There's apparently a subset of people that desperately need success to be a sign of intelligence, and, strangely, inheritable.
Just, idk, sometime success comes form having enough money to be able to fail a bunch, and acknowledging this is somehow bad, if not apocryphal.

That’s just for 8 days, right? Year-to-date for 2025. The point is probably valid, but requires a different time frame.

I’m figuring out that the autism label isn’t that helpful. It basically just means that, if the world was built for me, it would be different. So we’re all finding our ways to navigate a world that wasn’t built for us. (But the label could be helpful in finding community w folks like you.😊)
