I genuinely don’t understand how my neurotypical friends survive in that place. Just day after day of relentless achievement and attainment and materialism and status and money and always feeling like you’re not good enough and worrying what people think of you.

Meanwhile, they don’t understand how I have 100 hobbies

People are always like oh isn’t life in San Francisco very stressful, and I’m like um no it’s relaxed in comparison, it’s also cheaper, and

While sometimes people think I moved here because I’m queer, which I am, I also think it is just a better place for me as an autistic person to live (there are so many people like me)

For every random hobby or special interest I am interested in, there is a free group or resource of club or free event I can go to

The image depicts a backyard patio area enclosed by wooden fences. In the foreground, a person's legs are visible, wearing blue jeans and black shoes, with a pair of keys and a black object on a gray wicker coffee table. A brown dog with a harness is lying on the patio, near a gray wicker sofa. To the right, a gray wicker chair is covered with a gray fabric cover. The patio is paved with large stone tiles, and there are some plants and a house visible in the background.

In the center, there is a set of outdoor furniture consisting of two armchairs and a small table, all in a dark gray color. The armchairs are positioned facing each other, suggesting a space for conversation. To the left, a wooden fence with a dark gray finish runs along the back, while a lighter wooden fence is on the right. A white shed with a closed door is visible in the background, and a gate with a wooden X-pattern is partially open. Above, the sky is overcast with gray clouds, and beyond the fence, residential houses can be seen.

@ricardo Oh, what a time to be alive — now I can easily translate all Soviet/Russian jokes about General Secretaries and presidents and they will be understandable by ppl who never lived in these countries

"One american eldery woman saw the camel first time in her life. And she immediately started to crying. When she was asked: why is she crying? The woman answered: Look! What the American authorities have done to a horse!"

"The Robert F Kennedy and Donald Trump flying in the plane in the Washington DC sky. Robert looks down and see the big queues of homeless people, trying to get some food from the charities. And Kennedy says to Trump: «Look! If you drop down some food, then the people will love you and they happily kiss you!» Suddenly the plane pilot answered: «If I drop down both of you — then the people will LOVE me and kiss me so much! 🙂»"

"Donald Trump was asked: «Why are there deficit of eggs in the stores?» And he answered: «Oh you know, the chickens can't keep up with us, running in the bright future of Great America»"

Beware when boosting! In Soviet Russia some of these andecdotes lead to the 10 years in the jail and 3 years with loss of citizen rights. Photo of criminal case attached.

Das Video zeigt eine nächtliche Szene in Berlin, Deutschland, während der 'Critical Mass Berlin' am 29.8.2025 stattfindet. Es beginnt mit einer unscharfen Ansicht einer beleuchteten Straße, auf der mehrere Fahrradfahrer unterwegs sind. Die Textüberlagerung 'Critical Mass Berlin 29.8.2025' ist deutlich sichtbar. Die Fahrradfahrer, einige in hellem Schutzkleidung, fahren in einer Gruppe, und die Straßenlaternen und Fahrzeuglichter erzeugen ein lebhaftes Lichtspiel. Polizeifahrzeuge mit blauen Lichtern sind ebenfalls zu sehen, was auf die Sicherheit der Veranstaltung hinweist.

Die Fahrradfahrer bewegen sich durch die Stadt, und die Szene wird durch die Bewegung und das Licht der Stadt belebt. Die Gruppe fährt unter einer Brücke hindurch, und die Straßenlaternen und die Beleuchtung der Gebäude sorgen für eine lebendige Atmosphäre. Die Fahrradfahrer halten an, um die Ampel zu warten, und die Gruppe bleibt zusammen, was die Gemeinschaft und den Zusammenhalt unter den Teilnehmern unterstreicht.
