Have you ever experienced “second hand happiness” - joy from being around/witnessing someone else’s happiness?

I don’t know why I’m still so pissed off that the answers to “what, where, and when” are “that, there, and then.”

Rules seemingly don’t apply to pos men. Still.
Like I said. They are not even proper robber barons. No real philanthropic spirit - no museums or libraries. Just their own toys - rockets and cars.
NEW: For the 3rd year in a row, Elon Musk’s foundation gave away less than it was supposed to. In 2023, it gave away $421 million less than the minimum required for a charity of its size, new filings show. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/12/u...

Still not enough…
The Justice Department announced an agreement with the city of Louisville on a federal oversight plan that will require the local police department to make sweeping changes aimed at curbing excessive force and racial discrimination.

The plan comes more than 4 1/2 years after a Louisville police officer fatally shot Breonna Taylor, a Black woman, during a nighttime raid on her apartment.

No I didn’t write it down because my ADHD is positive I’ll remember it and my ASD doesn’t want to share until it’s perfect.

A shorter version of the video will be released Dec. 13 on Van Dyke’s 99th birthday.

I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

Also why we love Maleficent.
Watching The Little Mermaid as a kid: I’m Ariel! I’m a princess and I want to marry a handsome prince!

Watching The Little Mermaid as an adult: I’m Ursula. Some under-qualified white man usurped my throne, took my trident, and now I practice witchcraft.

One of the final steps of unmasking…it is freeing; and not only are you helping yourself, but you are likely boosting the confidence of others to do the same.
Do any other autistic people find themselves telling people they're autistic basically as soon as you meet them? I guess I feel like getting it out there gives people an explanation for my different-ness before they come up with their own.

My outgoing message is “don’t leave a message if you can text me.” 🫣🤭
I need a permanent out of office message that reads:

"I'm autistic and will need more time than you might expect to process your message and find the best way to respond in a way that won't somehow alienate or offend you."

but I don't think I'm allowed to do that.

“…and my remote control. And this lamp.”
(A very select few will get that.) 😅
All I want is a cottage in the Scottish Highlands, a raging snowstorm, and Agatha Christie novel, a crackling fire, a kettle on the stove, and a basket of emotional support pastries.

I was mostly in my own head, trying to figure out how the fuck everyone was doing life and trying to wear the right outfit…the most challenging aspect of all.
For the first thirty years of my life, when I did not know I was NeuroDivergent, I let other people tell me what I needed, which led me to neglect and become out of touch with my needs (so badly that I didn't know what they were).
