    Favorite Shape?

    What's your favorite shape and why is it y our favorite shape? Mine is the spiral: because of this: "Unlike circles, which you can trace over and over and always end up in the same spot, spirals are ever-changing. They continue to loop outward as they progress, so you’ll never end up in the...

    Jobs sometimes suck

    Yes, I"ve been looking at potential apps, programs, sites that might help. Yesterday, I found Readwok--which allows you to see one sentence or paragraph at a time on the screen when you're scrolling. It works very well when it's a challenge to absorb all the words. I do have a job...

    Jobs sometimes suck

    I work in an office with all disabled people--as an advocacy person. I love my job. There are accomodations, I feel what I'm doing is meaningful and I like the people there. My boss and program director yesterday called me in for a"feedback session". They told me I'm being put on a...

    Sarcasm

    I finally figured out sarcasm! I think in the past people were being sarcastic to me and I didn't realize it--not always but sometimes. But I figured out how it works and it always is funny, at least to me...all you have to do is say the exact opposite of what is true. For instance, you go to...

    Autistics literally view the world differently

    I have this trait but I don't know why the whole prerequisite for non verbal communication necessarily always has to do with the eyes. I mean people are hung up on the whole thing of autistic eyes. I do have an issue with eyes in that they r very intense, bit body language is more than eyes...

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    If no one else has mentioned it I believe this is also called the doctrine of "total depravity", Kind of like "original " sin", it's the idea" that humans are utterly corrupt and that babies are born completey isolated from God, "stained by sin," just by virtue of their being born. And...

    "Original Sin"....Just Another term for our animal nature?

    What will happen? the child will grab a cookie. And will also lie about it without a twitch. Which itself is a theological issue.

    Are you treated differently

    At jobs I usually get fired or asked to resign for social or organizational reasons, even though I try. My job right now is the best because nearly everyone working there is disabled in some way. It's still confusing socially because I think I am treated differently, and the other person there...

    What do you do on repeat?

    That's funny--the movie I was thinking about was actually "The Other Side of the Mountain." Terrible movie that I loved. Really schmoozy.

    Autism is a "disease"?

    In terms of countering those terrible messages that autism is a disease--I definitely believe in the power of the pen. Some people also genuinely need to be educated.

    Autism is a "disease"?

    I explain it to myself saying: "there is autism and there are things that often go with autism that pretty much suck." Autism isn't itself a disease or sickness, it's just who we are and I enjoy being autistic. But at times things that can go with autism (ie Ehlers Danlos, gastro problems...
