#autism powers

I think autistic people who found out they were autistic later in life, whether it be actually diagnosed or self diagnosed, go through a hyperfixation. And I think it's less of a hyperfixation on autism as an individual "concept" and more of a hyperfixation on yourself.

My family may have hated my rabbit hole of autistic things but I'm grateful I had the opportunity to have myself as a hyperfixation. I know more about myself than anyone else now and I think that's one of the most beautiful things in the world.

Being autistic definitely made me hotter I think.

My failure to draw maomao as a cat and a warrior cat in turn is taking a toll on my mental health

Autism is a superpower because I was extremely ill the other day, like midway through puking, but I dont like doing things without background noise, so I stopped and scrolled my phone for a video, resisting the vomit reflex as it hit me in waves and I had to spit out the saliva that naturally builds up when your body wants to puke, and I just couldn't find a video and eventually my body just gave up trying to throw up???

RPG where you interact with an autistic person and all of your charisma checks are coded to fail.

It kind of is like a HUD. I'm unusually good at mental math, even for an engineer, and sometimes people at work like to test my autism powers by picking two numbers for me to multiply. To make an example of it, I dunno, 26 times 72. And I can see the sheet in my head, and I can just go: 26 times 72 is equivalent to 25 times 72, plus 72, and 25 times 72 is just 100 times 18, which is 1800, so it's 1800+72=1872. Which is actually really easy to manage. And I can see the sheet in my head where I'm doing this, feel the hand in my head writing it down the same way that the voice in my head narrates it, it's just that I have the HUD and they don't. I'm not even doing math better than them, I'm just visualizing a piece of paper better than them and it makes me seem better at math. This is my argument for why STEM majors need art classes.

Me: Just misread Austin Powers as autism powers. This would do numbers on tumblr

my personal assistant who’s the geeky guy from national treasure: uh buddy, you’re not gonna believe this

me: so they’ve found me. Get in the car beautiful, it’s time we blow this popsicle stand
