Here's a totally random question, which I'll throw to the wind:
Can anyone recommend a good book light for night time reading that is autism / sensory friendly? I have been reading with a string of little faerie lights on my lap and across my books at night because I can't tolerate ceiling lights, floor lamps or traditional reading lights (the clamp type). I have considerable difficulty with LED light but I want something full spectrum without being too bright, or casting shadows. I'd prefer something that I can just have on my lap rather than on a desk, etc., so that I can move it as needed.
There are so many products designed with sensory processing disorder in mind (heavy blankets, chew toys, etc), but I can't find any good yet soft reading light. I'm going blind with my faerie lights at night.
Thanks in advance.

There are so many hate groups and they seem worse than ever. Ever since you-know-who got elected, you hear more and more about murders committed out of hatred and nothing else. But there don't seem to be any love groups, that tolerate and embrace all kinds of different people. How sad. 
I guess humans really are naturally evil.

I guess humans really are naturally evil. 80% of people are decent human beings. we just rarely make the news.

The current counselor had the nerve to tell me that "the ideal job for you, is one where you do not have to learn a lot of things".
After I told the counselor that the previous boss (singular) said "the women (or "woman") said you were learning too slowly".
Wtf?
On those three days, one or two women allegedly claimed that I learned company software too slowly
Wespac company
The world contains three Wespac buildings. Nowhere else, does anyone take Wespac software.
Says nothing about how slowly I do Schwartz software
Says nothing about the next day
The instruction method could have been flawed. Or, the method might not have been suited for my 
learning style 
Nobody measured the rate I worked at
Besides, a neuropsychiatrist administered an IQ test. Weschler WAIS. When I was 21. He said that I didn't have a learning 
difference , but if I had one it would be Non Verbal Learning Disorder
He said that I was too far along in Math to get NVLD diagnosis
The counselor made it sound like I had a learning difference
Besides not everyone works at their ideal job
The statement (first paragraph in this post) could be correct. (And I am not great at learning. But Theory of Multiple Intelligences and globalization)
The ideal job for me is not academically, vocationally, physically, socially, emotionally difficult. It is one where mistakes do not matter 
For example,
