Autistic mind here: Reading yours is giving me a headache. It's like debugging a minecraft mod after patch day. Please reset aggression level to zero and run a malware scan.
Yeah, I'm neurodivergent in a lot of different ways, and every one of them reduces the efficacy of neurotypical empathy. That sensation you're experiencing right now from talking to me is the same way neurotypical people feel when they talk to you. No wonder neurotypicals are so ableist to autistics, talking to us causes them pain. But it's still not right for them to demand we think like them, and it's still not right for you to demand I think like you. What we have to learn is how to coexist together.
And any coexistence we reach isn't going to involve always assuming we can read minds effectively. It's just an unrealistic standard.
Anyway, maybe it wouldn't hurt so much if you weren't trying to read my mind without consent. No means no, but you didn't even ask. No wonder you're in pain, you tried to delve inside my mind and I kicked you back out.
