I like how the autistic aren't allowed to simply have hobbies, everything has to have some infantalizing bullshit label about how inappropriately into it they are

I mean I’m an AuDHD-haver and I can tell you definitively that there is a difference between what I’d call a hobby of mine and what I’d call a hyperfixation/special interest, that being said, I don’t think most neurotypical people know where that line lies and now that autism is treated as like a cutesy quirky thing online they obviously throw those words around too much
