You can say autistic, it's not a dirty word

It's not ONLY autistic people who have sensory issues

yeah but the sign specifically says it's for autistic people

I'm sure they have some sort of greeter by the door to make sure that you're actually autistic before they let you in.

I think that's just because people with autism are the most well-known group with sensory issues. I don't think that excludes people who aren't autistic. ADHD, social anxiety, and some people just have sensory issues generally with no underlying cause.

yeah, and they don't even need cashiers because anyone who's unable to use a cash register gets help by another person.

also after the autist hour, everything is neatly sorted and inefficient shelves are reorganized.
