  1. This is absolutely, hands-down, no-contest the best Adam Savage video I've seen. And he's made some pretty freekin good videos.

    TLDR Never, ever say "Why don't you just…".

    That's a very good point and hits the nail on the head of why I deeply, deeply dislike some people. (I'm sure I'm guilty of doing this, too, sometimes.)

  2. CW: Mention of behavior that's on the spectrum.

    I guess it's an actual thing that people/friends meet each other regularly. As someone #onthespectrum this feels so far from my lived experience that it feels like I'm watching a movie.

  3. As much as I think/know/suspect this is an empire on the verge of failure, I'm relieved that someone using a pair of AirPods in the middle of a restaurant by himself in #nyc doesn't attract any attention.

  4. I am Autistic, no amount of criticism from anyone will change that.

    What can be changed is the ignorance surrounding the stereotypical views of what Autism Spectrum Disorder is.

    A spectrum meaning it cannot simplify a large group of individuals in just a few words.

    We are all uniquely different, and experience life as an Autistic person, differently. We may have some similar experiences or traits, but all humans do.

  5. If you have to go to your org's HR dept for accommodations for your #Neurodiversity, because your manager won't provide them, you may be working for the wrong manager (or org).
