Today in "Tell Me You're Neurodivergent without Telling Me You're Neurodivergent".

@Neverfadingwood I want to report that post. Reason: I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

@Neverfadingwood yeah, that last one's always a delicate dance where I often smash toes

@Neverfadingwood "Why writing a blog post about my social f*ck up that was supposed to be 2 paragraphs ended up turning into a short novel" (vol 1/5)

"Calling my friend to ask for help with something that will only take 5 minutes this time I swear" (running time 3 hours also by the end the protagonist never asks them the thing they were going to ask)

@Neverfadingwood By day 2 of the phone call I had finally asked the thing I was supposed to ask.

@micheal65536 I'm really bad with phone calls. Just hate them - I can't read NT people at all on the phone.

@Neverfadingwood This is a phone call to another autistic person so as is typical for me it quickly turns into recursive infodumping before the original question is soon forgotten.

@Neverfadingwood and my perennial favourite, "I Really Was Looking Where You Were Pointing But I Absolutely Could Not See What You Were Pointing At Until You Described It To Me", new episodes every Wednesday!

@millihertz @Neverfadingwood Also featured "I promise I was listening but my brain wouldn't turn those sounds into words"

@Neverfadingwood
For me it's probably often: I wanted to make it sound mildly funny, but it actually came out incredibly creepy and it took me about 20 minutes to realize why :marseydizzy:
