went to a birthday party and...
i will go to an art exhib with a pretty girl next week :blobcatcomfyuwu:
Oh snap..
guys, she's autistic. In the most literal sense, she's genuinely on the spectrum. A common friend of ours warned me. What do?

@pesekcuy it might be? I can't say I find autists attractive. They are often a liability.

@newt @pesekcuy
People on Fedi seem to have started perceiving "autistic" as just being deeply versed into some unusual topic, not as having genuine disorder, as if there are… say, shallow people and there are autists 😫

I'm not talking about you, lol. You, on the contrary, seem to get it right 😄

@m0xee @pesekcuy nah I call people autistic and retarded all the time, completely ignoring actual medical diagnoses.

@newt @pesekcuy
Ah, okay. So what's with the girl then, does she just have unusual hobbies and no actual disorder?🤔

@newt @pesekcuy
I didn't misread you then. That's what I am talking about: even though you use it as metaphor sometimes, you can still tell the difference, unlike a lot of others, who seem to believe that people who have niche interests, but do NOT have autism don't exist.

@m0xee @pesekcuy this girl in particular doesn't have niche interests. Unless you count cosplay as niche.

@newt @pesekcuy
Pretty niche TBH 😂
I sure have seen cosplayers IRL, but I don't know any personally.
