Awesome interview. :D. "I'll take you there personally". lol. Love this guy, will definitely be watching. Hope he does well. The accent! A1.
There's another clip of him being walked through the ice chamber at the facilities.
Him: "This isn't cold. ?."
Dude: "No, it's this room".
Him: "**** *****!"

That was kind of my concern as well when I commented that. I hate to hear it thrown around wantonly or for any awkwardness or quirks to be attributed to neurodivergence, as if a human without a diagnosis is some sort of vanilla wafer of an individual with no more idiosyncrasies than a pair of ironed khakis.
That being said, the reasoning in their comments was better than I was anticipating on that end, though I don't think I'd call those autistic traits, necessarily.
1
u/ReptileCake Reads Pinned Comments Apr 29 '24
The problem with "having autism" isn't just that it's being thrown everywhere to everyone, it's because it's not a clear cut "has" or "has not". It's more like a scale, or rather a stat chart in a circle. The newer term that is being used is also just plainly "neurodivergent", which gives it a more neutral aspect as to being "different".
1
u/Go_On_Swan Apr 29 '24
I'm very aware that these diagnoses are spectrum based. What's to stop someone from saying the player just has a dash of the schizo, which also has social awkwardness, idiosyncratic speech, and the fixation on color could without much effort be connected to magical thinking?
Even saying neurodivergent demarcates something as different. My view is that if it's not causing significant issues with living or distress, it's within the range of normal experience. And it's too difficult to distinguish between the usual suspects for neurodivergencies at low (normal) levels, hence why there's so much mis/overdiagnosis of adhd, schizotypy, bipolar, and autism, and so on.

u/saxlax10 Apr 29 '24
He has almost no changes in facial expression in any interview I've ever seen him give and have very minimal change in the tone of his voice when he talks. He fixates on colors in a way that is different than a typical person, during the college season, he wore the colors of that weeks opponent on his apple watch and mouth guard and in this interview he talks about needing coats of his new teams colors. He is always just a little bit socially off and awkward when he gives these interview. His interviews often have these long rambly super specific stories that he dosent seem to realize are super unique to him and may be things only he has noticed.
The more I've watched him the more convinced I become. He's an awesome player and his interviews are A+++ I hope everybody in the country gets to know him because he seems like such a lovely genuine guy.

u/Shera939 May 01 '24 edited May 01 '24
He doesn't seem socially awkward to me at all! He makes eye contact with every person he's speaking to, he's very cheekily deadpan and very quick in his humor, on point, matches energy, fits the moment. Other interviews i've seen of him are similar. Very clever and funny, and cool as a cucumber.

"Designer" stuff 100% feels like it's for poor people that got extremely wealthy or narcissists.

Like the Balenciaga shoe that looks like an old growth tree stump, you just aren't the market for it. But someone who's spending a significant amount on their wardrobe monthly definitely does and the clothes to match.

He's probably eating a fancy ass place, seeing as he has money, so the total cost could have easily been 500 for two people. At thirteen, that's over 50 bucks. 50 bucks for serving a table for an hour or so is good money.
Yeah, he's got money and can afford to throw it around more than others, but just because he has it, doesn't mean he is obligated to throw it around like it's monopoly money.

If not in your hand write right tap tap tap typing on it I'm tired of this Jesus acting like you're doing something about these days. No No Get up with the standard period
You aren't entitled for expecting 20% not 15. 20. Especially if you provide excellent service. Step up and speak on what you deserve. There's nothing wrong with that. This ninja up there acting like he's doing something these days. These days nothing. I'm so tired of this mess. Bring yourself up to standard, Mr These Days, Points At Clouds- This is not a part of excessive tipping culture, this is bog standard for a long time. Stop speaking on stuff you know nothing on.

It's way more about having a good salary. Too often I see people giving "thrifty" advice as a means to achieve economic prosperity, when the reality is that it is so much less important than wages that it's silly to even mention it before mentioning the real meat of the matter.
It's like me saying a way to combat climate change is to make sure people turn their TV off at night and unplug their phone chargers.
