  • that sounds a little harder than what I’m trying to pull off. I heard there’s this super secret scumbag lifehack where if an autistic person picks a country different enough from their own, their social symptoms tend to just appear as average immigrant idiosyncrasies.

    I’m pretty repulsed by my own country’s culture so I’m hoping I’ll be spared that “grass is always greener” fallacy that tends to befall other expats.




  • personally? bad eye contact. accidentally using innuendos because there’s 80 million of them and I forgot to consider one of them when I was speaking. not catching somebody’s meaning when they hid it in an innocuous statement. severe irritability in the cold or around loud continuous noise. overstepping a social boundary and abruptly withdrawing half an hour late when it dawns on me what I did. having no boundaries to other people because I’m trying to be personable and blend in when I don’t.

    all together that sounds pretty obvious but it never happens all at once. if I’ve gotten enough sleep then I will mask most of it, whether I want to or not
