I’m on the aspie borderline enough that as a child it was very stressful, as an adult an extraordinary competitive advantage, and as a mature adult a superpower. And so, it is far easier to learn social graces and small talk than to learn to master subject after subject after subject without effort.

Aspiness is a superpower.

Neurotypicals are relative primitives.

But it takes more investment to mature an aspie.

That’s the hard part. We are organized for neurotypicals.

Sociopaths hire Aspies who hire neurotypicals who hire solipsists

ASPIE/HFA EXPERIENCES

  1. Sensory Overload

  2. Problem with eye contact

  3. Observing social interactions not participating

  4. Social confusion when interacting

  5. Extremely concerned with pain or sadness of others.

  6. Crowd Anxiety

  7. Monopolizing conversation

  8. Sequence of obsessive interests

Aspies live in an “intense world”

Aspiness just causes social developmental delay.

In exchange, causes system developmental acceleration.
