Meme: Two panels. Left panel is an Uno card that reads, "Understand situational context or draw 25." The right panel is labelled *Me* and has a drawing of the number 25 with the pencil placed underneath.
caption: I don’t struggle with autism. I’m actually very good at it.
Image: Lisa Simpson giving a presentation with a determined disposition. Caption on the screen: The "double-empathy problem" is misnamed because it is not a problem. It is a theory that explains why we observe limited empathy between autistic and non-autistic individuals. Not only is it not a problem, it is a solution because it helps us understand why things are the way they are. Stop calling it a problem. It is now the "interneurotype empathy divide"...or something. Idk, but it is not a problem.
Probably why sometimes it takes me a while to recognize people. Image: 2 panels. * 1st: Someone holding up two cards, one is a picture of Michael Keaton and the other of Bruce Willis. The caption reads, "Corporate needs to you find the differences between this person and this person." * 2nd: Pam from the office labelled as *Me* saying, "They're the same person." Edit: Gemini believes that they're 2 different people.
