Descriptions of autistic folks as having "trouble in social situations" but all my autistic friends get along great with each other in their social situations. This reads like all the "introverted people just need to learn small talk" instead of having articles where "extroverted people just need to learn to be quiet". Most of my friend AND professional colleague groups are filled with neurospicy folks. And we seem to get along just fine thank you very much. Anyhow. I imagine this isn't new to many folks here in the fediverse... Don't mind me. Just falling into a new research dive. - This research dive feels very meta, by the way.
