Basically its forcing yourself to do normal things.
The idea behind the game is to illustrate that adhering to norms is energy draining, while also letting yourself be yourself results in negative outcomes.
I don't consider myself autistic, but the simulation seemed to me like the typical experience of a working adult. Most of us force ourselves through routines we need to adhere to but don't enjoy, or even hate. Most of us aren't really ourselves with work colleagues.
I still don't understand why having breakfast or changing the radio station decreases your masking, though.
