Has anyone else reached that stage in their neurodivergence that goes from “you have so much potential, if only you applied yourself, you could go so far,” to “fuck it, I don’t want to participate in a society that keeps trying to convince me I’m not good enough/normal enough while it actively harms me other people, and the entire planet,” and would rather live on your own terms?
Asking for me.
This is an opportunity for me to remind people:
Literally anyone can propose deletion of a Wikipedia article, even if deleting would be ridiculous, and then a discussion happens.

Don't yell at me about this process, it's a good process. Don't feel bad if you don't understand it, even @elonmusk has tweeted me about this kind of thing in the past. But now you know.
i do think it’s extremely funny just how bad writers are at math to where there’s a whole tv tropes article on it. like even with smartphones having built in calculators, writers just cannot for the life of them piece together a plausible chronology.
When you’re autistic, you can end up being held to an exhausting and impossible double standard. You’re expected to monitor yourself, manage your tone, follow unwritten social rules, and constantly show patience and kindness even when others are treating you poorly.
But when you advocate for your boundaries, speak honestly about something wrong, or react to being overwhelmed, people can turn your autism against you.
I really think Peter Theil is part of that odd group of Protestants who think they can trigger the Apocalypse if certain criteria are met (eg Christian Zionism), and I really think he believes he can play the role of the Antichrist to do so like a Hyper Judas™.
I hate that LEGO is one step shy of being Funko Pops now, concentrating so heavily on licensed pop culture properties aimed at adults, instead of original "generic" themes to stir the imagination of children. But I guess I'm old and this kinda stuff just doesn't sell anymore.
Them: We’re holding you accountable.
Autistic person: Then address what I actually did.
Them: We’re also analyzing how you behaved while you were overwhelmed.
Autistic person: That’s not accountability. That’s judging an autistic person by how neurotypical they appeared while in distress.
I remember when this happened to me where I waited 6 months with no update then once they finally responded to me it had something to do with being physically injured but they managed to draw fanart inbetween all of this
