Why are people so loose with their word?
If you didn't want me to answer the question, why ask me it in the first place.
Every autist, every dann day.

Not doing small talk is extremely autistic. Whether you like it or not you’ve got to be able to do that stuff to blend in with the normies - save the autism for your Bitcoiner frens
I participate in the dance but in my own way.
I'm mid 40s & well trained in normie social activities (as taxing as they are). I have lots of my own tools & a pretty robust framework. I got so good at blending in that few paid me much attention (until I discovered Bitcoin, grew a big arsed beard & let out my inner autist 😆).
I think I'm pretty good surfing between normies and autists. Normie conversations tend to be really shallow but most of my anxiety around them has gone.
I've always been a bit of a normie-autist translator. I can see the technicality that the autist is stuck on & also what the normie is asking. I usually hear both the literal question & inferred question.
Being able to navigate the autists and normies both is a genuine skill which will only become more valuable as more Zoomers come of age. There are a lot more in that generation with weak social skills who don’t get it and/or don’t care but social norms aren’t going away - translators will be valued, educators who can help the autists adapt even moreso.
I think autism is an immune response to the fuckery & lies. I made a pretty decent living translating software & tech concepts into normie language, but I think I'm done with that now.
I think I want to help empower the autists to become more resilient & share their skills & resources with their brothers. I feel like I want more autists & less normies in my future.
