i know people who literally have a special interest in barney. the fuckin’ purple dinosaur. like you can’t operate in an autistic space if you’re unable to get on with people who don’t share a show with you, so the alternative is generally learning to appreciate others enjoying shit you don’t
Too bad, not gonna throw the many autistics that got shit for “age inappropriate” interests under the bus so people can make bad criticisms of something they find annoying.
