I'm in this twitter thread and I don't know how I feel about it.

(... I wrote that title and then I stared at that title and then I laughed because...)

Anyway. Twitter thread.

Good thread, yes. I use Tarot or other cartomancy, usually, or the Tessera Oracle, but yes I do that, sometimes.

I got Justice today as my one card draw and I thought it was appropriate.

...is a three day delay in knowing how you feel a common neuroatypical thing? Because that's totally me in many cases; I learned early on that in any major relationship change I need to not make binding statements before three days. That's how long it takes me to figure out if I'm mad or fine with this, heh. It's like there's a whole long cycle that goes "Crisis response: be super calm! Triage! Figure out what can or cannot be saved! Then, much later, have feelings about it."

That is a pretty excellent self-referential self-referent there, heh.

I think alexithymia is more common among ND folks (I hear it more for autistic but I wouldn't be surprised by others as well) but not exclusively so.

My timelapse varies and has gotten a lot shorter over time (first and second passes) but also "but actually, this is going on" is totally a thing that happens long after things are 'resolved' and I should absolutely take up using divination as a tool to hack the alexithymia.

Three days strikes me as doing really well.

There are things I'm still trying to figure out twenty years later.

I showed the thread to Wife, and she laughed, because yup, that's us too.
