I regularly encounter three magpie families: one that drinks out of a bowl at my house on hot days, one at cricket, and one family at my school. Through my own (pretty basic, I'm not the greatest birder) observations, I've noticed that each different magpie's song is ever so slightly different. Has anyone else noticed this same kind of thing?
So, I'm looking for books, socials, websites, blogs, articles etc by Autistic people. Anyone got any ideas? I love Can You see Me? By Libby Scott and Rebecca Westcott if anyone likes books, and Autistic not Weird is a good website as well.
Please leave any websites etc. in the comments!
Some kids at my high school always for some reason, whenever they get mad at something or it doesn't work, they say "Oh, this computer is so Autistic". What on earth does this mean? How do people understand each other when one of them says something like this? I'm just so confused, someone please make this make sense.
At my school, people always say "Are you acoustic?/I'm artistic" or describe anything unnatural as Autistic.
Does anyone have any, like, ways to handle this, as an Aspie?
Oh, and they also have started saying "do you rizz 'em or tism and it really gets under my skin.
sorry if i'm not descriptive this is my first ever reddit post

Saw a post about someone's collection of 85 calculators and for some reason it made me so happy, so if anyone wants to say your special interests, please leave a comment. Here are mine:
Australian Birds, Greek mythology, fighter jets, taking surveys(lol)
Also, I know it's not a Saturday and the flair technically should be "Special Interest Wednesday", sorry for anyone who gets very annoyed by that. 😬
