The majority of conspiracy theories are stupid.

When speaking to animals or babies I always use the word "we" instead of "you". I don't know, it just makes me feel more connected to them. Like I'll say to my pets, "we've had enough food for now", meaning "you've had enough food for now", or to my baby niece, "we can't play with the ornaments", meaning "you can't play with the ornaments."

When one of my pet rats gets old and is unable to clean his little penis I say "how's our penises?" before washing it for him. :lol:

It's a bit of a coincidence that my water pressure goes low every weekend

If I was a paranoid person I'd say that United Utilities are "at it"

So I bugged a few autistics IRL I've met and... Asked their fancyisms;

... One of them wants to rule the world and make stories.
One of them just wants to be a mermaid fashionista.
One of them just wants to go full on around cars and trains.
One of them wants to be a scientist and an explorer.
One of them actually just wants to go to college.
One of them just wants to be normal and get a lot of girls.


Me??
I want to destroy the world. :lol: :lol: :lol:

And I'll persuade and help said ruler to make the world a better place if she wants to save said world and continue ruling it.

I feel pressured when I decide to initiate a conversation, especially when I think the other person is unlikely to respond.

I never do that, I just sing at open mics and wait for them to approach me. Apart from music I'm about as socially proactive as a piece of cardboard.

There are some questions I will never get answered unless I ask them

I usually find out for myself what the answer is, or guess. I think a lot of people feel the same though. When I was at school the teachers often said "does anybody have any questions?" and it was rare that anybody dared to ask anything. I'm not quite that shy if I know the person and feel reasonably good about them, but who feels good about teachers? And even when I feel good about the other person, if they're talking to other people I don't expect to be able to get a word in edgeways so I don't try.

There was a bit in a Laurel And Hardy film where Stan couldn't get Ollie's attention because he was with a group of people, so Stan went to a call box and phoned him up. Very resourceful chap, Stan Laurel.

I do. It stops me feeling like crap during my waking life (or at least it reduces the chances of my feeling like crap), and it keeps my blood pressure down to safe levels. And the dreams I have are sometimes interesting.

Language is such a mess.
I swear I really just want to talk about autism. I don't mean this as a lead-in to my political views.
Some well-intentioned misunderstandings made me not know what to do
