... so what you're saying is that exoplanets cause autism!

You have the causation wrong here.

Autistic people go into astronomy, and then find more exoplanets. Therefore autism causes exoplanets!

This is technically sort of a little correct.

This is stupid and you know it. Exoplanets were discovered much later. It's Pluto that caused the autism epidemic and autistic people caused the exoplanet epidemic. Keep the causation clear.

No. It's obviously the space telescopes.

Are Smelloscopes ok?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 21 hours ago

You already asked that last year!
