If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

Sounds like something I'd do, so probably yes?

Although I'd be more likely to not start a book so I can read it on my trip. My favourite time to read is while travelling

You weren’t “bad at life”.

You were trying to live in a world that never made space for your brain.

You weren’t “failing”.

You were adapting - to noise, to pressure, to expectations that made no sense.

You weren’t “emotionally immature”.

You were masking grief so deep it didn’t have words yet.

Today is my birthday (turning 29), which is the only time all year that I ask for a repost 🌿
I hope you get lost in fantasy worlds as much as I do 🔮

Motherfucking wind farms…

Thankfully we have another term of Labour allowing the country to steadily slide backwards instead of the coalition pushing it down.

Such a pity they don't seem remotely interested in fixing anything the Libs broke...

Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️

Artists create universes from nothing.

Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

Very few things are as embarrassing as learning to set boundaries for the first time as an undiagnosed autistic person in your 30s.

Haha, so true!

Unfortunately I learned my wife really didn't like me having boundaries.

Fortunately I no longer have a wife 😁

Adulthood is realizing that when neurotypicals say "give 100%" the actually mean "give 30% but act like it's 200%"

I grew up in 2 cities, and moved to a very small country town 17 years ago to be close to my partners family.

I yearn for the anonymity of big cities. Here, no matter where I go, I have to remember so many names, make constant conversation 😳

Can't wait to back to the city once kids finish school

This has plagued me for my whole life. What I find helps when I have a really big problem is to write it down, get it out of my head.

Music playing when going to sleep calms my brain & crowds out the thoughts.

Podcasts during cooking & chores, I learn something and shut my brain up

I love showers. It's the getting in and out that I hate 😮‍💨

That scene traumatised me for many years 😳

Albanese government criticised for ‘weak’ response to US attacks on Iran as experts decry ‘flagrant breach’ of law Former adviser to Penny Wong argues Australia should make clear ‘we are a country that stands up … for the rules-based order’

How My Reporting on the Columbia Protests Led to My Deportation As an Australian who wrote about the demonstrations while on campus, I gave my phone a superficial clean before flying to the U.S. I underestimated what I was up against.

Autistic writer upset they can’t submit second draft of conversation An autistic writer has reportedly been left “frustrated” that they are unable to submit the second draft of the very stupid thing they just said in casual conversation. Jay Chester, 48, who regularly ...

“Looking back over that second draft, I think where I went wrong was not recapping for my audience,” Chester added. “So I went back in, said ‘I was the one with big plans for my banana – but on second thoughts – no thanks.’ Anyway, now I’m banned from Tesco.”

“Dog chases down ambulance that owner is being transported in. When EMS realise, they let the dog in.”

My old producer: I haven't got time to read your emails. Please just email me a 2 sentence summary.

Me: But... I can't condense it into 2 sentences. You won't know the full context?!?

I’m autistic—of -course- I can’t just share an idea without a full-blown presentation and accompanying tracking docs because it’s easier to lay out the idea that way than talk casually about it lest I go on a 2-hour side quest of all the things that lead up to said idea.

In this essay, I will—…

Being autistic is doing what was asked, then being lectured about not doing what was implied.
