The Awareness Ribbon for Autism is a widely recognized symbol used to promote autism awareness and support. Typically, it features a puzzle piece pattern in various shades of blue, reflecting the complexity and diversity of autism spectrum disorders. The puzzle piece design, adopted in 1963, represents the mysterious and complex nature of autism.

This ribbon is often displayed during Autism Awareness Month in April, as well as throughout the year on various products, social media profiles, and awareness campaigns. It serves to spark conversations about autism, promote understanding, and show solidarity with individuals on the spectrum and their families.

While the blue puzzle ribbon remains popular, some advocacy groups have adopted alternative symbols, such as the rainbow infinity symbol, to represent neurodiversity and move away from the puzzle piece imagery. Nonetheless, the blue ribbon continues to be a powerful tool for raising autism awareness globally.

Autistic gifts for adults cater to the unique preferences and needs of individuals on the autism spectrum. These thoughtful presents often focus on sensory experiences, special interests, or practical tools for daily life. Popular options include noise-canceling headphones, weighted blankets, fidget toys, and sensory-friendly clothing. Gifts related to specific interests or hobbies are also appreciated. Organizational tools, such as visual schedules or time management apps, can be helpful. Some adults may enjoy books about autism or by autistic authors. The key is to consider the individual's specific needs, sensitivities, and interests when selecting a gift.

Someone gifted me their X-Men OC so needless to say I've been having a category 5 autism event. Meet Ezra!

[mochinomnoms]

Ooo here’s an interesting thought for you. So you know how, in the interspecies romance, you mentioned how Jade and Floyd would still kinda ‘bully’ a potential partner? Can you imagine if that person were an overthinking type? Like the ‘mean’ interactions make them think that either of the tweels just do NOT like them.

Basically misunderstandings abound.

Floyd gifts them a tooth; are they next?? Jade gives a poisonous (but pretty/rare) mushroom; is this a threat??

Could also just be a person who has a difficult time interpreting social cues, or flirting.

But either way, the poor object of their interest starts avoiding them and is so confused by the mixed signals. So they go up to Azul or something and ask if they’ve made the respective tweel angry or something. Because they thought they were getting along???

Just a poor confused bean.

Anyway sorry that was long but I just thought it was an interesting concept. 😂

As someone whose autism severely impacted their understanding of social norms, I feel this on a deeply spiritual level. In the partner's defense, the twins are just generally intimidating and take delight in scaring their peers. They say the most out of pocket shit and it's hard to tell when they're being serious or joking (they also have a tad bit of the tism). Poor Azul would be so tired of having to deal with a potential eel mate asking him to call off his right/left-hand men, they don't have a contract with him anymore, so why are they threatening them with loose teeth and poisonous mushrooms?? Azul!! Make them stop!!!

(He briefly considers staying out of it. It would do them some good to suffer through their pining until they have the common sense to look up human dating and woo methods. But they are his friends that he actually cares quite deeply for his employees whose moods are affecting productivity, so he'll explain it to you, and then go give them a good wack in the head for being stupid.)

Floyd is the more likely of the two to not look up human courting and dating methods. He's more of the kind of guy that's hoping you will get what he means by vibe alone. Like that manifesting stuff Cater goes on about. You'll have to be particularly perceptive to notice that he squeezes you a bit softer, looks at you with hearts in his eyes a bit longer than more, and notice that he slips up and calls you by your name instead of Shrimpy; he's surprisingly subtle with his growing affections. Jade would have definitely research ahead of time, plus he's very perceptive of others and their emotions around him. He'll probably be able to tell that you're not getting his advances, but on the other hand, it would be so funny to see how long it takes for you to catch on. He'll make fun of you in the future on how you “strung along a poor eel's heart, waaahhhh!” while he pined after you with foraged and handmade gifts, classic merfolk courting! That, or you accidentally start dating/a friends-with-benefits situation, both of you misunderstanding the other's intentions. It would take some incredible denseness and misunderstanding on both your parts for that to happen, which is a lot easier than you think when it comes to Jade “Keep them Guessing” Leech. Truly, a man can be too confident with regard to love, please tell him this or else you'll spend at least four months in a relationship before realizing it.

[starfish-spencer]

I'm really disappointed that the Lassie and Jules subplot in Gus's Dad May Have Killed an Old Guy ended with Jules just... uninviting Lassie to her family Christmas celebrations because he was too awkward and anti-social.

