There is a particular flavour of work story that autistic and ADHD people tell each other. It goes like this: You joined a company. You were brilliant. You fixed things. You improved systems nobody asked you to improve because you couldn’t stand watching them be broken. You stayed late. You said what nobody else would say in the meeting. You delivered. And then someone else got promoted. Or your ideas got rebranded as theirs. Or you burned out so badly you had to start over completely. Again. If this is your story, I want you to understand something important: You were not unlucky. You were targeted. Not consciously, in most cases. But targeted all the same. The office culture corporate machine is not designed to reward the most competent person. It rewards the person who navigates the unwritten social game with the least friction. And for us, that game was built without our brain in mind. That’s not an excuse. That’s the terrain. Know it or keep losing to it. The Good Dog Problem Here...

Wipe your ass with your therapy homework. The so called “experts” want to “help you” to act in a way thats convenient for others, not drive you to succeed. A person who works forty hours a week and thinks about nothing. Survival mode. They call your intensity a disorder because they are unable to interface with it. Fuck em.

The word yearn annoys me. It phonetically sounds like pussy shit. I managed to dodge learning about yearning because I don’t come across it very often in my dealings with real ones. The literary app leaks it to me. Lo and behold. It is pussy shit. Yearning is valuing what you desperately want instead of what you immediately control , which reduces what you control, making it less likely to get what you want.

It’s a strong feeling of deep desire or longing, often for something that is terminally over and is never going to happen. It often reflects a magical wish for something that one simply cannot have without a work ethic they don’t possess, time they don’t possess, or it comes with dire consequences for themselves and others. The biggest yearn is the thing or person who got away. Some yearn for the toxic ex while raising a family. Some yearn for the big break ...

  The uncomfortable truth about the “Autism Crisis” Autistic individuals have a suicide attempt rate 2-8 times higher than the general population, and are 3 to 5 times more likely to die by suicide. Autistic people have the lowest employment rates of any disabled group, with only 30% of autistic people in employment currently. The question is: Why? I’ve been diving into the data from the University of Cambridge study released yesterday. It’s the kind of research that makes your stomach turn. I’m about to share why the “mental health crisis” in the neurodivergent community isn’t what they’re telling you it is. This is the knowledge the system ignores because once you see it, you realise the “disorder” isn’t in the brain at all. The Findings: Experts found that the 3–5 times higher risk of suicide in the autistic community is largely rooted in lifelong inequalities , ranging from education and employment to healthcare gaps. The only solution: Researchers are urging governments to m...
