I thought of an autism meme but I can't draw... frame 1: someone in a wheelchair is working at a workbench frame 2: it's revealed that they've built an exo-suit that allows them to walk frame 3: they go out in public to proudly show off their fancy new exosuit frame 4: people question why they need an exosuit because they can clearly walk with it...
Looking back, I've identified a couple of ND folks from my school days. No. 1 - we randomly sat together on the bus on a school excursion/ field trip. He infodumped the whole trip on volcanoes and the geological history of the Australian alps. Fascinating 🌋🌋The best conversation I had in year 3! Fast forward to senior high school, had a lift to a party with no. 2. This time, infodump on cricket statistics - the game, not the animal. 🏏🦗 Strangely interesting..... even for someone not into team sports. A good infodump beats random gossip any day.💜
It was lovely meeting you in 3D. The kitties are behaving and are very settled and have been adventuring and playing lots today. Glad your travels are continuing to go well. I remember watching birds of a feather when i was young, 😆 goats would make a great addition to your home minagery, although they can be destructive if they get out of their enclosure. Great fun though. 😂
Great, now I wonder if the Autism Store sells or buys autism in bulk, if they can swap my military model for a civilian one or if they at least offer repairs and a filter change.
I wonder if I could swap my light sensitivity module for a sound sensitivity one. People are starting to understand that someone wearing earphones/earbuds in public may be sound sensitive; wearing sunglasses inside still just looks like I plan to rob someone… 😎
I’m partial to the newer DSM-V-TR 😉 (2022) I do find it odd that although we use the ICD-11 for assessment/diagnosis and medical coding in the US, we don’t officially recognize mental conditions that are not in the DSM, especially in regards to conditions like cPTSD that are acknowledged. I remember the sunscreen song. Thanks for the memory unlock. Happy travels!
Sounds like you and Quinn had fun 😀 These memes are wonderful. Yes, please make the excuse app. 🤣💜 Autistamatic has an excellent channel. Highly recommend!
Hahaha, we had an absolute blast! Really, really, lovely to catch up in person and spend some quality time. Excuse app - consider it on the list! :) Autistamatic channel is a fabulous channel, de-facto excellence in autism awareness education.
I hope you take this in excellent great spirit, but when I heard you say you met up with autistic Matic, all I could think of was a Wallace and Gromit episode, and I thought this is going to be excellent
Lmao there was a time where everyone in my class decided to wear the same clothes and I asked everything to my friend including what shoes to wear, I thought I needed to prepare everything perfectly didn't realised I was being autistic there. Kind of embarrassing moments in my life. 😂
I hear the elusive tea fairy has been busy while you're away soooo maybe there will be a turkey AND a goat waiting for you by the time you get home as well as some potentially radical home renovations 🤔😂 I love that you met up with Quinn on your travels and am looking forward to hearing more about it from him!
I dunno, I have some pretty cool autism, the kind where I’ve still managed, though feats of mental gymnastics and some sheer luck, to do stuff like get degrees and get married and have kids and buy homes all a couple times each and also work a bunch of jobs, including a couple full-time ones. Think I’ll keep my version at this point… 🤔🤷♀️👍
ADHD storytelling - good one :) - though, there should be smallprint adding: "it never ends, it continues in your head" during my childhood years at school, there were only 2 boys who would willingly, out of own volition, sit with me at the same bench during classes, one at primary school, who was bullied for being slow, and didn't know how to respond in kind eventhough he was big guy, second at college, he was mr popular, looking like a quaterback, definitely had ADHD, driving me crazy during classes, tapping his foot against my chair at a crazily high speed, until I got up and yelled at him (interrupting the teacher) "Stop that, how many times do I have to tell you it drives me crazy!!!", every class the same story, but... looks are deceiving in both cases (me and him) we shared the same hobby - roleplaying
Wow, what timing! I had uploaded my meme related to my autism like 5 hours before this video went up 😂 Guess you could add it in the next one? I could link it to you if you want!
In the olden days when I was a lad these were called cartoon drawings and when there were a number of frames they were called strip cartoons. A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme (Wikipedia). Calling a cartoon a meme is to attach too much importance to a fleeting notion that is soon passed over for the next cartoon etc whereas a meme is a cultural phenomenon that 'infects' a broad section of the population, think long hair for men in the 1960s. Another good example of a meme is the so-called Wetiko Virus which has 'infected' the corporate and political classes through the vector of neo-liberal capitalist economics. Keep on keeping on.🖖🐈⬛
Okay but just to clarify it to people who don´t know cats: the kittens are still with Hydra as they are not even 12 weeks old, right? Some give them away with 8 weeks, but that´s way too early! Please never do this! Mine had been been 8 weeks too (it was an unplanned pregnancy at a farm and they lied to me before that they are three months old but I took them anyways then when I saw how bad they had been treated there. Of cause none was vaxinated, they were full of flees and those other common tiny insects in the ears of uncared cats (Ohrmilben). Of cause I took them to the vet very next day. Poor tomcat suckled on his end of tail for weeks😥 He needed years to trust humans enough to enjoy cuddling, I think he was three yo before lying down on my lap first time. And sistercat is extremly clingy and talkative since day one. They really need to be with their mum and siblings that time until they would be left naturally. It´s worth it, please trust shelters and don´t buy younger kittens on ebay etc.😿
I cannot go because Dan Rather would not stop telling knock knock jokes. Having grown up with the nightly news every night, he was our second go to after Tom Brokaw.
I was diagnosed with adhd as a child but didn’t take any meds till now. Many people told me it doesn’t exist or something along the lines. My doctor told me if i got medicated earlier i would have a phd now
Cool to hear you are local (in the UK anyhow). Just in time for the lovely rain this week. I think I am still too busy focussing on myself and learning things to think about others, beyond my sister anyhow. Telling her she should go get tested for both would be... well, I doubt she would take that well.
4:04 was cackling. Loving the ND energy this channel brings. Those manuals are heavy btw. and some Dr.s don't like it when you don't quite fit in to one niche very clearly. I've said too much already.....
Mike, what are the local laws about how many animals you can have at a residence? I am sure that you and Nina are giving them all proper care and love. ❤ I'm just wondering where people fit all these animals. Do you live out in the country?

