Seeing as I basically no longer consider MAGATs to be truly sentient, much less sapient:

She was going to go super deep into the research route until she learned she was violently allergic to the rats then life just kinda happened from there.

That’s the real tragedy here, damn, that fucking sucks.

EDIT:

Uh, anyway, yeah I’m an autist too, don’t have a degree in psych or pharma, but I do have pattern recognition, curiosity, analytical skills… and a whole fuckton of ©PTSD from my own truly astoundingly dysfunctional family.

As in: I ghosted them / went no contact with them so hard that they very probably think I am dead.
