#@ctually@utistic

[a-polite-melody]

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate that the most popular tag I’m aware of for people who are autistic talking about autism to use is ��a/ctually a/utistic”? [without the slashes]

It’s a very Me thing, but like. It almost feels like a passive aggressive “I’m the actual autistic here” when the other person you’re talking to doesn’t happen to also use the tag.

I’m very aware that’s Not At All what anyone is using that tag for. And I’m very aware why that tag was necessary. But it’s one of those… I wish the tag was anything else, y’know? But it isn’t, so I deal by venting and don’t make it other people’s problem because I want to get a good grade in emotional control, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve lol
