That unbearable feeling, almost physically painful, of hearing people talk in an uninformed way about one of your pet subjects, so uncomfortable that you have to leave the room until they change the subject, because if you start telling them why they’re wrong, you will never, ever stop. #NeurodivergentProblems.

@Julie OH YES THIS.

@Julie Sometimes this just feels like the constant experience of being online, lol
@krisnelson This example was in person! But yes, online is the usual venue.
@Julie You mean.. having to interact… with real people? Right there in front of you?! No screens involved?!?!?! Dunno, sounds fake.
@Julie This, but it's your parents, with whom you are currently sharing a house.
