      Seriously tho, like reddit was autistic enough but now you gotta be even more niche enough to know about smaller better reddit.

        I blame it on the fact that autists will literally rip something apart if its making a weird noise. So a lot left reddit for being broken. Source I am autistic.

      Well, we do what we can, but there’s only so much acetaminophen (paracetamol for our British friends) you can give to pregnant women.

          And I, for one, think you deserve to know the truth about how N-Acetyl-p-benzoquinone imine (NAPQI) affected us when we were yet in the womb.

              Our bioscience friends have noted a correlation between pre-natal Tylenol (I don’t know where you’re from, so I don’t know the trade name that will be familiar to you) exposure, autism, and ADHD. It’s still controversial, but I’m of the opinion that the purveyors of the world’s most popular analgesic are muddying the waters, not unlike Big Tobacco did decades ago.

                Its Tylenol where I am, im from SoCal. Anyways correlation doesnt mean causation it could be any number of things, so until further research has been conducted such things must be assumed to be unknown. Also doubt it would include me, my autism is most certainly genetic. For some context I was diagnosed at three, it was the violence and cleverness that got me diagnosed as asperger.

          Well if there wasn’t an organism, there would be no autism. Now the rant: I still don’t get why people bully us, while their image of autism is heavily influenced by stereotypes and old research.

            It’s because inside jokes are a kind of social currency. As are arbitrary prohibitions on certain social behaviors, such as fucking swearing, goddamnit. Those in power use these contrived conventions to maintain power distance and repress you.

      Or grew up around conservatives and heard that shit being said unironically.

      I still hear people fondly reminisce about leaded gas. If you think I’m missing a joke, no. They will drive to airports to buy the leaded gas they sell there.