If someone draws it, send it to me.
That’s really good haha. Maybe I’ll draw it.

The autism fairy missed my house on my 18th birthday...so here I am an adult with autism. Danged fairy!
Pretty unreliable that fairy 🧚♀️. They missed me too! Here I am at 54, Autistic AF!
You can tell we don't use the same cameras. I've got legs in yours!
🤣 I was actually just going to bed and I laughed so hard that I think I woke up the neighbours...

Thanks, Mike. I'm so glad you namechecked Quinn/Autistamatic. His TH-cam channel is brilliant! x
Sensory cave did sound intriguing until you put it into the children's area perspective, now it just sounds like it's a petri dish of germs
There’s NEVER enough teabags in hotel rooms.
The other week a colleague and I went searching the hotel for earl grey.
Oh excellent. I've always needed an excuse generator. 👏👏
It was lovely to speak with you properly, Kylee! Thank you for being here! And, yes, an excuse generator is now on the list ;)
It was very aesthetically pleasing that you matched to your hotel room hahaha
I’m partial to the newer DSM-V-TR 😉 (2022)

I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up, which is fine. I just want to be and to do stuff.
mmmmmmood
You and Quinn together is so wholesome omg 😭 Love you both!
Please let there be goats and turkeys on this channel. We could see more of the chickens, too. Thanks for sharing the memes.
Chickens, I can do! And disco-chickens (peacocks!). Thank you for being here! 🧡
@@Autistic_AF All chickens accepted! 🦚
@@Autistic_AF Definitely more peacocks!
Ideally, goats in pajamas...
Lmao there was a time where everyone in my class decided to wear the same clothes and I asked everything to my friend including what shoes to wear, I thought I needed to prepare everything perfectly didn't realised I was being autistic there. Kind of embarrassing moments in my life. 😂
😂 hilarious! The pyjama wearing goat omg 😅 really cool to see Autistic creators connecting
I like "awe-tism"! Not because im awesome, but because im constantly reacting to things with awe. The word I usually use is "enchanted".
I hear the elusive tea fairy has been busy while you're away soooo maybe there will be a turkey AND a goat waiting for you by the time you get home as well as some potentially radical home renovations 🤔😂 I love that you met up with Quinn on your travels and am looking forward to hearing more about it from him!
@@stephaniealexandra5142 Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I'd go to the autism store to sell some of my autism I suppose...
"sir! would you like to buy some autism?"
I'd ask for an upgrade....
I dunno, I have some pretty cool autism, the kind where I’ve still managed, though feats of mental gymnastics and some sheer luck, to do stuff like get degrees and get married and have kids and buy homes all a couple times each and also work a bunch of jobs, including a couple full-time ones.

F. I'm going to be astronomy-ing tonight. Finally got some of my gear back I've been needing.

I am pleased to say that I have been able to "red pill" at least 2 of my fellow auti's into their own self-discovery 😂
I found a great meme that is me. The words on a photo of a dense woodland: “I prefer crowds of trees, than crowds of people”
Wow, what timing! I had uploaded my meme related to my autism like 5 hours before this video went up 😂
Guess you could add it in the next one? I could link it to you if you want!
I want that app. Bigly.
Someone on YT accidentally called the DSM-5 "Disgnostic Statistics Manuel", been using this version ever since 😂

My favorite Disney movie is lion king 2.
What a wonderful time you all must have had. (Brit translator: you lot) I loved the memes!
Omg, Mike, please do more neurodivergent meme reaction videos this is hilarious you made my night also your hair looks great today

You were in Bristol? You should have told me i would have given you a Bristolian welcome
3:17 title idea: Mike and the Menagerie

@@resourceress7 I prefer to think of it in cats per square inch, which is a low number relatively speaking!
Wait, why am I not subbed? This is like the third time I've hit subscribe now ._.
Moana, so underappreciated ❤
Too tired to write a proper comment 💚
Does the cancelling plans excuse generator app exist?
"👍🙀😻😸*in 3D!*
7:37 but completely fine!
Again a great video! I was wondering how your room looks like a hotel room. Then I heard you say that it IS a hotel room. 🤔😁😁👍🦝🐈⬛🐈🐱😸😻
Autism Store?
Is there also a new and used Autism dealership? Perhaps we can trade sensory profiles!
F. OK Mike, next stop, Berowra, Oz. 🦘
That autism stores here here in Colorado
4:07 😂🤣😂
Awe-tistic 😂😂😂 love it
