I was on a teams call yesterday and while it was ongoing, I started the dialect quiz. I didn't realize that I wasn't muted after answering a question and I started sounding out how I say some of the words. Someone in the meeting mentioned a hot mic and so now I have to fake my own death 💀

Also, do it because she is an awesome writer! I have enjoyed her articles for a long time. One could say that they (the articles) tickle my 'tism, in that they often go deep on more esoteric topics of car culture.

I got to the office early this morning and a short time later, someone came to the outside of the cube farm and asked rather loudly "Is there anyone in here?" I replied with the autistic incantation of "In general, or in specific?"

Bluesky, how do we feel about sea turtles? (Like anyone could not like these gals)

Two sea turtles are side by side on a sandy beach right at the waters edge. The turtle in the front is still wet and shiny from just crawling out of the ocean. The turtle in the background is resting after the effort to get herself up the sandy beach.

Have you ever bought some sort of electronic gadget that was made in China? You know, the ones that have poorly translated instruction manuals. The translation is just passable enough that if you take your time and reason through it, you can usually figure out most of the functions.

I took the German or Autistic diagnostic. Result: Both. The Wittgenstein Result. I don't know whether to be proud or concerned. german.millermanschool.com Dear reader, I am not, in fact, German. The same cannot be said about autistic.

My youtube recap totally called me out as autistic without saying so explicitly. Some highlights: "curious mind 3% of people", top 1% of viewers for a channel that I didn't even realize I was that in to, award for 'Most likely to explain complex topics in a way everyone can understand' aka infodump.

The study, entitled “Why are they like that?”, seeks to investigate the causes of autism as conjectured by the highly opinionated loved ones and colleagues of autistic people, whose hot takes are infinitely more valuable than anything autistic people have to say.

This is the most infuriating thing about my car. Try as I might, I cannot get the clocks to sync exactly. The bottom clock syncs with my phone, but the top clock does its own thing. There is a small delay when pushing one of the setting buttons for the top clock so my best efforts are in vain.

My family helps keep the blessing box of food outside of my kid's school stocked. When I went to add some stuff this week, it was empty. I've never seen it that way before and folks will be losing SNAP benefits soon. How does this make America Great or Healthy?

The autistic desire to choose ones words carefully to convey the exact meaning intended - when asked a yes/no question on a call, I respond with that's affirmative or that's negative. I've always thought that made my meaning especially clear but, usually folks are caught off guard by that response.
