Like even within long term waiting there are huge differences with what I do depending on exactly how much time I have.

    Yes some ND experiences can be universalized to an extent but its the acute, specific and overwhelming way that effects us that is the point

    I’m trying to express that a well-organized and well-run bureaucracy benefits everyone. In the same way that, say, wheelchair ramps benefit more people than just those in wheelchairs and flashing alarms benefit more than just deaf people, a queue system that gives you some idea of time-to-turn benefits more than just people with acute autism.

    The ask that autistic people make is only necessary because the logistical infrastructure that should be a default expectation across bureaucratic systems isn’t built out or maintained. And the reason for that kind of cheapo/lazy deployment of infrastructure stems from a deliberate impermanence that everyone is expected to endure in a socio-economic system that hates durable public institutions.
