Storror, a UK parkour collective. Amazingly talented, made an unbelievable documentary about doing parkour on the rooftops of Asia. I still watch every week but they've done parkour like once in the last 3 months. Everything else is

  • We climbed this weird building
  • Can we escape from this pit?
  • We wrapped ourselves in bubble wrap
  • Stuck in a hollow tree!!

Then there are "water challenges", ie fairly easy jumps but you fall in a canal if you miss. One guy already had a career ending injury doing this and is now a camera man, another hurt himself badly and you can tell he's lost patience with it.

There's always been a connection. The German Lebensreform movement on the one hand influenced the hippy movement in the US through a back-to-nature philosophy, while on the other hand evolved into the blood and soil philosophy of the Nazi party. Occultism was also popular in the Nazi party, and Odinist paganism is very popular with European neo-Nazis.

The modern spiritual movement is made up of middle class women who believe in the divine feminine creating the gift of life, children which they need to protect from vaccines which cause autism and perverts who want to sexualise them. It's not a long road from there to being an anti-LGBT trad wife who believes in QAnon.

But he specifically said that not everyone has to like it.

He said not everyone can handle it, implying there's something with people that don't like it.

There's this irritating Emperor's New Clothes thing with movies and TV lately where creators can make the most boring stuff imaginable, and then when people say it's boring you simply imply they aren't smart enough to understand it.

Weird how it's literally impossible to ever live without something no one had 100 years ago

Funny thing is, my career is more successful than my parents but their pensions are still more than I earn lmao

Proving my point? You're a non-disabled person trolling a disability forum with ableism, but you think you have some righteous justification because you know somebody with a more severe disability. And you'll never self reflect on it. Spicyautism in a nutshell.

I'm the opposite, I avoid them because I have no idea what a lot of memes and reaction images are supposed to mean.

There was one people used all the time of a woman in a pink suit with her hands on her knees kind of squinting that was just baffling. Like what, are you tired, angry, horny?

No problem. I remember talking to my friend who works in autism support before my assessment, and I was shocked when he said it's still valid to identify as autistic even if you get a negative diagnosis. I said "they wouldn't like that on the autism forums" and he just rolled his eyes. The online community really isn't what the community is like!

My assessor said the same thing. There's a spectrum of symptoms and no objective test, and ultimately for low support needs, whether yours reach the clinical significance for a diagnosis is a judgement call. You wouldn't have passed the preliminary meeting to get a full assessment at all if you didn't have autistic traits.

Spicyautism came about as a troll subreddit for non-autistic parents of autistic children to talk about how much they hate low support needs autistic adults. They only posts there that get more than 20 upvotes are "Here's why I don't think L1s really have autism"

We „the autistic community“ have decided that self diagnosis is valid and that is a fact.

So true and I recommend anyone who spends time in online autism communities just get involved in IRL autism communities instead. I find online autism communities utterly toxic and full of gatekeeping and hatred for self diagnosis, which no one I've met in person has ever had a problem with.

Ha, I was thinking about "how to make friends" advice earlier. When you ask NTs how to make friends they just list places you can go. They assume once you're in a place with other people you will naturally make friends with them.

Locating humans is not the problem!
