Not going to quote the OP because it's not their fault they would like to have something that produces visceral horror in me, but every word of the concept "fleece-lined sheer-look tights" has made the skin on my legs try to crawl inside itself in sensory nightmare reaction #TheTism

Thread on... well look, if I'm going to lie, even a little harmless white lie, this is what I have to go through. I'm really, genuinely, stunningly bad at it. #TheTism

Luna’s just trying to help a customer find their way when suddenly… the linguistics police arrive. The customer starts guessing where Luna is “from” based on word choice: first “the 405” (California??), then “pop” (Midwest??). But here’s the thing: being autistic means sometimes we pick up words and phrases from people around us, TV, or just because they sound right. It doesn’t always mean anything about where we’re from, it just means we’re autistic. Instead of explaining, Luna does the sensible thing: pulls out an axe and tells them to run. Problem solved. 😅🪓

Do you have any words or phrases you use that everyone assumes mean you’re from somewhere else?
