I’m going to pretend you’re asking in good faith and would genuinely like to learn.

“Stimming” is “sensory stimulation,” or self-regulating behavior. When used in this context it’s not sexual. It helps (typically neurodivergent, but I’d argue most) people better process the environment around them by having a sensory input they can focus on.

Examples of stimming are hand-flapping (waving one’s hands around), clicking a pen, listening to music, tapping one’s toes, chewing gum, just to name a few. I’m willing to bet you have stims that you may not even realize, and that’s perfectly okay.

TL;DR: Stimming = fidgeting that helps you focus/calm down, it’s not perverted.

Reminds me of the dorkwad who leaked military(?) secrets to his friends on discord a couple years ago. I think he was about their age at the time too, which tracks.

How dare we want our country to be better and for our fellow citizens to not die in cartoonishly preventable ways? /s

I love your optimism.

Doing difficult, noble work OP. Thank you for keeping local community resources running.

You’d be surprised how much free time and headspace people are willing to dedicate to the benefit of corporations in the name of defending their special interests.

Unfortunately the live-rotting musk-scented fleshlight probably enjoys this sort of attention.

Still funny though.

That bird has more self awareness than most humans combined

I feel like I’ve been violently ripped back in time to 2011. This is glorious
