I was never diagnosed but when Asperger’s was a thing most people thought I belonged in that bucket…
Some people get annoyed at how quickly cats like/trust me. But I don’t give them eye contact and frankly look at them a little disinterested.
A lot of animals are like that. Many, like horses, don’t like touch, unless in very specific settings. All just common sense politeness among most living beings. What’s with these neurotypicals staring at everyone and touching unasked? Weirdos.
That’s a thing I do too! I offer my hand as a petting post. The interaction is usually the cat petting me at first

I like that it’s ambiguous whether you’re talking about the cats or the jealous people 😄
Works with both, no worries

Try print preview!
Or… hear me out… I can just close the page and they can fuck right off for making it harder to read.
Signing! I do this so often, I don’t know if it get’s misinterpreted or not. But it’s definitely away for me to regulate emotions
There’s an autism YouTuber that starts most of her videos with awkward singing. I just saw it as her cute quirk, but maybe she’s using it to regulate her emotions as well.
