My mom and her husband were checking out a flat and the real estate agent had their fly open. After that they'd refer to her as "the fly-open" and remind each other of that person every now and then. I wasn't there yet I remember the case. So I give you second generation memory of an awkward person!
That object, my friend, is me.
I find it easier to make friends with people that are also on the spectrum and then other stuff comes on top of it, rather than trying to find friends through a shared interest and then trying to adjust to normies strange way of being 😅 (although it seems that many of my friends that I made through a shared interest in the first place later turned out to be on the spectrum...)

Same here, used to happen when I'd have a big firght with my SO or parent who wouldn't understand what's going on and tried to push me into solving the situation rather than give space. But definitely difficulty speaking is an indicator of emotional distress/overwhelm for me and dissociation / freezing follows when the distress worsens. I find writing an easier way of communicating difficult emotions and thoughts and i've even thought about learning sign language to help with these situations.
Here's the traditional "mustikkakukko" aka "rättänä" recipe
Kukko's are foods from eastern Finland / Karelia that are baked inside the crust. Kalakukko is basically rye bread with fish inside and lanttukukko with rutabaga and meat. Vegan version of lanttukukko is made with seitan and tastes great!
While making Karelian pies you can also check out this "sultsina" recipe, they use basically the same dough and filling
I hope this is not Finland like the name Sisu would suggest as it's very much forbidden to make any live fires at the moment - wildfire warning is set for the whole country. People are ignoring the warnings and starting forests fires with careless campfires, cigarette butts and such. :(
Composting outhouse with styrofoam seat is actually really nice :D especially if it's used enough to keep the composting going, then when it's really cold outside one may experience the joy of steamy composting shit warming up your butt while going on your business. Not too bad even in the Finnish winter. Cold plastic seat in the outhouse is the worst.
Finland

Or as the badger would say, mushroom mushroom!
This is what my psychiatrist kinda told me between the lines when I told them I suspect AuDHD. I would like to * know *, just to have an explanation to some things ADHD diagnosis alone doesn't explain. But the autism diagnosis might cause more harm than good - as I don't have severe problems related to those traits, so it would be unlikely to get any help but for example might encounter discrimination in health care etc...
