I fucking LOVE when people u start texting organically at a new job suddenly fall tf off when they smell the tism or whatever the fuck social poison I assidentally threw into the atmosphere this fucking time.

I wasn't even TRYIN. I was like 'u try too hard, don't try too hard it'll be organic' she seems to think you're cool already, don't try hard. Fuckin NOPE. That metaphorical garage door came tf down and they are following the script I have seen EVERY GODDAMN TIME.

I tried to be nonchalant and not give a fuck and go into a job to 'not make friends' but when that door came down I was just at a fuckin loss.

I have autism and I'm touch repulsed.

My sense of touch is super sensitive. (Even though I have a pretty high pain tolerance, idk.) I base all my clothing choices first and foremost on how it feels against my skin.

Human touch is... awful. Skin to skin is even worse. If it's one of "my people," I can tolerate it. They now know that I prefer not to hug, and they wait for me to offer, or in rare cases, ask for one.

Crowds? I take anxiety meds and actively dissociate. Handshakes? Dissociate. People touch me without permission? Try not to punch them.

My family was fairly tactile growing up. They loved tickling. I would literally collapse on the floor crying. It was too much; it didn't feel like fun or whatever it is that people like about tickling. It felt more like pain.

I've tried explaining what it's like to people who are not touch repulsed. People on here will probably get it better.

Let's see... touching people makes me want to claw my skin off (it's somehow even worse if there's skin contact). Even when it feels less extreme, my skin is still crawling. I am constantly aware of every part of me that is touching someone else. It's too much, and then I get agitated on top of it.

Being touch repulsed with autism probably has a lot to do with me being asexual. I'm fine reading about sex (sometimes I even enjoy smut), I'm pretty uncomfortable watching sex in media, but the idea of ME touching another person, let alone naked... gross. Just gross.

I want to fall in love, Desperately, hopelessly, recklessly in love. I want to connect with someone on a level only we understand. I want my autism and asexuality to be points of celebration that draw us deeper into love. I wanted to be seen and wanted for me in a world that hates Black girls. I want something I fear I can never have.

Broflovski's brothers as melanie martinez songs from k-12 (based on lyrics)

Kyle Broflovski — Class fight.

• the entire kyle/heidi/cartman arc was

kyle : cry baby.

Cartman: Kelly

heidi: brandon.

• cry baby even called kelly "fat ass",lmao

Ike broflovski ("miss teacher bangs a boy" )— Teacher's Pet.

• literally is this song is the interaction between Ike and his creepy teacher, from Kyle's point of view.

• the final verse of the song, would be Ike realizing what his teacher did to him

can i have ONE PERSONALITY TRAIT without it being linked to my adhd?

They even portray the victims and perpetrators the other way around.

Its usually the well in school, liked by teachers, admirable smart ones who are the bullies and the fat, hard time talking to people, ones with bad backgrounds/homelifes that struggle in school who are bullied

Specially if they're poor and/or neurodivergent

no piece of teen media has ever accurately depicted the quiet psychological warfare of bullying. bullies on TV are always dumb brutes and not the evil geniuses of emotional manipulation that they are in real life. being given a wedgie and having your lunch money stolen is nothing in comparison to a classmate quietly creating a taboo against speaking to you that they intend to enforce against all the other kids. it’s nothing like continuous cutting comments from people you thought were being nice to you. that way that the work of one kid can make you feel like every person on earth silently hates you and that you are dirty, disgusting, worthless, creepy and useless. that you can have friends but many of them will not speak to you at school for fear of the social consequences on their end. how that damage lasts in any social setting for the rest of your life

When you’re a neurodivergent, it’s late, your meds are out of your system, and you’ve been avoiding a meltdown all day.. but now it’s time to talk.

“I don't know what I even said. I hope that it is something I won't regret.”

On some days I want to slam my head into the wall and wake up. When does this nightmare end?

