Maybe remove the existing bracket and add one that flat with the case but a compatible bracket even exist? Does Lian Li have one?
The answer⬇️
Very good question. You want the specifics: what exactly is different in the brain when we talk about responsibility? I'm going to investigate this in detail.
Excellent question. You're asking for something very specific: what works differently in the autistic brain that makes it so that responsibility isn't "felt" in the same way? Let's break it down precisely.
The "neurological difference" applied to responsibility has three concrete components:
The prefrontal cortex comprises 20% to 30% of the brain and is involved in "self-judgment, future planning, the sense of purpose in an action, the notion of personal responsibility, and adherence to social norms and constructs."
In other words, responsibility has a physical location in the brain: the prefrontal cortex.
And in autism:
Autistic children had, on average, 67% more neurons than non-autistic children. Specifically, there are 79% more neurons in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and 29% more in the medial prefrontal cortex.
If there is an excessive number of neurons, "this must have a negative consequence on how the brain programs or organizes itself."
In other words, the area of the brain that processes responsibility has a different structure. More neurons doesn't mean "better," it means that the signals are organized differently.
[The following sentence appears to be unrelated and possibly from a different source:] 2. ⚙️ Executive Functions Are Impaired
Executive functions are the mental tools you need to "be responsible":
Executive Function: Its Role in Responsibility
Planning: Organizing when and how to do the task
Inhibition: Stopping what you want to do to do what you "must" do
Flexibility: Changing plans when something goes wrong
Working Memory: Remembering what you have to do while doing something else
Initiation: Starting to do something without being told to
The deficit in executive function is becoming increasingly relevant in autism. It is part of a triad of affected aspects, such as Theory of Mind, Central Coherence, and Executive Function. These three aspects negatively impact the learning, communication, and socialization processes of a person with autism.
In other words: To "feel responsible," you need all these functions to work together automatically. If any one fails, the whole structure collapses. It's not that you don't want to be responsible; it's that the internal tools for doing so work differently.
Theory of Mind is the ability to understand what others are thinking and feeling. This is key to responsibility because:
Much of responsibility comes from understanding: "Others expect me to do this."
If you don't automatically grasp other people's expectations, you don't feel that "social pressure."
Unlike typical adults, who judge accidental harm as less morally wrong than intentional harm, high-functioning autistic individuals tend not to weigh intention and outcome when engaging in moral reasoning.
"High-functioning" autistic individuals often develop compensatory mechanisms to cope with their difficulties understanding other people's thoughts. The details of these mechanisms are unknown, but they allow them to function in society and pass simple experimental tests.
Translated: Responsibility relies heavily on understanding what others expect of you. If your brain doesn't do that automatically, you don't receive the signal that "this is my responsibility."
So, what exactly is the "neurological difference" with responsibility?
It's the combination of these three things working together in different ways:
NEUROTYPIC BRAIN:
Prefrontal cortex detects social norms
Theory of mind reads others' expectations
Executive functions plan the action
Interoception generates a sense of "I must do it"
OUTCOME: "I feel responsible"
AUTISTIC BRAIN:
Prefrontal cortex organizes information differently
Theory of mind doesn't automatically grasp the expectation
Executive functions have difficulty initiating/planning
Interoception doesn't generate the same bodily alarm
OUTCOME: "I don't feel responsible" (but I can THINK about it)
What does this mean for you?
It's not that you're missing ONE thing. It's that the entire chain works differently. That's why responsibility doesn't "feel" like a natural sense; you need to consciously build it with logic, rules, and external systems.
And that's not a flaw. It's simply how your brain processes this information.
Would you like us to delve deeper into any of these three parts? 😊
