I’m autistic.

I prefer direct, literal and detailed communication

If I am:

Not making eye contact

Not greeting you back

Not understanding your social cues, etc.

There is no malicious intent. It is the autism.

Thank you for understanding.

“The funniest thing about the comment section of my autism sign video is the people who are asking me, ‘Are you self-diagnosed?
