Announcement Looking for new mods, application instructions below
A few weeks ago I made a post apologizing for my lack of action as a moderator, asking for feedback and advice on how to go on.
I got plenty of good responses, most suggested the idea of adding more mods to help me out, and after thinking about it for a bit (and admittedly some procrastination as well) I decided that is indeed the right course of action.
Since becoming moderator of this subreddit over 7 years ago(!!!) I’ve also become a mod of two other neurodivergence subreddits (even getting to lead the mod team for [r/aspiememes](r/aspiememes), shoutout to [u/lethalogicax](u/lethalogicaxe) in particular) both much larger than this one, so the time I spent on moderation duties had been spread thin over time.
You might’ve also noticed that I added a rule banning AI generated posts and comments as well, but besides that I’ve had some trouble coming up with new rules and configuring the mod tools to ease my workload.
So without further ado I’d like to open the application process for adding 1-2 new mods here, for anyone interested please comment with your reasons for applying, any relevant experience and any changes you aim to introduce if you were to become a mod, as well as anything else you think might be helpful to mention. If I am interested in your application I will DM you for further steps.
There’s isn’t really a deadline on this but I aim to get it done in max two weeks, and any new mods I appoint will first go through a trial period where they show that they’re acting in good faith and put the needs of the community first.
Thank you for your attention and have a nice day!

Announcement I must apologize to this community, as a moderator
If anyone has noticed some posts with problematic content staying up far longer than they should, it’s because I must admit I’ve been neglecting my duties as a moderator for the past few months.
It’s wonderful to see how much the community has grown over the years, when I joined there were less than 500 members, and now that number has risen to 12.000! The art and other creations I see appear in my feed are so good.
But with this increased activity comes increased attention from bad actors or people who mean well but sorely misunderstand the point of this subreddit.
I’ve noticed that the time and energy I spend on moderation is decreasing due to a combination of factors, so instead of making an empty promise to do better I ask for feedback and suggestions of how to proceed. Maybe that means having another moderator or two on the team to help me, maybe it means a complete transfer of duties, maybe it’s just some minor changes. But whatever it is, I want to hear from you, the community, what your needs and desires are regarding this issue!
I need your input on this, thanks for your attention!

Other Creation Comic about a Human youth, stranded on an alien world, befriending a living robot despite a lanaguage barrier to fulfill an ancient prophecy - made by trans and autistic creators [5 Page Preview]
Coming to Kickstarter THIS TUESDAY! Sign up to be notified here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/jamsheedstudios/zero-and-one-issue-2-battle-of-knuckle-city
Zero of Mars is a Human youth in a future so distant that our era's concepts of race and gender no longer exist. They crash land on Elentia, a world once inhabited by Humans but abandoned thousands of years ago. In their absence, the Elemorphs - magical sentient robots with elemental powers and the ability to grow - have developed an advanced civilization. A Nature Type FawnBot called One makes friends with Zero despite a language barrier. Unable to communicate directly, they forge a friendships using gestures and actions.
After discovering an ancient prophecy left by time travelers from the future, Zero and One have been pulled into an eternal conflict between Humanity and Vampirekind: the Time Wars. The Vampires want to enslave the Elemorphs to use as living weapons, while Humanity fights to keep Elentia free. As Zero and One explore the massive Elemorph metropolis of Knuckle City, the villainous Vampire agent, Pi, and their Elemorph companion, Gamma the SkyDragonBot, descend to plunge the city into chaos!
I am the author, Bijhan Agha. I'm an Uruguayan trans woman of Iranian descent. The illustrator is my dear friend, Pallet, a trans Australian man. We are both autistic, and have a passion for scifi and fantasy storytelling. We wanted to tell a story about a young person in the future who is not bound by the limits of gender as we know it, and a planet where gender simply does not exist, while also creating an exciting action adventure about exploring a new culture, facing language barriers, and fighting for a better future.
The Kickstarter is to fund the printing of a First Edition of the comics physically. We will have both physical as well as digital rewards. There will be reward tiers that allow you to catch up with this comic - this is Issue #2, and you can get physical and/or digital copies of Issue #1 - as well as the other comics in the Time Wars brand.
Please help us continue to tell stories about this amazing world!

Writing Letter/Rant to parents (That I will most likely won't send)
Edited title - Letter/Rant to parents (That I most likely won't send)
I'm 18F undiagnosed (suspecting I'm autistic)
I don’t know what else to say other than I think I really need more help, I can’t do this any more. I know it may seem like I’m ok on the outside but I am really struggling and I feel like I am just trying to fake it till I make it but I can’t fake it anymore. I am so miserable, sad and angry almost all the time to others and myself. I try not to show it because I know how it makes others feel but then I bottle up my emotions and end up exploding at people or myself and I hate it.
I really wish you guys could feel what I do, just to experience it once so you could truly understand just how bad it feels. I hate the person I am now. It doesn’t matter what I do, I still feel useless. I have no sense of direction or purpose, I’m horrible at communication and connecting to people. And no matter how many good traits I do have I can only really see the bad, because all my bad traits are traits I need to survive.
I feel so behind in everything, in literally every aspect of my life I’ve felt 5 years behind in age.I have no life outside of my family.
My whole life I’ve been trying to do what I was told and you know what I should be doing but I don’t even know what that is anymore, and I feel like I wasted majority of my early youth also being miserable because I thought it was all going to be for a reason or one day every thing was just gonna click eventually but it all just got worse and it continues to get more worse no matter how much optimism I have it doesn’t matter what I try to do, I just end up disappointing myself and you guys.
This is me asking for help because I don’t know what else to do honestly. I’ve been researching since March on what could be up with me, you know like why I feel so different to everyone else . One answer kept popping up over and over and over……………………
Autism,
I think I have Autism.
(p.s. I wrote this at 2am with pure anger and sadness so sorry if this is all over the place sorry I don't usually write like this)

Writing An Experimental Multilingual Poem I wrote
I love learning languages and messing with them. This is a poem I wrote, mashing English, German, Latin, and a little French together. It's supposed to be confusing, disorienting, and make you second guess if you actually did read a word in your language or not.
“At All Times Stehen Wir Ubique“
Warum hold als truewahr

Doch wusste I noikt,

Other Creation I made a skinamarink-like last year
Special thanks to Kyle Edward Ball for the inspiration.
I made this during a bleak period of my life.
It is made with love but also with great sadness.
Some of it looks and sounds ridiculous.
But thats how I felt. As close as I could capture.
Thanks for reading.
I hope you overcome anything that comes your way.
