Greetings all you amazing anons,
I wanted to thank you all for the past many months as I lurked and learned. Even had a few of my finds listed as notables…I was honored. I have a son who is dx as "Autistic". Until I found this board I never even knew that an "Autist" was one with a special skill set, immune to bullshit, sees things for what they are. My son who does have what is considered a developmental delay is high-functioning, he is kind, respectable and loving. He struggles greatly with social interaction but always tries to do the right thing. He is never influenced by mainstream crap, he truly follows the beat of his own drum. He has some amazing focus that I have seen many of you here display. I have been challenging him for awhile, he never forgets a face or a name, a time or a place. He is good with numbers and anything that requires repetition. I would like to think that maybe someday when he is grown, his gifts may lead him somewhere like here, researching unaffected by anything he hears or sees but must prove to himself what something means, an endless search for truth.
Whoever you anons are, you are m heroes and you gave this Mom some hope an vision for her son who she has cared for and hoped that something would blossom in him, now I know what his gifts are, even if regular (normies) don't get it, I know understand.
My humble gratitude for all of your digging, memeing and research.
Carry on Godspeed and WWG1WGA
