Does IShowSpeed have Aspergers?

0 Upvotes

Aside from the barking and stereotypical remarks that everyone always say about this guy, when you observe his behaviors, like his streams to other countries, do you find the way he interact with things Aspie-like? Take the recent Mongolian stream for example https://www.youtube.com/live/0mwuGExoxFU?si=mNAaEgh9_xpHE4Hr I haven't seen anyone talked about this yet, be how he just seem to not interact with the crowd of social stuff the right way, you can literally pick any point in the stream and see if you know what im talking about.

P/s: Also negative comments criticising this guy does not help so you can save your time doing something else

Are You Into Marketing / Copywriting As An Aspie?

0 Upvotes

So... We are supposed to lack emotion recognition or something. Lack of empathy or difficulties being awared of other people feelings...

What about being a copywriter and marketer? Its all psychology and understanding emotions.

As asperger. Do we have an advantage or disadvantage? Can we be successful into tapping customer's mind and desires to deliver value? Understand what exactly they need to make the right offer and angle?

I like marketing and copywriting but ive had this lack of self steem due to a marketing teacher saying im not good at it and that i should quit (long before i knew about digital marketing - 15 years ago)

If being an aspie represents a advantage that means I'll great over time with enough expertise and practice.

If its an disadvantage it would make sense to search for other way of making a living...

Years ago i hated the idea of "working" because most of activities depend on socializing - which is hard for me. Until i met a boom that was called something like "how to survive at work for aspegers" in Spanish.

What do you guys think about it?

Do you like marketing and copywriting?

Are you able to be better than above thanks to Asperger?

Let me know :)

Self-stigma and loneliness in autistic adults (still looking for participants!)

0 Upvotes

Thank you to everyone who has completed the survey so far! If you know anyone who might be interested in participating, please share the information below. We're particularly hoping to improve the representation of men and gender diverse individuals in the study, however women are still encouraged to participate as well.

***

Researchers at Federation University are seeking autistic participants (both formally diagnosed and self-identifying) to complete a brief (20 minute) online survey. We hope to better understand the experiences of self-stigma and loneliness in autistic adults (18+ years old) and hope that this information can be used to improve supports for the community.

To be eligible, you need to be 18 years or older, either have a formal diagnosis of autism or self-identify as being autistic, and be able to complete an online survey in English. We welcome (and encourage!) participants from all countries and backgrounds.

For more information about the study and to participate, click this link: https://federation.syd1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5BTzgeThxHR5kns

If you have any questions or concerns about the study, contact details for the researchers can also be found via the link.

Ethics approval number: 2025/084.

*Note: We understand that sometimes we can get caught up with a need to be as accurate as possible with our answers. While care has been taken to choose questionnaires that have been widely used with autistic people in the past and/or have been preferred by autistic people over other questionnaires, we recognize that they're not perfect and no questionnaire can capture nuance perfectly. Please just answer with whatever feels like the closest to right or least wrong. It's ok if it's not perfect!

To all Asperger people of the world!丨妾者告於万国攸人諸君!丨万国のアスペルガーよ!

3 Upvotes

Respectful greetings! I am an Asperger from Japan. 敬請大安! 妾者日本之攸人也!

Since childhood, I have dreamed of achieving world peace—and just recently, I discovered how to make it come true! 妾者自幼時夢想実現天下泰平、先日遂発見之!

If you are willing, I humbly ask for your support! If Aspergers across the world unite and take the lead in this great cause, our names shall surely echo throughout the world!!! 若可願、敬請諸君賜助! 万国攸人、結束共主導成就此偉大事業、則妾等之名声必轟天下!!!

The Roadmap to Peace

Recently, wars have been breaking out frequently in the former Soviet Union and the Middle East, and some even say this is a precursor to World War III. Furthermore, the risk of a civil war within the U.S. has not yet passed!  It’s absolutely terrifying!

If this situation is left unchecked and a new Warring States era arrives, then we will likely die in agony together with our families, in the depths of terror and humiliation!

It is urgent for us to start taking action, preparing for crises, and establishing a framework to protect ourselves, our families, our property, our neighbors, our homeland, our Monarchs, our world, our peace, and our future, whatever situations may arise!

Ever since I was deeply moved by reading anti-war literature in my elementary school library, I have tirelessly and relentlessly pondered and explored ways to achieve world peace, day and night, without rest. And now, I have finally found the answer how I can contribute to world peace! Below is the plan—please take a moment to read it!

Why Do Wars Happen?

