I was once broken up with because I was "smiling" in a tense moment, when I was very nervous and scared. This type of stuff has happened to me one million times

“a smile that doesn't convey delight or happiness”

Many Autistic ppl have difficulty smiling “naturally” and some of us involuntarily smile at “inappropriate” times, such as when we are nervous or upset.

There is no such thing as a “high functioning” autistic person, because any autistic who can “pass” is essentially walking over hot coals to perform for non-autistic standards, and those non-autistics usually won’t be around to witness the resulting emotional and physical wreckage.
On Being Articulate
They say I'm articulate. (I think about all the words that stay locked in my throat, and I give a small and terrified smile and look over their shoulder and into nothing at all.) I'm really quite luck...

Recently stopped telling people I'm autistic and started saying the reason I'm doing or not doing certain things is because I'm a Virgo and it's pretty fucked up how much more willing people are to accommodate me

داشتم «پیک سحری» پروین رو‌ گوش می‌دادم و همزمان ظرفها رو‌خشک می‌کردم و باهاش می‌خوندم. آهنگ بعد پرید رو این:

ترک خوردم!
نه خواننده رو می‌شناسم، نه این تیپی آهنگ گوش میدم رو‌ اسپاتیفای. الگوریتمون شکسته، جناب!

I just noticed when you quote post something and they delete the first post it disappears altogether. And your post will look like a normal post.

Nope! I grew up in a warm country, where I had to tolerate 40+ degrees in summer. Then moved to The Netherlands. Anything over 25 degrees is too hot for now.

یه ویدیو مصاحبه خیابانی دیدم تو آمریکا میپرسید آخرین باری که آزار خیابانی دیدی کی بود. زن‌ها همه ظرف یک هفته تا همون روز حداقل یه مثال داشتند، مردها میگفتند هرگز.
به این فکر کردم که آخرین بار کی بود؟ یادم نمیاد. آخرین بار وقتی بود که ایران بودم. سی و چند سالگی.

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
