Parallel Universe
When said some people live in parallel universe, well what does that mean if you have ASD?
I'm still confused after watching how Trump learner about illegal aliens act, and tariffs. But original authors of tariffs meant this to counteract dicey people or just lacked real IQ to trade better?
I lacked ability to be underhanded, to know how to knock my competitors down, I honestly thought in my 'dumb' mindset that others were working on their honest projects, too.
I think I only started to begin to understand life at about 30 years, all very confusing.
Maybe I'm just not understanding what parallel universe is!! !
So on diagnostic criteria of spectrum is understanding of capacity to lie, or conclude like Trump, Mel Gibson and Elon that half lie is best because may be believable which is different from projecting where accuse others of what you do.
Pardon, this is all to confusing for me, even to this day.
So watching my friends feed dogs, and have to watch as eat one another's food, and I'm realising that aside from neglecting to sometimes eat, I simply don't relate to the animal kingdom, I mean at all.
In another life...
In another universe...
In another timeline... More or less the same principle.
In another world, in another reality.
Sort of like that.
Certain changes from a certain period of the past, significantly influencing the future outcomes and the events that happens.
Those stuff are 'factors' that influences outcomes. Some are controllable, but a lot of it are not.
Whether where the world was placed where with tweeks to the laws of physics, to what socks you've worn into during your 9th grade that one Friday...
Thought plenty about it.
It doesn't have to be rocket science complicated.
One doesn't need to be ultra intelligent, only mentally flexible enough to come up with such notion. But not everyone have the foundation to not their minds get blown too easily; that's not really intelligence, just knowing.
As for "having ASD" and "living in a parallel universe"; it can mean few things.
One can be the theorical physics of this world's current existence; that there is an entire world where it occupies the same spaces as we all do, just currently unperceivable to most of us.
It can go to the realms of spirituality and religion, or conspiracies about aliens, ghosts, and non-human intelligent entities...
Can be all about this reality's glitches or some trip gone bad.
Another is this political, socioeconomic and geological realities comparing onto each other.
Paralleling that this human lives under X regime, while this set of people are complying under Y religion. It implies privilege, discrimination, certain social issues.
Kinda like the common between genders; men do not have to worry about the dangers of the streets the same way women do, or that this country has less life expectancy because of whatever factors unlike it's neighbors or whatever.
In autism, it mean living very different lives and reality compared to allistics and neurotypicals alike.
In one reality, they don't belong. In another reality, they do. No different from comparisons between the able bodied from those who aren't.
But this is less about theorical physics and more about the social dynamics thingy.
I'm more interested in the former.
Another are series of what-ifs, which is can be a combination of both or a variation of the latter's social comparisons thingy.
Which can raise certain questions in one's existence, their choices and outlook, etc.
Whether it's a notion around freewill, luck, control...
And different worlds where different decisions happen may exists parallel in our reality.
Kinda like this; in this world, a guy won the lottery. But in another world and many others, the same guy did not won the lottery. And those worlds will split exponentially.
Many autistics who plays with such ideas thinks of a world where they're not autistic.
Or if the world is a safer place for us instead. Or if we are that defines the neurotypical majority.
Or if the condition and label never exists.
Etc.

Fiction has long borrowed an idea of "another world" from myth, legend and religion. Heaven, Hell, Olympus, and Valhalla are all "alternative universes" different from the familiar material realm.
The following definitions relate to a universe's "timeline" or universal history.
Divergent: Assumes each universe originated in the Big Bang, but each branched off into its own "timeline" due to anything from a quantum fluctuation to a universal event. Universes may re-converge later when conditions revert to their original states.
Parallel: Assumes a different "Big Bang" for each universe, wherein events and conditions are similar, but not quite the same -- even physical laws may differ.
When someone says something so much different than you would, it is common to consider that the other person is so much different that some ask, "What color is the sky in your world?"
It is not so much a suggestion that one actually lives on a different world, but a sort of metaphorical description of the observation of a significant difference.
For example, if you were sitting on a bench in a park watching children play and the person sitting next to you said, "I bet they would taste good". It might make you think he was a cannibal. It is this sort of unexpected encounter that prompts such comments.
Thanks everyone, the best versions I've heard in a long time. Makes me feel awe to find some creativity to talk too.
Saw Elon musk accused of being on drugs, he tweets his ssid don't work. To say this on shallow note regarding managing ones professional career, maintaining my autistic privacy and my private life. Not really parallel universe but for musk this could be his values of money hoarding in his non-parallel state. How can someone so rich be so daft as to discuss drug use or even autistic difficulties growing up with strangers and public. I at least discuss my PTSD anonymously since I've noted in life people think you're dysfunctional. But mostly I love my freedom, being nobody it gives me the hiding space I prefer.

