Religion, explained:
(evolution as religion)
.
It’s not the afterlife, it’s the next life, the next generation
.
it’s not your soul, it’s your genes you need to be protecting, and not the way the warriors think, the way you would protect your soul is the way you protect your genes, by getting right with the world.
.
This is what the prophets have been trying to tell you, when you abuse, you harm your GENES and so we are punished in the next life, meaning the next generation.
.
“Soul,” in this sense, is a better definition for genes than the popular version. This is life as religion here, in theory, how things may have been understood in the deeper past, before we became the warriors and lost the sense of things.
.
(Preach, you silly white fool. It’s Tuesday, FFS. 🙄😜)

Individuals with ASD who are more adept at hiding externally visible behaviors (due to social pressure to conform) will often have developed mechanisms for presenting more neurotypically, but their experience of it doesn't change. For example, I can shake someone's hand, look them in the eyes, and make some small-talk at a conference, but I'm dying inside the whole time—it's so uncomfortable. I don't like strangers touching me. I don't like touching people I don't have a close relationship to. But a lifetime of having to "pass" for interviews, events, etc. has made me "able" to (perhaps convincingly).

"Does that sound OK to you?”

@actuallyautistic @autistics #ActuallyAutistic can check off all of this…

Social media post from “Embrace Autism” listing lesser-known signs of autistic burnout. The background is dark with white text and emoji icons next to each symptom. The signs listed are:
• Executive function decline (brain emoji): difficulty with planning or decision-making
• Brain fog (fog emoji): memory lapses, slow thinking, dissociation
• Mutism (prohibited emoji): reduced or lost ability to speak
• Sensory overload (spiral emoji): lights, sounds, and textures feel unbearable
• Suicidal thoughts (broken heart emoji): emotional exhaustion can run deep
• Burnout lasting months or years (hourglass emoji): not just days
• Identity loss (theater masks emoji): from years of masking identity
The post includes a link to embrace-autism.com/autistic-burnout for more information.

@actuallyautistic @autistics #ActuallyAutistic i find it funny that NTs assume everyone wants to share personal stuff during meetings...

…like, if i wanted to say something i would, i don’t need to be put on the spot...

…but if you do, you better believe i will say something so bizarre it shuts down all conversation…

…and do so purely out of spite

@actuallyautistic @autistics #ActuallyAutistic harsh, yes, but nonetheless pretty accurate…

Meme with two panels illustrating societal neglect of autistic individuals over time.

Top panel: A child is being held happily above water by a smiling woman labeled “society,” while the child is labeled “autism moms.” Nearby, a struggling child labeled “autistic children” is barely keeping their head above water.

Bottom panel: A skeleton sits alone in a chair underwater, labeled “autistic adults,” symbolizing long-term neglect and invisibility.

An action figure of Skeletor from the Masters of the Universe franchise is sitting on a toy toilet in a brightly colored, pink and orange dollhouse bathroom.

Bold white text with a black outline above and below the figure reads: "I'D RATHER BE A WEIRDO WITH NO FRIENDS THAN A CLOWN TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH THE CIRCUS."

Instagram post by @autisticnotweird with text on a white background bordered in blue. The text reads: "Autistic people don't get bullied because they're autistic. They get bullied because people choose to bully them. We need to put the blame where it belongs, and stop victim-blaming autistic people for their bullies' deliberate and conscious decisions." A small sidebar credits the creator: "AutisticNotWeird.com, fb.com/autisticnotweird -- Chris Bonnello."