Like, the entire point of her inviting him in the first place was so that he wouldn't be lonely on Christmas, and then HE ENDS UP ALONE ON CHRISTMAS ANYWAY?? When he couldn't socialize the way he was expected to (autism), Jules's first reaction was to not let him come over again.

The important thing here is that it's not even Christmas yet! The first time I saw the episode, I was waiting for something else to happen, for Jules to come up with a solution, but this scene here is just the end of the subplot. She lets him believe that he was "too cool" and that she was feeling jealous, which is still kind of uncomfortable. It also doesn't solve the problem of Lassie not having friends or family to spend the holidays with.

The thing that bugs me the most is that this seems so out of character for Jules. You're telling me that Juliet "gives cupcakes to all the new employees" O'Hara WOULDN'T care if Lassiter was left out? I just know that she would be doing EVERYTHING she could to make him stay and feel comfortable. She put so much effort into his birthday party, she remembered their work-iversary, I can't imagine she would be so embarrassed by him that she would give up on trying to make him feel included. If any of the other O'Haras made a comment or sly remark about his mannerisms, Juliet would shut them down with one stare.

I would have liked it if they had come up with another solution instead of just booting him (Like maybe Jules's nephews are playing with those little green army men toys and Lassie sits on the floor with them and helps them set up historically accurate battles. And they actually find it really cool).

Anyway, I just wanted to see Lassie getting adopted into the O'Hara family and not being alone during the holidays, since he's kind of like Juliet's brother anyway. Maybe the O'Hara family sits down to open presents and Lassie just stands off in the corner because obviously no one got him anything, right? But then Jules hands him a gift, and it is something perfect for him like a Clint Eastwood poster or the Grease soundtrack on vinyl. And he gives her a big hug while holding back tears. And it would still be a while before he meets Marlowe anyway, so maybe for the next few years, he goes over to the O'Haras for the holidays.

This subplot could have been so sweet and heartwarming, and there was a lot of missed potential. I'm not angry, but I think it was a strange writing choice. I know my girl Jules is better than this! :)

What do you think Leon smells like?

when he isn’t dirty, sweaty and covered in blood and guts?

hmm, he cares about his appearance and y’know he schedules minimum 1 hair appointment a month, so he would care about how he smells too.

and good lord, he would smell delicious.

resident evil 2 leon, lil puppy boy definitely got some fancy cologne from his ex girlfriend at the time, it was a christmas gift and he wore it until it ran out- the box was gone and the lettering and title was vague so he could never find the same one again. It wasn’t an intense one, he liked that it didn’t hit you in the face, it smelt kinda fresh, little citrusy.

resident evil 4 leon, he’s got more money in his pocket then he’s ever needed. he can drop a coin- he does. it’s not crazy but he has accumulated some fragrances, it’s more about how pricey these ones are, rather than having somewhat of a collection. these scents are more spicy, peppery, some cardamom, cinnamon and rum too. it’s homely feeling but expensive.

resident 6/vendetta etc. leon.. my delicious old man, he has been through a scent journey at this point okay, men and women falling head over heels for him mhm, he knows what works best, makes him feel best. it’s something simple now, not simple clean like his younger years, but classic, wood, sea salt, more musky, some lavender sometimes too. he still has a lot from his younger years he uses too so those spicier notes would pop up again on nights he felt called for it.

if anyone has read all of this holy hell, if this isn’t leon brain rot i don’t know what is, also is this a good time to say i have no knowledge on fragrances??? this is just autism autopilot

I Gift ye with some silly cross guild concepts:

• Buggy with autism and ADHD, with a special interest in explosives, weapons, chemistry, and who uses the circus performances as stimming.

• Mihawk who is Not Neurotypical At All being faced with the antithesis of his whole vibe and somehow being roped into other stims

• (Buggy absolutely makes a swing with silks, and they cuddle in is Often. Ritchie is a living weighted blanket AND HE PURRS)

• Crocodile walks into this not expecting to start a side hustle making stim toys but here we are.

• dadodile theory where Luffy shows up and suddenly oh the stim toy stock is sold out, neat :))

• Buggy getting carried like a kitten by his Big Boyfriends

• polyamorous fighting bc someone's hair oil smells too strong or this brand of soap is Icky or smth so very domestic and sweet and all three end up pausing bc Damn. They're pirates and yet fighting over rose vs lavender scents or what detergent is best.

