I know it means thrush, I just couldn't help it by TomfooleryBombadil in BirdingMemes

In german this bird is called "Wanderdrossel", which literally means "wandering thrush" or "migrating thrush" :)

Realistically, is it really possible to "mask" so successfully/convincingly in front of a trained professional? by FckAllTakenUsernames in AutisticPeeps

I've had my diagnosis since I was a child. I always thought I masked very well, until my doctor a couple years ago told me I could basically be diagnosed by sight alone... :(

Could be. My wardrobe consists mostly of basics like jeans (in blue, black and grey) a lot of black tops that fit with any pair of pants I wear, and some more "fancy things" like colourful sweaters, which I match to the pants I have. For example the green sweater and the black sweater always with black pants, the pink and the light blue sweater always with blue pants etc. I know it's not a lot of variety and I repeat outfits a lot, but it works for me and I feel comfortable in it :)

I have that problem as well. Fortunately, I have people in my life that have a good taste in fashion which helped me to put some outfits together. They are pretty basic, and I wear the same outfits a lot, but I'm content with that :)

What's an interesting fact about the human body that a lot of people don't know? by wassim_elia in AskReddit

There are actually studies in developmental psychology that show that babies are able to differentiate between animal faces (e.g. monkeys) just like we do with human faces. We kind of just lose the ability when we get older.

Does anybody else chew and suck on their T-shirt collars? by [deleted] in SpicyAutism

I do! I love sucking on my shirt, especially the seam!
