Future Here Now: is neurodivergence the Fusion Era power source?

The big idea

NOTE: Today’s edition is only going to paid members, for an unusual reason.

Normally, I send Big Ideas to all of my subscribers, either with or without a paywall partway through — I am a writer, after all. But this is one of those topics where I really need some trustworthy feedback before I take it anywhere near the public.

I have learned a huge amount about various different kinds of neurodivergences, but neither I nor any of my family fits under that umbrella. Which means that there’s de facto a lot that I cannot understand. Combine that with the incredible array of experiences that fall under that umbrella, and the fact that I am reeeely trying not to write War and Peace every damn week here, and there’s a lot of nuance that I have to be missing. Sometimes not exploring every nuance is OK, and sometimes that means that you end up lumping things together in a way that hurts. And I really, really don’t want that.

So, my friends, I’d be especially grateful for your feedback …
