I’ve read about how it’s typically difficult for adults with autism to remain employed, and I can completely see why. Never been officially diagnosed, but I’m pretty sure it’s a foregone conclusion in the way that I constantly over analyze every action taken by my co-workers and supervisors

So yeah there’s definitely some ND thought here, but I also can’t seem to get past how fake everything feels. And it feels like I have to play along with their little game where they all assume different personalities between the hours of 9-5 instead of being themselves. Because contrary to popular belief, individuals aren’t beneficial to capitalism, drones are

I hate my brain

    It's more the society built up by current systems, not your brain, comrade. In a world designed more around human need, we could begin deconstructing these absurd hierarchical social mores that are structurally ableist.

      And I think this is what the anti-work movement tried (but failed) to address. No one should be anti-labor. Everyone should be anti-“forced need to complete these extremely specific deliverables which are the source of tension but have 0 impact on the state of the world”

      People act like there’s going to be Armageddon if the deadline isn’t met
