I can live with it.
I can relate to this, infact in addition to these experiences I have chronic muscle pain from tension which primarily comes from being in contact with others.
Being isolated and in control of my environment has been pretty much the only way to minimize it.
As for which of the causes you described are behind the energy drain; for me being perceived automatically turns on what feels like a background awareness that cannot be turned off until no one is there.
I consider masking to be part of this awareness; a self-defense mechanism that we learn early in our development to protect ourselves from harm by calculating how we react in order to minimize potential harm. In those situations it is impossible to feel entirely safe because we cannot control our environment and if we won’t react carefully we might end up with even more interaction we desperately don’t want.
Perhaps it is similar in nature to how something that lives in the wild has to maintain a constant awareness to avoid being caught off guard and potentially killed. An activation of fight-or-flight/primitive brain centers in the brain.
That is one source of energy drain in itself
There is also the energy drain from the much higher amount of sensory input we are being fed from our brains having many more synapses than those without autism. We can’t simply filter out or ignore everything we are receiving, there’s simply too much of it. It has to be stopped at the source before it can become sensory input. Isolation is the easiest way to accomplish this.
She was in TNG before she was in DS9 🙃
nearly any electronic device of any architecture: “I could install netbsd on that” 🤔
there can only be one!
It’s 1234, but there isn’t any money in there anyways
too many possible things can go wrong with installers, with arch I know I’ll get it working faster if even the slightest issue occurs which would otherwise derail installer distros 🤷♂️
The money was spent on educating them what the government wanted them to know, as opposed to what they deserve to know?
I’m shocked america is so high in spending considering how terrible our education system is unless you pay for it yourself. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit that much of the spending is not actually on what we would expect. 🤷♂️
you guys make it to the end of the day? :/
can I take systemd with me?
The walls were too loud!
Flame the dark true salt!
rm deletes files the normal way everyone who actually knows unix expects it
trash-cli tries to bring the comfort of windows to linux for the crybabies who like to delete files so recklessly that they end up screwing themselves later. (the same people who don’t ever take backups or snapshots)
Straight to advanced Linux. Rip the bandaid off now. It’s only going to hurt more later.
you guys have to read the instructions for Arch?
I mean I touch on them sometimes to see what has been replaced or changed because linux moves pretty fast but the steps are not complicated or hard to remember.
none of the positions are real anyway. they just make them appear open because it benefits them financially.
when an employee leaves they just close the position and spread the work across existing employees.

Cat wanted many treats. I am on way, way too much medication. I can see through time. Send help. 😳
