Autism

Assuming that’s you indeed, that is as in the picture of the man in the green hospital outfit, nice beard, and keep it up! :slight_smile:

For what it’s worth:

According to Artificial Intelligence:

Autism, or autism spectrum disorder (ASD), is a lifelong brain-based condition that affects how a person communicates, interacts with others, and experiences the world.

It is a spectrum, meaning support needs and abilities vary widely from person to person.

Common Signs and Symptoms

  • Social differences: Trouble with eye contact, reading facial expressions, or back-and-forth conversation.

  • Communication styles: Delayed speech, nonverbal communication, or very literal interpretation of language.

  • Routine and repetition: Strong preference for predictable daily habits and repetitive movements or focused interests.

  • Sensory processing: Over-sensitivity or under-sensitivity to lights, sounds, textures, or smells.

Causes and Facts

  • Genetics: Strongly linked to genetic factors and brain development differences.
  • No link to vaccines: Extensive scientific research proves vaccines do not cause autism.
  • Not a disease: It is a form of neurodivergence, meaning an individual’s brain simply works differently.

You can learn more detailed guidelines and support options through the World Health Organization or the National Health Service. [1, 2]

I know! I never told anyone, at one point only my mama knew and she told our neighbors who went insane!

I was so happy and peaceful not caring to disclose it, I even said “SURE I HAD 2 JBBBIES” for them to leave me alone, and then mama went and told the truth to this deranged lunatics

Oh its a scene in London from the film 28 days later

I was absolutely mesmerized by the desolated city scenes in this film! I am from Puerto Rico people never look like this, the film plot and settings were so intriguing to me.

I’m hooked on desolation scenes too, one of my favourite TV series is ‘Survivors’ (1975) in this scene poor Abby wakes up from a fever and finds everybody in her village dead of plague because they weren’t immune like she was-

Regarding Covid, I went down with it in its very early days before there were any jabs but recovered after feeling half-dead for about a week, so it would have been pointless to have the jab afterwards, but anyway i’d have never had the jab anyway because i hate all jabs..:slight_smile:

And regarding autism, a woman once posted in a discussion forum that her young autistic son was driving her round the bend because he was going through a ‘Bob the Builder’ phase and kept wanting her to buy him BTB book and toys, so i said to her- “Oh stop nagging him and just buy them”, and she became sheepish and didn’t know what to say because it made her see sense..:slight_smile:

Poor Abby, this is an excellent suggestion. It’s the type of atmosphere that sets the tone, Now I’m going to search for that series to watch it soon!

Yes, in my opinion Survivors (1975) is one of the best post-apoc series ever made because it’s just a small group of ordinary people trying to survive without a stupid zombie, vampire or alien in sight..:slight_smile:

In this clip a medic urges Jenny to get out of plague-ravaged London-

Did you stop to ask whether this woman was in a financial position to “just buy them”

If she couldn’t afford toys for her autistic son she must have been hopeless at managing her money..:slight_smile:
