I guess researchers are finally coming around to the idea that allowing groups of autistic people to socialize is a good idea instead of splitting everyone up and making them learn to act fake with each other the way neurotypicals do.
Useful a lot. But isolating & sad.
I have legit trauma from that kind of shit. Severe C-PTSD with RSD.
