but if any of us got tested it would be borderline at best.

Ironically, I thought this way about myself for a long time. When I got evaluated as an adult, I got high scores for most things. Turns out, what I thought was borderline, was not borderline at all, I am just good at masking, for my own detriment. I am not saying it is the same for anyone else, who knows, but sometimes people perceive themselves very differently, than mental health professionals do - in all directions.

It is a self-serving circle. People assign certain behaviors to Romani, refusing to take them as a part of the society. Then the Romani will act that way, since it is expected anyway, and there is barely chances to do otherwise. And the cycle has continued for a long time, creating a culture that is not only shunned by the society, but also sees itself not being a part of the society, so their actions reflect on that. Stopping the cycle is incredibly difficult, as the racism is ingraved deep. That does not mean, that it should not be the goal, though.

I completely agree. I had to “downgrade” to Windows 10 (I cannot have linux on that computer, sadly), because 11 had just so many simple bugs, that affected everyday use very badly. Everything works so much faster with 10, the taskbar shows all programs, no file pictures change sizes like a disco light, and I can even read the file names on the desktop. I have used most of the consumer Windows versions, and never before have I had such a broken interface, that just kept breaking in different ways every update. And these were not “early issues”, this was last year.

Except if you are autistic, and never quit your special interests :)

That is unacceptable behavior, and I am quite sure many neurotypicals would also agree, even though it definitely depends on the cultural context as well. At least here it is just extremely rude to bring more quests without asking the host first, or at least telling them beforehand, unless you specifically have that type of relationship, or the invite was clearly open. That is like intentionally trying to embarass you in front of their other friends, as you might not have enough food, or drink, or other things prepared. That person would not be my friend afterwards.