The fundamental cause of the frequent conflicts and global instability in recent years can be seen as the absence of a hegemonic power! While the relative influence of the U.S. and Russia on the world stage is diminishing, the world as a whole is advancing, with the influence of developed countries like Japan, South Korea, and Europe, as well as emerging powers like China and India, growing in comparison. Furthermore, with the U.S. stepping down as the “world’s policeman” and Russia’s military collapsing after its failed invasion of Ukraine, both Pax Americana and Pax Sovietica have crumbled, and challengers to the existing world order are emerging all over the globe!

The Vacancy of the "World's Police"

At its peak, from the end of World War II to the 1960s, the international order established under America's overwhelming economic, military, and political power was known as Pax Americana (the American peace or American supremacy). Even after that, global peace continued under the bipolar system of U.S. and Soviet dominance, with the peace maintained by the Soviet-led communist bloc, centered on Russia, being called Pax Sovietica (or Pax Russica).

However, the long-lasting peace and the U.S.-led capitalism brought about global economic prosperity, leading to the rise of economic powers like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Europe, China, and India, which caused America's national power to weaken relatively. According to the World Bank, the U.S. accounted for about 40% of the world’s total production in 1960, but this figure decreased to around 35% in 1970, and by 2013, it had dropped to just over 20%.

As a result, the world has become more multipolar, and it has become increasingly difficult for the U.S. alone to maintain global peace through military force as it once did.

In 2013, President Obama declared that “America is no longer the world’s policeman,” signaling the end of Pax Americana. And with Russia’s military weakness exposed by its failed invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Pax Russica has also collapsed. Now, a troubling sense of "police absence" is spreading throughout the international community, with conflicts igniting in various regions!

In recent years, Father China, which has seen remarkable development, is often mentioned as a potential candidate for a new hegemonic power to replace the U.S. and Soviet Union. However, while it's not entirely impossible that China could one day become a superpower, accounting for more than 40% of the world’s total production like the U.S. once did, it is hard to imagine this happening in the near future.

Therefore, international tensions are likely to continue rising. As a result, there is increasing attention on peacekeeping strategies through regional integration, such as the European Union, and collective security measures, such as NATO.

My Proposal

As discussed above, the fundamental cause of global instability lies in the absence of a hegemonic power. Therefore, the quickest solution to restore and maintain world peace would be to establish a hegemonic power or alliance with unparalleled economic strength. I believe you now understand this point!

In the following section, I will explore concrete and practical ways to solve the issue of the absence of a hegemonic power and achieve world peace!

The Roadmap

First, we will establish the World Women's Parliament. A democratic parliament where all women can register as voters, integrating 5 billion women into a single political entity. I have already launched the "Planned Construction Site for the World Women's Parliament"!

↓

The World Women's Parliament is not just a conference. We will draft a moderate capitalist constitution, using the constitutions of advanced nations such as Japan, South Korea, Taiwan as models. Then, based on this constitution, we will separate government powers and judicial institutions. This can be called a nation without territory. Despite having no land, it will become the largest country in history. I have tentatively named it Queendom.

↓

We will secure financial resources and develop a budget to promote women's economic development. We will publicly solicit business proposals, select the best ones, invest in them, and establish countless companies. These will create many jobs, hiring men as laborers. We will generate significant profits, distribute the stocks to the parliament’s voters, and pay dividends to women. This will elevate women into the capitalist class.

↓

The goal is to reverse the economic power gap between men and women within 30 years. By doing so, Queendom will naturally control at least half of the world's wealth.

↓

With the power of money, we will create the strongest army, hire men as soldiers, rebuild the world's police, and achieve global peace.

↓

We will create an ideal world of peace and prosperity, where women enjoy life.

↓

We will recognize the sons of voters as honorary women. Honorary women will have the same rights as women, including the right to participate in the World Women's Parliament and to acquire shares in our companies. Since all of humanity is ultimately born from women, by recognizing the sons of voters as citizens of Queendom, within a few generations, all of humanity will be unified into a single political entity, achieving world unification.

↓

All of humanity will become capitalists, and poverty will be eliminated.

Pax Femina

The British novelist Virginia Woolf once said:"As a woman, I have no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world."

We will make this a reality in the literal sense!

By opening the World Women's Parliament by 2035 and achieving the integration of all women worldwide into a single political organization by 2065—when the global population is expected to peak—and reversing the economic power gap between men and women, humanity will witness the creation of an unprecedented superpower with 5 billion voters and at least half of the world’s wealth!

The projected political and economic power of this superpower will surpass any other in history! And if women wisely manage that wealth and power while adhering to the principles of democracy and capitalism, it will not be difficult to fill the vacant role of the "world's police" and restore global stability and peace!

The Military of the Queendom

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the total global military expenditure in 2023 was approximately $2.5 trillion. With global GDP around $100 trillion, military spending amounts to about 2.5% of it. Of that, the U.S. spends about $900 billion (0.9% of global GDP), China about $300 billion (0.3%), and Russia and India about $100 billion each (0.1%). Altogether, the military budgets of these four nations account for about 1.4% of global GDP.

