#but it isn’t that just the autism (?)

“She’s so sweet she’s always going out of her way to help others” quick someone give that girl all the love and safe space she deserves before being “sweet” (pathological people pleasing as a trauma response) destroys her and leaves behind a bitter empty shell of a person

Can we agree that the "Thats two things" line from Mike was autistic as shit

Headcanon that like normal not world threatening visions for Adaine are just kind of like absence seizures so occasionally she’ll just go really quiet and just stare off into the distance and the rest of the Bad Kids will try to like slow down and chill out so she’s not too disoriented when she comes back (if they’re somewhere really loud or chaotic she’s given them permission to like put some noise cancelling headphones on her or wrap her in Fabian’s blanket battle sheet)

You know… you have always been one of my most sensitive children. Always aware of what others need. Always trying to be helpful or offering a joke to lighten the mood. You so rarely put yourself first. I am proud of your sensitivity. But living to please others? I imagine it can be wearying at times. Painful, perhaps. So, I do not blame you for putting on armor lately.

LSTR-S2301 and the maintenance tunnel ARAR are best friends to me even though that Elster was only on sierpinski for a seemingly brief time, they’re bros who fuck around on the clock during work. I think Elster was probably more willing to put extra time in however she’s also very “okay you’ve given me a list of tasks I did them. They’re done and done well. That’s it, my time now.” Whereas I see Ara being more of a slacker (very valid of her) or at the very least just a bare minimum type of gal when it comes to work.

Idk I tend to imagine them fucking off in the middle of shifts to go find weird lonely corners of sierpinski to hang out in. They don’t even talk half the time but they love it.

in my head, kieran survived the o’driscoll kidnapping, but by the time he’d got back to shady belle after someone found him bleeding out in the street and took him to the doctor, the gang was gone, and he took the opportunity to escape the gang lifestyle, running off to strawberry and beginning work with the timber folks

years later, you can find him at pronghorn ranch in epilogue 1, lovingly tending to the horses in the barn when you go to scoop the manure, and he’s made an honest living for himself. and the o’driscolls are gone because sadie killed then all and he is finally safe and happy is anyone listening can anyone hear me

most ghostbusters fans are pretty chill, but some of you mischaracterize Ray as being only bubbly childlike and naive, and Egon just becomes Sheldon from big bang theory. like how do you receive significantly better autism rep from a fucking 80s movie than most modern day media, and choose to revert to stereotypes????

for new years I think we really should normalise treating your mutuals like actual people.

[the-cat-and-the-birdie]

just learned you can draw photos of yourself with your favorite characters. you can draw your ocs smooching canon characters if you want

it’s not against the law and there’s no cringe police that’s gonna come to your house and arrest you or anything

you can just hang out with your blorbos and literally be as self indulgent as you want, you can spend hours drawing or writing about yourself with them no one can stop you

really cool if true

[soullessjack]

idk i just think it’s a little weird that almost every character who gets the “innocent baby” / “little ray of sunshine” treatment usually ends up just having neurodivergent traits and actual negative traits in the show that nobody pays attention to. like idk man it just feels like diet infantilization to me and it’s a teeny weeny bit uncomfortable to see all the time

no you aren’t a little autistic for not wanting to make eye contact sometimes no you aren’t a little bipolar for having a mood swing no you aren’t a little adhd for bouncing your leg no you aren’t a little depressed for wanting to stay in bed no you aren’t a little schizophrenic for mistakingly hearing a voice no you aren’t a little ocd for wanting the class desks to be straight stop characterizing disorders by one symptom stop trying to lighten and romanticize disorders by applying a normal thing to do to a disorder that impacts peoples lives stop trying to water down these disorders so you can make it about you and so you can make a joke off of other people’s lives because you want to be funny
