'I was labelled 'rude' and 'argumentative'… then i found out i'm autistic'
"The ultimate success would be to pursue passions not according to the measurements of [what is regarded as 'normal'], but according to intrinsic autistic functionality. It would be to find your 'self' and to be accepting and respectful of it."
Sounds easy enough. It is refreshing to hear other voices echoing what I'm trying to do, though.
