Yes! How many geniuses have been overlooked and unable to succeed because they didn't have the financial means to pursue their goals? Worldwide.
It may just be my attempts at visualizing it. I see my mother's cutlery drawer, overflowing with spoons, and the backup cutlery in her spare room.
My first job out of college was doing ABA. I got to know the kids, and the behaviors targeted by the "therapy". I saw myself in them and a lot of behaviors I mask being targeted. It didn't take long for me to get suspicious. Took even less time to get unpopular amongst my coworkers.
Spell slots makes more sense to me too. Probably a good way to explain it to my videogame-obsessed bf.
Just finished reading Iron Widow and WOW! If it's on your TBR, do yourself a favor and read it.
Whenever people say “Autistic People Can’t Have Emotions or Empathy” it makes me Upset because what Neurotypicals need to understand is that we do have empathy and show emotion too. Don’t Let any Neurotypical say that we can’t show or feel any emotion. #actuallyautistic#AutismAcceptanceMonth
I like spoon theory, but I do not really "get" the metaphor. I prefer bandwidth. Like, everything takes a bit of bandwidth, from ambient noise, to social interaction, and daily routines. If my bandwidth gets too low, I shut down. If I keep pushing, meltdown. #ActuallyAutistic
