What was counterintuitive for you?

two days ago, woke up, frozen feet. three pairs of socks and a jacket

took off socks and jacket. feet got warmer.

counterintuitive

when i was in school, i made the wrong assumption that students that did well academically would earn more $$$ in the future.

counterintuitive

wrong

some of the ASMs @ home depot would be hard pressed to put together two grammatically correct sentences. i would be surprised if their reading/writing/math skills were above grammar school level. their emotional resilience and social skills not that great either.

some precious lil "people" act really nice, but they have "ulterior motives" and "underlying issues" and just wanna manipulate you to do what they want you to do. they don't "care" about anyone except themselves.

the harder you try to sleep, the harder it is to fall asleep.

the more you obsess about calories the more you wanna gorge.

the days are long, but the years are short.

Having a schedule.
Which is utterly ironic for an autistic.

Nah.
I know where it came from; my body has no sense of day to day cycle despite that my brain craves it, it's just wont happen no matter how I desired it to be.
So instead of predictability and order, I got imposed pressure and rigidity that I start ignoring any alarms and reminders in favor of whatever it's feeling like doing. And no, I do not have ADHD or the true form of novelty seeking thingy; I'm still easily emotionally dysregulated by any other emotions including boredom.

This is more like my own hypersensitized interoception and how stupid loud my body is that I cannot ignore it well.

My body refuses to give my brain a sense of continuity. Any routines and schedules I successfully tried to do and implement will be disrupted hormonally within a week. Even past that, nothing goes past 100th day mark for me for the same reasons.

every since starting work @ home depot five years ago, hardly ever got sick, despite: germs, sleep deprivation, diet, stress. before that, got sick, like frequency intensity duration. (counterintuitive)

really really good precious lil "people" that end up showing that they were homophobic.

one of the former lumber associates, about 4'9, could lift eighty pound bags of concrete.

I'm prone to both hot flashes & cold chills. Some of it is probably related to hormone imbalances; the simple explanation is to just say I'm on meds for being slightly transgendered. I've always had a low tolerance to both heat & cold. I'm majorly out of shape & being physically active for a bit like walking home carrying groceries makes me hot & sweat even when the temp is below freezing & I was very cold when I first went outside.

When I'm more active I start to feel like I have more energy compared to when I'm more sedentary.

Sometimes trying too hard to do something makes it harder to succeed. For example, sleep

counterintuitive: rodents that eat atrocious diets @ work, act so energetic and work full time. meanwhile i just work part time and i am exhausted all the time.
