Today's prompt in my writing group's advent calendar was "Inspired by Douglas Adams". I wrote a poem called Marvin the Paranoid Android gets assessed for neurodivergency.
![Marvin the Paranoid Android gets assessed for neurodivergency
Here I am, brain
The size of a planet
And you ask me
To take you to the bridge

In all the diodes down my left side
To spend
all this computational power
on my Genuine People Personality
And you call that “high functioning”?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:umlwk7xvvod34476ogjukfyd/bafkreihq4xwilv5kiakljkgiaxcix4o763itcr67yyf5akotdtsh564sly@jpeg)
