So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

It's good, but it skips a century or so:
"In 1896, a seminal paper by Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius first predicted that changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels could substantially alter the surface temperature through the greenhouse effect. In 1938, Guy Callendar connected carbon dioxide increases in Earth's atmosphere to global warming."

In 1992, Sinead O'Connor tore a picture of Pope John Paul II in half during a performance on SNL in protest against generations of abuse toward children within the Catholic church.
Bless you, Sinead.
Welcome to Heaven.
It is with great sadness that I read, we have lost Irish singer SinΓ©ad O'Connor.
I will never forget the first time I turned on MTV in 1990, and her incredible voice filled the room with her everlasting words βNothing compares to youβ.
In so many ways, nothing compared to her.
SinΓ©ad was only 56 years old.
Transgender patients are suing Vanderbilt University Medical Center
Itβs the hospital that gave away their records to Tennessee's AG via bogus legal request
The same bogus request that other red state AGs are using to gain more records
If there is a political party that targets a minority, puts them on a list, tracks their every movement, and uses them as a scapegoatβ
what would you say about that political party?
Tim Scott,
Sit your self-loathing, Stepin Fetchit ass down. Youβre as nauseating as you are shameless. Truly, youβre a gutless wonder pandering to a racist, bigoted Republican base.
Like your party and its βstandardβ bearer, Trump, youβre tragically lacking in decency and dignity.

Do what I did - marry someone who likes to shop for clothes. I haven't had to go clothes shopping for 30 years.

I don't think it's intended as an insult, it's just that autism isn't "a" thing, it's a wide range of possible things, with or without attendant other things.
I'm autistic, and just looking casually at my life, you might decide to group me with allistics. It's in the details where things get fuzzy. My neighbor's son is autistic and is going to an entirely different school than his siblings, so they can meet his needs.

I've seen that video.
And yet, somehow, I doubt the CEO did 364 times as much work as the delivery drivers and warehouse workers.

Over the last few weeks I've had many blood draws, and it's easy to tell when the person doing it knows what they're doing.
The phlebotomist at the hospital, I didn't even feel it. The nurse putting in the IV, it felt like she was taking a core sample, and it took 5 tries before she found the vein without popping through the other side.

I write a *lot*, and I've had a good reception to it by the (very few) people who have read it, but I've never taken the next step and sent it out into the world. I don't think I'm strong enough for that.
Something to which I've never admitted, and here I am posting it publicly...
How many of we #ActuallyAutistics have quietly, secretly nursed the dream that we could reach people with some talent? Singing? Playing an instrument? Writing? Use some innate talent or skill to connect in ways we can't seem to manage otherwise?

Seen one of these posted without credit, so sharing some more here because they are amazing and I'd buy every single one of them if they existed.

In my head the character doing that is always transformed into Bette Davis.
One of the things that cracks me up about TV and Movies is when someone walks into a room and says, THIS PLACE IS A MESS, and there's a shirt on the floor, and three dishes in the sink.

I can break down the word monotropism, but I don't know what it's referring to. Whatever it is, I apparently have it.
Monotropism Score: 190 / 235
Average: 4.04
I did the Online Monotropism Questionnaire survey and my results are:
Monotropism Score: 222 / 235
Average: 4.72
This score means that you are more Monotropic than about 95% of autistic people and about 100% of allistic people.
