@PhoenixSerenity @giflian Sometimes I think the biggest hindrance to autistic people "mind reading" is that we see too much, not too little, making us way more likely to get mixed signals when people put up fronts.

It also causes problems when we try to interpret motives, because while an NT thinks the reason is "obvious" (even when their conclusion is incorrect) we can see a hundred different possibilities. We piss them off because we don't play by the rules they expect everyone to play by, where there's a standardized "correct" interpretation for every social interaction, because we don't automatically make assumptions.
