something like. meredith and addison only being able to talk to each other really honestly about derek because they are the only ones who really get it. something like you can only really understand if you've gone through it - and they both have intimate knowledge. anyway

I think a thing that is frustrating about neurotypicals as someone with autism and auditory / language processing issues (yet to be explicitly diagnosed to my knowledge) is how little they understand neurological differences and disabilities in processing things like hearing and yet they feel like they understand it to a sufficient level.

Case in point, today at work one ofbmy coworkers got all mad and offended because I was "rude and disrespectful" because in the morning, while thinking about the things I needed to do and thought of an important question before I could start my question to ask my mentor, asked the question and she was talking and thus I interrupted her. Yes, rude now that I KNOW she was talking and so I apologize, but I really hate the implied intent or lack of caring put with the "autistic interruption" shit

Ignoring social cues and rules aside, I *literally* didn't realize / process she was talking. Of course, I'm not deaf or HoH so I can't say that because "How could I not hear her? She was speaking loud enough to know" and there is a HUGE difference between *hearing* and *processing* and so when they always give the advise of be more considerate / think before you speak or tell you the social rule to not interript cause its rude, it doesn't help like at all

Cause yes, I KNOW that and I DO think before I speak. I just *literally* didnt process her speech as speech and it was filtered as white noise.

Its like going into a busy and loud club and saying "dont speak if the guy two tables down is talking"

Like yeah, maybe I COULD hear that he is talking among the 50000 other people talking, but Im not processing him talking as distinct from the ambient noise around me.

I just want to thank everybody who gave me gifts both on tumblr & on discord, this has been a very good birthday! I honestly expected my 17th to be boring since in real life a lot of plans got cancelled because of money and this was the first birthday where I didn't have a party with family. However, the internet and also some things in real life helped to make things better despite me getting sick near the end of the day. I did plan to make a shitpost today but again like I said, I got sick and got very busy editing details on my carrd and pronouns page. Maybe tomorrow after school and getting some things done I'll post one depending on how I feel. Again thank you so much everyone :,)

If anyone wants to, for when I get better, spam my inbox with asks/requests. I'll get to them as soon as I can!

In November, the air temperature is finally beginning to drop, the humidity is becoming less, and less of an issue every day. George, who’s spent his entire life living in England, has done nothing but complain whenever the weather gets a tad too hot, even now after a year of living in Florida. Dream hasn’t minded though. It’s become a part of his ritual, to wake up and feed Patches, to walk through the house and make sure the curtains that face the south of the house are closed to keep the warm air outside and the cool air inside.

As someone whose friends haven't heard of his hyperfixations half the time,

SPEAK, MY SON

LMAO that post is abt typography and i have no idea how to communicate my thoughts on it. it's just. so cool. actually i'm gonna go through some fun facts even tho it's veryyyyy unlikely anyone would. idk gain smth from it but anyway !!!

ok so comic sans. we all know it,, probably the most infamous font out there. so one of the reasons it looks so bad was bc it was drawn with a computer mouse and not a tablet. you can see the wobbliness of the letters esp on the legs of the m and n, and at the top of the c:

so in the 90s/early 2000s, apple made its own version of comic sans called "chalkboard". this was actually drawn with a tablet, so it looks much better:

like look at that. it's night and day. still not a great font, but its at least tolerable.

ok so !! another font that u might be familiar with is futura !!

like the screenshot says, it's extremely geometric. Every letter is based off of a circle or a straight line. everything is so beautifully angular i love it sm. but it's kind of awkward to read bc this is a display font. ok if there is one (1) thing i want ppl to walk away from this post knowing is the difference between display and text fonts. futura's a bit of an in-between example, but it's generally best for display. a display font is exaggerated, bold, and eye-catching. like for shop signs, newspaper headers, and website titles. a text font is easy and pleasant to read at small sizes. some examples !!

this might be obvious to some, but i stilllll see this mistake all the time. even in big operations (cough avatar subtitles cough cough) people mistake a font for "looks good everywhere" when it's actually "looks good as a store sign". there isn't really one way to tell whether or not a font is for display, besides just... looking at it. shrink the font down, smaller than what it'll print as if you do print it. time how long it takes to read it against a basic font, like helvetica or arial. if it takes much more time to read whatever font you're testing, then yeah maybe not great. oh also pleaseeee use fontjoy.com to decide on a font set it's literally such a lifesaver.

ok there issss more but that's most of my fun facts w/o getting too technical ! ik typography is a bit of an unconventional hyfix but man it's so cool to me lol,, tysm for inviting me to infodump (even tho idk how coherent this was lmao ToT)

edit: wait i forgot to mention !!!! most of this info comes from linus boman on youtube plsssss check his channel out it's been feeding my graphic design spinterest for a month lmao
