Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

MODERATORS
An AuDHD perspective: Neurotypicals tend to lack curiosity and passion for interests. They're less in-touch with their senses, sometimes needing mind-altering substances in order to appreciate basic sensory stimuli. Not only that, but they are overly-invested in "following the group" and "blending in," even if it ends up harming them.
So yeah, you might be onto something.
I like to call it Attention Surplus Disorder. It's crazy to me how most people can just focus on something for 50 hours a week that they're not interested in at all, and this doesn't set off warning bells in their head.
Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of antiwork neurotypicals, but it seems weird how many people actively support it.
I think for most people it's just a matter of tradeoffs. You don't have to be interested in the act of doing something in order to be interested in the consequence of doing that thing.
Someone who doesn't like driving may still drive, and concentrate on driving the entire time, to get to a destination where they want to end up. For someone who doesn't like to cook but wants to eat hot food, cooking is a means to that end.
Now, if you're saying that you don't think that tradeoff is worth it to you, maybe that's true of them if they stop to think about it, too. But I'm not sure that's what's going on for most people who continue to work jobs they don't like.
What self-important bullshit 🤣
That'll be the autism.
Average neurotypical reaction. Can't expect them to understand 🤷
You literally can not expect them to understand.
Imagine thinking normal people don't have hobbies and then acting superior about it on the Internet...
Imagine
No no you guys have hobbies! You're valuable members of society and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Says the guy who just had his feeling of superiority threatened.
When the interest at issue is human relationships and social norms, I think it flips the other way around.
Better to characterize things by what type of interests tend to appeal to which.
Idk, dude. I've met people I swear are autistic but social but they're overly rigid about social norms and being polite. I don't buy it (what you're saying). Anyone can be interested in anything.
Yeah, but I'm responding to a comment that says that neurotypical people aren't curious or passionate about the things they're interested in, and I think that's too narrow of a way to define "interest."
I'd reject that way of thinking because that principle could be weaponized to accuse some neurodivergent people of not caring about people by misreading why they might not be great with social cues or things like that.
