@bamboombibbitybop@actuallyautistic well as @venite explained, it is extra hard because you have to run it in WINE 😉
But it makes sense that it's an exe file since most pc users run windows... so it's an apt analogy for neurodivergents vs neurotypicals...
@Sibshops@actuallyautistic There is a good reason why autistic people do this. We learn on a very young age that acting the way we actually feel gives us a shitload of problems.
We don't adapt to make neurotypicals happy, we adapt to make our life easier, to not get judged all day, to not have to explain every action we do, to not be labeled as weird or a freak, you can't imagine what effect this has on you as a kid or even an adult.
@la_sombra@actuallyautistic yeah I run it sometimes, but as it turns out this can cause issues when done in the wrong setting... At work for example...
@thesquirrelfish@actuallyautistic yeah, I'm a late diagnosed and since then I'm working on this as well, and it does help. And in some situations I'm even like "Just so you know, I have autisme, deal with it, cause I can't be bothered to adapt to fit the norm right now..."
But it does not work in every situation...
@autism101@actuallyautistic Yeah me too, there are 2 dishes that I order in a restaurant. Or when we eat pizza, I always have the same type of pizza. But still, there are so many ways to make a Quattro Formaggi pizza... and sometimes restaurants just throw in other stuff like paprica, which I hate... And it just destroys my meal for me. Ever tried to get all the paprica out of a thick layer of 4 types of cheese?
