  1. Software Dev: No One will ever Break This Thing in This Way.

    Me: *I PROMISE you*. If You hand this to a #Neurospicy person with a Hyper-fixation, they WILL DISCOVER NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAYS TO USE AND BREAK THE THING.

  2. I just.. I'm severely unnerved by incurious people.

    They just seem to float through life never asking any questions ever and HOW DOES THAT EVEN WORK?

    'No Thoughts Head Empty' is a meme for crying out loud!

    Is this a Neurospicy thing?

    Do all the Neurotypicals just not think to ask questions ??

    I feel quite quite mentally unstable just considering it.

  3. [TLDR Hyperfous Vs Hyperfixation ]

    Kinda hate how my brain latches onto a Thing & decides 'THIS IS YOUR HYPER FIXATION NOW'

    It's not the same as hyperfocus which (feels like) it usually involves some active participation from me?

    I am locked into thing because I like the Thing Vs I am compelled to do Thing and cannot stop thinking of thing?!

    Am prob explaining this wrong but - yeah

    Plus hyperfocus project completion depression is apparently real ?

  5. So these last few days have been a very :

    " No.

    I *know* that this is not my Circus and Definitely NOT My Monkey's - even though every fibre in my being is screaming at me to Make This Better For You , thereby making it My Problem and just -

    No. "

    I don't enjoy witnessing other's emotional pain and the People Pleaser in me *very much wants* to FIX IT, but I can't and I should not Try.

  6. Sometimes, Non NeuroSpicy people can be teeth gnashingly, amazingly, ~ InFuriAting ~ with their

    ' Well Actually's '.

    Oh this long list of everyday traits and life experiences has *one thing* on it, that you experience rarely - once in a blue moon, in a Leap Year?

    Please, Shut Up and Go Away.

    (Gah!)

  8. I did 90% of ALL The THINGS today and now I am the knackered.

  9. This morning I (almost) invisibly mended hole in my stretch leggings

    Just sewed a headband (out of a scuba material!! It's v stretchy and slippy and goes through an Overlocker like silk !? ) and made some Rock Cakes (currently in the oven).

    This morning I prepped some French bread (currently proving), and now planning dinner..

    Yesterday I struggled all day to watch a 15 min instructional video on youtube

    Also TWO loads of laundry

    Who the hell am I ?

  10. Dear fellow autistic people how do you feel about communicating your needs because I've come to realize I just really hate it and I'm trying to figure out why

  11. Every now and again, someone asks a question on a forum that I am a member of, and that question lies precisely within my area of expertise - and then it feels like the Horn of Gondor has sounded specifically for me.

  12. Aha!

    Euclidian space mystery solved!

    *Utterly forgot about* the *two entire stacks* of books which I was routinely moving from the office desk to the bedroom every night/morning.

    Only remembered because I just looked at my desk and thought .. hmm something is missing what.. ? Oh yeah.

    SO!

    A large amount of decluttering DID take place and something WAS in reality achieved

    🤦🏾‍♀️

  13. How ?

    It took me about six hours but I cleared a bookshelf - measuring about 18 inches of space - and placed books from the floor onto the shelf AND YET I STILL MYSTERIOUSLY DO NOT HAVE ANY FRIGGIN FLOOR SPACE!

    Has my office morphed into a Non- Euclidean space?

    I actually *removed things from the room* and put Large Bulky Empty boxes into the trash!

    This is cukoobananapants!

    Gah !

    😮‍💨😶

  14. Desperately trying to declutter my office so stacks of things don't kill me (only partially hyperbole) and my main problem is that to properly declutter the space I need to *desperately not be me* and I don't know how to do that.

  15. Interesting article. I wish more teachers were aware of it (I know some are, but, unfortunately, some do demand respect without apparently earning it)

  16. Random #accessibility question surrounding the eye contact content warning: Does this actually help any of you? Does animal eye contact in pictures upset you? I'm not sure I've ever seen anybody say it's helpful but of course we'd like to know how best to do what we can! :ablobcatheartsqueeze: #autisim #neurodiverse

    Edit: Added a poll so you don't have to reply to me if you're nervous. This is specifically for folks who we generally assume do struggle with eye contact.

    The new analysis does not confirm autism's underlying causes, or identify specific subtypes as other research has attempted, but reveals a more generalized gut Microbiome profile that seems to be consistent among those with qutisim.

    Good - Hey Conversation, this is a piece of shit and you should feel bad for publishing it and ever associating Musk's behaviour with autusim. You throw so many under the bus by even suggesting it.
