Gilmore Girls is popular in autistic circles because of Paris (the character). She is never specifically called autistic but, like Abed in Community, her character is a very accurate representation.

I am a "privileged whitevl guy" who married into a central American refugee family, and I can say there are a lot of people in developing countries that love human rights, but hate when they are applied to specific groups. Because if everyone has nothing, trying to help marginalized groups seems unfair to the majority who is also oppressed.
So if you want to fight femicide, or anti-LGBT discrimination, people not in that group often get angry because they want help too.
I obviously don't agree, but I understand the viewpoint given their life experiences. What I don't understand is when I meet Americans/1st world people who express the same sentiments. They need to go fuck themselves in the ass with a rusty spork and die of sepsis.
Only evil people and the ignorant are opposed to human rights.
I am half awake, and I read, "the horrors of falling for Linux rap".
Is that a genre?
One of my favorite albums of all time. My friends and family think I'm crazy. I used to use the man's vocal intros as track transitions on mix CDs in the 90's
The "I'm a dude, don't mount me bro" call is hilarious (Warning Chirp of the Boreal Toad Bufo Boreas Boreas)
I am split on this. I feel like my autism isn't a disability. Sometimes my autistic traits can be. Neurotypicals also have mental traits that can hold them back. Mine have names like executive function disorder, but neurotypicals can exhibit many of my traits (not all) and not be as stigmatized. So I'm of the opinion that autism itself isn't a disability, but that doesn't mean I don't have disabilities that stem from it.
