De Railed Part 2
If you remember yesterday I was blathering about trains and being nice to a person. If you don’t remember look here. I don’t really remember what I said. As a rule I try not to remember what I say, my mind needs to be free of the trivial and the absurd. That’s why I can’t…

De Railed
Judging by the people I’ve talked to, a lot of autistic people like trains. I can see that. I mean the movement of a train is very soothing, in my experience the older the better. There’s lots of traditions, lots of random groups of trivial facts, and cartoons, and murder mysteries, there’s history, technology, science,…

Scary Day Ahead!
Any of you that have had much to do with autism and therapy blah blah, will know we were not allowed to languish at home for long after the KSP implosion. I mean I learnt my lesson. Lisa (I) am not good with people. It takes all my energy, it is scary and so anxiety…

It’s A Puzzle
I will never understand people. Okay so I have in my hermit state developed an interest in puzzles. It is not an obsession, it kind of can’t be because I can’t stay interested for too long before the frustration builds and the reasons are becoming clear. Puzzles were created by people for people.

OMG, GTH With Your PDA.

Neurotypicals May Be A Necessary Evil. Or If Autistics Ruled the World! – Governance The Serpent That Destroys All!
Read the Preamble first, hopefully it will make you less angry! Then read the next bit and then this one because… Well that’s how I wrote them. I think there is kind of an order to it, you know if you read the bits separately they appear to have no clear beginning, middle and end,…

Neurotypicals May Be A Necessary Evil. Or If Autistics Ruled the World! – Preamble
First my many disclaimers: I am responding to thoughts I have had regarding how hard it must be to be a neurotypical person and have most of your mind taken up with social, how can I put this politely, inconsequencies. And how the higher concentration of logic and ordered thinking available with the autistic brain…

I Hate Editing
Of course I do. Everyone does. I hate rereading a piece until I hate every stupid word. I hate the futility of not being able to see my mistakes because I know what I meant. But I really hate the wall I just hit. Background: I know I am not that great a writer; but…
