        Erika Sanborne, autistic educator and researcher, describes it as “enthusiastically communicating a large quantity of words, with an inordinate amount of detail, about one super interesting category of information, all at once, interpersonally.” Info dumping is often called a love language because it’s a way for autistic individuals to express what they are passionate about with those they care about most.

          My wife and I call them unskippable cutscenes and we share ours with each other all the time. Sure we don’t always understand the details, but we do understand the passion we both have for the cutscenes we start and it’s adorable to watch as the sole audience member.
