device for at least a week ~ And, since I tend to buy minutes by the month I've tnded to do the buying at the beginning of the month, so succeeding purchases will also be " first of the month " -financed.
There. Now some of you can return to screeching at me for being insufficiently Love Me Tender to a pair of dimestore gloves and telling me " How dare I!! !! !! !! ! " want to have any possessions at all .

Gloves don't take up much space. And you can wear them on cold days. Trashing them makes no sense whatsoever.

I already outlined why they weren't of use! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR ME THAT YOU SHOULD TELL ME WHAT TO DO?!?! !
I suppose I'm not supposed to get angry at people ~ But DROP THE SUBJECT ALREADY.

Sorry, must have missed it in a poorly typed rambling rant somewhere...

ASS-P: Sometimes, people just want to get a rise out of you.

They WANT you to get angry. They are entertained by it.

I know. Because the exact same thing used to happen to me.

That was never my intent, I assure you.

...Which you can't be bothered to read, eh?

ASS-P is....ASS-P.

He doesn't respond to direct criticism. I don't think he trusts it. This might be because of what he's experienced in his life.

The best thing to do in his situation is to help him with practical things. Yes, do call him out if he gets nasty. But the emphasis should be on encouraging him, rather than criticizing him.

I think his bad typing is (mostly) caused by the lousy equipment he uses, plus (perhaps) the speed of his typing, combined with the fact that he has to type something in a certain time in order for it not to be "lost."

This is a very Maslow type of situation. He has to get his basic needs met----before we can address needs "higher up" on the Maslow Pyramid.

Please refrain from mocking or bullying ASS-P. I would like to see you guys survive on the streets without a home. It is already hard enough for many autists to live independently when they can.

ASS-P's been f****d 8 ways from Sunday in this life. Not all of his problems are his own doing. Far from it. Think about how he communicates with people here on this forum.. do you really think he has an abundance of friends in real life to chat with? To vent to? to get any kind of guidance from? Not likely. This place is one of his only connections to anything & anyone, so we tolerate his ASS-P ways because WP is good for him.

I feel like ASS-P can be a most amiable fellow when hanging out with fellow comic book enthusiasts.

But apparently not here on WP.

My posts today have been in DEFENCE of his rudeness towards me, yet I just received a message with a "board warning" for "bothering ASS-P."

Bizarre!

I don't believe ASS-P bears grudges against individual people, really.

He might get upset with them for a little while---then the grudge goes away.

Just "hang out" with him more. I think he'd appreciate it.

If he tries to recruit you to send him stuff or something, just say "no."

He's not the appreciative sort, really. I've offered him help at my time and expense and he's stated in this thread that he doesn't trust me, as if I've done anything to prove I'm untrustworthy. I was also very clear in pointing out that it'd be impossible for me to give his lawyer contact any negative instructions of what to do with ASS-P's inherited photos because no lawyer is going to throw out items w/o the express consent of the person involved. But he's paranoid and, well, ASS-P, so for some reason he thinks I have ill will against him and would communicate something different to the lawyer than I've stated. Meanwhile, I've been transparent about exactly what I'd say on ASS-P's behalf with his approval and consent.

I know what you mean.

He's gotten mad at me, too.

Probably the best thing is to let him cool off for a while.