• sometimes after hours when everyone is asleep, Buggy will do small performances and tries to teach some tricks to the other's. Mihawk offers gardening lessons, and Croc likes teaching them old games from Alabasta when he was a child. Results are.... mixed.

• Buggy oftentimes make azidoazide aside completely on purpose bc Big BOOM Go Brr.

• people think Croc and Hawk have the braincell, but secretly none of them do. They're all a special brand of Absolutely Unhinged.

• Mihawk has a bad tendency to just... bite his loved ones like a cat.

• Crocodile would sooner cut off his other hand than admit to being needy. (No, he totally doesn't just yank his victim of the hour into his lap and then hold them in place with his hook until he's got his cuddle fix, shut up-)

• Buggy is both very smart and very stupid. Bro is a chemist, a weapons maker, a dealer, runs numerous businesses, heads an information network, grew up on the Pirate king's ship with training from the best of the best, could probably stage a world wide coup d'etat if he tried, but still fights against the impulse to swallow a muggy ball Just Because. Smart of Brain, Dumb of Ass.

((You can probably tell Buggy is my favorite but shhhhh let the Guild cook- /hj))

Okay, no, these are all amazing. And don't worry because Buggy is my favorite too, I get it.

They're all just a trio of neurodivergent men who think they can rule the world but actually they're oversensitive and also pretty dumb sometimes. I love their poly relationship so damn much. It gives me life.

Trump Fight Fight Fight: Long Sleeve Shirts for the Dedicated Supporter

The "Trump Fight Fight Fight Long Sleeve" is a politically-charged piece of apparel that encapsulates the combative and controversial nature of former President Donald Trump's political style. This long-sleeved shirt is designed for supporters who resonate with Trump's confrontational approach to politics and his often-repeated calls to action.

Buy now:19.95$

The shirt typically features bold, eye-catching text proclaiming "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT" in large, uppercase letters. These words might be arranged in a stacked format or spread across the chest area, possibly in a font reminiscent of Trump's campaign materials. The color scheme likely incorporates patriotic hues - red, white, and blue - to evoke a sense of American nationalism that's central to Trump's political brand.

Trump's name or likeness may also be prominently displayed on the shirt. This could be in the form of his signature hairstyle silhouette, a stylized portrait, or simply his surname in the recognizable font used in his campaign logos. The overall design aims to be bold and unapologetic, mirroring the personality traits that Trump's supporters often admire.

Buy now

The long-sleeve format of this shirt makes it suitable for cooler weather, allowing supporters to display their political allegiance year-round. The sleeves might feature additional design elements, such as stripes reminiscent of the American flag or repeated slogans running down the arms.

It's important to note that this type of apparel is inherently divisive. For Trump supporters, wearing this shirt is a way to proudly display their political beliefs and show ongoing support for the former president's confrontational style. They may see it as a call to action, encouraging like-minded individuals to continue "fighting" for their political ideals even when Trump is not in office.

Buy now

However, for those who oppose Trump's politics, such a shirt could be seen as provocative or offensive. The repeated use of "fight" could be interpreted as an incitement to conflict or a refusal to accept political outcomes, especially in light of controversies surrounding the 2020 election and the events of January 6th, 2021.

The "Trump Fight Fight Fight Long Sleeve" is more than just a piece of clothing; it's a statement piece that reflects the deep political divisions in contemporary American society. Wearers of this shirt are likely to attract attention, both positive and negative, depending on the political leanings of those around them.

It's part of a broader trend of political merchandise that has become increasingly popular and visible in recent years, turning everyday clothing items into walking billboards for political ideologies.

In essence, the "Trump Fight Fight Fight Long Sleeve" is a garment that embodies the confrontational, unyielding spirit that Trump cultivated during his political career. It serves as both a rallying cry for his supporters and a reflection of the intense polarization in current American politics.

willry headcanons…?

uhh in general?

autism to autism communication... henry's like constantly overstimulated and william is usually understimulated. but they like to sit in dark and quiet rooms together when they're both close to overstimulation :] (i actually have an ask about this in my inbox i just haven't answered yet)

i think neither of them are very affectionate with their words. like there's the occasional pet name but neither of them really says "i love you" other than rare occasions. usually when they're drunk as hell. it's mostly shown through actions.

henry is much more stoic than william is. he expresses love with the little things - gifts, acts of service, etc. whereas william is a big fan of expressing it with physical touch and quality time :3 he can't keep his hands off henry!

