>>11601832I think most top entertainers and athletes have to be. It's just that their autism doesn't make them obsessed with anime and scream out the n-word while they hit themselves over the head after thinking a bad thought. For them it manifests by being obsessed with being the best and staying fit etc.
I was recently at a friend's birthday party and her bf is a musician and did a whole show for her of parodies and autistic songs and I spent the whole time thinking, damn this nigga is autistic but he's putting it to such a good use that everyone loves him. Meanwhile my autism just means I can't look people in the eyes and mumble to myself rather than speak properly. Life is not fair