Now, suppose the Queendom achieves its goals of (1) uniting all women of the world into one political organization, and (2) reversing the economic gap between men and women. This would result in a superpower with 5 billion enfranchised citizens and control over at least half the world’s wealth. If the Queendom were to allocate 3% of its GDP to military spending, its military budget would surpass 1.5% of global GDP—exceeding the combined GDP-ratio of the U.S., China, Russia, and India’s 2023 military budgets. This would be more than enough to achieve and maintain global peace.

Moreover, if the Queendom allocates 3.5% of its GDP, just like the U.S. does, its military budget would amount to over 75% of global military spending, exceeding the combined military budgets of the top 11 nations in 2023 (U.S., China, Russia, India, Japan, South Korea, UK, France, Germany, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia). For reference, in 2023, the U.S. accounted for 37.49% of global military expenditure.

About Soldiers

Naturally, we’ll hire men for the military! ^ We absolutely refuse to let women kill each other! In fact—compared to being forced onto battlefields for the stupid reasons of nation, ethnicity, language, or history, and dying a meaningless, terrifying, and humiliating death— Wouldn’t men be far happier to die with honor, protecting women? I firmly believe the men of the world would agree with us. And to boost the morale of our soldiers, we shall offer:

  • High salaries,

  • Honorary titles as “Ladies’ Knights” ""Honorary Women"",

  • Exceptionally sexy, elegant, and trendsetting military uniforms,

  • Guaranteed high social status,

  • Suffrage in the Women’s Parliament, and

  • Shares in Queen’s corporations, turning them into part of the capitalist class!

World Unification

Criticism such as, "Isn't this just hegemony by women and female domination?" is certainly valid!

Therefore, we will establish a Queendom’s Constitution that respects the basic human rights of men, and we will grant rights to boys who have parents that are voters in the World Women's Parliament, recognizing them as honorary women with the right to participate in the parliament, to receive dividends from Queen’s enterprises, and to access welfare provided by the Queen’s government!

After all, everyone is born from a woman, and if having parents who are voters in the World Women's Parliament is the condition for the Queendom’s nationality, we can unify not only all women but all of humanity into a single political body within a few generations, achieving global unity!

Additionally, we will open pathways for the partners of voters to participate politically, similar to foreign suffrage rights!

Through the Queendom, women will be integrated into a single political body, surpassing men economically and finally overcoming the disparities and discrimination between the sexes. Furthermore, they will include their sons and favored men as voters, allowing them to share in women’s wealth and rights. Ultimately, this will lead to the unification of all people and the realization of a sisterhood among all of humanity!

LOVE & PIECE!

How to explain to neurotypical person to understand some phrases or words they should not use around me?

1 Upvotes

I am almost 3 years now since I was diagnosed with aspergers( but here we’re I live they use autism as a broad term)

At first I kept this very private and only shared with a few people that I trusted.

Outside of family there was a friend and she was the first person I told.

In may I mentioned to her how a certain fictional character from an anime had over 30 autistic traits. I then explained some research I had found showing how often mental illnesses/dissabilities and neurodivergent traits are used in media and passed off as personality quirks. Which really hurts all of us because it dilutes the traits with personality so the rest of the public does not distinguish between one and the other.

I will explain more of that below after I finish telling my story.

I also told her that this doesn’t mean she now has to like the character.

Her response: Even thou that character has all those traits that belong to authistic people I do not recognize him as autistic. I don’t have problem with autistic people I have autistic friends.

This upset me. Not because she disagreed with the research but because of the way she phrased it.

What right does she have to decide what is an isn’t autistic? Even if it’s a fictional character.

This really caught me off guard. And I only wrote back. “I’m upset” she asked why. I tried making a comparison.

And she responded with the same literall thing she had just responded with.

At that point I cut off communication.

Apparently she thinks I am in the wrong and that I was forcing her to accept the research.

All I wanted was for her to watch her language.

I spoke to a mutual friend and they completely ignored that part and just wrongly focused on making it about me forcing her to accept the research.

I was already affected by the situation so I sent her(the mutual friend) the link and told them that this will explain what I mean a lot better than my own words.

She promised to read it and later on lied to me telling me that we were done with that topic. I didn’t bother arguing with them about that because I despise it when people break their promises and lie.

All of this happened and it caused the worst mental breakdown I have ever had I spent over 3 month depressed and being highly emotional. Only other close friends and family were there for me and they expressed concern thinking I would self harm. Every day I would just cry any time. I was sleeping about 15 hours a day.

Another mutual friend told me that she knows exactly what she did wrong and that she hasn’t apologized because of pride.

