    I’m convinced that I have psychic abilities

    Both sides of the extreme are doing to others and themselves. You're either not "pure enough" or you are "evil" for being on the "other side" of the conversation. Both come at this from their own moral high ground, virtuous perspective. Do not underestimate the power of stupid people in large...

    I’m convinced that I have psychic abilities

    There is that, no doubt. However, do not conflate this with what we are talking about. I know...easy to do because we are often quite tied to our physical world to the point of completely shutting out anything else. What we are talking about here is what happens when the mind is separated...

    I’m convinced that I have psychic abilities

    Telepathy...apparently...is a type of language (meaning, not dialect), it is a stream of consciousness, it allows access to see what others see (sharing consciousness with another person). From the interviews with the researcher doing the EEGs (brain wave analysis) with these autistic savants...

    What portrayals of autism in the media AREN'T annoying?

    Well, all I can say is that it is fiction. It is entertainment. Another example might be medical dramas, how medical equipment is used, how hospitals are run, etc. My wife and I literally cannot watch any of them without thinking, "That would never happen in a million years.", "Doesn't work...

    Funnel clouds. Not all develop into tornados...where they touch the ground and cause damage.

    I’m convinced that I have psychic abilities

    From what I can gather...at least from the discussions on the Telepathy Tapes...that these forms of communication are savant skills. I was under the impression going into this that these skills are some sort of latent, genetic, or neurobiological condition...but not now. I have to correct my...

    I’m convinced that I have psychic abilities

    If you haven't already, listen to the Telepathy Tapes, either on the website or on YouTube. At any rate, I do not think this phenomenon is unusual within the autistic community. When I was a child and into my early 20's, it was a pretty common occurrence in my life. Either my brain changed...

    how do i explain to my partner i need him more than what he’s giving me now?

    Any advice must be within the context of what kind of person your life-partner is. (1) How nurturing they are, (2) How accountable and responsible they are, (3) How busy they are with work outside the home...and so on. I know that it is VERY common for men to be torn between and balancing...

    Seeking an Independent Future

    From a job security perspective as we enter the age of machines...A.I. embodied (humanoid robotics) and non-embodied (management systems, security, data entry, research, etc.)...the only jobs that seem to be secure on the horizon are those that fall under the umbrella of "skilled labor"...

    Mood disorder and autism

    Autism, ADHD, schizophrenia, mood disorders can overlap in some cases...imagine a Venn diagram. "I tell her I don't feel anything and consequently have trouble relating to myself and enjoying myself...I've felt like this since I was 14." I am going to speculate here, but given your age now...

    Married + late ASD1 diagnosis = problems

    Rule #1: Do not take yourself too seriously when you have your "autistic moments". Learn to laugh at yourself in front of others...it really removes the awkwardness. I am nearly 60 and I will sometimes refer to myself as "the autistic kid" at certain moments...just for laughs. The...

    Married + late ASD1 diagnosis = problems

    Yes! I can write a book on my innumerable experiences with this. There are people in your inner circle, professionally and personally, you can be open with...that are intellectually curious...that can have some form of empathy and sympathy for our autistic experience. There are other people...

    UAP hearing(s)

    The majority of it was about witness protection and declassification. The interesting video was the one where a Hellfire missile made contact with one of those "TikTac" UAPs and only the missile was destroyed. The UAP sort of spun around for a second and then kept on flying as if nothing...
