#NotAllMen , goddammit.
.
How do the good ones not matter? Good ones are the change you supposedly want, but you send them to Hell and tell them they’re meaningless every chance you get.
.
It erases Autistic men. This has been my whole life, I would never hurt a fly, but I am somehow responsible for men in general and women have always been justified to hate my Autistic ass for other men’s crimes.
.
Openly, because really, they know I would never hurt them for it, like real men would.
.
I don’t butt in to anyone’s conversations about it anymore, but all I see in the hate for that meme is NT hate and certainty that everyone is the same asshole and there is no neurodivergence.
.
It’s like the end of that pig, Bukowski’s “Something About a Viet Cong Flag:” That was something. You guys are nothing.”
.
NT people are so proud of their hate. How dare anyone ask to be left out of it?
.
“All men,” the NT guys all you want, I don’t care, just don’t do it to me. You do it to people like me, YOU are the bully.
.
I know my existence doesn’t solve the problem, well, you erasing me hasn’t solved it either, has it.
.
I think I know why people are, why men are assholes. and there’s an actual cause. I don’t accept it as “Human Nature,” and it doesn’t happen for no reason other than that people “let it.” Don’t fucking Not all men me if you’ve spanked your kids, THAT is a cause.
.
I never hurt a fly, but the people who hit their children think I’m responsible for the bad men, this is how it is for me. I’m not defending men, I’m only defending myself. I know most men suck.

@autistics #ActuallyAutistic question for the community…
…how do you handle work requests that your autistic brain finds, for lack of a better phrase, performative and useless…
…i am on vacation and have a board meeting in 45 minutes so logged on early…
…and made the mistaker of looking at a pending work request that is so performative and useless, that it has driven me here for a reality check
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic why i work from home since i have two free range options…
I would encourage anyone #ActuallyAutistic to follow the group:
@autistics
I've decided to limit announcements of the weekly #Voxelibre game (Saturday afternoons) for the Autistic/ADHD/AuDHD just to this group, discontinuing full-public posts. I'll experiment with making "Quiet public" posts only.

@autistics #ActuallyAutistic can’t decide if the allistics on board executive team are only using AI to communicate with me…
...OR…
…they have been promised something by a power if they can drive me nuts to leave the board…
…joke’s on all of them though…
…i’m a GenX autist — we outlast everyone and everything
RE: https://thecanadian.social/@MostlyHarmless/117366072484299490
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic we can all relate
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic my board executive group had a meeting next week with the seniorest of senior leaders next week…
…i just saw a draft agenda and1/2 of it is an engraved invitation to allow non-board members to meddle in our governance (again) and bluntly asked…
…”I have mentioned this concern before and not sure why there is continued insistence on engaging with leadership in this manner.”…
…and i fear it will (again) go unanswered
🇨🇦“The last thing I did was the report on Gaza naming what’s happening there as genocide,” Pillay added. “One of the main reactions to that report was people [complimented] me for my courage. You can imagine how surprised I was. Why would you need courage to speak the truth. You interpret the law. You look at all the facts, so it’s an impartial decision.”
Not trying to remote diagnose or anything, but this sounds very autistic to me. 
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic finished monthly board meeting, 2nd of the year, 4th month of our fiscal year, and we still don’t have an approved budget
and to my credit, i wasn’t AS hostile as i could have been, but sure as hell made it known that i was not happy
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic curious if anyone else is seeing restorative practice popping up in their workplace as part of the HR apparatus?
including a wikipedia article for those not familiar:
Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1069 , Thursday 01/10/2026
Thursday started a bit late at just before 07:30 having had a restless night.
I had to go to get my flu jab around 11am, no Covid jab, apparently only those over 75 will be spared the risk of Long Covid going forward!
A quiet, relaxing day otherwise, chores were done but nothing much else.
Final Thoughts.
I have had a bit of a reaction to previous flu jabs so we will have to see what transpires tomorrow!
Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

#ActuallyAutistic comfort food: raw cranberries in honey-flavoured yogurt
@autistics
Looking in the mirror at my outfit today, I suspect witches were probably autistic women, who just wanted to stay comfortable during autumn.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1070 , Friday 02/10/2026
Friday started just after 06:15 when I was woken by Mrs S crushing cans in the garage!
I was pleasantly surprised that I was suffering no ill effects from yesterday’s vaccination , not even a sore arm! Must be all the exercise!
Another challenging session in the gym today, I was put to shame by one of the other guys who was working on the weights having just finished a night shift!!
It’s been another quiet day otherwise, motivation is eluding me at the moment, there seems to be little point to anything.
The high point was pizza for tea - a chicken kiev version!
Final Thoughts.
Ahhh day by day until the last day.

it’s like being Groucho in most of his movies - I’ve taken this place for all I can and now it is time to RUN, find another situation and see how long that lasts before I’m found out again
.
I think a few half assed friendly voices around here have gone quiet on me
.
that attempted friendship this summer that blew up, they’re a gossip, I’m probably some kind of a predator now 😠
.
like I said once before, I used to think I was paranoid

#DEP #ActuallyAutistic @autistics
Whenever someone in my family says something very #autistic and my wife and I just stare at each other knowingly…
Super Conservative Aunt: “Oh I hate tags! I cut them out of my clothes, they drive me nuts.”
Wife and I: 👀👀👀 “huh, that’s interesting. Odd how everyone in the family is like that” 🤷♂️
Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1104 , Thursday 05/11/2026
Thursday already!
Up around 07:15 got breakfast & did my basic chores.
Another really quiet day - seems to sum up my life at the moment - better than all the goings on of the last few years but it is not a relaxed ‘quiet’ I feel I should be doing oh so much more!
Final Thoughts.
Gym tomorrow although Mrs S has a days leave to give her time to tackle a load of paperwork that has landed vis-a-vis the sale of her parent’s house. So I do wonder if it might not be kinder to let her have an undisturbed lie in.
We shall see what happens in the morning!