it's very important that, despite william having a pretty big height advantage, henry is still able to pick him up and pin him down :) (very important to william at least... teehee...)

they can't really do pda considering the time period, and neither of them is particularly into it, but william enjoys doing it solely to bother henry. especially in the suits💖

william doesn't like pickles. henry eats the pickles. (bonus: michael inherited the Pickle Enjoyer trait from henry)

both of them are off the shits crazy, but in comparison to william, henry almost looks reasonable! and often has to reign william back in. many times.

standard headcanon that everyone knows at this point but henry is the antisocial recluse and william's the one getting them business deals and being chatty with everyone. though when henry IS talking to other people william gets jealous about it

#1 favorite activity of all old men they sit on the porch together watch the sunset and smoke and drink

henry indulges william's love for physical contact when they're alone (hence the frequent cuddling, they're on each other at all times) just bro things of course... all homies do this it's not gay guys☝️🗣️🗣️🗣️

at this point, they may as well be raising their families together with how close they are. their kids are almost always around each other ^_^

[sunnywalnut]

One thing I really hate about the "autism is my super power" archetype is that it REALLY makes me feel inadequate when people compare me to these guys.

Like Sheldon Cooper or the guy from The Good Doctor. They're all successful, cishet white men. They've been through college at a young age, and sure. I was gifted in certain classes. But in others? I couldn't concentrate. It was too loud. Or too many people. Or too bright. Or too whatever.

My "superpower" wasn't math or history. It was memorizing dog breeds and calling them out on the street. Or finishing two novels in one day.

But it wasn't recognized as a superpower.

It was "recognized" as me correcting people on the average lifespan of whatever dog I had at the time. Or the things that the breed usually liked versus what somebody else thought they did. Or me sneaking glimpses of my book during class, and reading underneath my desk. It was me ignoring my elementary teacher when she called us for rug time because I was finishing the chapter of my story and couldn't put it down as easily.

And sure. They encouraged my reading. And I've gotten into a couple advanced classes that I otherwise wouldn't have been in.

But in the others I was still struggling.

I had one thing going for me and that one thing wasn't enough to propel me five grades ahead like it "should have."

I was the smart kid. Because I could memorize formulas and definitions in science and math class. Everyone was in awe of my low A's and high B's. But I wasn't a prodigy.

Just because I could memorize things didn't mean it was easy to learn.

Learning was the hard part.

And that's what nobody got.

How could I be struggling, if all this time I was getting near perfect scores?

Even after my diagnosis. I never was allowed out of class to take tests. Even when allergy season hit and I bombed a test because the boy behind me was sniffling up a ruckus. I was told I could retake it. To study next time and do better.

I never really learned how to study.

Studying was overwhelming. So I didn't do it. Nobody cared.

After all. I was getting near perfect scores.

Homework took hours. Four of them, to be exact. I never knew why. It was always so much easier in class.

But now I know it was because I have ADHD. And I was burnt out.

So I barely had free time after school.

Except for art.

Art was always there for me. I could always take the time to do something. And it was easier to put down, even if it was incomplete. Because I knew I could go back to it. I didn't have to pull out and reconstruct everything again, like a puzzle. I could go right back to where I started. And that was wonderful.

So I became good at it.

I became great.

Everyone loved it. The praise, the encouragement, the delight was almost too much to bear. I learned to crave it.

And yet.

Everyone was still surprised.

When I told them I wanted to be an artist.

Because apparently.

Your "superpower" is only good if it makes you money.

And who would invest in art?

Instead of being a doctor?

The answer is me.

It's always me.

I'm the mediocre autistic person with a difficult niche.

I don't have a superpower. Or a college degree. Or baby pictures of me playing the violin.

But I'm autistic.

Isn't that enough?

Where are the people like me in the media?

I can go outside and find at least three different Neurodiverse people like me in my town. But nearly NONE in the media.

Why is that?

Do we not exist to you?

Or are we only tolerable when we've done something "productive"?

I don't have a superpower.

But that shouldn't make me less than.

I don't know why it does.

[mostlyvoid-partiallyflowers]

Okay I just speedran The Sunshine Court in like 12 hours. I will be rereading it soonly and giving more coherent thoughts but here’s my main takeaways:

- Thought #1: Holy fuck holy fuck holy fuck this book exists. I am on the floor I’m so fucking excited.

