Testosterone and neurodivergence moment?

Do you have other symptoms? Neurodivergences are neurodevelopmental disorders so the question is what were you like as a child?

I have been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD and do not feel any emotions or feel any connection with other people, so it’s possible. It looks like you’re dissociating, which could be caused by regular trauma or neurodivergent sensory/social/expectational trauma.

Fascinating. I feel compelled to espouse my abolitionist views whenever someone makes it sound like they’re seeking a solid place of belonging on an arbitrary spectrum. I’m conscious of our large diversity, but sometimes I forget how many autists are libs. I’d probably end up arguing with those types, but yeah they are can be well intentioned.

To draw a parallel from my special interest: as the Buddha knows most linguistic truths are relative he does not tell everyone there is self or no self. It depends on the person what will be fruitful for their own path. He is wise and knows which relative truth will yield a more functional and productive perspective for those inquiring, and tells them such.

Yikes I’m glad TikTok didn’t send me to that side.

That’s nice. I hope to find cool people like that again.

Gender isn’t real. My theory is that when we autists reflect on the idea our bottom up processing makes it easy to experience that emptiness, whereas NTs will project their social standards and absorbed ideas as truth. Nothing is bad about not caring about your presentation and such, but if you find that the patriarchal mold has constrained you and trying other things makes you happier then that’s great too.

Good luck.

I wish I could magically send you my calories or something

PYRRHO BUDDHISM CONNECTION?

Hi

ANTI CISGENDER AKTION

I feel like it’s pretty common with AuDHD. When given the chance to think about gender perhaps we take a bottom up perspective to see how this “gender” thing feels. From that point of view it’s pretty easy to see it doesn’t exist but it’s fun to try out different expressions.

Real

Real. Being around people sounds good in theory but then I don’t feel connected and don’t want to be perceived. Idk, non-man.

I felt miserable double T during the first couple weeks of blockers but eventually everything opened up and went all over the place for better or worse.

Vibing. Most of my day in bed but only like one waking hour under the covers. I feel very principled and comfy in the freedom of my attention.

I have read that book and thought a great deal about this. Assuming there to be an objective material world is very useful in practice. Still there is something even Lenin admits about experience. We can only ever have a subjective view of reality. We know that various chemicals and socially informed perceptions and so on are highly determinative in how we perceive reality. The way machians tried to categorize the world and describe some perfect system is absurd, but they are not completely wrong. I have tried hard to find the right conceptualization for experience and it is ultimately futile. Meditative practices are very helpful in clearing up perceptions to see things closer to objectively.

I highly recommend reading ‘The Ego Tunnel’ and ‘The Mind Illuminated’ for a scientific perspective on Buddhist insights rather than going “philosophy that’s not mine is bad, religion is bad, look away.”

Sure only a small fraction of indigenous people voted but a lot of Latinos voted for trump and a lot of black people voted for Harris. A lot of each probably didn’t vote. While I think a lot of value is contained in settlers, I can see why critics would point to such idealist tendencies as assuming all colonized are conscious actors and all settlers are wealthy and invested in the status quo or fascism.

Not that this helps but a lot of non-white folks also voted for both :/. For the most part everyone’s just scared of losing what they already have… and willing to (consciously or not) put others under the bus at their expense.
