Artificially upbeat neurotypical person: "You always look so angry"

Me, who had actually been having a good day: "Thanks for reminding me of how abnormal I am to NT types, implausibly upbeat person."

[P] I juat caught wind of some more tribal British stupidity. I'm trying to avoid the cretins for the good of my health. I really am.

"Ugg! Me Mr. Ugg! Me vote Refawm 'cuz illy-gal imm'gunts get da benny-fits and da free NHS doctuhs!"

How, Mr. Ugg? Illegals aren't in the system, they can't claim benefits or free healthcare. In fact, you mooncalfish caveman, immigrants pay insurance while on the road to citizenship. FFS.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 929 , Thursday 14/05/2026

Thursday started at around 7am.

Breakfast was had & chores done then we had to go to the funeral of Mrs S’s uncle who sadly died around the same time as her mum, but we only found out about this last month!

It was a lovely service, the sun making an appearance to see him off in style.

This afternoon has been a quiet one, I spent it trundling around the Milky Way.

We had a naughty Chinese takeaway for tea & very nice it was too!

Final Thoughts.

Not a bad day all told, but not much energy. I will have to see if I can find some spoons to go shopping tomorrow.

Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

The 'wake up at 5 a.m.' advice skips the part where you actually went to sleep.

It also forgets the three hours you spent replaying everything you said wrong in a conversation six years ago.

[P] I know it might be terifying, but voting shows that the moral are a tiny minority. A thousand moral voices on social media might seem like an infinite number, but it's a speck compared to the allistic tribal hyperconforming majority who're hungry for some atrocity.

We live in a world of mostly monsters. I'd love to be wrong. But the slayers are hungry for their meat, and it'll be worse than anything I can imagine.

Moving to a new instance is a sly excuse to write an #introduction post (I never did one before).

I'm Drew, pleased to meet you. I'm male, middle aged, child-free, a Brit but don't feel like one, living in 🇵🇭 for the last few years. I'm #neurodivergent with quite severe #CPTSD. You can ask me about it, I'm trying to get better at discussing it. I'm married, I work in #tech and I love animals and nature.

Almost forgot! I have a single-page personal profile website at https://drewtowler.me which expands on all this.

[P] Atrocity is around the corner. And it's going to be the worst yet. Gaza is just an appetiser.

Let's see if I'm wrong.

[P] You're delusional. Atrocity is the end-point. It's only once the monsters have had their fill of out-group meat, and they feel sated, does the allistic tribal hyoerconformist majority back off. History repeats this over & over. I'm scared for LGBTQ+ people, neurodivergent people, disabled people, and obviously minority ethnicities. Right now the allistic majority is building to critical mass, they're hungry for meat.

[P] Every. Single. Fucking. Time. It's happened, because the tribal hyperconformist allistic majority wants it to happen. I see monsters, I call monster. Tribal hyperconformity can only lead to atrocity. If it isn't gas chambers, it'll be bioweapons, or they'll actually find a way to melt people. There's no excuses to be made. If you don't think allistic tribal hyperconformity won't result in gas chambers or worse?

[P] They all want ICE. The allistic majority wants thugs pulling legal immigrants and long-time citizens of other ethnicities out of their homes, to shove them in squalid detention camps where they're treated as non-human. Where the fuck do you think that escalates to? If you know your history, it's fuxking gas chambers. "That'll nsver hapoen!" has been said repeatedly about this racist rise, and guess what?

[P] If there's one thing the past decade has made clear—with the rose of Reform, MAGA, and the rest of the far-right—it's how tribal, cruel, selfish, greedy, hyperconformist, and actually stupid the allistic majority is. This majority is voting FOR rape, FOR abuse, FOR genocide, FOR fucking melting people. They're always secretly hoping for gas chambers to kill the out-groups with. Stop making excuses for monsters.

Is there anyone who makes clothes, available in the UK, with soft seams that won't make me want to not wear them because of the intolerable scratching?

[P] "Turkeys voting for Christmas" is tbe best, most apt and on-the-nose description of Reform voters I've ever seen.

"Ugg! Me Mr. Ugg! Me racist 'cuz da imm'gunts make prublems, make Ugg poor."

No, Ugg, all of those problems will only get worse under Farage. Your problems are caused by the very rich, not "the browns," but you're a stupid caveman and you don't know anythig. You're about to get refuk'd like the rest of us.

So, let's talk about 1976. At the time, I was in a "special needs" program at a school way bigger than the 2 room village schoolhouse I had been attending. The teachers at the new school encouraged all the students to write essays about the #AmericanRevolution -- the prize being a trip to Philadelphia to participate in the #Bicentennial. I managed to win the contest with a very graphic essay about #GeorgeWashington's troops in #ValleyForge (mentioning the possibility of #cannibalism -- one of my obsessions at the time, along with Zombies). Anyhow, in order to participate in the parade, we had to dress in period clothes. I *insisted* on having a boy-man's uniform (which I made in a very public interview with the local press), and I got my way! And marched with the boys/men, with the fife and drum squad and flag bearers (I played the flute). Unfortunately, I was there by myself, with no family to take photos of me. But here's a photo of the group I was part of. And bonus... I got to spend the night at Valley Forge, telling my tales of Revolutionary cannibalism!

I’m trying to get better at juggling both hyperfocus while painting/making stuff and self care and that tightrope is really really challenging for me to walk! 😂 I keep falling off, dammit! 🤣

Why is this so hard?! 😆😅
