When people find out I’m #ActuallyAutistic & (well-meaning but problematically) say something like “Don’t worry, you can’t tell!”

I think to myself “You’ve obviously never seen me zoned out at the grocery store w/my over-ear headphones, making clicking noises in my throat & doing god-knows-what kind of hand movements that feel good in the moment”

Y’know…just in my #Autistic groove 🎶

Fly your #neurodivergent flag high wherever you please, my friends⛳️
