For reasons I won't explain, I just spent 7 hours researching the upper reaches of Amazon's org chart and lemme say, society has never built anything so esoteric. As an ontological matter, it's astounding it doesn't fall apart. Trucks, health, AGI, film, Whole Foods, retail, cloud, ads. One team.

"The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done." George Carlin

it kind of bugs me i dont know what way north is just sitting here in my room

Whatever you’re imagining, it’s going to be 4x dumber that that.

Ask yourself, "am I harder to kill than I was 8 years ago?"

It’s kind of amazing how humanity collectively built the most comprehensive and accessible information repository of all time, and then a handful of people decided to let loose a bunch of broken robots to stochastically pollute it for no clear reason whatsoever

Realising I'm autistic is realising people never wanted to "grab a coffee sometime"

People imagine picking up and finding *something better* is an easy solution. But how is that supposed to work, when all your time and energy goes to staying alive? You have almost nothing to set aside to actually fight your way out.

I don't where this all ends up, but I don't think a democracy in which only one of the two major parties is committed to peaceful transition of power is particularly sustainable!

I'm actually really good at identifying dangerous situations and toxic people, but it's not actually a super power, it's a trauma response, so I get a lot of false positives so I have to ignore my danger sense a lot and - Yes, like that time Doom overcharged Spider-Man's Spider-Sense to distract him

Me: I was diagnosed as autistic at 50 but I don't think I have any sensory processing issues Also Me: This sock feels funny on the corner of one toenail. I hate it with the fury of 1000 suns and must remove it immediately.

Autistic Lexicon Dyscalculia, Hypercalculia, Hypernumeracy The stereotypical *myth* is that all Autistic ppl are good at math. The Truth is that, common to the nature of the Autistic spectrum, Autism co-occurs with *divergent* mathematical an numeric ability.

One prediction for 2025: expect more tone policing. Bad stuff will happen, people will get angry, and be told is the problem is the way they present their anger.

Many autistic people tend to go to the extreme on either side of things. We’re either “what peer pressure, I feel none of it” or “holy sugar I need to change everything about myself in order to fit in and people please”. No in between, all of it or none of it.
