Plushies Are Amazing Help For Autistic People

They’re great comfort items

They help you sleep better

They help prevent/recover from meltdowns

You can hug them

They’re great for stimming

They help you when you’re overwhelmed

They get you with/without words

Every change is easier with them (this may or may not be true for some)

coping and caring for littles with RSD!

what is rsd?

(r)ejection (s)ensitivy (d)ysphoria is an experience of intense emotional pain caused by perceived failure or rejection. in short, it is a heightened sensitivity to rejection. this condition is linked to adhd because it is believed to stem from disregulation of rejection-related emotions and behavior. although it is linked to adhd, it can also come from other forms of neurodivergency, ptsd, bpd, and other conditions.

in littles, this can look like:

🍀 intense negative reactions to angry, indifferent, dismissive, or annoyed tones of voice directed at them

🍀 overperceiving or "inventing" threats around them, can lead to heightened anxiety or sudden mood changes

🍀 adverse reactions to having structured caretaking (a.k.a "firm hands"), being told what to do, or being disciplined

and can result in:

🍀 fussy littles

🍀 emotional and physical shut downs or social withdrawal

🍀 outbursts, tantrums, or fits

🍀 negative self-talk, rumination, and defensiveness

if you are a little with rsd, here are some ways to manage (even while regressed)!

- giving yourself positive affirmations

"i did nothing wrong", "they are not upset with me", "i am loved and seen", "my opinion is valued and i matter"

- counteract your immediate response to perceived negativity. if someone says something in a rude tone, think of other possible reasons they may be upset.

"they are not upset because of something i did. they might not be feeling well, they might be having a bad day, or they might be stressed or tired right now. the way they reacted to me is not my fault"

- write down what happened, how it made you feel, and some ways you can make yourself feel better

- think about what is in your control and what is out of your control

e.g. you cannot control someone else's emotions, but you can control your breathing

calm your amygdala

- take big deep breaths

- practice identifying something in each of your senses

"what can i hear, what can i see, what can i smell, what can i taste, what can i feel"

- remove yourself from the situation if you can

take a brain break, go to a quieter location, watch a video of something you love, listen to a song that calms you

- hug your plushies!

- use a pacifier or chew toy

if you are a carer for a little with rsd:

- be patient! your small may not be able to idenitify why they are feeling or reacting this way in the moment. sit with them and don't rush them as they process their emotions

- if they are being fussy or verbally combative, it is valid to feel overwhelmed or stressed. remember that above all else, you are in control of your body and how you choose to respond. keep your voice level, avoid using aggressive language, speak gently, and reinforce positive talk

- ask them how they are feeling and listen to them. let them explain their emotions, even if they seem irrational. what they feel is real to them! validate their feelings

- help your little figure out ways of coping that work for them. give them options

"do you need some quiet time alone to calm down? would you like for me to hold you? how about we watch your favorite show? or we can play something together! you can pick!"

this is something that i have struggled with all my life, and it seems to be heightened when i'm regressed. i hope this helped others struggling or who know someone struggling, at least a little bit! <3

if you have rsd, remember:

the people in your life want you to be there. your friends care about you! you are not a bad person because you made a mistake. everything you do doesn't have to be perfect, you are human! and you are deserving of love no matter what. <3

Sawyer is neurodivergent and you can't change my mind

Last year for Autism Acceptance Day, my good friend @pikatrainer99 and I did a collab post about Goh and our headcanon of being him autistic. Here's a link to that post if you'd like to check it out:

Today, we'd like to talk about Sawyer from Pokemon XY, another character who we both headcanon as autistic, and who means the world to me.

Let's start with his special interest, Pokemon battles. In all of Sawyer's appearances, we can clearly see his desire to learn as much as he can about battling and to grow stronger. He greatly admires strong trainers like Steven Stone and Ash. I mean, just look at how excited he gets when he hears that Ash had won five badges!

And that's exactly what he does for the rest of the series. He spends so much time studying and training that he manages to catch up to Ash within a just season's worth of episodes! But we'll get to that later.

Before going into detail about his most obvious traits, let's go over some of the traits that we only see for brief moments, starting with his sensory sensitivities. In episode 73, we see him getting visibly overwhelmed when the crowd around him, Ash, and Clemont suddenly starts cheering. We also see him shielding his eyes from Spritzee's Dazzling Gleam attack during his battle with Valerie. Note that he's the only one to react this way to both situations. I don't know about you, but I have yet to meet a single autistic person without some kind of hypersensitivity to noise, bright light, smell, texture, etcetera.

