I genuinely don't think there's a better gift for an autistic person studying history than to drop them off a random bit of old trash, like a 1950s toothpaste tube or 1940s metal stamp. You're telling me I get to spend the day researching this incredibly specific item, pertinent to [x] time period and our precise locale? I need to compile detailed data and a general timeline for this funky object and its history? For hours? This is perhaps heaven
