Autism brain can get latched on technical issues and have no awareness of just how much people with different attitudes about art and entertainment, like Rock Stars making music, do things different.
I’ve had to think of analogies of the situation. Like criticizing the maintenance cost or oil leak of an exotic sports car. And not realizing it’s all about the ‘hand crafted’ nature and not about practicality.
On the Reddit adult autism community people have shared experiences about drinking. For some autistic people it helps, others say it causes them problems.
I haven’t drank heavy since New Years, but I had to drink to reset my brain over my social interpretation mistake.
I just got too worked up over the style and fashion of a art-centered creative project. And I really regret how I didn’t realize the social situation. I really regret that I worried about a problem taking so long to be fixed when I haven’t found a single other person who cares about it. Stupid brain. Social things like this can be so confusing some times, I didn’t even realize it.
Street vendor food. wildly different social conversions and standards people have I don’t have troubles with those, but “Rock Star” culture in business/workplace and music/entertainment/art cultures can confuse me. I get bewildered why people would let Harvey Weinstein get away with so much for so many years. That kind of “Rock Star” culture and how people have different standards for what they consider normal… bewildering. Rock Star politicians, I’ve never seen the appeal of wearing clothing with a politician on it. I have such a hard time seeing these situations, my mind doesn’t go there. But I can be that way about actual rock stars, art, so the problem I am having I am just shifting my mind to interpret the whole situation that way.
But I feel so dumb and stupid for not recognizing it earlier.
