How best to open a blueberry?

I always felt like Hank Hill was autistic-coded in some way, even if Mike Judge did not think of him that way.

that makes me wanna try it but I CANNOT be trusted with addictive chemicals at this point in my life
As someone with ADHD who quit nicotine a few years ago, don't do it. The stimulant effect is milder than a cup of coffee but it doesn't last as long and is incredibly addictive. If your brain needs stimulants, just get a prescription for Adderall, all other legal stimulants will pale in comparison

TIL those are called "torx" - I'll be darned. Although I still prefer my term "stardrive".
Stardrive sounds like some sort of FTL drive

I'd say it's about 10% as effective as a cup of coffee for my ADHD symptoms, and coffee is about 25% as the low dose concerta I take...if I drink one coffee per hour for the entire work day.
Math says: don't do it.
I quit smoking cigs a decade ago and would never consider using them for ADHD over coffee...and I only use coffee if I'm out of concerta

Was not aware we were supposed to compare shoe size to age.
For a better ageing experience, you should start to regularly work out before you get older than your shoe size.

I thought the star part was the bottom of the fruit.
It is time for you to pick some blueberries.

"autism didn't exist back in my day"
autism back in the day:I'd wager that some examples of autism back in the day resulted in things like obsessing over the math about change resulting in calculus, or about what happens to things moving at close to the speed of light, resulting in special relativity (and that obsession continued until it was generalized). Or a guy that loved to paint but also invent things that couldn't be made with the tech at the time. Or realize that everything in the solar system is moving the same way and there is no special retrograde movement, it just looks like that because we're moving at a different rate.
I'd wager there's at least a bit of autism involved in most cases where someone realized that conventional wisdom was wrong, with possible exceptions for times when something new gave access to new obvious evidence, like the microscope letting microbes be seen directly.

I know, that's why I like to think I have some in one of my little plastic drawers!

Autistic people can be intelligent, but all intelligence isn't down to autism.
It's more accurate to say people with Asperges can display characteristics like Einstein than claim he had Aspergers.
Leonardo da Vinci seems to have been quiet sociable. No particular spectrum behavior.
Newton. Well...