Spoilers below the cut

- I absolutely love that we get both Jean and Jeremy POVs. It’s great especially because Jean is an oblivious and traumatized and if we just see things through his eyes we would never get to see Jeremy PINING like an absolute icon. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, it’s about the pining, the waiting, the yearning. I’m simple man, I like my books gay, angsty, and with tension you could cut with a knife. This delivers on all accounts.

- I love getting to see the end of tkm from Jean’s perspective. Getting to see him watch the Foxes v Ravens game was incredible. I’m a very big fan.

- Renee and Jean time! Renee giving Jean her cross necklace. I’m in tears, I’m dead, I’m on the floor. It’s not the right time for us 😭. Excuse me? I’m unwell.

- Kevin Day, queen of my heart! Getting to see how someone other than Neil canonically sees Kevin is an absolute treat for me. Jean’s weakness for beautiful men has become known. Me too Jean, me too.

- Jeremy, light of my life, I can’t believe you’re rich. At least your family sucks because I don’t think I could take it if your family was wealthy and nice.

- Jeremy + Jean meeting for the first time. Jeremy trying and failing to play with a yo-yo. I’d die for you. They are ADHD 🤝 Autism solidarity me thinks.

- Montana has a pro Exy team which is not at all plausible but I’ll let it slide because one Montana mention for the win and two the team is called the Rustics which is absolutely what we’d call a pro sports team if we had one. The only reason Montanan’s at large would commit to indoor lacrosse is that Kayleigh Day was Irish and so solidarity.

- Laila and Cat, my beloveds. The description of their apartment has me yearning for the same. They have a bay window with a window seat okay. That’s like in my top three desires for a home.

- Carboard cutout dog with a classic Nora pet name. I’ll love Mister B forever. I love how Jeremy keeps moving him around. I love how Jean hates it.

- Trans characters! Poly characters! Nonbinary characters! Nora, my birthday has come a little late but damn this was a gift!

- I am absolutely pronouncing Jean wrong in my head probably 70% of the time.

- I’m so fucking angry at the Ravens. My blood is boiling and I want to cry. Jean deserved better, Kevin deserved better, Riko deserved better. All the Ravens deserved better. I want to put Tetsugi Moriyama into a blender and feed him to the crows.

- Jean was 16. I’m absolutely incandescent with rage.

- Jeremy is so patient with Jean and I will forever love him for that.

- This book was a lot shorter time frame than I was expecting, mainly because I keep forgetting there’s going to be another one.

- The food control but is driving me crazy. It makes me so fucking mad. Let my boy eat. I want him to be happy.

- Jeremy has seen Jean looking 👀 ummmmmm hello? “More exclusively than you do, I think.” I’m on the floor.

- Laila buying Jean a sex toy?!? Oh my god. What would she even get him? I feel like he deserves a vibrating cock ring or something fun like that. That way service top™️ Jeremy Knox can use it on him when they finally get together.

- I love seeing Neil from Jean’s perspective. It’s funny how different he is from my perspective and Jean’s/everyone else’s. I’ve spent so much time thinking about him from Andrew’s pov that it’s weird seeing him through anyone else’s. Everyone is like this scrappy irritating son of bitch is gonna get what’s coming to him, and Andrew is like, well I can’t not fuck him.

- The second Jean mentions Drake to Neil. And then Neil immediately calls a hit out on Gr@yson. Neil, you will always be famous to me.

- Jean-Yves! I hope he starts using his full name again at some point.

- Elodie :(((((( I can imagine what Jean’s going through and I am so afraid for him. If he keeps pushing all these feelings down he’s going to break sooner or later, but probably sooner.

- Jeremy’s unconditional support of Jean has my whole heart. Jean has friends now. I’m crying.

hello twin peaks fandom. i just finished the og 2 seasons and for the later half of season 2 i put live reactions in my notes app. here are the highlights <3 (lmk if u want the full version it’s so much longer)

‼��spoiler warning‼️ ALSO if you read me saying ‘evil cooper’ i am talking about windom earle. i did not know there would be a literal evil cooper. at the end of the reactions ‘evil cooper #2’ is referring to cooper’s doppelgänger <3 also also!! the double return means it’s a new collection of notes that i wrote down in the same moment if that makes sense? i wanted to do screenshots instead of the actual text but alas i can only upload ten </3

- "psychological evaluation" he already has an autism diagnosis leave bro alone

- ok hang on. if josie dies and harry couldn't protect her. then. parallels with caroline dying and cooper couldn't protect her. Hm :3 (update! david lynch the man that you are.)
