In my opinion, you are not at all paraphrasing. Your reply feels condescending. You should think about what the problem is if someone says “people are cool” and this is your response. It’s not worth it to me to engage any further.

The “cool type of autism” is a really weird thing to say.

The thread you’re referencing was wild and I made a very deliberate decision not to comment at all -_-

I rarely engage on social media as long term it’s overwhelming for me but I do read and appreciate your work! Thank you for everything you do for the community by putting it out there.

It isn’t just gifted kid syndrome but yes, I think all the kids with gifted kid syndrome are neurodivergent. See also the debate over the Highly Sensitive Person which is just being autistic. When you’re ready for more, check out @fergus.oolong.co.uk @autisticrealms.bsky.social @stimpunks.org

I love your work!

This thread made me cry. Thank you for sharing. Hope Paul is resting easy

“People outside neurodivergent communities discover body doubling”

*flails around*

This piece is particularly meaningful to me right now as an autistic adult with an autistic child. I’ve seen your work before and just want to thank you for being such a good dad and advocate for us all.

Just wanted to say I love your deck. I’d be purchasing if I could right now; it has to be maybe in the future for me. It’s really lovely

What’s really wild is that you could actually do something to fight to have winter

It’s actually the winter part of it that’s in danger

Yeah I think they’re more like a child who’s very upset retorting “NO YOU ARE.” I do think they care, or they wouldn’t be trying so elaborately to throw it back
