Doesn’t understand or doesn’t care???

Ditto.

In Canada we call that Tim Hortons

My son was diagnosed before he even turned 3 and his younger sister was being assessed, both of them are non-verbal. What I was learning about it put so many things from my entire childhood and youth in perspective and everything finally made sense, so I consulted and sure enough was diagnosed myself. My parents refused to accept it, they said I’m making excuses to not act “normally” and have cut all contact. I made my peace with that and am grateful about it, I no longer have to tolerate toxic people demeaning me for who I am, and my children sure don’t deserve that.

Don’t try to connect from where you are. Reach him where he is. Learn his language, and learn to think like him, and don’t force it. Remember that it is as hard for him to connect with others as it is for you to connect with him, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to or care.

Jokes likes that are soda-pressing.

So you’re saying if my parents had let me play video games, my childhood traumas would have been easier to deal with. Those f%*&ers…

With great fandom comes great responsibility.

Today is a good day for my childhood to die.

DANG! I like that one, i’ll put money on that next time!

WOA! awesome reference, took me longer than I care to confess to get it!!!

Season 4, deep cut! Sensing we’re both from the same generation…

I did not know what that is until you made me look it up. Which I now regret, I must say.

This, and then this again some more.

Because this needs to be done 1000% right, there is no margin for error, everything has to be done in an iron clad manner that cannot be dismantled by half-assing it. Indicting a former president is a first in the history of this country, and this former president is nothing short of a cult leader with millions of unshakable followers, many of whom are armed to the teeth and ready to burn this country to the ground for him. So this has to be done very friggin carefully.

I understand what you say and agree, however there is a point to be made about what the definition of stupid should be. Due to proximity, I will take myself as an example. I’m incredibly absent minded and pay little attention because I have too much on my mind and too little rest to deal with it all, so I focus on what I can while the rest often gets neglected. Many people then view my behavior as stupidity and I do not care about their opinions enough to correct their perception. Although even if I did it might not change anything. So go ahead and think what you will of me, unless they have anything helpful to say I won’t pay attention. I’m that kinda stupid.

Soylent Green.

Alan Rickman was universally known as the kindest, most generous and gentle soul. Yet he kick-started his movie career by playing one of the most memorable villains.

Kirk striking the “I can’t see them therefore they can’t see me” pose.
