For me, having humor is one of the most effective ways to cope with the pain. Laughing at something ma... |

One time at an intersection going straight through (more like a 20° left turn). I blamed the orange street lights, but in reality i just failed multitaski... |

| Yes, thats one side of it. I have another one: I notice lots of patterns in different things, patterns in communication from different people, patterns in behaviour. This is quite fun as long it has a good distance to me, sometimes as outsider i can predict what will happen in a given situation beca... |

| No, it wouldnt. Wheels work well in our flattened and paved world. Wheels totally suck in most natural enviroments. They get stuck, they wear excessive, they limit you to only flat land (No trees, no bumpy enviroments, no swimming, if you flip you're probably dead. Wheels dont work well for nature, ... |

| No, because we're an oppressed group. Neurotypicals aren't. It's like how a lot of people (myself included) consider jokes at white people's expense to be fine, while jokes about other races aren't. Thats double standart.
