pattern recognition is a blessing and a curse

I barely know what moxie is, and all my farming knowledge is from Harvest Moon games 🤷‍♀️

We will immanentize the renaissance.

still experimenting w/ editing (using Chaplin's first spoken role in "The Great Dictator" w/ a dash of Zimmer)
memetic power still feels untapped
apologies for the quality

After seeing this I checked my own, and oh yeah I'm literally one over for reactions

I am often more comfy with nonverbal communication, and liking casts is such an accessible form of that, but I guess I need to rent more storage to accommodate my own usage patterns?

Any other neurodivergent frens run into this?

I'm looking for a new online system for organising notes that works with my neurodivergent brain. Any recommendations?

I feel like glitch art and neurodiversity go hand in hand

What are your comfort shows?

For me, it's Star Trek (tng, ds9, voyager, and yes enterprise), plus Trailer Park Boys

Me when a well-meaning relative suggests that the house would be tidier if we just put things away when we'd finished with them.

Anyone else find traditional weddings to be a terrifying obstacle course for the neurodivergent?

✅ Unstructured social time
✅ Lots of random emotions
✅ Having to sit still
✅ Constant need to self-monitor to avoid offending anyone
✅ Lots of random overwhelming noise
✅ 10 hour masking marathon

Get in, we're avoiding people

Let's go fellow weirdos 🙃

This is pretty much what happens when my ADHD runs out of patience with my autism

GN Neurodivergent frens

Every time I've made progress with this, the person that insists it is OK, or to ask them for help anytime, they really want to help, has turned around and accused me of being a bad friend or using them

So, I've resolved to never asking for anything of anyone I know ever

Much easier

Reminder - you're not neurotypical. If you need to do things in a non-neurotypical way for them to work, that's just fine.

GN. I have both exercised and managed to eat 3 meals of things that an outside observer would recognise as food. I'm declaring today a win.

Really trying to overcome my struggles with how to market myself, but it's hard when you realize that you really don't understand normies and seriously don't know how to connect with ... anyone

Happy Mothers Day to all those who have complicated relationships with their mothers

Take care of yourselves first

Frustrations of being neurodivergent #2635. I've just accepted an offer for a new job after managing to convince 5 separate groups of people that I'm a functioning adult. It's exciting. I should be excited. Do I feel excited? No, I just feel overwhelmed and want to hide..

I'd been hugely into drum and bass for ages through raves and pirate radio, but Dieselboy was the first artist I got into purely online (I still haven't seen him live).

Are there any etiquette rules for this place? Should I be responding to every comment? Do I thank folx for degen, if so publicly or privately? I need help being proper human thanks.

Tagging some folx who are cool leaders who can maybe help

Packing is my kryptonite. Unless it's very simple for just a night or two, it absolutely paralyses me.

I want to work on art and explore farcaster more (aka: try to learn to be a human and make friends), but I have to finish my taxes
😭😭😭
