I am helping many needy peoples.
Autism ?
Interesting. How do you think thats your advantage?
I'm HFA, so sometimes lack of empathy, sometimes better understanding of things in general, a little bit like "the good doctor", can be rather strange to neurotypical, but it often does the job
My hair turns copper-gold in the summertime when I'm out in the sun for a few days in a row.
Born in Europe, Not an immigrant, financially stable, free education, not part of any significant minority
I don't feel any part of me that itches to make posts like this on the internet, and I appreciate that advantage.
Having travelled a lot, I feel I was born into what I consider a great country just as it was starting to pull itself out of poverty. Pure chance.
I got a good education and college was essentially free.
I have a lot of kids and work really hard at being a good dad so I am surrounded by love. I am very lucky that I am married twenty years (some better than others) to someone who still loves me and who I still love. Some days that love is all that keeps me going because fuck me I am exhausted haha.
I feel uncomfortable typing all that out but it's a good exercise in thankfulness so thank you.
White + was lucky to get a good job early on + parents had enough capital in their home to guarantor for my home loan at 28.
English teacher who made me write a 500 word essay every day for a semester.
I dunno. I feel I get worse and worse at things the older I get.
So, you did not die young?
yeah that ship has sailed.
I have an IQ of 123 in spacial recognition.
If you're logic enough the next step is 1234
My dad died back in 2016 when I was 25 so I got an early inheritance to invest at a good time.
Absolute, fanatical concentration.
Being born in our times.
I'm white, my family is middle-ish class, I don't pay rent.
20-something English-speaking cis hetero white American male, stable supportive family I keep strong ties with, four-year university STEM degree, gainfully employed at a low-stress job full of people I like that affords a comfortable, reasonably above modest lifestyle, no outstanding debts, no severe health issues or crippling disibilities.
I've certainly won more than my fair share of cosmic lotteries, all things considered.
Only thing I guess I'm missing is a partner, which is entirely due to my own lack of effort. So far sailing solo hasn't bothered me any. But I do occasionally daydream about what I might be missing out on...
