I mean, at least they’re honest? Very creepy though!
Really hard to imagine this working.
it’s code. the soulmate will look at that block of text and will only see ‘i’m autistic, too’
Especially the last paragraph?? About the minors… You did your research bro, but wtf.
What’s the fine for necrophilia in this part of Tamriel?
Really hard to imagine this working
That’s the joke
Actually hilarious if its a joke, the details of the text.
I’m gonna be optimistic and say it’s a gag. If not… holy shit.
People with Aspergers usually have this kind of pained sense of humor, yes.
Because, eh, trying to communicate more “normally” leads to some people exhausting you by making you imitate more and more, thinking that’s you getting used to them, until you can’t bear that, and to other people hating you due to something being off and trying to expose you.
So opening up this way initially feels like a way to alleviate both.
Especially with relationships. Especially since everyone has preferences and tastes too, just other ways of expressing them. If you can’t play the game they consider subtle, you can’t. Honesty sometimes works, pained humor too, pretense - unsustainable.
I hope so too
I also saw it as a joke… Now, whether or not wearing a joke shirt like that is acceptable? I’m not so sure lmao It’s just EXTREMELY poor taste.
But if it isn’t a joke… 😳
So the blondes are either 17 or 6,402,373,705,728,000. Seems oddly specific
I wanted to make the same joke! Nice that you noticed it too lol
I kinda feel like this is a sincere attempt to improve his chances, and while yes I see the creepiness, I feel a bit sad for him also.
Willing to bet a makeover would help him more than anything he puts on a shirt, and no one in his life to tell him that.
What’d help them most would be adjusting who they’re interested in. It’s easiest to click with someone of a similar age group with a similar amount of relationship experience. Neurodivs also tend to click best with other neurodivs. It’s easiest to meet through a shared hobby or interest- partner and I are both neurodiv and met by nerding out over our respective research projects, at a semi quiet bday event.
Regardless, if he had someone in his life to guide him in any way, I can bet that’s not the approach he’d be taking. This kid landed here by neglect, I guarantee it.
All we can see is his haircut (he’s lined up fine), his glasses (nothing obvious) and his shirt (odd). I think it’s a jump to say a make over will do this man more good than not wearing a shirt that says “I want to have sex with the youngest woman I legally can.” Which comes off like minimum wage thinking, sort of how they’d pay you less if it were legal.
I know it’s not the point, but this toeing of the age line is just as gross as going after minors imo. We need to respect the nuances of human relationships rather than reducing it to a number.
Mind you I get that this guy identifies as having aspergers, so nuance is not his fortee, but still.
Definitely gross but did you catch the bit about sex trafficking? Like, I know this is a low bar, but at least it’s a bar.
If he’s neuro divergent he gets a pass but his family really need to help with a better choice of shirt.
Pedos don’t get a pass, neurodivergent or otherwise. I’m neurodivergent and this shit is gross and predatory. The only thing autism has to do with this is him thinking it’s a good idea to display his problematic proclivities on a t-shirt. At least girls now know to keep their distance, assuming this isn’t fake
This reminds me of a kid with a similar diagnosis I had when I first started teaching. He just turned 18 and came in that day “with his adult voice.” Full octave lower than usual, and wanted everyone to know it was because he just turned 18 - lasted until about lunch time. Hopefully this is a joke shirt, but I can definitely say there are people like this out there.
It’s called autism, And Lemmy will both defend autistic people and roast them/call them names depending on the thread
It’s almost like lemmy isn’t a monolith with homogenous opinions! Weird.
Yet here you are
Tl;Dr dudes into hebaphilia and is advertising to try to have sex with “the youngest female possible” for his “first time.”
To wit, good luck I guess? Technically not illegal but still gross homie.
At least hes presenting all the red flags right up front.
it’s actually on his back
Thanks dad.
Without guessing I know 100% who he voted for, what his opinion on Russia/ Ukraine, Israel/ Palestine, who he follows on social media and podcasts he listens to, and that he likes his tacos with no spice and his streak fully cooked and covered in ketchup.
My brother bought a shirt that simply says “Crab Rangoon” in the font the band Slayer uses. That’s the correct way to share your autism in shirt format.
That’s a fucking hilarious shirt though.
No lie I don’t even like crab rangoon, and I kinda want it lmao. And Slayer is cool and all but I don’t own or want a Slayer shirt, Crab Rangoon otoh…
I agree whist reading in a Napalm Death shirt
Plot twist. He has a face like brad pit and was sick of it beingbthe first thing anyone says when they talk to him.
The ability of some people to ironically self-label will always astound me.
Plot twist he’s under cover FBI honeytrapping successors for Marjorie and Lauren
Dude has Peter Griffin vibes…
Some of these sentences might trigger an MK Ultra agent if read aloud.
