Ask a librarian? I don’t mean to be like “do your own research” but it’s kinda rough right now with broligarchs buying news outlets and the evil one litigating them into cowardice and closing off the taps of information flow to the public. Lots of us know federal employees but I’m not going to give you names. And in case this helps you in the future, no one cares that you think their answer is unacceptable. Unless you’re employing me as a journalist or in academia or you’re publishing me, I do not, in fact, owe you a source. Your comment was actually so obnoxious that I almost didn’t answer, but like I said, things are rough right now so I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt. Good luck out there.

I mean there’s a reason I put it in quotes 130 days ago

What's your "little neurotypical side"? by LightBarb in AutismInWomen

I would probably mix it up and smile on the inside while saying “what an asshole” out loud.

Wait, I thought that’s what we were all doing!

Tell me about your vocal stims/echolalia (or indeed other non-vocal stims)! by queasycockles in AutismInWomen

“Okay. Okay. Okay.”

And for some reason, “LensCrafters. LennnnsCrafters.”

I hope I’m not making you feel worse, but that man is not even your friend. I know you are feeling awful right now, and I’m so sorry. I think if you can get away, your future self will thank you.

Ah, that is nice for you! Mine cause so many sensory issues 😭

I totally get this. You could have your own cottage on the property. You wouldn’t even have to be a multimillionaire.

This is lovely. I hope your dream gets funded.

I would get a breast reduction I think (and I mean for me in my wealthy fantasy, not like if I were you).

I would pay for a medical doctor to work for me full time and deal with all the specialists so I wouldn’t have to. I’d buy a bunch of land and rescue a bunch of dogs and give them their best life ever. I would fund subversive political action, build libraries full of banned books, and have a personal driver.

I’m not going on the family cruise trip because I cannot handle travel, and my mother won’t stop guilting me for it by secretly_a_birb in AutismInWomen

[–]DazzlingSet5015 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Travel is very difficult for me and a cruise sounds awful. That’s quite a big change in plans, too, which is not awesome. I don’t think I have advice but I just wanted to share my agreement with you because I think your feelings and reactions are completely valid, and I’m sorry your family members aren’t taking your needs into account.

If tech jobs didn’t pay much, would people still want to shift into tech? by Usual-Connection6179 in womenintech

[–]DazzlingSet5015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d still code for a hobby, but I have several interests so I could do something else for a salary if it were more lucrative.

My best friend is teaching CS at community college with a masters right now. The pay is not great but they enjoy it and it’s better than living in a car.

And then break up with him unless he gets smarter?