[megapocalypse]

I think Shen Yuan's reluctance to accept his own feelings and emotions is the crux of why he unintentionally hurt LBH, or at least I think it's allegorical for something similar. He's a neurodivergent 20 something year old who's in the closet and represses his emotions, he's definitely not a guy to be trusted by words but rather action.

When he doesn't want to come to terms with something he either denies it, doesn't think about it, or pretends it's because of something else.

(if we wanna take this further off tangent onto an analysis of depression: I relate to these feelings quite a bit. Mental health issues are a work in progress within society, and when you feel that way you expect there's supposed to be a "reason" for feeling that way.

You have a good life, a good family and home, so why are you feeling this way? Why aren't you happy? Why do you feel different? You don't want to be different.

Shen Yuan could be feeling this way, but he wouldn't say it, or think about it, because even if he is, he doesn't want to be so he just won't be.)

Oh he's depressed? No he isn't. He's gay for Binghe? Nope, he's as straight as an arrow he just appreciates Binghe's dick from time to time like a normal heterosexual male. He's crying? No see it's just the sun in his eyes or the pain he felt earlier. His balls hurt looking at Binghe? Oh man it must be because of the cold room or the fear.

Oh he keeps dying? (Crickets)

Nobody wants to be different. Shen Qingqiu wants to be normal and he'll tell you he's normal. But he's not normal. That guy's a fucking weirdo.

Because he refuses to acknowledge his own feelings and depersonalizes, he in turn fails to acknowledge his own surroundings and his effect on people.

The transmigration aspect is taking the allegorical to the literal, he sees people and his surroundings as characters, through the story he learns not only of the effect he has on these "characters" who are now real people in his eyes, but this also coincides with him coming to terms with his own hang ups, his feelings, and his sexuality.

Because of his own lack of acknowledgement towards his own feelings and the way he evades those emotions, he hurts Binghe in the process. It's only when he learns to acknowledge the change he caused within Binghe and his feelings he had for Binghe, that's when they can finally mend their relationship.

Anyway both of them are deranged but they're deranged together 💞. They're both so fucked but fucked enough to the point that the mess tangles up in odd places and weirdly enough those pieces just end up fitting.

See, the strange and almost voyeuristic dynamic they play up where the crybaby disciple gets himself lightly scolded and comforted by his teachermommy is healthy for them. In a very strange and fucked up Freudian way.

And you need to understand, the uncomfortable milf and little baby roleplay they do in public is, in fact, very productive for their relationship and it's vital everybody and their grandmother is watching them, see, it's very therapeutic actually

Wait where are you going

[thoughtspeaker]

Sometimes the only nonverbal moments are during moments of extreme stress or panic(and believe me, I've had plenty of those moments, having been known as the crybaby kid way back in elementary), where even when I wanted to say something, or even try to explain why I was upset, all I could do was hyperventilate, cry, and wait it out.

I've gotten better with it over time, but it really wasn't fun, going to school and crying basically daily.

And hey, I don't speak for even CLOSE to everyone whose autistic. I'm just saying how my own experience with it has been! I just wish I'd known sooner honestly...

When my mum looked into the possibility of me being autistic when I was a kid, the information she could find said I would have to be nonverbal and unable to read.

While it's true that some autistic people are nonverbal some or all of the time, or may struggle with reading or be dyslexic, neither of those are a requirement to be autistic.

Every autistic person is different.

(I'm pretty sure I was hyperlexic.)

[ndcultureis]

Neurodivergent culture is having less strong emotions than other people and being told to “let it all out” or “open yourself up to people” when you don’t need to, because that’s just how your emotions are, you’re not purposefully hiding them or anything. Being told “that’s so sad I could never live like that” when you tell people you experience most emotions in a less strong way.

Alternately, it’s also having more strong emotions then other people and being told to “control yourself” or “stop acting weird” for crying, laughing, etc., which are normal human experiences. Being told “you’re such a crybaby” for having high empathy for little things like bugs + plants, or that you look weird bc you smile too big/much.

