Me. All the time. I'm the worst liar ever for several reasons - and one is due to my compulsive urge to correct any possibility of me having accidentally spread misinformation.
@suchnerve "I just realized this thing I told someone about my special interest was slightly misleading! I must message them to correct it, despite knowing that they *definitely* don't care and have probably already forgotten what I said!"-energy
I struggle with this the most - part of me is trying to understand/explain, but most of me is shutting down because I'm being yelled at/accused of something that I didn't do *while* trying to understand why I'm being accused at all?
Talk about overstimulation.
like yeah i CAN lie but it’s EXHAUSTING, so i only ever muster up the effort when it really is necessary. and no, being mean does not count as “necessary.”
autistic people getting accused of being liars sure is funny considering the nonstop compulsion to tell the unfiltered truth all the time, and the visceral discomfort of leaving out any relevant information whatsoever
A few hours ago, I referred to "the square of lies, there, [pointing] what is it called?".
It's the gas fireplace, sigh. But resistentialism? No prob!
(Also, I have issues with flipping a switch and having a fire start - that's not a real fire, it's a lie.)
Oh, there's a word for this!
Resistentialism: the theory that inanimate objects are hostile to humans; seemingly spiteful behavior manifested by inanimate objects.
No idea why that's in my brain, but I'm glad it was useful. Once.
Oh! How did I not realize I must have been cursed by a wizard?
I’m simultaneously wondering if this wizard was gay and I’m just really awful at flirting, and offended them. So this is my life now.
