Generally speaking I'm okay with tone but I do trip up here and there. I've spent my life trying to understand tones like sarcasm, and anger but it's taken me my life to learn and I'm still learning lol.

I'm just trying tbh to educate people. I've spent years posting responses on Quora to peoples questions and advice on autistic children. It's just something I do because I'm lucky to be able to speak about my experiences.

I’m so glad you’re here! This is a really hostile space, as you’ve seen, and I was just hoping to mitigate that :) I don’t come on here often, but I’ve had a couple worthwhile chats, but mostly you just gotta shut hostile people down. I like chatting with people who disagree with me, but most people come here to argue

Yeah I spend too much time on here for it to be healthy but I don't troll on here. I'm pretty honest and try to be understanding. I love the conversations here that genuinely last for hours and I've spoken to almost every emoji poster here. Some people I have their discord, snap, etc and speak daily. It just depends.

Idk abt OP but I have a parent who is a diagnosed autistic. So it’s definitely not true.

And he’s held a job better than anyone in my family (luckily his job also has to do with his special interest). He’s worked at the same place for 20 years. He is the director or a sect of a local government agency. And everyone who works with/ for him loves him. He has done very well for himself

People definitely need to understand his mode of communication, but with some assistance, he’s genuinely more productive and a better worker than anyone I know. It’s all about support
