I hope you don't think I'm naïve -- or just plain ignorant -- but the most successful people I know have Asperger's. The creativity, the intelligence, the logical/cricical reasoning ability...I often see it as a gift. But, i'm not discounting the social struggles. I'm just saying, I'd KILL for the kind of careers my Aspergian friends have.
Apparently about 50% of employees at NASA have autism.

Supposedly but I take what the 'professionals ' say with a pinch of salt. I was better before I started seeing them, no one had ever mentioned aspergers before. I think weed just rewired my brain

Greta Thunberg has Aspergers. She calls it a superpower.

Look at already established systems/social norms and just learn to be very good at them. Some people with it seem to be very good at it. Trying to make your own shit out of nothing is a pain if you don't have any experience.

Serious question: Is there any distinction between the usage of "He had evil spirits in him" and the marginally more nuanced "He was born with Asperger's"?
