Caption: I still don't know why part of autistic/adhd diagnosis isn't putting you in a room with someone already diagnosed and seeing how quickly you bond.

Drag knows lots of people with autism who are absolute assholes and drag doesn't get along with them at all. So this test wouldn't work reliably.

Ever seen Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs? Flint Lockwood and his dad both have big time autism, and precisely opposite mannerisms and special interests. They don't understand each other at all and it takes a lot of effort for them to get along.

Drag, may i ask you why you refer to drag in such a way? What would in most cases refered to as "third-person"? I'm genuinely curious.

Drag uses person-independent drag/dragself pronouns. They're inflected and conjugated the same way in first, second, and third person. They reflect drag's identity as a dragon rider.

Ok, i can dig that. So which one is your favorite dragon?

Drag's favourite dragon is @HonouraryDragon@lemmy.nz. We're dating. Drag also likes Saphira and Mushu, and thinks Smaug is hot. Drag doesn't like Toothless because he abandoned his bro.

I like you, drag. Don't let anyone give you shit.

Drag is not from Pern by chance? Or have family there maybe?

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 1 points 2 weeks ago

No, drag knows nothing about Pern but that it has dragon riders.
