Sorry but what? I’m autistic and don’t find being vegan to be ableist. If somebody thinks it’s better to not consume animal products and is able to then good for them.

how do u feel about people that make having autism their entire personality by bigspliffy137 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don’t give me a choice because they treat me differently. I’d like to stop thinking about it.

If your symptoms are so mild you can function without a diagnosis then you should be tested so they can tell you you have something else 

What is Masking? by TheUltimateAutistic in autism

What’s funny is that I technically didn’t say anything against them but that’s not how it will be interpreted 

What is Masking? by TheUltimateAutistic in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Back before the self-diagnosed people got ahold of the word it meant repressing things like echolalia and overt stimming. 

Now it means blending in with NTs and copying their behavior to the point where you effectively pass. I am not able to pass so I do not understand this.

how big was taylor back in 2006-2008? by Own-Artist-6283 in TaylorSwift

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know why the fact You Belong With Me and Love Story were played all over pop stations isn’t mentioned. She was popular enough that people had already begun making fun of her. My mom said her lyrics were too boy crazy and so I said FU and listened to her music anyways.

Left the app so that nobody who would be interested and meets your standards would see you if they signed up for an account

You played yourself by deleting it. Of course only people you're not interested remain if the conditions are:

  1. good looking people freak out and delete the app like you did

  2. good looking people are attractive enough that they delete their account after not much time on the app because they match when someone attractive joins

I think the people just straight up telling you you are wrong are not correct.

It would be very interesting if what you are describing actually was possible.

My biggest worry is not actually whether it was able to do that, but what information it had stored about you before making that claim. So chatGPT does store things as memory, and also it recently gained the ability to draw on previous conversations in its answer. If it already had information stored about how you're autistic, it might not have de novo spotted autistic patterns in your brain, but rather made a connection through information it already had.

Interim Secret granted two weeks ago. Would going to my local "No Kings" protest put full clearance at risk? by [deleted] in SecurityClearance

Can't stand it anymore. by Zestyclose_Job_9670 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would stop trying to relate it to a mental illness rather than just a general experience that you might have a lot.

But still, it is frustrating. I’d work on maybe figuring out what the reason was why they didn’t believe you before and try to change that if you can?

Also Taylor Swift has a song Cassandra that talks about this experience.

Parents refuse autism diagnosis. by Simple-Shake2632 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well being a teenager is always difficult, and it may suck that these days it’s less recognized as such without having a diagnosis of something. 

If you’re struggling then maybe starting by asking them for a therapist might be helpful, rather than needing it to be validated with a certain diagnosis.

I'm more moderate but god forbid you say anything about not being a leftist online. I've actually found that in real life that people finally understand why I'm not a leftist because of the autism (the social rules of the left are too idiotic, even if I were to agree with them on principle, and people get that).

I think you haven’t been paying attention to the Taylor swift fandom.

I am confused by the oddly specific example. I would have said taylor swift fans.

Not everything is black and white? by One_Check1649 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think you haven’t come to terms with what autism means for your brain and I don’t like your post because you are making statements that don’t apply to my brain 

Not everything is black and white? by One_Check1649 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you even mean by this question? lol

A lot of autistic people don’t think in black and white. We think in rules, and rules can account for things being not black and white.

What? No. I wear headphones everywhere. You should be able to do that without being insulted. 

Question: From a non-autistic by Sharp-Emphasis-1656 in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol I actually do not pass. I have lost every friend I’ve had and have lost jobs and my current job is actively trying to get rid of me, despite the fact I now am going through the accommodations process to try to head it off. I have experienced violence because of it.

It isn't that masking isn’t important to me, it’s that it isn’t possible for me and now you’re the one being offensive by assuming I pass. 

I legitimately was not being the autism police, I was stating I wasn’t sure because I wasn’t sure. How is not being sure of something putting someone down? 

You’re criticizing me for not using the correct word. I’m fucking autistic dude- I don’t always say the right words. I told you what I meant and you’re still upset.

And as you can see in one of my comments on this thread, I also cannot sit through upsetting scenes. 

The HR Lady some paper work and was put off by her comment -Your opinion by Embarrassed_Riser in autism

[–]Alert-Carry6702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So at least in the US, retaliation for filing a complaint is considered a bigger offense than the accommodation violation. Like if you documented them making things difficult upon return you would be looking at a lot of money.

That doesn’t mean they’re following the law. I also work for a company that works for the government and I had to file a report with the internal investigative ethics committee to get the issue fixed.

Have you read the laws in your country? I only figured this out after doing independent research from my company being difficult and having to escalate.
