there are some autistic “traits” that people find really annoying but that are inherently kind

like overexplaining. a lot of autistic people didn’t have certain things explained to them because “everyone knows that.” so when an autistic person overexplains something it’s not because they think you’re stupid it’s because they know how it feels for someone to assume you know something you don’t and just not ever explain how or why. it’s a kindness. autistic people aren’t annoying or stupid for this. they’re kind.

David Kilcullen, “Out of the Mountains: The Coming Age of the Urban Guerrilla,” 2013, pgs. 41-42:

There’s also a long-standing tradition in several academic disciplines that conceives of cities as systems: in particular, as biological systems, ecosystems, or even single organisms. Central to this approach is the idea of urban metabolism, adapted from the concept of metabolism in biology– the “physiological processes within living things that provide the energy and nutrients required by an organism.” Metabolic processes transform inputs such as sunlight, food, water, and air into energy, biomass, and waste products. Urban historians and ecologists have long applied the notion of urban metabolism to understand the environmental history of cities…

The idea goes back at least as far as Karl Marx, who wrote in the 1840s about the “metabolic rift” created by urbanization, which… accelerated dramatically during the industrial revolution. Marx, of course, was writing in Europe at the end of the first hundred years of the industrial revolution, and talking about cities that had experienced a century of rapid urbanization and population growth, producing many of the same stresses, strains, and systemic breakdowns we’re discussing here. In modern times, the idea of urban metabolism was repopularized by Abel Wolman’s 1965 article “The Metabolism of Cities,” and his notion that researchers can understand a city as a system by looking at its metabolic flows, via what is known as material flow analysis, has since become a standard academic approach. It’s usually applied to the ecological sustainability of cities (that is, the way cities use and transform inputs of water, carbon, air, food, and fuel, then deal with the resulting waste products). The idea is that urban systems need enough carrying capacity to absorb, process, and deal with inputs and to process (metabolize) waste products, otherwise toxicity develops in the system and it begins to break down.
