Autism doesn't run in my family. With the possible exception of my great grandfather who was an eccentric inventor.

He was definitely bipolar. What they called manic depressive back then. Aspergers is also a possibility but of course it wasn't diagnosed back then. I bear a fairly close resemblance to him. Maybe I'm a reincarnation.

Or just got the lion share of his active genes.

I think autism pride is a good thing. I'm proud of my autism. I have a very active imagination and artistic hand. I have a unique, pea flavoured way of looking at the world, with my love for pea-like characters. I'm not afraid to let the world see my differences from the foods that I eat to what I wear on my head.

I'm sick of pity being thrown around like confetti.
