Oh no dont worry that time I nearly passed out when people started suddenly screaming next to my ear was totally normal! In fact its completely okay for me to start dissociating when people start yelling thats just prey instinct!!! Oh and also doesnt anyone genuinely fear for their life when they walk outside alone? no? anyone? im just a normal bunny :(

was going to include a couple more doodles with this but, am busy, oh well

dont know if its super obvious or not but Popsicle is very much a projection of my own anxiety and mental illness, I wouldnt say shes supposed to be exactly like me but she is definately a comfort sona

I have to at least give rfk one thing...

Many autistic people don't pay taxes. And its not out of incapacity or unemployment...

It's out of obligation.

My Autism: Man, I love reading other peoples rants/opinions/rambles about my special interests and hyperfixations.

My ADHD: I dont care if it's about my special interests THAT is 8 paragraphs and it should be 12 but they didn't break it up well so it looks like 8 consecutive walls of run on text. If I try to read that, my eyes will melt out of my skull.

Ok so like, lineland was great fun in flatland. I always liked how the methods of "seeing"/awareness changed relative to dimensions. In point land, the king had no concept of sight, and considered all sound to be his own conciousness. This could be considered level one: no sight, no touch, poor hearing.

Lineland is heavily focused on hearing and singing, with it being the primary method of understanding your neighbours. The music from two mouths of a male linelander allows for their length to be determined after all. Touch is possible in this dimension, though like the line segments in flatland, it is lethal. So at level two, we have no sight, poor/lethal touch, and excellent hearing.

In Flatland we understand that the basic method of understanding is touch. I'm of the opinion that if the flatlanders evolved differently, they could theoretically perceive the way the linelanders do, however they just don't. Perhaps the addition of a new dimension is a problem here. Sight in Flatland is also learnable, but very hard. In my opinion, Abbot added these differences purposely, but I'll get to that in a minute. Level three has poor sight, excellent touch, and poor/no hearing (as a means of percieving the world around you).

Finally we have spaceland. Our own world, where we perceive primarily by sight and need a completely different method to get around in the event of blindness. So in my levelling system, we as humans don't often get around by hearing or touch, and have excellent sight.

I think this could be graphed as a curve if you really wanted to, but I think Abbot was possibly trying to reflect the changing of dimensions and how aspects of the next dimension are seen in the previous. This is a concept seen in mathematics after all, so tying a tool of flatland's classism (not teaching lower classes the skill of sight recognition) into this mathematical concept is rather elegant if you ask me. It's exactly the point of the book, to combine mathematics with social commentary, and I like that.
