1st email

The AI design of your email is clever, but significantly lacks warmth.

Would it be possible to be contacted by a human being moving forward instead of AI?

Many thanks,

Response email

It's not an AI. I'm just Autistic.

See you next Friday.

Rule

Meme: Two panels. Left panel is an Uno card that reads, "Understand situational context or draw 25." The right panel is labelled Me and has a drawing of the number 25 with the pencil placed underneath.

caption: I don’t struggle with autism. I’m actually very good at it.

Image: Lisa Simpson giving a presentation with a determined disposition.

Caption on the screen: The "double-empathy problem" is misnamed because it is not a problem. It is a theory that explains why we observe limited empathy between autistic and non-autistic individuals. Not only is it not a problem, it is a solution because it helps us understand why things are the way they are. Stop calling it a problem. It is now the "interneurotype empathy divide"...or something. Idk, but it is not a problem.

Probably why sometimes it takes me a while to recognize people.

Image: 2 panels.

• 1st: Someone holding up two cards, one is a picture of Michael Keaton and the other of Bruce Willis. The caption reads, "Corporate needs to you find the differences between this person and this person."

• 2nd: Pam from the office labelled as Me saying, "They're the same person."

Edit: Gemini believes that they're 2 different people.

Caption: My body is a machine that turns complex social situations into flashbacks.

I don’t know why, but somehow these two words summed up 50% of my life

Pro-tip: Asking permission to interrupt to say your bit goes down much much better than just interjecting
