He loves history. He wanted to write a biography of John Quincy Adams. I, shamefully, knew almost nothing about John Quincy Adams, so I went online and bought every biography of him I could find. One day, he called me, claiming that we wouldn’t work out long term. He said he loved me but that we had different interests. “What does love mean to you?” I said. “That’s an impossible question,” he replied. I, however, find love to be quite simple. Love is the stack of biographies on my nightstand with a bookmark near the end.

Hello everyone!

A follower of mine is doing a survey online and needs autistic participants:

The myth that autistic people don’t experience empathy is everywhere, and has persisted without any substantial research. In fact, the first study to investigate autism and empathy only occurred in 2002, and was a case study of only 2 people.

Our study aims to expand our knowledge of autism and empathy and disprove the myth that autistic people don’t experience empathy — and we need your help to do it. We’re looking for autistic adults currently living in the United States to take our short, 15 minute survey. We especially encourage autistic people who identify as women and/or as self diagnosed to take part, as both groups are chronically underrepresented in autism research.

The study is below:

Your contribution will play an incredibly important role in expanding the research community’s understanding of autism and empathy. Thank you for helping us as we seek to illuminate and appreciate the diverse experiences of empathy in the autistic community!

Thank you to all who participated. It’s greatly appreciated. ♥️

If you have any questions or concerns please contact @a-bookmarkneartheend and I’m sure they’ll be happy to help.
