Who said I didn't need them? The problem is people in the real world don't have /s markers and often aren't actually your friends and can listen actually mean you harm. Part of my neurodivergence leads to me being trusting of people when I really should not, (aka I'm gullible) and this sends me down the wrong path sometimes. Since I'm neurodivergent and have trouble with this, the way for me to get better at it, is to practice harder at things that others find easy, not for me to demand and expect the whole world change to suit my needs.
