  • A very good woman

    I just finished watching ‘A good woman’, a film with Helen Hunt and Scarlett Johansson, I commented on an interesting conversation from that film here https://autisticandme.com/2022/05/08/it-depends-on-the-imagination/ It turned out it was a good movie, one that teaches us of the importance of not jumping to conclusions. Also the fact that it had so many characters…

  • Not very inviting

    When I came to the radio on Monday it was very quiet, only a receptionist and a man who I never saw before. The receptionist asked the man ‘Have you met Magda?’ and I immediately thought that means he is based there but then it turned out he isn’t, he is from a charity. Obviously…

  • It depends on the imagination…

    Sorry for the quality of the photo – I was watching a film on Amazon Prime but it turned out I can’t make screenshots there so I got this from YouTube. It’s good enough to ilustrate my point, I hope. I also hope I’m not committing a crime here – but if I am, I’m…

  • Follow the flow of what?

    This is just another post about my digital detox, and I didn’t want to call it just ‘digital detox’ while ‘feeling a bit better’ doesn’t seem appropriate in case I’ll feel worse again soon. I really do not know what is symptom of what, and that is the problem, but since yesterday evening I feel…

  • Do people fight for social status?

    I called The Friend and she complained about situation at work, saying there’s a lot of spiteful people there. She kept asking why people do those things because she never does. And in fact she doesn’t seem to be like that at all. It is being said the atmosphere at work depends on good management.…

  • How to handle marketing phone calls?

    Seriously, I don’t know where all those companies take my number from. Normally I try to listen to at least have the opportunity to politely say that I’m not interested and say bye but two days ago I had the call from Virgin Media and when I said I don’t need broadband the guy just…

  • Sleepless in Seatle and what I learned from it

    I just finished that film. It was very popular in Poland when it first came out and for a few years later – I’ve heard it being mentioned multiple times but I never got to watch it somehow. Well, I did now. It was a good time filler for my digital detox – well, ok,…

  • I either need digital detox or I developed ADHD

    Spoiler: you can’t develop ADHD as an adult. You either have it or you don’t. But I feel like I have almost every symptom. I can’t focus. At the moment I am ready to believe than a fly has more gray matter than me. I can’t believe that when I was a child, and also…

  • I’m getting curious about other people

    I just came back from my first shift after my sick leave. It was a small care home, I was there before but worked with all different staff today, which I still found somehow refreshing. I kept reminding myself throughout the shift to play an introvert and it was going ok. During the break I…

  • Is Boris Johnson autistic?

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-bus-pass-pensioners-warm-b2070395.html The above is a link to an article about a senior citizen who’s struggling financially and Boris’ comment on it. To make it easier for you I copied and paste a few lines. In an interview on ITV’s Good Morning Britain the prime minister was told of a 77-year-old pensioner who rode the bus…
