Wow. I could have written this. (Thanks whoever shared this and heads up, Amy!) People interest me. I care about some ferociously and passionately. I care about most in at least an abstract humanitarian sense. But people also baffle and exhaust me, and I don’t trust most of them. They generalize and assume based on very limited data sets. They touch me. From behind. In crowds. They ignore the words I have so carefully arranged to say exactly what I want them to say and project their own insecurities and needs and prejudices. They treat me like an extension of them; they subsume who I am and what I say into whatever role they want or need me to fill and then punish me when I fail to follow a script I can’t see. EXTRA WOW to that last sentence! postcardsfromspace.tumblr/post/80783740660/i-see-your-value-now-aspergers-and-the-art-of
