    And “test especially well” is code for “on the spectrum” before that was a thing. We were counted as abnormal at best, and subhuman in general, but told to our gullible little faces that we were “special”, “gifted”, “talented”, young geniuses-to-be “with so much potential” …Let’s not propagate the bullshit, hmm?
