Oggi David Byrne, anche lui #aspie, compie 74 anni.
"L’autismo lo ha spinto a cercare un modo di comunicare che lo facesse sentire a suo agio, non con le parole e i comportamenti socialmente convenzionali, ma attraverso la performance. Lo stile unico di Byrne sul palco deriva dal fare ciò che lo faceva stare bene e che gli permettesse di comunicare al meglio la sua idea di musica e il suo stato d’animo. Oltre che sul palco, David Byrne osservava e descriveva il mondo convenzionale nei suoi testi con un punto di vista senza compromessi".

(Bear question: has anyone else noticed that they are no longer receiving notifications on the Mastodon website with Firefox? The bell suddenly stopped working.)

I think, after 20 years since my diagnosis as an #Aspie, I'm finally able to "pass" as a #neurotypical successfully if I choose.
I just had an epiphany that, to me at least, might be the "key" to unlocking this secret - small talk's banality IS important! #Gossip MATTERS! It's mandatory! We're about to get all #philosophy up in here!
See, you know how we all have two faces - the one that we show to the world, and the one that we keep to ourselves or our closest companions? The Outer Self and the Inner Self?
That's what's called the "#Human Condition", also known as the "Hedgehog's Dilemma" (reference - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedgehog%27s_dilemma ).
So summarize all of that for you, the long and short of it is this:
We are individuals that want to "join" with others (think "relationships" of all sorts).
That creates two concepts - The #Self, and The #Other
We want and desire for The Self and The Other to be one, to be merged, joined, ultimately. But, there's a couple of problems with that.
There's the fear of LOSING The Self when joining with The Other.
And, there's the fear of rejection from The Other. From being cast aside, forgotten, ignored.
So The Self, in defense of itself, creates The Wall. The Wall divides us, keeps us separated, but safe.
It's a translucent wall - and we control the opacity. Through it, we choose how much of The Self to show to The Other, how much we risk rejection, or fear of being absorbed and losing our individuality.
And that's where "small talk" comes into play. By using "small talk", #neurotypical people clear the opacity of their wall; risking vulnerability (just a little!) to The Other. Showing just a LITTLE bit more of The Self.
Every "small talk" conversation should be thought of in these terms:
The Self: "Oh Hi, Other! I'm a person! A real human with needs, desires, feelings, emotions. Are you?"
The Other: "Hey there Self, yeah I too am a real human with needs, desires, feelings, emotions! We should totally chill more often!"
The Self: "A'ight, lets hang, my man!"
The Other: "True Dawg, True. For sho!"
I have no idea why that turned into a #racist remake of the movie Friday at the end, but the point is this.
Every bit of small talk, every communication between you and another person about the minuscule happenings in your life, in their life... it's tiny peeks through The Wall. It allows for a collection of "mini-risks", that allow neurotypicals to "gel" and learn to start to trust each other, to build stronger bonds.
To really start to merge... just a little closer to each other.
Now that I know that... I don't think I'll see any public gatherings, informal meetings, get-togethers the same way again.
Or, to sum it all up in a horribly culturally-appropriating way:
"Chillin' wit yer homies makes you a pack, yo!
Family."

Looking at the main page of posts here on Mastodon, I see the replies that people I follow do to other users' posts, but the post they replied to does not appear. Is this normal? It seems difficult for me to know what they are talking about without having the reference to the original post and without having to be searching for it

Mirando la página principal de publicaciones aquí en Mastodon veo las respuestas que hacen personas a las que sigo a otras publicaciones de usuarios, pero no aparece la publicación original a la que respondieron. Es esto normal? al menos para mi es complicado saber de que están hablando sin tener la referencia del post original y sin tener que estar indagando 🐻❓

"Patients with atypical depression have shown to have higher rates of neglect and abuse in their childhood as well as alcohol and drug disorders in their family.[10] Overall, rejection sensitivity is the most common symptom, and due to some studies forgoing this criterion, there is concern for underestimation of prevalence.[21]"

I hate this. YOU hate that WE WERE ALREADY HERE BEFORE YOUWHY DO YOU HAVE SOME RIGHT TO DECIDE THAT PATHOLOGICAL DEFINITIONS CREATED BY ALLISTICS MUST REPLACE TERMS DESIGNED TO REJECT BEING THEIRS TO DELINEATE?
THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO DO?
