Jeremy MallinI had a realization about my #SensoryIssues last night…
None of my #AuditoryTriggers exist in nature. They are all 100% caused by human technology.
🤔
Yet another reason for my biophilia?
Kim@JeremyMallin @actuallyautistic Right as my neighbor starts his car with a rusty exhaust pipe producing a very loud rumbling, and just sits there with his car running for 5 minutes before driving off. YOU DON'T NEED TO WARM UP THE ENGINE FFS 😫 JUST DRIVE.
Nature is mixed for me. Birds can be pretty loud on a bad day so I tend to wear my earplugs even there. But generally, nature has a very different noise level for sure. Wish I had better access to less populated areas here.

I can literally feel the rattle of your neighbor’s exhaust pipe, in that hyper empathic way many of us autists do.
Rattling metals are the worst.
@f1337 Rattling is an apt description. My ears rattle, my brain rattles, my *soul* rattles.
Thank you for your sympathy 😄
