My shrink disagrees. Anyway, that is a picture perfect snapshot of lemmy, “I’m a normal human but my normal quirks make me special. I have no exposure to people IRL and memes reinforce this belief. That’s SO autistic, LOLLOLOLOL!”
Any one symptom in isolation is often brushed off as simply eccentric. It’s the combination of dozens to thousands of these frictions, over a lifetime, that makes it a disorder.
Congratulations on being neurotypical, though; happy for you.

Is SETI gone?

Everyone does this!
I’m the only person who does this!
