When we start saying that things are what they aren't and aren't what they are, chaos ensues.

Has such a thing ever happened?

As you might have heard, the adult state of those with autism is often centered around their education and socialization early on in life - the failure to do so is what results in true dysfunction, not having autism. Build systems that respond to people's needs and you reduce dysfunction.

Its honestly really annoying that a massive majority of resources for those with autism is geared to children.  I was diagnosed as an adult, so its a little too late for that to help me.

Not trying to be a dick, but thinking differently in a way that impairs normal activity is pretty much the dictionary definition of dysfunction.

Think of it this way: in a heteronormative society being gay impairs normal activity, used to be considered a disorder, and there's a history of 'treating' it. Similar with being left-handed.
One needs to ask whether the problem is with the individual or with the society.


Anyway, did y'all know that one of the leading researchers into autism is Borat's cousin? True story.

I looked up Borat and found a movie
I doubt this is the correct Borat, can you help point me in the right direction to find the researcher?

Thank you

You joke, but there literally was a person selling "bleach cures" and getting people to poison their children that way. Was that this year?

That was indeed this year, and they're still going strong! It's also an entire organization calling itself a church, not just some dude. They've got a presentation date set for New York. WHO has been trying to advise people to not attend.

I'd link the newest Oglaf for being related (and actually work safe), but the site itself isn't, so I'll err on the side of safety. It's the Oglaf for the week of September 8. I'll assume you all have internet, because you're here.

I worry that at some point someone's going to tell these lunatics that chugging bleach really triggers the libcucks because it makes you whiter inside.

This nearly killed me.

That is not a problem, that's a solution.

(Maybe they won’t be as corrupt as humans?)

That'd be the problem. Not being as corrupt as humans, it'd quickly establish that the best way to govern humanity is to exterminate us.

Eh, at least it'd be a more egalitarian way of killing us off. I'd like to see all of the options before I decide.

It's in fact the correct Borat, as you might have already ascertained from the wiki link.

I looked on the twitter feed and someone posted the following image

Speaking for myself, I happen to check Oglaf religiously. Instead of church, Oglaf updates are my Sunday.

I connect to the internet solely through prayer while chugging bleach. Comcast is pissed at my one secret trick.

[Frumple]

If you're still alive enough to pray you're not chugging the bleach hard enough. I don't believe you.

Did you try turning God off and back on again?

Wait, halt the politics, this is important  you youngsters don't know what Borat is? It only released like five years ago at most!
