I’ve always felt an attraction/kinship to autism. When I was 7 years old, I saw a TV movie called “Son-Rise” and it was about a little boy who was spinning plates, would moan and rock and twiddle his fingers and sing to himself in his own grunting. and it stuck with me because the whole movie the parents and doctors were baffled, “we just want to understand him”. and i thought in the whole movie, “BUT I UNDERSTAND HIM”. and I did. I know why he spun the plates and it annoyed me that everybody else in the movie didn’t know.
