when you're autistic but you still wanna be cool online
- when ur reblogging a post about your special interest and ur trying to decide whether or not infodumping and screaming in all caps in the tags would be annoying
- “am i close enough with this person to use u instead of you? do i even need to wait? can i use “u” with strangers??”
- “you’ll have to forgive me for this…” no that sounds way too formal what’s the Normal way to phrase it?
-“is this a situation where proper grammar and spelling is necessary?”
- “i’m feeling an emotion ?? what do people do when they feel an emotion? swear??? yeah i can do that what’s the right swear word to use in this context?”
- when you’re re-reading a post before you post it and find words like “therefore” and u gotta rewrite the whole thing
- when your grammar is both too formal and too casual and ur not sure if what u said was phrased awkwardly
- when you run out of words to say so you respond to everything with ‘aaaaaa’
- “was that a nice thing to say???? did that seem blunt or rude? how do i tell?? i don’t want them to think i hate them. best to be overly positive just to be sure”
- typin how you talk in real life…… so there are fuckin ellipses everywhere……… cause you pause a lot. and then you feel weird about it.
- “is this person being rude or am i misinterpreting it? best to just not respond at all”
