37 what? Inches tall? Then your expectations might be a bit too much.

One man's time at home is another man's time doing something productive! That makes sense, right?

What a coincidence. I'm a 37 year old who doesn't work or go to university.

But the government gives me money not to work, because I'm autistic.

I don't game as much as you would think, though.

And no, I don't feel any shame for being a leech and not contributing my labor to society. I didn't ask to draw the shit straw in life, so I'm happy to be compensated for it.

I didn't really care until you said that. Now you come across as smug.

Well, yeah, it's not like you have a physical disability.

So if they just made jobs accessible to people on the spectrum, you'd be able to work just fine. Their fault tbh. >_>

Yeah well..

After what a giant pile of shit this country has become, why not be smug about leeching off it?

Why feel ashamed about anything anymore?

Maybe I'm coping, but it sure feels better than self loathing.

I really don't want to work. Remaining isolated is how I get through life.

If it came down to it, I'd honestly rather be dead.

Smart boy. Doing either of those right now are terrible choices. Lay some ground rules and tell him he has a month to really put time into learning something and if he can't do it then kick him out.

In my case, while I do live with my mom, I don't just freeload here. I pay the electric bill, I prepare all the meals, I do the dishes, I do my own laundry.

But I don't do volunteer work because pfff why?

Well that makes you a legit homemaker. Wives do that all the time, so there's nothing wrong with it.

Outside of school or work I generally don't do shit else lmao.

I'm not 100% dependent, but still pretty dependent.

But hey, I'm autistic and this is the best I can do.
