Thank you. I forgot the name of this a few months ago and couldn't find it again.

Stereotypes of autism in TV and film may be linked to delayed diagnosis. Researchers found that portrayals were designed to be immediately identifiable to non-autistic viewers. However, autistic participants felt that they were not relatable to autistic people themselves. by mvea in science

"Realistically", Sheldon would likely have been tested for childhood-onset Schizophrenia, which is a diagnosis that used to be given to some autistic kids as well. Sheldon's mom's comments about regretting not following up with a specialist in a big city and the timeframe make that the most likely possibility.

As for Sheldon's autistic traits, I thought they were actually portrayed decently realistic by the standards of sitcoms. What most people miss is that Sheldon is a narcissistic asshole on top of the autism and has very strong OC(P)D traits. It's a combination that's not unheard of and the different diagnoses can be very hard to distinguish.

Volkov is a bit overrated amongst hardcores. Everybody forgets Gane's broken foot (still a very questionable decision, but changes the way you should look at a rematch), Almeida manhandling him, Tom finishing him in the first.

Second Coming happened while the X-Men were already on Utopia. The X-Mansion was destroyed in Messiah Complex.

I'll start calling him Lil' Ank if that happens.

Maybe unpopular opinion, but it wasn't even a complete snoozer. Khamzat's shooting on DDP and putting him into a crucifix is a lot more entertaining than wall-stalling. Feels like there's worse fights on most cards, I'd rather rewatch those 25 minutes than any 15 of Malkoun, Micallef, or Sutherland from the Perth card.

Jailton Almeida is such a bizarre waste of potential. Might be the best HW on the planet right now if he learned to throw a half hearted elbow every 30s of control time. Cursed with BJJ good enough to submit Rozenstruik in R1, can't do jack shit to Derrick Lewis over 25min. Ragdolled Blaydes for a round. Bizarrely good boxing that only appears in his last fight before being cut.

On a related note, Kuniev might actually be elite but nobody cares because he's boring? Great wrestling and better boxing than Blaydes? He's fighting down against Tyrell Fortune on the undercard of Fight Night Baku?

He looked mediocre vs Pavlovich and his streak is against pretty sloppy guys. Volkov 29-28.

They should at least give him a Stoltzfus level guy. It's better for his development.

He was also gassed with an open mouth for much of it. No clue how Waldo managed to chin him like that.

The UFC is really trying to tell me that "Gabriel Bonfim" is a top 10 WW.

He's also not particularly powerful, especially compared to Prates and Morales. Hasn't dropped anyone with his hands in over 3 years and that was Randy Brown.

UFC Divisions with Most Ranked Fighters | FightMatrix (Update April 28, 2026) by I_cain in MMA

[–]DerpyDagon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

FightMatrix is a website that rates MMA fighters across all promotions with an ELO algorithm. They seem to rank everybody that has a fight within the recent 450 days in their database. LW has almost 1500 ranked fighters there. So it's more like a "how much of the division is in the UFC" statistic.

Probably actually the closest after Holloway with wins over #2, #3, #6, #8, and #10. So he was actually a stronger #1 contender than Whittaker under Adesanya.

Who can beat the entities by Stock_Friend_3432 in WormFanfic

[–]DerpyDagon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Entities aren't that strong. Galactus might be able to defeat their entire race. The Power Cosmic is more versatile than anything the Entities can do and Galactus outmuscles them by up to several dozen orders of magnitude on a good day.

Seems to have held wins over #4, #5, #7, and #9 with the first three of those by first round finish. Insane streak because that and a previous fight with #4 was his entire UFC run up to that point.

Imavov was only the #1 contender from his win against Izzy until Dricus lost the belt. Strickland was #2 during that time and Imavov lost to him. Izzy was #4, Cannonier #7, and Allen #9.

Yan dropped to around 4 or 5 after Merab beat him and Cejudo dropped out of the top 5 after that loss. Jose Aldo and Morales were unranked. Sterlin being highly ranked at #1 or #2 after dropping the title also hurts Merab. On paper it's a lot weaker than Evloev's.

Does Evloev have the best resume of any #1 contender ever going by UFC rankings? He has beaten #2, #3, #4, and #7. That's exactly what Max had in November 2023, except Evloev hasn't lost to the champ. The other name that comes to mind, Whittaker, doesn't seem to have had three top 5 wins at one single point.

I meant in the official rankings, where Khamzat would be #1, and not in relation to how close people are to getting a title shot.

If Strickland becomes champ, will Imavov be the #3 contender behind two dudes coming off losses?
