Be able to recite everything they’ve ever read, yet unable to recall relevant information on demand.
The power to have the entire universe on the tip of your tongue…
That sounds horrendous
The power to lick everything in the entire universe at once
And then smell it just to see
Presque vu man!
Walk through social constructs as if they were air.
Obliterate objects by hyperfixating on them.
Drive villains mad by monologuing intensely at them about radio tower structural design history.
That last one had me lmao

Go on. I’m listening
I threw those words together at random, but reading it back I got very excited to learn about it. Luckily, Wikipedia has some meat on the matter: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers
This is probably the most autistic thing to occur in this comment section lol.
Oh no, you fell into your own trap!
Oh wooow 😂
Fatal weakness: When costume is any of: A bit too dirty, smells to much of softener, too tight on the wrists, too loose on the elbows, a bit itchy, smells weird for no reason, did it have this color it looks wrong, no wait I put it on in the wrong order I have to take it all off and do it over again, cape touches neck
Or the shirt still has the tags on 😫
He can be a savant in a single domain of his choosing, but he can never read the room well enough to choose the right one.
Just be a savant at figuring out the best kind of savantism to pick, ez
“… fuck I should’ve chosen CPR.”
A savant at CPR lmaooo 😂
They handling logistics for all the other super heros. All the mundane shipping, messaging hundreds of vendors, working with local government to handle events they do this all from their computer. Trello is their secret weapon. Know one knows their true identity, but no one knows their super hero identity either. They never leave the house. Their sidekick is just an ordinary cat.
But without them the world wouldn’t last a day.

predicting every single conversation but none of the predictions being right
“This guy is so good at predicting what people are going to talk about. He’s never right, but he’s always predicting what people are going to say before anyone else gets a chance to even think about it.” 😆
Like the ferryman of Norwegian folklore: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/"Good_day,_fellow!"_"Axe_handle!"
It has turned into an phrase used when people appear to respond to either a misheard/misunderstood question or a conversation they have in their head not realizing it differs from the ongoing conversation.
Super Too Much: gets more everything than everyone else.
Extreme levels of social awkwardness and the innate ability to infect/inject other people with it temporarily. An angry mob is throwing bricks in the streets? Let Sup-Aut talk to them for five minutes and everyone will be so uncomfortable that they’d rather go home than rioting. Sup-Aut is especially effective because they, too, would rather go home soon that continue standing in the spotlight, so these encounters usually take all of five minutes until the respective issue is resolved.
Weakness: everything they get told to resolve has to be done either RIGHT NOW and completely unprepared, or they’ll procrastinate and prepare until the city burned to the ground. There is no middle ground between these extremes, and it is impossible to predict which one will happen.
He is a surgeon He is a surgeon He is a surgeon
I don’t get it. What’s the spirit of this joke?
It’s a very dumb joke , making fun of a dumb tv show call the good doctor. The writers decided to write a show about a young autistic surgeon, and also decided that his only personality trait would be being a surgeon. There is a scene where he is fired, has a mental breakdown and keeps yelling " I am a surgeon".
Mostly a dumb joke, making fun of writers who wrote the main character of a show based solely of one idea, with no character at all.
counting toothpicks?
Damn, do you have an example of how to use that super power for good?
They already exist and their name is Murderbot. Check out the Murderbot Mysteries.
i saw this movie… ‘no country for old men’
Total lack of empathy, saving the universe one Thanos Snap at a time.
Afaik autism isn’t defined by a lack of empathy (that would be sociopathy iirc)

It’s complicated
Further reading/listening on the double-empathy “problem”: https://www.spectrumnews.org/news/double-empathy-explained/
Interesting. I do relate with the gaze and emotional empathy things, especially the “fluctuating empathy” part. I’m not officially diagnosed though. But my (licensed psychologist) sister says I’m “definitely on the spectrum”, for what it’s worth
That’s a good article, thanks. Sorry you got downvoted! I agree it’s complicated…
He’s just super, hero not sure
