«Is it wrong to not disclose my rather apparent #autism on a #job application? I don’t want to lie, but I also don’t want to tank my chances. Do I risk #discrimination? Or hide the fact that I might #struggle later? What’s the right answer?»

The attempt to work things off has been running with moderate success since 4:50 pm today: not important/time-important 29 % ... really time-important approx. 1 % ... other paths and detours 70 %.

I have watched more & more friends turn to Substack in the past few months. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS! #Substack has well-documented problems with platforming literal Nazis, as well as writers spreading Covid misinformation, anti-vaccine propaganda, & transphobia. Long post here:

A black and white illustration with text reading "Substack is creating a walled garden you have to share with white supremacists". The illustration shows a round brick wall holding part of quote, some flowers, and a draped nazi flag. this is surrounded by barbed wire

After +/- 40 years I watched one of my favorite movies when I was young … and it clicked so many times during this movie that it needed just a small nudge¹ to write «Thanks for the Evening»².

Preparing the next two weeks while enjoying the new season of «Will Trent». There are worse ways avoiding doing the taxes. Today’s second half of the day my #ADHD ruled over my #autism like a dictator. Not tolerating any deviations.

A black and white photograph shows a row of various pills neatly arranged on a wooden table. In the background, an iPad displays a scene from the television show «Will Trent». Headphones and other items are also visible in the background on the table.

Okay, who do I need to f*ck to get medical science to research Nuciferine (as it does exist in Nymphaea Alba) for #autism and #AuDHD, due to its (mental) relaxation properties? I can only speak for myself and this needs studies! Vaping "white lotus" really improves my quality of life!

Tea time.

And then?

Back to the tax returns. Still not done. And it will take a tribute.
A wooden serving tray features a black cast iron teapot, a filled glass of amber colored tea, a small golden spoon, and a wooden round container with a lid and a small wooden spoon embedded. A Matchbox, a black flag with the hebrew letter א , below the word «ALEPHISTA», as a logo print on the matchbox, is also visible on the bottom right of the tray. The background is a light wood surface.

Watched «How to Build a Truth Engine» by Friedrich Moser at the Heinrich-Böll-Stiftung.

I really recommend this documentary.

Right now I follow the discussion on the stage w/ Dr. Clara Iglesias Keller and Friedrich Moser.

Friday I went to the movies. The #cinema. The #Lichtspielhaus. For the first time after 1787 days. March 4th, 2020.

Back then it was «Les Miserables» (2019).

«A Real Pain» (2024) was it yesterday.
