Today is #AutisticPride day and the kid woke up with grief about not being normal. So I reminded him that normal is what a group of industrial psychologists thought would make the ideal factory worker.
I reminded him that if autistic people were valued for who we essentially are, the word neurotypical would not exist, it would be replaced with a word that suitably describes a difference in process and functioning. #AutisticPride

We worked together, he was a silver fox and I was twenty and engaged. He told me one day that he had a great life only to discover that God's joke on him was being born twenty years too early to marry me.
He paid for my coffee every month and I gave him secretary service as the receptionist. He administered my personality test and said I should be running the place (luxury car dealer). He got me box seats to Sting and I pray that God still blesses him today.
