Science, whether we want to be able to recognize it or not. Requires love and patience to do correctly. If we don't have that, then we suffer and struggle to make the right connections. I believe this to be the sole deciding factor for useful science outside of topics around quality checking the work, verification, and replicating results.

Autism is complex. Well, no, not really. Not to us. It's just different, it's unintuitive, to nuerotypicals. As is, nuerotypical is unintuitive, to us. Yet, we get along great, together.

We just have trouble framing it that way, because we don't enter the day with the intent to do harm or the intent to feel harm. We enter the day with intent to do good and reach for goodness.

The age all response to disobedience. After all, it's structure protects the known and it's structure errods the unknown. It's obtuse, invasive, comprehensive, and most of all, it needs constant refinement.

They don't know better. They think they do, they need to think they do, but the don't. Honestly, we wouldn't do much better. Instead, we have to look for ways to help them reach us.

I had to stop listening to people who were better established in life than I was. Everyone is willing to share how they did it for themselves. However, for non-verbals like myself, we're a different type of person. We're not just autistic, we're allistic & autistic. We've grown up in an environment that was either hostile, too comfortable, or somewhere in between; that promoted our non-verbal communication.

In a joint effort, it is important to establish guidelines between parties so that mistakes don't reoccur. Ethical boundaries are initially formed based on correlated datasets and empirical evidence available at that time. Those boundaries can lead to a number of unfortunate misunderstandings when not re-assessed.

Making sense of the world is tedious. I think that is the pursuit we should strive for, to turn over every downed tree or rock and discovering an evergreen or nasty mold can make all the difference in how we decide to proceed.

I always found the science of whales fascinating. The process of humans trying to understand how whales communicate is what I focused in on, when I started to question what it was like to exist as an Autistic Individual. Of course, at the time I didn't know I was autistic, I did however know there was a variance of interpretation before anyone provided the words to me.

I've been thinking about the recent video of ICE taking down an autistic hispanic male. As unsettling as it is, the truth is, that is the reality all autistic males have to come to terms with. There will be, at any moment in time, a point where someone will challenge you.

It's hard to get along with people with my particular version of Autism. Non-verbalism is not easy to move out and the amount of patience I've had to engage just to endure other people's temperaments is, well. Hard to describe here; not because I can't but because I don't want you to empathize with my negative experiences. Instead I'd like to help you understand the constructive value of being a stone-faced autistic person and cultivate ethical incentives in an organization.

There is a symmetry to language. There is a liquidity to feelings. Together and everything in between is the human experience.

Finding my inner voice and learning to listen to it has given me the insights I've needed to continue functioning. The world once seemed hostile to me. It wasn't until I said enough is enough, did I take the time to learn a number of methods to test and improve my quality of life. Through utilizing of the scientific method, I challenged the voices of my peers

We find our way through school, some of us prosper and some of us struggle. Those who are struggling and are incapable of being reached are often left behind. I am one of those strugglers and the therapy used to get through to me was ABA.. but it was incomplete and I had forgotten about the experience. The people performing ABA Therapy had the best of intentions for me, but the application of it left the wrong emotional imprint and I muted myself out of self-preservation since I perceived the environment I was within as hostile

Summarizing the Autistic Experience is futile; and I'm still going to attempt it through understanding my own behavior and the choices I've made to get to this stage in my life. Self awareness is essential to living with the right emotional attachments and removing the wrong emotional attachments. I purposefully minimize the number of choices I make every day in order to keep track of all the social rules set forth by society

Generally, socially acceptable, to let people know the reason as to why I would take time off and cancel meetings while still staying active at work through pushing code. Like many Autistic Individuals, I've been reprimanded for my behavior and word selection. It had taken a mental toll on me over the years until my naturally inquisitive nature took over. Through considering multiple facets of lexical and behavioral representation of myself, I've managed to pin down some behaviors which occur in myself that lead to Nuero-typical Hypoxia

Its hard to modulate ones emotional state and the pursuit of bringing yourself out of a traumatic experience is a process. Learning how to reduce friction with others can go along way towards correcting the state of affairs in your life and compartmentalizing your emotions is very much a healthy thing to do, because after all, trauma is trauma and the last thing we want to do is rationalize and justify the spread of trauma from ourselves to others
