Don’t kink-shame me.

I laughed more at this than any time that I have ever seen a show by Chuck Lorre.

Cassie’s comment was also what alerted me to Ailes’s death!

I cried when I watched that initial episode. Legit, 100%. It was the first time that I saw a female character who is openly autistic (as in it is clearly stated during the course of the series as oppose to hints or discussions outside of the show) that is also shown as a sexual person.

High-five, (assumed) fellow adult-diagnosed autistic!

One of the key traits for identifying autism is empathy, specifically cognitive. That’s the ability to intuit a person’s emotional state from their tone of voice, facial expressions, and stance. Autistics generally lack this innate skill and occasionally are coerced into learning by identifying patterns or statistical

I feel awful for knowing this, but his mother had him tested to see if he was insane. I had to take a similar test to work at nuclear power plants within the United States, and the criteria did not include anything for diagnosing or identifying ASD.

No need to follow up on the content of your comment, but I did want to let you know that I genuinely appreciate when commenters clearly tag/identify sarcasm. I tend to be very literal, so cues like that are very helpful.

I know that this was intended to be a joke, but there are quite a number of people who are terrified of the so-called gay/queer agenda. They believe that queer people go out and actively recruit or try to change policies in order to enact change that is counter to G-d’s will.

A lot of people with ADD experience sensory overload, which is when the brain receives too much stimuli. I experience it myself, and it occasionally leads to meltdowns, head banging, self-harming stimming, and nonverbal episodes.

As someone who is developmentally disabled, I’m ready to destroy everything.

To follow up, Texas has been a huge topic of discussion within the developmentally disabled community. They decided some time ago that there is an optimal percentage of students who can benefit from special/assisted education programs. They then slashed the budget and then punished schools that exceeded this allowable

Trump is Anakin Skywalker. He’s brought balance to the Force, but not in the way that his supporters imagined.

I’ve had two separate groups of friends refer to me as Sheldon, and it’s because he’s the most visible face of Hollywood autism. Even though we’re considerably different, it’s the closest comparison that people who don’t know autistics can make.

In a commencement speech delivered to United States Coast Guard Academy graduates, the president spoke, of course, about himself, and how hard things are for him. “Look at the way I have been treated lately, especially by the media,” he complained. “No politician in history, and I say this with great surety, has been

It’s patronizing and it emphasizes how so many men can only relate to women if they have some sort of relationship.

He did, and it lasted for six seasons. It had strong conservative leanings in that it mocked PC culture, belittled liberals, and had Allen star as the head of a household dominated by adult women. There has been some brouhaha over its cancellation given that people feel that it’s because the liberal media was

This. He wasn’t being arrested for breaking the law; he was being arrested because the residents perceived him as a threat. The cop is very upfront about that — as well as the fact that they had been out there almost every day because Stephenson was “acting up.”