TOH fandom feels this need to 'stick it' to other kids shows and show them how TOH 'did it correctly' but they don't understand what shows like Amphibia's SVTFOE and SU etc etc were going for. And the whole 'the show was cancelled excuse' drives me freaking insane! I grew up watching Spectacular spider man, x men evolution and GLtas and those shows got screwed over so badly- but they used their time efficiently to establish stories and characters etc so no you can absolutely can give everyone in your cast good character and relationship development establish important plot points and elements and villains within a short amount of time.

SVTFOE went through awful seasonal rot yes but it knew how to balance highschool drama with adventures amazingly (also it's mix of random xd humor and dark comedy was done a lot better imo) Amphibia despite its flaws is a very well done fantasy story (and has some great diversity in it and more subtle allegorical stuff surrounding being a foreigner and oppression- it's not the most deep show ever but it absolutely has depth) and im gonna say it Steven Universe while not a masterpiece by any means (it does share most of TOH's flaws) is just objectively better than TOH. Especially when it comes to diversity! More diverse body types, more diverse personalities (not everyone is lovably dorky- steven is a crybaby soft boy who matures into a charismatic leader, amethyst is a rambunctious tough bruiser, pearl is an intellectual insecure knight whose lost her cause and garnet is a stoic cool leader etc) and has jewish and south east asian rep and while no one talks about it Amethyst is good disabled rep (she's got the alien equivalent of dwarfism, the alien equivalent of a developmental disability and she has an arc surrounding how she views these aspects of herself) it handles mental illness very well and yet it has this horrible reputation as being super racist and inappropriate to show to kids- which is an opinion people are allowed to have about this show especially if they are black or poc or whatever- I'm not gonna call their opinions BS there are some good points they make about the whole 'angry black woman' stereotype but as a Puerto Rican girl with autism wasn't allowed to make any mildly negative comments about TOH and how it handled neurodivergence or how I didn't even register Luz as afro latina without fans saying I was full of shit and just completely media illiterate- the human zoo in su was depicted as bad but made one or two off color jokes and therefore the show is irredeemably evil- okay then but now you can't fucking harass me over saying TOH had some instances where the disabled rep fell apart a bit (i wouldn't even say that the show is over all ableist or godawful it just had moments that could've been handled better) but um no I'm not allowed to say that apparently- if you get to call my complaints bullshit because your a 'queer poc' then i as another queer poc gets to complain about the show you think is untouchable (i won't cause that's really mean and you have legitimate points) the logic this fandom uses to justify being an asshole to others drives me up a wall. SVTFOE handled revisionist history and colonialism better. Steven Universe had actual fucking diversity. Amphibia had actual layers and complexity that gets totally ignored. But no all shows have to have super blunt representation, and pretty art styles with flashy animation and we must shame all people who have even the most tame criticisms of TOH. The owl house isn't a horrible show but it has its flaws and people who complain about them bring up valid points and since some of you seem so up in arms needing bringing up race guess what? White people also get to call out TOH's flaws. So many kids shows get disregarded as having no depth or being stupid and I hate that TOH fandom also gets in on that nonsense.

Your show is cool we get it now stop fucking putting other kids media down. I'm not gonna say you should be thanking Steven universe or adventure time or gravity falls for laying down the groundwork so TOH can exist you get to criticize these shows but maybe don't get shocked and call everyone who says something you dislike media illiterate and say our complaints are BS? Cause we can easily say the same to you-by your logic I can say all your complaints are full of shit and harass you over liking the collector because of how he treated king, by your logic I get to call you racist and homophobic etc - which we can agree is a bullshit thing to say right? And also it's just mean. You can complain that Steven Universe getting cancelled isn't an excuse for its shit writing in some episodes (I agree with that) just also be aware that Im holding toh to that same standard. You can complain that SVTFOE had an ending you hate because of how ooc and pointless so much of it was- agreed but I get to say the same shit about toh

TOH is not immune to the criticisms you lob at other shows and screaming media iliteracy at the top of your lungs doesn't shut down arguments as well as you think it does

hello! congrats on 50 followers!

