    Perhaps a European ideal of Libertarianism. US liberal politics is a facade of good will to hide the same pro-corporate agenda pushing that the other party does while hiding behind a facade of moral vitriol. US libertarians believe in enforcing one’s own freedoms with force rather than relying on government force to defend your rights. US leftists have no political base in our elections, by design.









  • Read the book please… The trillogy* is on Audible. Some truly terrifying stuff. Like, >!living in a dying universe that was once an infinite garden because of the dark forest attacks that flattened spacetime into fewer dimensions, which could happen again.!<

  • It’s more to the point that tasks are easier for neurotypical people to accomplish because the world was built for their minds. Neurodivergent people have to build up skills and workarounds for functions that seem to come naturally to NTs, eventually creating a mosaic of little crutches and scripts to follow in order to fit in or even function at all in modern society.

    NDs don’t have “the box.” NTs are born with “the box.” Society says you must stand on the box (that it’s assumed everyone has inherently) in order to participate. So the ND makes their box out of the many tiny tools and workarounds they build to “stand on the box” that they don’t have.
