I'm learning French, long ago I found the idiom "c'est la vie" (this is life), and I like it quite a lot, it describes struggles that are common to human life, but then I found this one "c'est la vie de l'autiste" "this is the life for the autistic (person)", and I kinda fell in love with the idiom.

I think it is a beautiful idiom to describe our common struggles and hardships we face as autists, our shared problems and experience navigating trough life, and I thought I would like to share it, because I think is such a nice way to describe what unite us as autistic persons, the common struggles.

We get misunderstood, we misunderstand, we don't get the context, we hurt people without intention, we can't tolerate food, noises, textures, we get obsess on the topics we love only to find people don't care as much as we do, and so much more, for sure, for most autists, only some of these things are true for them, but on average, they are very real.

And yeah, I'm only focusing on the sad,

Autistic people are usually portrayed as change-adverse, and a lot of times traditional-tending people, and for sure some are, i have meet a few, but at the same time, a lot of new or alternative stuff is full to the brim of autists as well, like here, the Fediverse, is reasonably easy to find autists here, linux is another great example, linux spaces are full of linux-autist too.

In my experience, some autistic people are way more open to give a chance to new or different stuff than most people, not all autists, for sure, but many enough to notice this pattern, i think all people i have ever convinced to try linux are autistic, not even a single NT.
