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.

What do my #ActuallyAutistic comrades do when they wake up already having a bad day?
@nellie_m @chin @actuallyautistic
I do that at work in meetings. They'll start wandering off the topic - or worse, the whole meeting could have been an email - and I have no problem reining it back in.
A customer sent an email with questions about a current contract. The Systems Engineer sent out a meeting invite for next week, to "get on the same page", then forwarded us the email. It was basic stuff, just needed answers. I answered, customer is happy. SE canceled the meeting.
Winning!
@ScottSoCal @Dingsextrem @AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic I have definitely gotten something similar to this for being an atheist! And bisexual. And chronically ill. π΅βπ« It still sounds impossibly ignorant and weird.

Andrew Sullivan is a pathetic caricature of a human. That is all.

"i am Jewish!" - "Oh, you don't seem Jewish, you come across well"
"i am Black!" - "Oh, you don't seem Black, you come across well"
"i am an atheist!" - "Oh, you don't seem like an atheist, you come across well"
@AutisticAdam @actuallyautistic "i am a man!" - "Oh, you don't seem like a man, you come across well"
"I'm an academic" - "You don't seem like an academic, you come across well"
"I'm a good cook!" - "You don't seem like a good cook, you come across well"

Someone needs to take a deep breath. And a Xanax.
I owe you all the deepest and sincerest apology. It has been brought to my attention that my facts are enabling fascism and destroying democracy. I am especially sorry for the harmful facts stating that:
-Every month is National Potato Month.
-George W. Bush has a Foo Fighters tattoo on his back.
-Optimus Prime is the only heterosexual Transformer.
-The Lord of the Rings was filmed in New York City.
-Cherβs full name is Chernobyl.
I pray that you can all find it in your hearts to forgive me.

I can't feel your love for the sinner when all you do is throw your hatred for the sin in my face.
And "sin"? Really? WTF is that, anyway? Your imaginary friend gets his panties bunched because he doesn't like what I do with another consenting adult?
Did any of my #ActuallyAutistic comrades grow up misunderstood, bullied, and rejected in an insular religious community?
Iβve been there. Many of us here have been too. Youβre not alone.
Privileged whining
A used VW is not for people with no extra energy to spare. Stereotypical run-around at the dealership.
It's a 2022 VW ID.4 EV, with app connectivity. An app I can't use when the car says the original buyer still owns it. VW can't - won't - help. They suggested I contact the original buyer and ask nicely if she'll unregister the car. I'm guessing it's a repo, and I don't want to do that.
[sigh] I guess I'm taking it to the dealer for them to work out.

Oh, look, it's an uncharted dessert isle.
My local school district just fought off a hostile takeover by the local disgruntled nutbars, now they're writing unhinged letters to the editor. I'm writing back (excerpt):
Why? What possible difference could it make in my life how someone else chooses to be addressed? What possible difference could it make in my child's life? Or the letter writer's life? This is just the latest "crisis" manufactured by what used to be a political party.
With pride month coming up, I wanted to ask all my queer ally friends, what are y'all actively doing to push back against hate?
Putin has said repeatedly that he is fighting NATO expansion but in reality his delusions of grandeur have brought about that expansion. NATO has never been a threat to Russia, all Russia had to do was join the free world. #StandWithUkraine

I found I like wearing a mask, and have continued to wear one. Also hubs is immune compromised, so that's another reason - and the one I usually give if people ask me why I'm still wearing a mask.
