Agreed.
You go, gurl. :mrgreen:

Pepe I have some bad news for you ...
It would seem Mona Pereth is my new best friend :lol:


You can have more than one best friend, you know.
They teach mathematical illiteracy in schools, these days, so anything goes, now. :mrgreen:

How about me being your male best friend, and Mona Pereth can be your female BFF. :scratch:
But don't tell cyberdude. 8O

Here is the amazing, world changing fact about eCommerce and the digital product space - the data demonstrates repeatedly that a brand can sustain itself with only 1000 what's called "true fans." These are customers who don't just like your brand, they love your brand, live for your brand when a new product is launched they're the first to buy. There is a dearth of products and brands that have an interest in the autistic community and truly understand our unique vantage from which we interface with this seriously horrifying world which just means that space can should and eventually will be filled by more entrepreneurs who understand us because they are one of us.


Here's an idea for the autistic community: A "Theory of Mind" upgrade!
That should sell like hotcakes. :money: :mrgreen:

By it being "best" it implies only one...
But it also has to be reciprocated so I'm going to say you're still unchallenged as my best wp friend :)

Well, Douglas Adams created a "Trilogy" of 4 books, when he wrote "The Hitch Hiker's Guide of the Galaxy" series.
If it was good enough for him to math frack, it is good enough for me. 8)

I can't imagine you *not* reading those books.
But I will ask, anyway.
Have you? :scratch:

I really have no reason why I haven't, seems like it would be a good escape from the pure insanity of this world

Rocky V is a good movie. There is something wrong with the universe.

We've kind of hijacked the thread away from the original topic though. Sorry OP

I think the problem with humanity is it is very out of touch with the universe and very in love with a machine box world it has created to cage itself

One of the things I hope to do is to build a network of small businesses owned or co-owned by people on the autism spectrum.

However, such a network can thrive only in the context of a larger autistic community, which needs to become much better organized and more generally useful, and to many more autistic people, than it is now. For my thoughts about this, please see Longterm visions for the autistic community.

It really should come as no surprise to me that someone had the same idea I had and probably
decades before me. But yes! I support you!

Here is the amazing, world changing fact about eCommerce and the digital product space - the data demonstrates repeatedly that a brand can sustain itself with only 1000 what's called "true fans."

I agree. I would be very interested in any specific comments you may have regarding my thoughts on how to build the autistic community. I would also be interested to hear your thoughts on how to build the autistic community.
