If they wanted me to follow some rules that I’m apparently expected to know to make everyone comfortable, maybe they should’ve taught me that in school instead of trigonometry -_-
Whoa, trig doesn’t deserve to be catching strays like that
Oh I didn’t mean disrespect against it, it is just the first school-soundy thing that came to mind.
With that said I I will admit I couldn’t tell you off the top of my head what trigonometry actually is.

Did you intentionally mention everyone back to the OP, or is that just how your instance works?
They might be on mastodon.
Oh, yep, looks like it. Didn’t know Mastodon works with Lemmy. That’s neat.
ActivityPub sure is great
IKR? My next vanity project will be updating the blog software I wrote to use ActivityPub for the comment section. I don’t know if it’ll work, but I’m sure I’ll learn something trying!
No, that would be your parents‘ task.
I used to think like this but let’s be honest, it’s not a fair shake. Social services should be somewhat capable of making up for poor, abusive, or absent parenting. School being the one social service children are practically guaranteed to interact with, it seems like a fair approach.
In this scene, everyone is annoyed at Homer because he put on his weird music. “Don’t play your weird music“ is definitely one of those rules I keep defying
My most common sin is inadvertently bringing up painful or offensive topics.
Someone’s dad died last week? You can bet I’ll forget and start talking about Dads on accident. In fact, it happens so often that I almost think my subconscious does remember and that’s how it ends up on my mind.
Generally stuff like that is held against someone when they didn’t even know their dad died, or didn’t realize that that particular person would overreact by being reminded of something that doesn’t seem associated.
Basically, caring far more about someone’s reaction than intent (or lack thereof) that accidentally upsetting someone is breaking a social norm.
Is this an ADHD thing too? I thought this was an autism thing
Ahh, the symptoms pool overlap…
There’s a lot of overlap, but it’s an autistic thing. ADHD had no effect on social skills.
This is definitely not an adhd thing
You can achieve the same effect through different ways. Just because ADHD people happen to break those rules it doesn’t mean they have to break them for the same reasons as autistic people for example.
That’s social behaviors, like talking over others. It’s not lack of picking up social cues which is that “unwritten rule” your post is mentioning.
