pjo s2 has the opportunity to make such a good comment on ableism in gen z. like as someone who was in high school hearing the r slur or “sped” or “acoustic” used so casually in so many places, i would actually break down crying if they got matt sloan to call tyson like “sped” and then see annabeth absolutely wreck his shit. i’d cheer so hard. the heroes of this story are disabled, the point of the original series was to create neurodivergent representation for kids, and it feels so so so necessary.

#crunchyposts #pjo #pjotv #it’s necessary all the time i’m just reminded of this bc specifically sloan calls tyson the r slur in sea of monsters #and it hit me so hard upon reread like yeah that’s what it’s like being in school w kids HAHHAJAHAKJBAJHKGSJJHVDJJHBDJHB i’m losing it y’all #this show has such a wide market please i need to see less people using those fucking words #oh wow now i’m remembering how insecure i felt about being autistic in that school #awful. awful experience would not recommend and i’m hesitant to call myself disabled #my problems are not that big especially compared to people w intellectual disabilities #people who have worse social skills than me etc etc #i just need representation of a kid being a complete asshole in the way i’ve seen in real life #and then the hero of the story punching them in the face for it
