This is really autistic. Stop arguing semantics, this is not a linguistics forum.

Please don’t use autistic as an insult.

I do have an ASD diagnosis so that part was at least factual.

Brave of you to admit. This community needs to come clean on this, we have so many outspoken, autistic individuals here whose input morphs others' views on what is normal and socially acceptable.

Shrug, honestly I see it as a strength and weakness. Different, not less. Therefore nothing to be ashamed of. In my work, we (employer, co-workers, myself) reap the benefits of my ASD, while we work around the weaknesses.
The point that we are all governing in one way or another, like Greek Gods, still stands.

I'm autistic, and I use the word factually. I know what I'm talking about.
That depends on the definition being used [1]. IMO, using this definition of governing [2], governing is taking responsibility, we do it all the time, and it is tough at times.
An example of governing is deciding when to change your baby's diaper. You take responsibility to put in the time and effort (which boils down to money) to keep the baby healthy, proper, and happy.
