random thoughts for the day, they might be important. Or maybe not.

1. NT's are better at functioning as a social unit, including information sharing. They solve problems, often very effectively, by drawing on the social collective body of knowledge and experience.
Aspies, sorry I mean autistics now, function outside the social unit. They cannot draw very effectively on the social resources of the group. Because they approach each problem from scratch, they get less done--but they also innovate. We are the source of new ideas and new ways of looking at things. But we don't always get a lot done. Society should use us. We should be educated and allowed to enrich humanity with our weird ideas. Just look after us while we do it.

2. Mankind builds constructs to understand reality, but then mistakes them for reality. There is what really happened, there is our understanding of it, and there are artificial constructs we produce to make sense of things. These are 3 entirely different things. For example, take evolution. There is: a) how life rally came about. b) our necessarily incomplete understanding of it. and c) taxonomy, which is just something we made up. Do not mistake taxonomy for reality.


THESE ARE ASPIE THOUGHTS. THEY MAY BE VALUABLE, PLEASE PASS THEM ON IF YOU THINK SO

Precisely my thoughts too, Smith2267

I think we Auties are the sources of new ideas and innovation - innovating so much that even fellow Auties in my country could not take it. But they had worked in other places. So society should give us more opportunities to do what we can do - including our unique ways to explore different facets of reality.

You have never actually seen your own face before. Only pictures and reflections.

quirks can be a super power. i can sneak up on people, find ringing phones under blankets and make accurate and quick decisions based on a glance (i buy/sell antiques.. always good to not bring attention to something you want)
