I feel so bad whenever someone mentions that their favourite autistic rep is like. Sam from atypical or sheldon from the Big Bang theory. we need to get you some autistic characters who aren’t treated like shit by their friends STAT
#the truest repairman posts#I used to love tbbt and sheldon so much when I was younger#It did so much irreparable damage to my self esteem because I grew to think that the way his friends treated him was how#I deserved to be treated#And honestly I could write paragraphs about how atypical is terrible as autistic rep#Again comma the representation itself isn’t really that bad it’s more the way they portray acceptable relationships#No autistic person should ever have their partner reward them for not talking about their special interest..#That’s not someone who actually likes you as a person behaviour#Autism
