Unless you're an Autist who has heavily specced into the Corpo dialect/persona/mask.

Not autistic, but I write like chatgpt. And I really like formatting.

Without getting into a massive discussion about self-diagnosis and validity of various tests in which demographics and what not...

If your total score is 65 or over on this, you may wanna look into a formal diagnosis.

I was going to say it may not be a good time to get diagnosed, but that feels a lot like obeying in advance.

Oh, yes, that's ... a whole thing as well.

Wonderful time to be Autistic in the US, what with RFK Jr (the guy with the actual brain worm, life long anti-vaxxer, who is now in charge of essentially medical policy in the US) describing all Autistic people as literally pants-shittingly stupid, saying that he'd like to take all people using any kind of psychiatricly prescribed medication to detox, no electronics, farm labor camps.

... I wonder if Canada would accept an asylum petition from Americans who either are, or suspect they may be Autistic at this point?
