Autism Acceptance Month: Autistic Headcanons

Bob’s Burgers official trailer

I actually hate that I can’t learn shit.

 I’ve been tested for everything from autism to ADHD, for every learning disability that exists and is out there, and I have none of them, none. I got tested, I’m cognitively above average in everything except for math, where I scored the exact average. I pick up patterns and gain info from context clues instinctively. There’s literally no reason for me to be unable to learn anything.

 I’m also 26 and can’t read an analogue clock. I know that when all the pointers are pointing to 12 then it’s 12, and if one pointer points at 12 and the other one points to a different hour, then it’s probably that hour, but other than that, it’s all white noise to me. I literally can’t learn valuable skills or information purely because they’re valuable. It’s IMPORTANT and USEFUL to know what time it is, and therefore I can’t learn it.

 There is literally no cognitive reason for me to be like this.

Day 2: It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

“There are three things I’ve learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin.” Today’s the 70th anniversary of the first Peanuts strip, so this seemed right.

Hey what was that noise whose outside

Need that heavy rain sound type of night

autism disphoria, where you're having such good fun at an event but when you see picture of yourself you were just :| the whole damn fucking time (as illustrated below)

So many dipshits always trying to summon angels or devils. Focus on summoning the gnomish folk. Get real.
