    That never happens to me because I’m too autistic to be aware of my own facial expressions. I didn’t even realize until a friend I made at 20 or 21 told me I could go into theater because I was so expressive with my face. That gave me a bit of a mini existential crisis. My face has been loudly communicating things to everyone all this time without my knowledge or consent? Wtf

      Yeah, faces do that. I asked mine to stop but it didn’t listen. So inconsiderate.

      I’m kinda like this, but I swing from being very readable, to having a poker face that even a professional poker player wouldn’t be able to crack. It’s not at all voluntary and seems to depend on the environment. If I’m super focused on something, I end up with a poker face frozen in a particular expression. It also seems like my face isn’t readable when I’m uncomfortable or annoyed (or maybe people can read it but don’t give a fuck about how they’re making me feel), but otherwise my face tends to be very readable.
