what are you watching?

I'm watching The Dropout, the drama series based upon the true story of Elizabeth Holmes and her company Theranos.

Really enjoying it. I've been wondering if Elizabeth may be undiagnosed autistic, the way she doesn't understand the social rules and regularly practises her 'masking' in front of a mirror.

I know there are bound to be plenty of awful people who are autistic, but still, ew. I listened to the Dropout podcast series they put out a few years ago and it was shocking and scary how someone could become a billionaire based entirely on lies. I'm not overflowing with sympathy for investors who were duped, but hearing about people being incorrectly told their cancer had returned because of useless tests from Theranos was heartbreaking. 

Maybe it was just the way she was portrayed in the drama. It's certainly hard to imagine any autistic person lying consistently and knowingly doing so much harm.
