I was just thinking about this today. I used to get great pleasure from music, but I don't anymore. I just wanted to correct this. I do get great pleasure from certain music now.

Great post! I disagree with people who hate on so-called 'sociopaths'. Just because someone doesn't empathize about the things society expects them to, doesn't mean they can't feel empathy for things they care about. Are you kidding me? Sociopaths are nigh evil incarnate. They manipulate and twist a...

Although I wouldn't have been able to express it, even as a kid I thought that all interactions among adults should be voluntary. That people in groups don't acquire rights they lacked as individuals. That no individual or group ought to be sacrificed in the name of some alleged "greater good....

Study finds lags in unconscious learning among adults with autism


I think I could agree with this.
My brain HEAVILY filters anything from my subconscious.

However, my conscious pattern recognition is exceptional.

Problem is that whatever body language they think I am doing to them, they are usually wrong and not only am I not doing whatever they think I am doing, I am usually not even aware that I am doing anything and I am usually not even aware that they are even being affected since I am not doing anythi...
