I am a tiny bit worried about the possible consequences of AI in human sociology and culture at a massive scale, specially given the fact that we are still figuring out the impact that social media may have when started around 2 decades ago

Nice to meet you!!!

Hey BlueSky universe, extroverted autistic over here. Oh, you surprised? Yes, we exist.

To all autistic people in STEM. STEM needs you! Your unique perspective is most likely to challenge trends or the "common sense", both issues that can be damaging to innovation at times. Dont let social currency stuff tell you otherwise.
You are cool and needed!

With love,
Nai

Interesting interview. Includes topics like business, competition and philantropy, but also autism and adhd. #neurodivergence #business #autism #adhd

If something external and unpredictable happens at this point (sudden changes or noises), I may feel stressed and speed up even more, or... worst... shutdown or meltdown. This is me just trying to cope with a very detailed-dense and unpredictable place, and trying to act like everyone else to fit in

As #hyposensitive, I feel like sensory stimuli can speed me up to the point that I cannot notice small social cues anymore. Atm I instinctively try to calm all that excitability in my brain by talking about something predictable in loop. It feels like a HPC with the fans at max speed #autism

Hyposensitive autistics exist. They may tend not to notice smells, tastes, or how much space they occupy, and they may need large movements or create sounds to self-regulate. It is not as visible on TV, but it exists. Without visibility, early identification is compromised. #Autism #HypoSensitive

Los autistas hiposensibles existen. Pueden tender a no notar olores, sabores, o cuánto espacio ocupan, y pueden necesitar movimientos grandes o crear sonidos para regularse. No se visibiliza tanto, pero existe. Y sin visibilizarlo, la identificación temprana se ve comprometida #Autismo #Hiposensible

La verdad sobre el autismo (2023) El presentador y naturalista inglés Chris Packham ayuda a un grupo de personas autistas a descubrir cómo funciona su mente y a conectar con sus familiares y amigos de una manera más auténtica.

Acabo de ver el documental #LaVerdadSobreElAutismo y no podría estar más feliz de vivir en esta era. Lo recomiendo muchísimo. Muestra diferentes experiencias, con y sin autonomía. Me faltaron algunos autistas hiposensibles, pero sigue siendo increíble. #autismo

I watched the Documentary #InsideOurAutisticMinds and I couldn't be happier living in this era. I really recommend this. It shows different autistic experiences, with and without autonomy. I missed some hyposensitive autistic, but is still amazing. Go watch it!

I am Autistic and I am Proudly Autistic. I have to mask my autistic traits in this world to fit the rigidity that comes with lack of knowledge and I will do that to have well-being, as there is no perfect solution. But I am Autistic and I am still Proud. Hugs everyone!

Those who have gone through the desert truly appreciate water. In this appreciation, they also discover fire, for which one must be responsible.

One of the reasons I stand for DEI policies is that diversity and inclusion favour more variety of ideas (diversity) shared and listened among peers with respect (inclusion). This can create unusual solutions and anticipate problems one may not detect.

Conmigo se lleva fenomenal. Trabajo bien con ella y la niña está muy contenta en el cole.
Suelo conectar muy bien con este tipo de alumnos. En otros coles donde he trabajado me ponen de tutor con ellos. Me dicen que los niños están bien y trabajan. Y suelen ser tutorías que otros no quieren.

Llevo con una alumna casi curso y medio. Posiblemente tenga rasgos TEA o Asperger.
Me contaron cuando llegué al cole que la niña, sobre todo, tenía rabietas, ataques de ira, se negaba a trabajar en determinadas cosas o solo trabaja como ella quiere...
Este tiempo yo he detectado alguna cosa más.

People can process information differently, which directly affects communication, learning and what definition people choose for "common sense". If one style priotizes quickness to the cost of precision and other priorizes precision to the cost of speed, that shouldnt affect belonging. Peace!

How to Get Along With Literal Thinkers: 14 Steps (with Pictures) Literal thinkers are people who take into consideration what the words they speak and hear mean in concrete terms. They tend to be straightforward thinkers who see most tasks as a list of steps, apply...

I think this is a nice resource for figurative communicators/thinkers that want to understand literal communicators/thinkers. I don't agree with everything, but is still nice. www.wikihow.com/Get-Along-Wi...

We live in a #neurodiverseworld and that's amazing. However, we lack understanding of our own neudiversity and as a group tend to be rigid in our expectations. I hope some day society becomes less ignorant of this. Maybe then there will be less reasons to mask, overcompensate and/or isolate for some

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literal...

Some people have a figurative communication style and others have a literal communication style. They are different and they are equally valid. However, it can lead to communication being difficult for both sides and segregation. Learning a bit of both communication styles could help.

Example: daily panic -> insomnia, frequent muscle tension -> smaller attention span, smaller memory, emotional reactivity -> muscle aches, communication problems -> chronic muscle pain, fatigue, irritability, higher probability of accidents

Do not understand why people separate mental health and physical health so much, they are freaking siblings. One fails, the other does too.

Examples below.

Thank you!

Ooh, cool! There is a bridge to the fediverse bsky.app/profile/ap.b...

So, it looks like it is not part of the Fediverse, as Fediverse uses the protocol "activity pub" and BlueSky uses a new protocol called "at protocol". And so far BlueSky is the only app built on "at protocol"

Kinda cool this works based on servers, like the fediverse. I was looking for information about the difference between bluesky and the fediverse. Does someone know? (Will post if I find a good video explaining it)
