I give 1% to my union. My pay is ~10% better than it would be if we didn’t have it, and management gets in huge trouble if they mistreat workers. And by trouble, I mean they fired a manager when they scheduled a worker over their lunch break.

It’s probably more cost effective to run Azure Services on Linux machines than Windows machines.
I was wondering how Signal handles this. Thanks for the info.
I shifted my phone to the side and saw this exact foot placement. Yes.
Don’t know if it’s an ASD thing, though… I do have more uncommon posturing than most people. Need a bigger sample size and a control group.
Having both, idk, it’s like I have to expect chaos to be okay with it. Like, I take my ADHD spouse on a date and I expect they’ll want to spontaneously go places, and I’ll be okay with that. If I’m driving home on a routine grocery run and they suddenly call and want takeout… I have to calm myself.
Me realizing that eating hot dogs everyday was making my stomach hurt: 😭
Mom: undiagnosed ADHD
Dad: undiagnosed ASD
Me: I get a new special interest every month, but they typically involve building.
I looked for a diagnosis. Called lots of providers and, in summary, they only providers that could accept me were expensive and lengthy. I don’t have light or sound sensitivity (which isn’t required) so I don’t need accommodations. I don’t have trama and have worked through most of my issues so I don’t need therapy. There’s objectively no benefit to getting a diagnosis for me other than claiming I have ASD. And there’s some negatives, especially if traveling abroad. So yeah, with that, I don’t want a professional diagnosis. I did lots of research and checked more than enough boxes in the DSM-5 to validate myself. Others’ validation isn’t worth a couple thousand dollars and hours of consultation over a year. If I needed support, it might be worth it, but personally, I feel I’m in a good place.
I was searching for why I am different and found that it had a name and there are other who have similar experiences that I can relate to. That’s good enough for me.
I get gatekeeping and that people may be spreading false information or making the community look bad. Call them out then. Otherwise, an educated self-diagnosis isn’t harming anyone. Let people be at peace with their sense of self.
Or you got the ADHD & Autism combo. Routines are more of a suggestion, but you don’t have the motivation to keep them. Like, yeah, I should put away my clothes, but that seems like extra work. I’ll just leave them in the pile. (There are multiple piles)
