Not just what are your autistic traits, but what are some of the silly things or compulsive things you do that you feel is unique/possibly related to your autism?
I always keep a 12’ measuring tape on me which is kind of a new thing in the past year. I fuckin love measuring things, and it makes me feel good to have JUST in case.
Tossing objects a tiny bit up in the air with one hand (or two if big), trying to have them spin as fast as possible and then catching them again. Screwdrivers, mugs, knives, bottles, plates, bags, balls, hammers, phone, tins…
With knives and other oblong objects, I try for rotating them in two directions at once.
There is a trick to catching wildly spinning knives safety almost all the time. I have mastered it. I have no idea what it is or how it works.
At first I read hamsters there instead of hammers :-) glad I misread that. I like tossing stuff as well, and have the same experience catching knives or other dangerous objects, it’s weird how you can catch them pretty reliably.
Haha, no animals. That sounds horrible :D
