Now I'm past 30k followers I've gone all paranoid about being misinterpreted again, after a few tweets accusing me of trying to speak for the whole autistic community.
It's annoying how much self doubt things like that cause. What if I am assuming I speak for all autistic people? But I don't. But what if I am? Arggghhhh.
It's just such a typically autistic thing, isn't it? Potentially misconstruing what is ultimately a social situation (twitter) and panicking about it for ages afterwards.
Maybe I ought to be grateful, I don't think I get anywhere near as much grief as some people. I mean, I'm a white cis male for a start so I'm already avoiding probably 99% of online trolls.
I'm thinking out loud. Don't mind me.
