Living an entire existence in one continuous existential crisis

[🌑Lisa🌑 @Lisa1220why]

Congratulations to the vast majority of people on Earth. You are so lucky to not have to go through life with brain that doesn’t let you lie to yourself. You don’t understand how useful and important of a survival skill it is to be able to lie to yourself

I’ve never looked at someone being kind and thought “you’re weak, let me take advantage of you.” Like wtf is that fr

Psychology says some people avoid socializing not because they hate people, but because they can read them too well. They walk into a room and immediately sense the fake laughs, the hidden agendas, the performances. Their nervous system doesn't misread the signal, it just refuses to ignore it. Small talk feels like a tax they didn't agree to pay. Forced smiles cost them energy that takes hours to recover. They're not broken. They're calibrated differently. They don't avoid people. They avoid emotional labor that leads nowhere. When they do connect, it's deep, intentional, real. No masks. No games. Fewer friends doesn't mean loneliness. It means higher standards. That's not antisocial behavior. That's emotional intelligence.
If you found this relatable, this account is for you.

The neurodivergent paradox: won't message first, won't answer calls, avoids eye contact... but if you speak to them? Suddenly the funniest, most passionate person in the room. We're just waiting for a safe space to switch on.

Since the Late Show is ending I loved seeing the interview and performances when they originally aired but this is only video I can find left of the meet cute episode between Stephen Colbert and Jon Batiste on the Colbert Report https://t.co/0mXnpylET2 via @YouTube

If the US and Israel really wanted to put THIS guy in charge of Iran this is what a decision like that seems like https://t.co/rNq803zLgd via @YouTube

A lot of neurodivergent people have spent so much time being misunderstood that the bare minimum of emotional safety feels unreal.

People say "ADHD gets better with age" because they picture hyper little boys growing up. Meanwhile, an entire generation of adult women is hanging by a thread, completely overwhelmed, and feeling like they are losing their minds.

Just detach. Let it end. Accept whatever life brings your way. Not everything is meant to last, and not every story gets a happy ending. Loosen your grip. Stop forcing what no longer fits. Make peace with what’s over and allow yourself to breathe again.

@cowgirl_bebop I think it started with Dark Angel. He was in one episode and his character died. Then became a regular season 2 and they added a whole plot line about the genetically modified humans being born in sets of twins

My introduction to Alfonso Cuaron. One of my favorites as a kid and the first time I really analyzed filmmaking. Something that was my style

A LITTLE PRINCESS was released 31 years ago today.

Though not a major box office success, the film later gained a strong reputation for its storytelling & visual beauty, with many considering it one of the most overlooked family films of the 90s.

21 years ago today, gorillaz released ‘feel good inc’

Being neurodivergent is when everyone is watching you get bullied by someone who is hitting way below the belt, crushing your soul for no reason, and no one steps in. But the minute you defend yourself with something you think is unremarkable yet kinda snarky, the whole crowd turns on you like “Whoa! Too far! I can’t believe you just said that! That’s so mean!”

[Libriscent @libriscent]

The autistic realization that you can’t do anything with people around because being watched even casually feels physically unbearable.

im a social vampire like u gotta invite me into ur conversation or i cannot enter

[Tylia 🏳️‍⚧️ @ScienceTylia]

Child trauma does this to you. I live with this.

This is part of people pleasing/fawning, which is a trauma response designed to avoid conflict by placing others needs above your own (and avoid the chance to be rejected by others by not interacting with others).

[Ari🪷 @arikoyarii]

social anxiety is a lot more than just being shy. It's the constant fear everyone is judging you, not being able to keep eye contact, feeling awkward when you're with someone, your mind going totally blank when someone is talking to you

[Sophia ❣️ @KeruboSk]

A lot of neurodivergent people didn’t miss out on support because they didn’t need it, they missed out because they learned early how to mask it.
When you’re neurodivergent, being “easy,” “quiet,” or “high-functioning” often just means you got really good at hiding your struggles, not that they weren’t there.

One year ago Andor concluded the first arc of its final season with one of the coldest endings to an episode ever made. What a miracle of a show.
