Same. I have two alarms dedicated to just 'washing machine' and 'call pharmacy' because I will forget those every single time and end up with no clean underwear and no medication. The only problem is when I'm in a situation where I can't immediately write something down and/or set an alarm for something, like when I'm in the shower. Then whatever I thought of will simply be lost to the void forever.

The 'under 1 billion' part implies genocide, because that is literally never gonna happen - in a time frame where we wouldn't have to rethink housing and nature right now and the next few decades - otherwise without a major worldwide catastrophe. Sure, climate change might take care of it (again, decades away and people need housing now, also, these solutions actually help with climate change) but then we won't have to worry about silly things like housing ever again.
Take it from someone who is autistic, highly introverted and has only lived in apartments in my adult life: you do not ever need to see or interact with your neighbors. It's as optional as with a house. The most I see of my neighbors is that once every few weeks I might stand in the elevator with one of them for 15 seconds.
Fun fact about the guillotine, it's not named after the person who 'invented' it (there were other iterations outside of France). Or well, it was briefly, it was called the louisette after Antoine Louis, but the guy named Guillotin was just the person who proposed using it as a more humane way to carry out the death penalty instead of the more brutal breaking wheel at the very beginning of the French Revolution.
I have a really hard time understanding the lyrics when I listen to songs (maybe because I'm autistic and have some auditory processing issues) so I'm often wildly wrong about them.
My cats are always the most interested in getting a piece of something that is very toxic to them. Which to be fair is a lot, but still. They'll be looking at my breakfast like mom can I please have some F R U I T 🙀
Agreed. I live in a European country where it's very normal to let your cats outside, and I was a mail carrier for 4 years, so I got to pet so many cats 5 days a week. You do the pspsps, then crouch a bit and extend the hand. They either ignore you and move or on they're interested and come to you and bam you're petting a sweet kitty.
Bupropion? Bupropion is an NDRI, you'll feel the effects of alcohol less on it.
Goddamn don't let Austrians hear you just called them German
Where in the world do you not put beans in chili? That's literally the point of chili. Is this an American thing I'm too European to understand?
I had to do an official test along with a psychological examination for reasons when I was almost 18 years old, so I know at some point I was in the blue zone or above, but it doesn't really fucking matter when you have autism, a mood disorder and have been neglected by your parents so you never learned things like determination or frustration tolerance. I think I shaved a solid 10 IQ points off anyway from almost a decade of substance abuse issues, so now I'm just autistic and dysfunctional without the gifted part.
I'm like this too from a combination of being a gifted kid in the 90s and being neglected by my parents. There's starting to be more recognition that the very high above average kids need as much support as the very low below average kids, but it used to be just a nice break for the teachers because they just put you in the corner with a book and considered it as one less kid to worry about. So you go through life being instantly good at everything that is expected of you, and then when you have to actually apply yourself, you haven't learned any skills for dealing with frustration and disappointment at all. I've become better at it over the years but it definitely still impacts my life.
