In my experience music can help "reprogramming" our bodyminds, getting rid of harmful thought patterns and even give us access to information hidden in the subconsciousness.
Sometimes it's just a line in the lyrics, it doesn't have to be the meaning that the artist intended. It's about what your bodymind associates with it.
So to all the autistic people, who need time to process things, who mask and fawn, especially autistic women, who sometimes find themselves in situations where they feel obliged to do things, that make them feel uncomfortable, because you said "it's fine" before, this song is for you.
It's ok to change your mind. Consent can be revoked at any time.

@KaCi@autistics.life @the_noubliette@expressional.social @autistics@fedigroups.social I fully agree with what you said but all of what you describe requires communication. A lot of things can happen or can get much more complicated when they aren't said. Sometimes saying something can be already enough, i.e. when it's assumed that someone's feelings have changed or they are not aware of an issue. Like I felt XY in situation something, can we talk about it? It can be just fine to not do something one usually because of whatever reason.
