The word play, Love that! Succinct point put beautifully. Well done!

A long uhhhhhmmmm until they stop talking

Me when I indicate I want to talk, but they have already changed topic.

I haven’t thought about it like that before. When I told my ex I want to leave a party she would say “we’re leaving” and keep talking for 20 minutes. I’m like “wtf? We said we’re leaving, why aren’t we leaving”. She used to say “slowly leaving”. And it always frustrated me. As there is no slowly leaving. There’s leaving and there’s not leaving.

Just knowing you are autistic and learning about it can improve your life

Great! You just found your way to fall asleep instantly! Use it to get some more sleep in general :p

That’s a good mentality. I will start using that, thanks!

My phone has literally died many times because I wouldn’t plug it in, with the charger cable *being within reach! *

What about staying at 0? Why is debt better than no debt AND no surplus?

But I didn’t do anything productive so I don’t deserve the pillow.

I feel like this in everything I do. I’m trying the trick of “force yourself to cheer when you do something, when if small”, but it just feels like I’m lying to myself. How do you get out of this hole?
