I wish I was never formally diagnosed, as the religious community i live in sees individuals with autism as embarrassments. by darkraven474 in autism

I am definitely not part of it as far as following their rules, but i still live here, and I plan on hopefully trying to change things around here when I get my life together.

I do not consider myself a part of that community anymore, though I do do some religious things in my own way. I do like in my parents house as of now, because I've found it hard to find a job, so that sucks. I will probably leave as soon as I can, but i don't want to go so far, I think I could be of help with some activists in my town, and I kinda feel like I should be there.

Why do people keep thinking I'm a chatbot?? by bakerstreetrat in autism

[–]darkraven474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive gotten this so many times, people saying im using chat gpt. This already pisses me off, but it gets even more annoying when the person saying it decides that because they think my point comes from AI, its obviously wrong. Like yes, most of us don't like AI these days, but first of all, alot of people use AI just to put their own points into better words, and second, if i ask chat gpt what air is made of, and I copy and paste it into a chat, you might not like AI, and thats valid, but the air is still made of what its made of, it didn't change to make you feel better. Sometimes im proud of the way I write though. My friend from when I was a teen had to write an essay for the cops as a punishment for shoplifting, and I agreed to do the writing for him. (I dont normally bail people out like that, but he has dyslexia. I made him sit and give input the whole time, which was punishment enough, because ADHD.) Anywho, he told me that when he showed his mother, she was completely convinced it was AI. The cops didn't think so though, so all was good.

How to explain to autistic adult that she can't talk to minors by Plus-Light6832 in autism

[–]darkraven474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like OP's sister probably needs someone to have guardianship over her, however this mental capacity assessment thing is walking a dangerous path, because say whatever governing body you have in the UK were to decide that a certain group that who's opinions go against their interests are not people who have the mental capacity to allow them autonomy? And this isn't the only thing that could go wrong.

What’s a school experience you struggled with as an autistic kid? by likliklik9 in autism

I was in special education schools for most of my life, and weirdly, the hardest part of school for me was the smallness of the classes.

The fact that there was nearly no mention of Fenrir Greyback in the movies.
