“Why are you so quiet?” Autistic me: Because I'm in the company of someone who I don't really want to be in company with.

When I was sixteen I got cishet adults tell me "It gets better" while not taking me seriously. Well I'm now thirty four years old as of today and wondering to myself when dose it get better exactly?
Realized I'm bi at sixteen but didn't know I'm trans until I was twenty three.
Share a trans and/or LGBTQ+ lore about yourself.

@lawrites.bsky.social I was considering going to the cinema on my birthday to watch Spider-Man Brand New Day because at the time there was 5:15pm showings. But when the site updated itself the showings on my b-day are too early. Disappointed I looked up when it comes out on digital. October 6th
Its easier for neurotypicals to take a stance against social media and be all like "Step away from social media. You'll be happier and healthier! go spend time with your friends" While this person is not autistic and has a loving partner and a bunch of friends.
I feel more lonely in a room full of people
Being autistic but there is something worse than being alone and that is being with people that make you feel alone. I isolate most of the time. I find comfort in music and my interests instead of humans. Music and my interests are very important to me. I feel free when I'm alone.
All the while being told that life would be better if you just tried harder.
This is me right now and it completely sucks!
Being an unsupported autistic person (with any level of support needs) often means living in a constant state of urgent survival, relying on strategies that keep you alive but don't actually help you find peace, comfort, fulfillment, and happiness...

Playing a Kojima game is like twenty minutes of gameplay and then a three hour cutscene.
Common ableist phrases: You're just lazy Get a job You're not even trying Others can do it, why not you? It's easy Get to the point You always make a mess These are just some examples.
Every trans suicide is an act of state-sanctioned murder. It is simple as that.
2002: This Resident Evil movie sucks! Its nothing like the games. 2026: This Resident Evil movie is GREAT! It's nothing like the games!!

It's usually when big games get announced and I think to myself well I want to play that.
a CORE TENET of suicide prevention: ANY barrier stopping you from killing yourself is a GOOD barrier. doesn’t matter if it seems silly. treasure your barriers to suicide and hold them close 💜.
Today I didn't know what to do. I didn't really have the energy or the mood to play videogames or work on my stories. So I just sat in my room and listened to AFI Decemberunderground (the actual cd) album instead. Great album!

What I mean about throwing people off. They seem to think I'll talk like I do here. Do people forget here that I can edit what I write a million times and no pressure in a short amount of time to say what I think ? Do other humans not realise this ? Maybe. Maybe not. No wonder I prefer dogs.
This seems to completely throw people off in real life. Especially the ones that know of me from my online presence over the years.
Part of my autistic experience is often not being able to find the words or, if I can find them, not being able to speak them. This is a regular acurance in a public setting. It feels like there’s some kind of block, like my brain is so busy that there’s been an abrupt stop.
