https://youarenotsosmart.com/2022/09/05/yanss-241-the-poisonous-psychology-behind-our-perpetual-drive-to-pursue-respect-adoration-fame-and-status/ You know how a lot of autistic or neurodivergent folks grow up thinking that there's some hidden game that everyone else knows the rules to?

Thank you for the kind offer! I would be interested in trying the superglue scent, but no rush or obligation. If my current stress levels reduce, I might ask my circle (you included) about a winter solstice gift exchange? But I might be even sleepier come December, so we shall see.