#9 from your 20 questions game? as a queer disabled regressor i love hearing other people’s experiences!

~ @littletism 🎀

Eeee hello hi! ^^ Thank you for your question I'm so so excited to answer! ૮ ᴖﻌᴖა

The question is:

"If you have other marginalized identities (lgbtq+, neurodivergent, poc, ect...) how do they figure into your regression?"

And my answer is...

It incorporates into my regression in a lot of ways!! X)

I know you all don't know a lot about me so this is sort of a deeper dive into me along with being a fun lil game! :] So strap in its a bit of a long one x)

I'm a person of color, I'm in the lgbtq+ community (not straight and my gender identity doesn't align with my assigned sex at birth), I have autism and adhd AND on top of that I have other mental health/physical health problems that can take a huge toll on me too! :")

Regression isn't always sunshine and rainbows for sure. I come from a very troubled background, my regression comes from a place to heal that child that was hurt from that time. To give me back what I lost as a child or to give me what I never had.

I'm a trans guy and I'm proud, but online I get really finicky about it because I'm always scared that no one will respect it (or my pronouns) because I'm a hyperfem trans guy so I try to hide my gender/sex a lot which is something I'm working on ૮ ◞ ﻌ ◟ ა

On top of that with the mental health problems I have, they make me incredibly sensitive and extremely clingy no matter what age I regress to. I have chronic back and joint pain which makes it hard to do a lot of the "typical" regressor things and sometimes it can put a damper on how I feel about myself as a little too (╥ᆺ╥；)

This all translates to a very big crybaby little, who seems like nothing will satisfy them, very high maintenance along with the constant energy just MOVING!!! I'm not a skinny person either and my feelings get so confused too :< "why don't I look like that person? I want to sit criss-crossed too!! Wait I don't want to be a little prince I wanna be a princess!! Princesses are cute!! Oh I hope I'm not being too much...I'm too much...Oh but my cg loves me still!!" Most of the time when I'm small, my Pronouns change too because in my little brain the feminine girly stuff feels way better than all the little boy stuff!! It's a really hard thing to navigate but I'm happy the people around me are open minded and accepting of that 🩷

With all the trauma I've experienced certain words and actions can trigger me even easier :"] it can be a lot for a lil guy with anxiety. Not to mention that my regression doesn't look anything like my childhood (I'm Latin-Hispanic) so sometimes it feels like it's just a game of pretend or like I'm dressing up as a white person so that I can fit in with the "rest of the kids" ૮ ◞ ﻌ ◟;;;��� (I, of course, mean no offense to anyone)

Thoughts and feelings are fast and troublesome.

But it's not all that bad either!!

With the big thoughts come even bigger hugs and kisses! With the back/joint pain comes back rubs and tickles (With consent of course🩷) and soft pillows n plushies to rest on!! When I feel like stimming I (very luckily) have a cg who's willing to rock me n do all the stimmy things with me! ૮( ˃ ꒳ ˂)ა He's always willing to work around the stuff I like and don't like and knows what food is safe and not safe :3

I feel that because I'm so different a whole other world gets unlocked through my regression!! I want to experience so much and rewrite the story that little me had to live through. I want to bring comfort to those who don't exactly have any guidance or the means for said comfort.

My regression is different from most but also valid and very common! I love this community and I love that it's been here for me for my hardest times 🩷 I'd love to be an older figure in the community (since I'm so grown up now!! I grew from 13 to almost 21 in the blink of a eye!!) that guides the new generation one step at a time :] There's so much more that I can say about my regression but this is getting long and I think I've covered a good amount of it ૮ ᴖﻌᴖა

Thank you so much @littletism for joining the game and asking me this question!! ૮ ᴖﻌᴖა (also I love your blog its so so cute and it'd be so cool if we could be friends maybe ८,,◐⩊◐,,ა /nf)

Anywho until next time!!

