This is Harlie. She's a Yoda/Baked Potato mix found as a stray with severely infected ears. She needed a double ear canal ablation, and @15outof10.org was able to fully cover her care thanks to your support of our merch. She's now fully healed and wanted to introduce you to her new brother, Pierre ❤️🩹

I have absolutely despised & had fear of talking on the phone since I was a tiny child, same for video calls. I avidly dislike seeing my own reflection. Yes, it's hard to discern tone in text, but EMOJIS help a lot! 😲🤔I try to ask what is meant by a statement if confused.

There's a bit of a misconception that autistic people can't pick up on facial cues... probably because some autistic people actually can't... but this is not even close to a universal experience.
Nicole Filippone, Autistic Advocate & Author (@sensorystories.bsky.social) reposted reply parent
Autistic people take things literally **when context is missing** and they don't have enough information to make logical inferences about what the other person might be trying to communicate beyond their actual words.
Nicole Filippone, Autistic Advocate & Author (@sensorystories.bsky.social) reposted
"Autistic people take everything literally" This is not an accurate statement, and I'm going to explain why. Yes, autistic people do often take things literally, but there's more to it than that...

I appreciate your kind words, but I don't know how intelligent I am (or wise, for that matter). Ideally, we follow evidence where it leads, and hopefully that prompts us to act ethically — but at the end of the day, scientists are just people like everybody else.

I don't know who needs to see this but not talking about your special interests because people don't want to hear about them is a form of masking... and internalized autism... and can cause extreme (autistic) distinct anxiety.

To be clear...this is the pipeline many autistic people experience **when our needs aren't met.** This post is not meant to be alarmist. It's meant to point out that when we ask for support, we're not just asking for things we want... we're pleading for things we NEED.
Nicole Filippone, Autistic Advocate & Author (@sensorystories.bsky.social) reposted
I think I figured out how to sum up the (unsupported) autistic experience into a single pipeline... Constant & unrelenting autistic triggers → constant micro-traumas → masking → internalized autism → distinct anxiety + autistic burnout → harmful coping strategies + physical/mental health issues
