I do have some appreciation for the “poison Ivy is so into plants because she is socially isolated” within an autistic reading because it reflects my own experiences in a lot of ways. That being said, there has to be a balance- I like to see it as Ivy naturally feels a strong affinity for plants, but she also happens to find it hard to connect with and understand people.
The thing is, despite how much satisfaction and fulfillment she gets out of her plants- and I truly don’t think this should be diminished, they are a massive part of her and not a ‘replacement’ for people- she still yearns for that element of human connection because people just generally do.
But human connection isn’t natural for her, not like plants. Yet she still needs it. That can be a painful thing to admit- so Ivy doesn’t. She convinces herself that there is no part of her that is “human” and hence she doesn’t need human relationships. That the nature, plants, the green- those are ALL she is. And she uses that line of reasoning as a defense to protect herself from emotional vulnerability.
So essentially, my perspective is that while her trauma does not cause Ivy to care about plants, it does influence her to so singularly attribute her identity to them.
+ bonus points that Ivy uses her knowledge gleaned from cultivating and nurturing plants to approach human relationships and generally sees the world through this lens
Mostly I’m just projecting my own experiences as an autistic person with strong interests and problems connecting with others onto Ivy (because what else are favorite characters for)
Also the Neil gaiman interpretation is gross and stupid and I hate it so much!!!!!
okay one of my biggest poison ivy pet peeves is when plants are a metaphor. when poison ivy only cares about plants because they represent something human (like that one gross line in Neil Gaimans comic where the guy asks “why plants?” and Ivy’s like “well, if no man’s going to give you flowers, you have to grow them yourself”). there are definitely less misogynistic examples (usually, ivy survived some sort of traumatic social isolation and clung to plants as her friends) which is like. fine. but what if ivy just cared about plants because that’s who she is? what if some of it is nature, not nurture, because we don’t all start out as the same blank slates?
what if autistic coding was more than just coding? what if tons of people (autistic or not) just care about plants because they’re living things?? not because of male attention or trauma or medical experiments? what if plants actually matter in real life??? just a thought.

As someone who got raised by a bad mum and likes to overanalyse parent child relationships
Della is not a bad mother, she was actually a really good one by season 3
Shout out to Della for trying her best and figuring it out
#it was literally part of her character arc that she was learning how to be a mother for the first time#obviously she’s going to mess up some times#anyway I’m a massive Della defender

I did some experimenting with a vertical comic format! And I got a copy of The Eat Bang Kill Tour and absolutely loved it.
