[image id: a greyish watercolour background. in black line art, reminiscent of lino prints, a girl with a rabbit head with two earrings and an eyebrow piercing, stares lovingly at the zoot in her hand producing a heart shaped cloud of smoke. she wears a crystal necklace, underwear with a cute heart, and harlequin checked socks with frills. her heart shaped nips and navel are pierced, and she has a cute chubby build. she sits cross legged, and in the top left block capitals read ‘TRANS SELF LOVE IS RADICAL’. end image id]

The way most autism literature describes "literal interpretation" is often not at all similar to how I experience it. Teenage me even thought I couldn't be autistic because I've always been able to learn metaphors easily.

In fact, I love wordplay of all kinds. Teenage me was fascinated to learn all the types of figurative language there are in poetry and literature.

But paperwork and questionnaires are hard, because there's so much they don't state clearly. Or they don't leave room for enough nuance.

"List all the jobs you've had, with start and end dates." What if I don't remember the exact day or month? Is the year enough?

"Have you been suffering from blurred vision?" Well, if I take off my glasses the whole world is blurred, but I'm fairly sure that's not what the intake form at the optometrist is asking.

Or the infamous (and infuriatingly stereotypical) "Would you rather go to a library or a party?" What sort of party? Where? Who's there? I work at a library. Am I currently at the library for work or pleasure? Does it have a good collection?
