Hello <3 + masterlist

I'm Ray, local fandom enthusiast

+ Masterlists under the cut

Sometimes I meet someone new during a good period of my state and it's all fun and good until I eventually fall back to my normal, lower state, and can't be as active or attentive as I was when we first met so they take it personally bc they thought the happy was the normal and I'm acting different now only to them and it's oh so, so tiring trying to explain to someone that no, I don't suddenly like them less, I'm just trying to fucking survive. And it drains me bc I either have to pretend to be still good so they don't get offended, or try and explain my condition to people who don't want to listen. The alternative is to NOT make any new friends which I can't just not do

I LOVE being positive and happy and social but I hate meeting new people during high period just because of this. Because little to no people actually understand it, or just don't want to understand at all. Meet the low state first so you can see the difference it makes when I do feel better and how good it is for me during that time and I don't wanna deal with people taking personal offense to things that are NOT personal at all

Sometimes I'm genuinely scared of people getting offended by my rude humor. Like I don't use slurs or bad words it's just the general tone of my humor is very deadpan and mean leaning if you don't know me

So like in social media I never actually use my own humor. I spent 40% of my childhood manually learning how other people joke with each other, which I very very later on learned was a sign of my autism along with me having to learn how to interact and talk and walk and laugh and sit and eat and learn and all ekdndkdjdkdkd

But anyway as I said it's mostly in my social media presence, since irl people can see my facial expressions to tell that I'm 100% joking and laugh with me and they don't mind. Which is what I don't like about texting commenting, people can't get the tone you're imagining in your head and can interpret it so different. I have one (1) friend who never ever actually takes me seriously and even goes toe to toe with my mean humor (I'm looking at you Mich you absolute goat <3) and haven't gotten offended or misunderstood me for years now which is always a huge relief for me and a weight off my chest to not try to mask too much

So yeah since internet is already so prone to starting up drama and taking even lightest hearted shit that don't even look/sound mean/offensive badly and just want to hate on everything in general, I just don't use my humor at all. Which is a bit of a bummer. But I genuinely don't want people I enjoy the content/chats of to misunderstand me if I accidently do slip onto mean humor

If you see this and later on encounter me saying something that could be considered mean, know that I'm definitely not trying to be mean, I just really don't know what I'm doing with people sometimes and forget not everyone has the same sense of humor as me

Welcome to How the fuck am I supposed to pick up that social cue

Yesterday my sister and I were watching our show while having dinner in the living room. We asked our parents if they wanted to watch and they said no. My mom said she didn't care. We watched and had dinner and it was fine. Then we finished dinner and tidied up the place and I continued watching the show. By that time my brother also came into the room and was sitting with us. The show was on very low volume, I was watching, everyone else was minding their own business and occasionally chatting.

After a while my sister told me to turn it off, so I asked why. She said not everyone is gonna wanna watch it. I said, I know no one is watching it we asked and they didn't say anything. She said we should watch something everyone will like. I asked why bc no one asked for it or said anything. She said it's obvious, I asked how so. We asked and they said no, they didn't say anything about wanting to watch something else, they were all on their phones and didn't even look at the screen. After that my mom also piped up and said like yeah it'd be better if we watched something else. I said why didn't she say anything until now, and she didn't answer. My father then added like I said an hour ago we could watch a movie together around this time. I said I know, but you didn't brought it up again so I assumed you didn't want to anymore or changed your mind. Then they kinda said they expected me to bring it up. I said how would I know if you want to watch something else, or don't wanna watch my stuff, if you don't say anything at all. I can't read your mind. They all kinda just looked at me like I was the one saying something crazy. I turned the show off and just asked what did they want to watch. I also said we could have changed the show much earlier if they just said something else and no one elaborated after that.

So in conclusion I'm just left wondering how the fuck was I supposed to catch on that "social cue". And my family is, unintentionally or otherwise, making me feel like the dumb one for not reading their mind. Like they've done since I was little

Thanks for listening. I hate being autistic

I genuinely start breathing weird and my hands shake and my shoulders does this weird shiver thing when I go to my phone gallery and can't find the thing I'm looking for even though I know which folder it's in and in which two other photos it's between
