As somebody who is also autistic, I feel like sometimes you do have to take it super seriously because this kind of stuff happens a lot. The important part is to maybe to delete most of the post once youâve thought it through, prior to hitting post.
You might not be able to tell I do this, but damn do most my writing for posts not make it to the reply button.

No, we must solve this issue. You need to understand that nobody here understands the difference between fiction and reality.

the difference between fiction and reality is that fiction needs to be believable

If you eat enough pills/chems/things there is no difference.

Yeah but whatâs done is already done!
Itâs not like someone can just draw a time machine in the next panel so that he can go back and blurt something like âTell her you have bad knees!â before the future version pops out of existence, leaving a confused past version wondering âWho? When?â Followed by a new arc where he doesnât go to the bar because he thinks he needs to do something more important, wanders around looking for the woman he needs to inform about his bad knees (which arenât even really that bad).
All to set up a scenario where an exhausted man sits down on a bench and is approached by another woman who flirtily asks him if heâs a bad boy and he absently replies that his knees are bad, she laughs and they fall in love.
And every now and then he thinks about that alternate reality where he somehow determined that âTell her you have bad knees!â was enough to not only win his true loveâs heart but also somehow led him to her. Though he loves his life with her, he obsesses with finding ways to unlock that advanced intellect in this timeline.
Itâs not like you could just draw that, the past is in the past, worry about the present!
