In life we are either growing or dying. There simply is no 3rd direction.
We can evolve and learn to understand our weakness and how to accommodate and compensate them or not.
In the end it's a binary world, whether you're a neurodivergent or neurotypical.

My kiddos did that to me with several different bands. 🙄
It never hurts less each time it happens.

I did. I lost him when I was 5, but he showed up everyday showing me how to do it.

The problem we have here folks, is that the word “hypocrite” is too big of a word and too complex for republicans to comprehend.

He literally can't process cognitively on that second level when people break from that adolescent mindset and start thinking like an adult.
The nuke codes are literally in the hands of an immature emotionally unbalanced teenage boy who hates his parents. 🙄

As a life long independent, sign me up.
I'm done with the inevitable extremism that comes from having a 2 party system.

Controlling “Time” by dividing it up into months days and hours was the cruelest imprisonment humanity cast upon itself.
Now we are all imprisoned by the very thing we discovered.
I run on a 36-hour clock myself.

Right?
When you are in the “now” time flies and nothing outside of what's in front of you exists.
When its not now and not shat you want to be doing, it take FOREVER for a minute to pass.

Have you ever heard of the “now” and “not now” time zones?

With Autism there is a good chance of ADHD. AuDHD.
Way over simplified:
Autism = COD tendencies. (Fresh start, clean slate, every piece lined out before assembling)
ADHD = Just jump in and get going without reading directions.
Autsim part of brain v ADHD part of brian = ADHD paralysis.

I'm with you.
I would remove this strong central idea that religion makes someone a good person. Nazis and the KKK went to church.
Aging myself, I remember when when “He’s a good Christian man.” “she’s a good Christian woman.” were popular phrases.
Not to mention the superiority complex.

When you find him, remember, he killed the pope and is very sensitive when people bring it up. 😉

We are made to feel bad for being able to detach when what we are doing is avoiding pain.

Its a lose-lose as long as the stigmas exist.
The one very positive bit of advice I got from one of the “many professionals” who supposedly knew what I was going through (even though they tried to tell me what they felt it was) But I had one. “It’s not a disability but a different set of abilities.”

Getting diagnosed young is only as good as the research at the time. In some ways, it helped because we knew there was something there. People still didn't know how to take it.
Those in the 80s and 90s are lucky they weren't institutionalized and lobotomized like we were in the 60s and 70s.

I'm not even catholic, but who let in the pope killer?
Like the collective value of BlueSky just decreased.

Shit is happening in DC that was rejected by movie studios because the thought of it actually happening was at the time, “too far out there.”

Is that an option?
Or like one of those double standards where it's cool if the rich do it but trashy if the poor? Like drugs, day drinking, and avoiding paying taxes?

It's really ironic when the time for a leader presents no one can grow a backbone and lead. Few are. Most aren't.
ALL Said they could to get elected, but ALL failed when it was gut check time and they are in a position to do it.
Can we get some elected leaders not on the oligarchy payroll? Please?

For those who need to hear it,
The Bible is to Christians as Mother Goose is to non-Christians.
It's just a book. It contains only stories.
Hope that helps.

I believe there are 2 types of people.
Those who are complete by themselves and those who need someone to complete them.
Its okay if 2 complete by themselves date each other and okay if the 2 who need someone to complete them.
The trouble comes when tying to mix the two.
That's my two pennies
