  • Summary

  • Having to work to live sucks, least of all when how your brain is built doesn't support consistent productivity. In this episode I discuss how difficult I find entrepreneurship and employment, and how much I resent having to betray myself at work just to maintain basic human rights (food, shelter). I get into:


    • Entrepreneurship and how it triggers our fear of being perceived
    • Capitalism and the illusion of choice
    • Workplaces wanting your time and not your productivity
    • The unfairness and impossibility of monetizing a passion
    • Fundamental incongruities of autism and conventional offices