              The research

The research and articles I found explained how in many cases authors are unaware of the fact that traits they are using are associated with mental conditions.

An example is maybe the author interacted with someone who is autistic and they did not know, and so they made a character with all of those traits and said the character was an introvert or an arrogant person.

They could have also based the character on another character that was based on another character until eventually arriving at the author that based the character on a real person who was authistic, bipolar etc.

This affects everyone because it is mixing everything up and creating misconceptions.

Ok back story I had a service dog (Jada first image) for the past 9 years she ended up with cancer and we lost her last month. I finally started looking for a new pup that looked like her.

Well this week I found a pup at a place looked like her. She was in San Antonio ( I live in Iowa my gf is from that area though) I messaged the place on Tuesday night with my request for adoption.

Well I get a email the next morning saying it's under review and to wait 24-48 hrs. I send a reply to the email saying that I wanted the foster family to know that she was going to be my future service dog. I got told to tell the foster family when they call. I wait 24.. then 48 hrs ( this morning) and send another email which is where I got the reply above (image 2) well I respond saying I would drive over night to pick her up. I wait until 4 o'clock then have my Mom call them and leave a message. My family and I start making preparations for a trip from Iowa to San Antonio. Waiting for a call... wellll well....

We get a call at 6 o'clock saying that she was chosen by a family already. Even though she is still on the website.

Anyone else seem to not get along with servers and bartenders

4 Upvotes

I dont get along with servers, bartenders, or really anyone else in a “social” job. Every interaction I have with them is awful and I avoid eating out as a result (just do pick up to skip the servers- did that pre-pandemic too). I dont get along this bad in my everyday life or even my work life so I think it must be some sort of demographic factor of the people who work in these industries. This could be true: most waitresses seem to act like young stuck up sorority gurls or high school. Anyone else?

I'm destroyed

Me and my boyfriend bought an House a couple of months ago. We did a some renovation works and now we are moving in carrying all the stuff of the old rented flat in the new house. (Still a mess because we are moving in just the upstairs that is ready, and we will continue the works down while living there, because we have to leave the flat soon). Both me and my boyfriend are working full time.

My parents came from Italy to help us, (we live in Germany) and I appreciate it, but now everything is "too much". They are here since beginning of december (ticket of the flight back is end februar) and we lived until now in the flat while working in the house. So, 4 people + our pets (a 50 kg dog, a rat and 2 parrots) in less then 45 qm. Both me and my boyfriend are aspie (he has no official diagnosis but we are both pretty sure of that) and we are really calm and "lazy" people. We like to just chill and having our peace, spending time with our pets etc.

Since my are here we had not a single day for us, not even half a day. They are super active people and stressing a lot about the fact that we have no time, that we have to hurry,that also sleeping one hour more is making the difference.

The result is that since the 10 of December we are waking up at 6/7 (including weekends) , going to bed at 22/23 and working the whole time...

I feel super guilty for my animals too, because I have no time for them, my parrots are not interacting with me out of the cage since 2 months while they were used to hours free every day. The dog is just getting super small walks just for the basic needs, pee, poo and then back to work.

And they are also complaining a lot about how messy we are , because we have a lot of items (expecially me, I'm often buying random stuff like for new hobbies, clay, paint, books to color, papercrafting and various stuff like that).

I'm destroyed guys... I just needed to talk about it...

📢 Appel à participation - Avis des personnes autistes, de leurs proches, et des professionnels de santé sur les modules proposés au sein des groupes d'habiletés sociales

0 Upvotes

Bonjour,

Dans le cadre du stage recherche de mon master 2, je participe à une étude visant à collecter les avis des différents acteurs des groupes d'habiletés sociales sur les modules proposés au sein de ces groupes, et je suis à la recherche de participants.

👤 Ce questionnaire est destiné aux personnes autistes, ayant reçu un diagnostic formel, en cours de diagnostic, ou auto-diagnostiquées, à leurs proches, et aux professionnels de santé travaillant avec eux.

⏰environ 20 minutes

📁Ce questionnaire est anonyme

Pourquoi cette étude ? Malgré un nombre important de recherches sur les groupes d'habiletés sociales, peu d'études se sont intéressées à l'avis de l'ensemble des acteurs de ces groupes, et en particulier des personnes autistes, sur ce type d'intervention. Notre but est de comprendre les attentes qu'ils peuvent avoir de ce type de groupe, et les modules qu'ils jugent pertinents ou au contraire inutile, voire même nocifs au sein des groupes d'habiletés sociales.

Voici le lien du questionnaire : https://sondages.inshea.fr/index.php/595632?lang=fr

N'hésitez pas à le partager autour de vous si vous connaissez des personnes concernées.

Merci pour votre aide !
