landscape of non-stereotyped portrayals of Autistic adults having any needs on television, much less getting help with us asking and explaining in great detail our accommodation needs ourselves is still pretty bleak. So thank you #ThePittHBOMax for surprising me. For Mel [Dr Melissa King], >>

And we get not 1 but 2 portrayals of A/autistic adults who actually have some measure of disability and aren’t shamed for it onscreen. These adults aren’t the “high-functioning” adults we tend to see on most network dramas. These were 2 young adults requiring some support >> #ThePitt #ThePittHBOMax
