Why Do Neurotypical People Have All These Unspoken Rules. Why Is It Considered Proper Social Interaction

It has just now occurred to me that what’s “visibly on the spectrum” is wildly different for autistic and allistic people. Most allistics don’t recognize autistic behavior (at all or anything more that weird/quirky) unless it impacts their ability to interface with an autistic person. That’s when allistics see someone as visibly on the spectrum. Other autistics can spot each other from a mile a way though over minor stuff.

For example every allistic I’ve ever worked with has told me “oh but you’re sooo good at socializing with people?!? I could neverrrr tell?!?!” If they learned I’m autistic.

However other autistic people meet me and are like: YOU. AUTISM.

Y'know what I hate more than anything? Cringe compilations

Literally 99% of the videos on these compilations are just people expressing themselves??? Like, just say you don't have enough confidence to express your gender, or dress differently, you don't have to attack the people that do. Leave them the fuck alone

Not only that, but the people that put together these compilations thrive off of neurodivergent people being themselves. I can't tell you how many times I've said or done something "cringe" because I can't interpret social cues as well as other people can.

Cope bitch

You have never felt more acutely aware of your defects. Born half-deaf and blind in life —and now afterlife, you quite literally stumble, squeak and cower your way through surviving your first week in Hell. Thankfully, you have found companionship in an old timey hand-held radio and a demented cat. With how much they both screeched and roared, you might as well be wearing your old staticky hearing aids again.

your Honour,

the children:

Continuing from my last post, I tried my hand at interpreting a Demobat!Eddie Munson. Spent the whole session listening to Mötley Crüe, a metal band I’ve recently fallen in love with. I might render it later.

New qsmp egg? On it

Don’t worry, he’ll catch you when you fall.
