Introduction to this blog
I like to eat rice with a spoon.
In North America where I live, many people consider it weird and wrong to eat rice with a spoon, because it's not something they do, or it's not something a lot of people in this area do.
Being autistic, I do a lot of things differently from most neurotypicals. Sometimes the way I do things is actually wrong or inefficient, and I appreciate being corrected. But sometimes my way of doing things is just different, but it works better for me - like eating rice with a spoon instead of a fork.
This blog is not literally about eating rice with spoons. I'm using that title to say that autistic people may seem different or unusual than allistics, but we're not inherently bad people for being different.
In this blog I write about autism in general, my own experiences with being autistic, and similar topics. I'll also reblog posts relevant to the topic of autism.