(silly vent I guess)

Do you ever get blamed for the little things you can’t control? Do you ever get called a “narcissistic 2 year old” for the tiny behaviors and things that you do that others who “claim they know how a neurodivergent acts and can usually handle their unusual actions” dislike?

Do you ever get called rude and utterly annoying all because the person you have to deal with is overstimulating you to the point of where you feel like you must scream and run away?

and if you ever try to explain it to them as nice and polite as you can to the misunderstood neurotypical, do they also tell you that you’re “victimizing yourself” and that “you’re lying about not remembering anything bad or negative that you’ve done to us”?

AND! When you try to tell them that you’re attempting to change your ways even though the things that they want you to change are the little issues and tendencies you can’t control, do they just ignore you and say you’re lying once again and that you’ll “never change” and all you do about situations like these is just “act like a whiny 2 year old who knows nothing”?

shut up. just because I don’t happen to be as mature as you and as mentally stable doesn’t mean I’m just a helpless crybaby who “always needs someone by their side”. I get it, you’re trying to help me see my wrongs, and make me change my ways, but all the things you dislike about me are just things that come with my autism and anxiety. you’re not proving a point, you’re just being an ignorant asshole.

[cutiecandychopper]

Something I’m passionate about is AUDHD Luffy (meaning he’s autistic with ADHD) just like I am! So I’m gonna jot down some thoughts I have in regards as to why!

Let’s start underneath this read more!

Remember that being neurodivergent is a spectrum! My experience as an autistic woman with adhd won’t be the exact same as another person with the same conditions!

Luffy tends to hyperfocus on tasks he finds rewarding. This is pretty common in people with ADHD inattentive type. We’ve seen him straight up take a nap in the middle of the road before getting up to finish kicking someone’s ass

Only remembering details or names if they’re important to him

He can be seen masking throughout the series. Probably to escape being called a “crybaby” as a child.

His way to motivate or cheer other people up is unconventional. Certain emotions from others like crying make him uncomfortable. Probably reminds him of being teased for not regulating his emotions “normally” as a child.

Can be seen doing different stims throughout the series. Stims can be anything for a ND person, not just arm flapping as portrayed in popular media.

Contrary to stereotypes not all autistic people are “emotionless.” Plenty of us get overly excited or enthusiastic around others.

Luffy is incredibly blunt and usually gets shit for it. This happened to me all the time growing up and I’d never understand how I wasn’t being “tactful.”

Luffy tends to take stuff literally such as the concept of bananawani

He has his comfort foods and gets upset when he doesn’t have them. Meat is an obvious example.

He values certain senses over others. It’s clear he loves what I call “mouth feel” or having something in your mouth to chew on and keep your attention.

Has safe clothing items he likes to wear over and over. I completely relate to his hatred of close toed shoes and wanting to wear baggy clothes all the time.

The hat is a comfort object

Has unusual reactions to pain and body temperature compared to others. Being rubber helps with that though

Cannot process sarcasm to save his life

Is impulsive and kind of assumed everyone can read his mind when it comes to how he’s going to approach a problem and solve it

That’s just some observations I have for now! Some other time I’ll add my headcanons onto this post of stuff I think he would do but we don’t see on camera!

Anime dudebros: I'm gonna consume a main character that is so bland-

Horikoshi: Funky little queer boy. Neurodivergent af. Weirdo. Midoriya Izuku has big ol puppy dog eyes. Crybaby fanboy. Nerd. Good with kids. Strong sense of compassion and justice.

Anime dudebros: Okay, wait, but he becomes cold and jaded by his former friend and bully and goes solo all badass-like, it's this bitter rivalry-

Horikoshi: No. They're gay for each other now. That's his boyfriend. Two twunks learning how to be vulnerable with each other through benevolent rivalry. They really want to hold hands.

Anime dudebros: But... Will he still beat the shit out of villains and save the world by becoming the next symbol of-

Horikoshi: He's gonna save them. The villains. With the power of friendship. And gay love.
