I hear you. But then does the existence of some sort of higher purpose/unknown science necessarily imply everlasting life?

I was a bit annoyed for a while. I made it worse for myself by trying to actually evade my ban using a VPN etc, but I hadn't appreciated how sophisticated they are these days and once you're banned you're banned for life.

It's odd to me, as when I first started using it throwaway accounts were common and it was a fun place to an anonymously comment on stuff. I might try and rejoin when I next upgrade my phone, but I understand they track your Google account and various other identifiers so maybe it's to call it a day.

I get the need to be left alone. That said, when moving to a new city, I found work was actually a good place to meet people and some (but far, far from all) of my former co-workers remain life-long friends.

It may sound twee, but I feel that so many people not being neuro-typical is the spice in the mix of humanity. The best artists, creators, inventors, musicians, comedians, writers, poets, engineers, philosophers... are mostly neuro-divergent to some extent (on a spectrum, if you will).

I'm in my late 40s and I've only recently learned about 'masking'. I assumed everyone had multiple personalities they wore for different people. Apparently not. I assumed everyone could clearly visualise things in their mind. I assumed everyone had a song playing in their head most of the time, as well as an internal monologue. Apparently not.

I get by pretty well. I'm undiagnosed with some sort of 'ism' I guess, but who knows. If there's no treatment as such then there's no rush for diagnosis in my case.

Just pleased that he's not on the tele anymore. His patter was dreadful.
