Here's a carton of the stuff circa 1935. It was also said to protect you from hangovers.

Pretty sure I've seen your posts before. I'm not diagnosed, but two of my kids are and there are signs. The best part is not giving a fuck about social norms. The worst part is avoiding social stigma while having difficulty recognizing social norms. I think the key part is realizing that they don't want to be like you and you don't want to be like them, but finding some way to meet in the middle anyway so you can work together.

    Yeah, lemmy's been my full time job since I quit work and haven't been able to get a job. Sorry. Feel free to block me when you get tired.

    I think I have something called Broad Autism Phenotype or, delightfully, BAP, which is a mixed grab bag of traits without the fully diagnosable presentation officially sanctioned as autism.

    I find that a lot of autism does apply to me, but a lot of it also does not apply to me. But you'd be amazed at how critically disabling it is to value truth over loyalty, even absent any neuro-social deficits. Or how critically disabling it is to not want to pretend to like people when you don't (which is just a manifestation of valuing truth).... Or maybe you wouldn't be surprised at all.
