As an #ActuallyAutistc person I take 10.000 steps a day just by making two phone calls.

@actuallyautistic

When people say things like

*Just be yourself*
*You're okay the way you are*

...they usually don't expect my autism showing up like

~me obsessing over a minor detail
~freaking out over a change of plans
~talking excessively about my SI
~getting a migraine from heavy perfume, too bright light or auditory overwhelm
~not bearing to see a living soul
~having a meltdown bc of severely disrupted routines

You can be a little strange. But not *this* strange.

My latest image is a cross between psychedelic and whimsical, I'd say. It's part of my continuing series of cats and flowers...

@actuallyautistic @actuallyautistics @actuallyadhd I asked my ex-wife about her ADHD and she confirmed what I thought. During our marriage, we knew she had ADHD. However, we did not suspect I had autism, or knew the terms neurodivergent and neurotypical.

At any rate, it is now confirmed: all my romantic relationships have been with neurodivergent people of various types.

Not sure what to make of that. 🤔

She does not see the same correlation in her romantic relationships with other people.

No Labels is just another FASCIST ANTIDEMOCRATIC Republican group: “No Labels likely to back off third party bid if DeSantis emerges as GOP nominee”. #RepublicanFraud #RepublicanLies https://electionlawblog.org/?p=136818

Men, what's keeping you from looking like this?

@ScottSoCal @skybunnystanton @actuallyautistic
One con I attended had a morning session on how to meet people romantically. Around 40 in the room during self-introductions person opposite me said they'd been flirting with me for ages in the bar the previous night but I'd totally blanked them. Others nodded that they had noticed.

I DIDN'T KNOW! I thought they were just being friendly!

I now have a badge (pin) which says "Flirt blind. Make it clear".

@cadenza @doggle @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd

Is that a thing? I mean the "get my attention before telling or asking me something?"
I drive my wife crazy by either never hearing something she says she said, or noticing she's talking and saying "wait. Start over."

She says I don't listen and should pay better attention. One of my many flaws she hates.

Donald Trump—like others charged with Espionage—should be DENIED BAIL. Others facing far less than the 31 Espionage charges Trump is facing were denied bail bc they represented a risk to our nation. Same should happen to Trump. My article explains it: https://deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/donald-trumplike-others-charged-with

A distant cousin of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, the Nervous Rex, was much more introverted and skittish.

If you agree that today's MAGA GOP is the greatest FASCIST threat to our nation since World War II, then you will love my free newsletter, The Dean's Report. As opposed to the corporate media, I will NEVER "both sides" MAGA's FASCISM. Sign up here: https://deanobeidallah.substack.com

NATIONAL EMBARRASSMENT 🤬

Donald Trump was indicted on 37 Federal charges against the people of the United States.

His GOP competitors response - Stop picking on Donald..Whatabout Joe...Whatabout Hillary?

This Trump ass-kissing BS confirms that today's Republican party doesn't give a shit about this country.

They are so worried about losing a Trumper's trust that they are willing to throw our DEMOCRACY under the bus - SHAMEFUL & NAUSEATING to the CORE

I found Bible passage I didn't know existed. It seems to be ignored these days, so I thought I'd share (disclaimer: I am not a #Christian):

"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, NOR IS THERE MALE AND FEMALE, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."
~ Galatians 3:28

@ScottSoCal @actuallyautistic Try Headspace app? There's a free trial. Breathing, guided meditations. It doesn't take a lot of time. Worth a try when you have so much on your plate.
Wishing you well.

@ScottSoCal @actuallyautistic is “drugs” considered a Wrong Answer?