The idea of parallel universes is strictly a conjecture in physics that is of little use or importance to anyone but theoretical physicists. If more than one universe exists, there is no way to even detect the existence of other universes. If there was a connection between them, then they would be part of the same universe, not parallel universes.
When used outside of physics, it is little more than someone who hears a concept that they do not understand and so they create their own nonsensical explanations of the concept.
In other words, use it to mean whatever you wish it to mean -- it cannot possibly matter.

Is this your poem, its really good.
I think parallel universe is spiritual realm we cannot see, it's what's above us whilst we live in this world...perhaps ghosts do exist, they too are in parallel universe.
I'm not trying to be mast to Mr. Musk, I've never promoted substance abuse on autism forums, I've even given advice on conversations to being about weather, current events, making appearance, being professional. He made all his own statements himself.
SMiLes, THere is A 'Spiritual Realm'
Within Us More Attuned to the Right
Hemisphere of Our Minds That Perhaps
'The NonVerbal Child'
'Sees' More Than the
'Verbal Ones'...
SMiLes, i Can't Really
'Say' i 'Own' my Poems; They
Come From Deep Within, WHeRE
The Feeling, The Sense of ReaLiTY Now Is
Truly DiViNE;
What's Left Over
in Words Are Only
Fumes of the Great
Beyond; The Flame That
Continues to Torch and Bonfire
Within; Just Bliss, Just Heaven For Real
for
me
at
least...
Hehe, i Was Basically
Trapped in A "Left Hemisphere"
Way of Grasping, Controlling, And
Materially Reducing Existence
in Decades of A Desert
Far Smaller than What
The 'Eyes' of
A Child
Deep
Within Sees
Non-Verbally Before Age 4...
Understanding That Many of the
Metaphors of Ancient So-Called
Sacred And Holy Texts Are Indeed
Vehicles and Vessels With Just Hints
of the Essence
of the
Depth
of the
Story Far
Beyond Words Within...
An Open Mind, Body, And
Soul Whole; Integral With the
Rest of Existence Will Surely Take
Us Farther
in View than
Materially
Reducing the
World to Only
What Organs of
Eyes and Ears 'See' And Hear' Alone...
Limitless, it is to Explore Our Worlds ThiS WaY
Far Beyond Any
Word as Small
As 'Infinity;'
Simply Beyond
All Empirically Measurable Observations
Reduced Enough For All to See Clearly
Yet Always Existing More For Us to Explore Now...
SMiLes, For More 'Left Hemisphere Restricted Folks,'
These Words May Only Be "Word Salad" to Them as
The Left Hemisphere of the Mind Has Great
Difficulty Understanding Metaphor Indeed;
However, For a More 'Literal Approach,'
Translated By Iain McGilchrist, i Highly
Recommend His Decade of Research
On How Our Left Hemisphere and
Right Hemisphere of Mind Processes
The World So Much Differently Now;
He Wrote A 1500 Page Book on This
As A Highly Respected Scholar, Named
"The Matter With Things," Yet He Offers
A Summary of the Book of Research on His
Youtube Channel in 29 Volumes With No Commercial
Interruptions
All For Free;
It's Fascinating,
Through and Through;
And While One May Come to
Understand the Essence of This
With No Formal Training At All;
He Provides a Noble Effort to Help Folks
Who Are More Left Hemisphere Restricted to
"Break Through
to The Other Side;"
Hehe, As 'Noted'
by 'Jim Morrison' too...
Bands Of 'Those Days' Needed
'Psychedelic Drugs' To 'Break Through;'
i'm Just
A Natural,
Playing a Song
Naked Enough Whole
Complete; Same Way i Dance Free
iN FLow
ThiS Way
With SMiLes;
Hehe, Indeed in ThiS WaY,
THere Exists Parallel
UniVerses in Our Own Heads;
Left and Right Hemispheres Indeed,
At Best Finely Tuning, Integrating, And
Connecting Mind, Body, Soul Whole
With SMiLes
Balancing All
iN LoVE iN Peace;
Of Course, Just in mY View..

It is often said that if someone could travel back in time that they would enter a parallel universe. This would avoid all the paradoxes associated with backwards time travel.

Maybe, but "often said" doesn't make it true, no matter how often it might be said.
Lots of luck trying to travel backwards in time. We are strictly stuck traveling forward.

Well, yes, time travel to the past is not presently possible and it likely won't be for the next thousands of years if ever.
