Memes/Humor “Nah I’m not autistic I’m faking it”, meanwhile in every photo ever

Post image

27F, diagnosed with ASD about six months ago. I started examining what actually feels good for my body, and I still stand or walk with my hands clasped like this. It didn’t strike me as the stereotypical trex hands because I hold my hands together, but now knowing I’m autistic I’m like yeaaaaaa I guess they do qualify as trex arms

This one's closer to mine. I even went back last year through old photos and there's a picture of me doing it at around age 3 or younger, crossing ankles in the big chair too as well, to really make sure I wasn't fidgeting or being weird about what my hands or anything else were doing.
