    It is a learnable skill, not easy, but doable with a healthy dash of hyperfixation. Expressions, micro-expressions, posture, tone etc. You can even end up better at it than a normie. Doesn’t make it fun though.

      I read this the other way. I can immediately read the room when I walk in, that’s why I don’t want to go anywhere.

      I’m sure there are bomb squad technicians who are happy on the job, but even they would hasten to agree it is work.
