OMG I found my old headphones!

Thinking about the autistic teacher I saw on TikTok who brought joy to an autistic student by flapping hands with them a recess. Go ahead.

What’s wrong with that? I thought it was “know nut november.”

I just was scrolling like normal and randomly reminded of this place a few pages in.

Normal? What is normal? When I look around I see hundreds of ugly, strange, unique, and in a way mysteriously beautiful faces. My brain doesn’t like that everyone is so utterly imperfect, but my perfect image from which people deviate is not real. We are all disgusting humans and that’s ok. In the words of Eminem “we ain’t nothin but mammals.”

The only constant in this world is change. I wish you peace.

When things are going pretty good and all I can feel is that there’s a bit less pain than usual.

Yes but not me

If you think you’re autistic post away. I’ve done so much doubting in spite of fitting the criteria well, but I’ve posted there without diagnosis.

Waiting mode? Most of the time I just miserably do stuff unable to escape the misery of being conscious of time and anxious I will miss or waste something due to time blindness. Don’t exactly recommend.

Seconded. I swear one of the strongest rules I’ve seen in reality is that giving up is the only way many things you are waiting for will finally happen.

If you meditate right, seeking insight rather than temporary escape/pain numbing, you should ultimately come to the realization that all your experiences are “empty” and lacking depth or fixedness. When you understand that attachment leads to suffering and embracing transience lessens it, you may no longer fear losing your “self” (which does not exist as a solid entity). Fear of death can be used as fuel to seek “dying before you are dead.” You can be thankful for the miracle of being and live the rest of your life in contentment before all experience ceases.

Meditate or something (I know existential dread well and I know that’s not immediately appealing idk)

Actually my place as a trad transfem is as an eccentric religious leader.

I heard some redditor say they took a million college classes and were too smart for all of them and eventually decided to just be a stay at home dad. Based tbh.

Me on my way to give my lovely husband the strongest food he ever tasted because my autistic mouth is hyposensitive.
