Time to watch a truly autistic film.

It is the tale of a child who is born different and who is abused because of that, no matter how much he tried to fit in. As an adult he learns to embrace himself and to come to terms with who he is, his strengths and the way he can best live his life. It is an epic expression of self-compassion and realisation and a lesson for us all.

Unfortunately, it ends in tragedy. As the un-dealt with trauma of never having been able to fit in, makes him succumb to the foul temptations and selfishness of someone seeming to promise what has never been and which he forgets he has moved beyond.

It is a sad end, but a true tragedy is meant as a warning.

And yes, I'm watching The Grinch. It's that time of year, when some things have to be remembered, even if in sadness. 😀

And in the end, he gives up everything that makes him who is, just for the illusion of just one day. BTW, once you start seeing this film in this way, there's no going back. 😀

@pathfinder @actuallyautistic In my family they used to tell me that I was the Grinch because I ruined their Christmas 😅

@pathfinder @actuallyautistic I think so. Well, what I usually do is make fun of Santa and traditional things. Fireworks put me in a bad mood.

Fireworks put a lot of us in a mood. Also, this time of year is a target rich environment. 😀

@bughuntercat @pathfinder @actuallyautistic I was banned from family xmas for several years, because one year I was so depressed, I brought eveeryone's mood down.

I was depressed because a scammer managed to get me suspended from my primary source of social, The Sims Online. The suspension started xmas morning.

I was not fooled by the scammer. What happened was, that scammer was mad that I was not scammable, so they took their lies to the game devs, and devs fell for their lies.

True story.
