The matrix space of this community or an engineering faculty.
Just because I’m an engineer doesn’t mean I’m autistic!
I mean, I am autistic.
But not because I’m an engineer!
Greetings from hell (i’m an engineering student)
Same lol. Had three group assignments last semester, not fun.
last one I had, the group had a civil war and three diffeent versions of the same thing were made
You’re not autistic because you’re an engineer, but are you an engineer because you’re autistic?
you understand you just insulted my entire group of people!
…but yes
Linux community
If you mean -in person- then there is quite likely an autism social society in your area, they probably have a web presence, cuz otherwise we would never find them. So search up words like that and see if you get any results nearby.
The club and social activities will generally be oriented more towards the more profoundly affected members, but it’s common that the volunteers working with them will also be autistic but able to handle organisation and responsibility of the other members. So whichever you are looking for, you’ll find them there.
Hiiiii
Also, I seem to find we naturally attract each other on mastodon/fedi.
presumably, you’re already in the right place!
Though, generally all over all kinds of places in the web you’ll find communities of neurodiverse and/or autistic people :)
I know this might sound strange but autistic people are roughly 3x more likely to be LGBT so you could consider going to an LGBT meetup. I’m neurodivergent and LGBT and that certainly matches my experience.
LGBT people and groups can be pretty toxic though
My sister is a trans lesbian and she has had gay liberals call for her to be hate crimed at Trump rallies.
Conservative Christians are more accepting of her then liberals.
I was repeatedly harassed in my old friend group of people who were made up of LGBT people because I was straight and cis. Eventually they convinced me to “consider” being non binary and then started simply telling me I was while insulting and bad talking cis males. If I ever objected they asked why I was defending something I wasn’t. Eventually they shunned me out of their friend group for not conforming enough.
My sister is trans and gay and this statistic makes me uncomfortable. It can easily be abused by religious people.
Religious nutjobs are going to abuse anything you give them either way.
I’m a Christian.
Me too!
how does that stop you from going to a meetup?
Do you have a special interest? Is there a community for it? Start there.
This 100%
