Haha, yes. The cat analogy was created intentionally to demonstrate that the Copenhagen Interpretation was ludicrous. Media, however, just... ran with it because it sounded cool.
It's a good sign that you found it annoying. Erwin Schrödinger would be proud.
As for autistic, the resources in the sidebar may help you discover more.
Cool! I knew I wasn't crazy! What do you think of the RAADS-R test? That's the one I've taken and I got a score of 156 but I don't quite trust tests as I can generally tell which way a question will sway the result and so I start doubting the validity of my answers.
I saw one of Yo Samdy Sam's (https://youtube.com/@YoSamdySam) videos where she went through either that test or an equivalent one. She said thinking too hard about the questions felt a bit like a symptom by itself. :)
You could also get a family member or close friend to take the test and answer "as" you. My guess is it's going to be an equivalent score.
Your score indicates it's worth checking up if you feel it is useful!
Alright, I'm looking at going back to counsellor meetings and apparently my new one has some experience with autism so that should be nice!
