I would add:
- Calculators being named after an actual job title
Iconography in modern UI has so many relics of the ancient past
save icon being a floppy disk
the phone app being an old bone shaped handset
voicemail being a picture of a recording tape
"home" being represented by an actual house
my mythology pet peeve is when someone describes a scenario in which they keep nearly getting something and then having it snatched away, and everyone's like "one must imagine sisyphus" no!!! one must imagine TANTALUS!!! sisyphus = being made to perform a pointless, aggravating task over and over without ever making any progress. tantalus = being offered a glorious reward only for it to vanish as soon as you reach for it. they are NOT the same

Hi everyone,
I thought I would share this interesting Infograph about ASD I found on Pinterest. I found this very fascinating so I hope you all do too.
Autism Spectrum
“I am, after all, the predator hawk. I kill to eat.
But I am also the human being. And I can never take a life, not even for my own survival, without feeling.
I had heard my father’s message come down through the years. Now I heard the message my own mind was telling me: You are both, Tobias. Hawk and human. You always will be. You will always kill to eat. And you will always regret.
It’s a rotten situation, I guess. But my duty is to be what I am. A hawk. A boy. Instinct. And emotion. I’ll have to go on walking that tightrope.”
- Tobias, Book #23: The Pretender, pg. 153 (by K.A. Applegate)
Hi everyone,
I found some more information about autistic burnout. According to this article:
“Autistic Burnout is usually a consequence of camouflaging or masking for either an extended period or over a period of time without a break, as it takes a huge amount of effort. It can also be a result of sensory overload, executive functioning demands (juggling too many tasks at once), or stress associated with unexpected change(s).
Over time, burnout can affect a person's overall health as the body's resources are being used, and not being replaced, which also leaves nothing spare for any recovery.”
I’ll leave the link here in case you’d like to read the entire article.
I hope many of you find this helpful.

The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, by Ilan Pappé (2006)
Just a reminder that Israel was built, by design, on ethnic cleansing.
