If you had been told the loud noises were not loud & the scratchy shirts were not scratchy, your whole life, you too would be a bit stubborn is all I'm saying.
So called “autistic rigidity” contributes to some of my greatest strengths: a commitment to integrity, honesty & fairness, internal consistency in my thinking, & focused dedication to my work. It comes with tradeoffs, like everything else in the world. #Autistic

Microsoft Recall screenshots credit cards and Social Security numbers, even with the "sensitive information" filter enabled

I suspect one part of many autistic "love languages" is "I made life easier for you so seamlessly you didn't see it" and relates to not having other folks have social or sensory discomfort.

Dear California,
Most tsunami are deeply unexciting to witness, looking more like a rapidly-rising tide than anything else. You cannot surf them.
& even if it doesn’t look like much, the current can still kill you.
