I love you. I hope you get everything you need.

Edit: I’m sorry. Take care.

Most people don’t have ADHD. You had to do something most people don’t have to do. You adapted to your condition, and without support. I’m sorry you didn’t get the recognition you may have benefitted from as a child.

Recognizing my disability doesn’t make me helpless or lazy, it helps me get the resources that enable me to perform like the world expects.

Being 6ft tall can give you joint and heart problems in later life. Flat-chested women can be excellent swimmers. Having eyes too far apart might make you an unsafe driver.

What we are seeing is a symptom of a bigger issue. Yes autism spectrum folks feel strange and different and terrible. Living with that gives us a resistance to those who would attack us sometimes. In this case, the autism has been weaponized into supporting fascism. OP has been hoodwinked and taken advantage of for a social media spectacle.

However, no member of this community should feel justified in trusting anyone that would threaten the livelihood of the disabled. OP’s ideas are not well thought out, but they are still reaching out for help. We are the ones that should be giving support for our fellow autist, not the MAGA.

This situation sucks. For all of us. For liberty and justice for all.

I’m glad your owner told you that you’re doing well. Why are you posting here? Do you have a question? Justify your contribution to disabled homelessness elsewhere. This community isn’t your landlord support group.

hey friend, we are kinda coming across as too abrasive and too uncompromising here. Which can be good traits, don’t get me wrong.

The engine teardown videos are readily available to you, and your local library is a great place to learn. It is not that person’s responsibility to show you how to teach yourself. The use of the term “tribal knowledge” here is out of place and is loaded with implications about race/class. That knowledge is available to you, if you express the initiative to get it.

I think I once found a college lecture on youtube about software development, would you like me to share a link for you? I’m all for literacy, but let’s try to think about other ways to communicate when our correspondents are showing agitation through words like “hell” and “shit”

Please let me know if you would like me to explain anything further. Social interactions confuse me often.

I struggle with these feelings too. I’m always on the lookout for someone expressing distress and I tend to attend to their needs at the expense of my own work. It is important for me to recognize when someone actually wants assistance or if I’m just “mansplaining,” which would be annoying and demeaning.

Sometimes, if I don’t understand the problem myself, I find it very interesting to learn how to solve it, and the experience is usually mutually beneficial.

Why do the representatives of this place not reflect the wishes of their constituents?

It seems we’ve been taught strict expectations about “functioning.” When a machine doesn’t get the resources it needs to do its function, it does not function, and it is not expected to function, if the mechanics are understood. We know a lot about what people need (still more to discover) but we’re expected to “function” without having our needs met.

Yikes, that sounds bad. Can you provide a source?

I did no such thing.

There may be a sore spot after centuries of dehumanizing abuse.

Shame :(

🔥🥵🔥 i thank you this is lovely

That’s why I said “please”

Your human reasoning assumes all existence is human, I feel like we may be seeing a slight bias here.
