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.

Please don't imagine that you're the first to suddenly pop up and decide their new mission is to protect us poor feebs from our own bad judgement. It happens every few weeks.
I'm all grown up, I look after myself pretty well, and I don't need you to protect me. But hey, thanks for deciding my life will be better with you looking after it.

For me, it's brown noise. Noise in all frequencies, but adjusted for human hearing sensitivity so it's balanced.
@PeteLittle1970 @actuallyautistic I've listened to various noises very briefly - white, pink, brown etc. I find natural sounds, or ambient music much more effective. I think I need a bit more variation than the pure noise. But I don't feel confident in saying this as I've not done more than listening for a moment and going on my first reaction.
Ocean and rain sounds, and distant thunder are incredibly soothing to me.
I don't see a link to your tracks in your profile - is there somewhere where one can listen to them?

I'm getting ready to go upstairs now, but I'll leave this:

I think you're on a mission, and that's totally valid, and I think you're asking good questions. But I'm not the guy to ask them of. I'm not on a mission, and I don't have the energy for one right now.

If you didnβt already love Fani Willis, love her for this simple clause:

I didn't know that about colors. I was grilled on how I'd managed to pick sofa pillows at a store halfway around the world from our living room. Well, because they'd match the couch. I mean, anyone can see they'd match, right? Look at 'em.

Autism is a physiological difference in the brain/nervous system. Our brains work differently.

I don't think he's talking about a cause, it's more "this is why".
For me, all my life I've wondered why am I like this? Why does that always happen to me? Why can't I just make friends/get along with people/feel comfortable in crowds?
Because I'm autistic. Not bad, not stupid, not broken, just autistic.

@pathfinder @markusl @sentient_water @hosford42 @Tooden @actuallyautistic @neurodiversity How does it explain it? Autism is just a name for that cluster of traits that we already knew we had, it doesn't reveal anything about a cause.

How 'bout you stop? This place existed before you decided to grace us all with your presence, and it's managed to keep going without you controlling who is allowed and who isn't, and what is allowed and what isn't.
Put another way: you're not the boss of... well, anything here, really. Stop pretending you are.
One problem with leaving the birdsite is that I had built up a reasonable list of illustrators to follow there, and I really haven't here. But I bet they're around. If you're a #fantasy or #sciencefiction or #comedy #illustrator, especially if you're interested in commissions from an author, give this post a like so I can check out your work. Or recommend me someone in the comments. Or boost this so more people see it. Or just tell me what good hashtags I should be following.

You must have found the detailed instructions. Mine were all:
Head on down that way, until you see a place with a blue door. If you see the red door, you've gone too far. When you see the blue door, cross the street, and there should be a hydrant there. If there isn't, you've got the wrong blue door. But don't pass the place with the red door, cause that's too far.

I hate white Supremacy just as much. We got years of death threats and vandalism when we moved into a formerly restricted "white" suburb in 1971. That was just for being brown, I can't begin to understand how bad it is for black people.
Anti-cult music therapy: A trans rights song
High school sound track: Section: Forbidden music. Subsection: Andrew's boom box collection. This song is called My First Christmas As a Woman. It's a punk track, and it may not even appeal to my trans friends. But, I'm putting it here anyway, because it survived the anti-cult library purge.