We also see in the following episode that he sometimes unintentionally gets too close to people when he's excited, not noticing their discomfort. We see this after Ash wins his gym battle with Valerie, and Sawyer is so beyond amazed and eager to learn from him that he momentarily forgets how to act "socially appropriately". Ash and his friends are visibly uncomfortable, but of course, because they're all so kind and supportive, they don't judge him for this 🥺

We also see in the first episode of XYZ that he's an amazing artist. And I mean, AMAZING! He can literally draw Squishy the Zygarde Core exactly how it looks in its official artwork, despite only having seen it for the first time that day! While not every autistic person has to have a talent like this, it's definitely not uncommon. Growing up, Pika and I both used to draw a lot, and our drawing skills were one of the few things we took pride in because of how much praise we got for it.

Now let's talk about one of his most adorable traits, which is his habit of saying, "I've gained some EXP!" Clearly he's into video games and enjoys feeling like he's in one, because this is definitely not something you typically hear in real life. This kind of escapism is quite common in autistic people, Pika and I included. In a world that's not built for us, sometimes imagining ourselves in a fictional world that we love can be really comforting and even inspiring in some cases.

You've probably noticed that Sawyer is holding his notebook in all of the last three screenshots, which is also something I'd like to get into. Not only is his notebook a crucial part of his character, but it's also a security item. Pika and I both have security items of our own, namely our phones and our favourite Pokemon plushies, which helps bring us a lot of much-needed comfort. In episode 75, we see just how panicked Sawyer gets when he temporarily loses his notebook, which quickly leads to him becoming depressed.

We know that he values his notebook deeply because it contains all he's learned on his journey, as well as an autograph from Steven Stone. But if you look deeper, it becomes clear that it's even more to him than that. He holds his notebook close to his heart, both metaphorically and literally. He hugs it after receiving approval from Ash (which I'll also get to later) Heck, he even attached his Key Stone to it! He cherishes this notebook like it's his baby, and we find that so adorable and relatable!

Okay, now it's time to get into what's arguably the saddest part of his character: his constant need of approval from others. Pika and I, as well as countless other autistic people, are no strangers to self-doubt, especially in a world where we can't meet a lot of people's expectations. Sawyer likely grew up feeling this way too, which would explain why he's always seeking Ash's approval, since Ash is the one he looks up to the most. Throughout the series, Sawyer's constantly trying desperately to catch up to him. What's even more heartbreaking is that even after he beats Ash, he still needs reassurance from him that he's become strong 🥺

And to make matters worse, he's constantly masking his frustration whenever he fails to beat Ash. The autistic community is definitely no stranger to masking either.

It's not until the episode after his Kalos League battle with Ash when we finally see Sawyer breaking down. All those hours of training to catch up to Ash only led to him losing again in their most important battle yet. He was devastated, but he couldn't show that in front of Ash out of fear of being judged. Once he and Sceptile were alone, however, Sawyer was finally able to let out all the built-up frustration. And oh boy, was it emotional to watch...

But being the resilient trainer he is, Sawyer quickly dried off his tears and reaffirmed his desire to become stronger.

It takes a lot of strength to bounce back from something like this. I also went through a lot of inner turmoil around the time XYZ was airing. But seeing Sawyer bounce back like this inspired me to keep going, and make it through the rest of that year with Sawyer as my main source of comfort.

Needless to say, I see a lot of myself in Sawyer, and so does Pika. Not only is he relatable, but his story is also a great reminder that no matter how bad things feel in the moment, we can always make it out the other side. This is an important message for a lot of people, especially within the autistic community.

Even after all these years, I still find lots of comfort in Sawyer, and I know that'll last for many more years to come 💚

[dyslexiboxes]

Welcome to Dyslexiboxes!

This blog is run by @lesboylycan, a polyfragmented multi-origins spiritual collective with DID and dyslexia, among many other things. This blog is aimed towards fellow plurals and neurodivergents, and our userboxes will be made to be easy to read.

This blog is a safe space for endogenic, multi-origins, and spiritual & metaphysical plurals; good-faith IDs (lesboys, gaybians, mspec monos, etc); schizo-/psychosis-spectrum folks and folks with personality disorders; and alterhumans and nonhumans, including physical alter/nonhumans. DNI if any of these are in your DNI or you otherwise cannot say the same. We are anti-fakeclaiming and anti-harassment; if you cannot say the same about yoursel[f/ves], DNI. We use the block button liberally.

Radfems are not welcome under any circumstances. I don't care if you're "trans-inclusionary"; radical feminism cannot be reclaimed in any way that doesn't end up hurting marginalized people. The core pillar of radical feminism is a hatred of men for the sake of being men; no matter how you spin it, there is no possible way to make it "good".

All hate will be deleted. Blatant harassment will be reported AND deleted.

[Guidelines and examples below cut]

General Guidelines

> All userboxes will come with an alt ID, formatted as "A userbox that states '[x]'. On the left in the image box is a/the [photo/flag/drawing/etc] depicting [y]".

> You can request different fonts for userboxes, but the default will be OpenDyslexic. The only alterations we will otherwise make to the text is changing the color and adding an outline to make it as easy to read as possible. You can also send different font types if you want something other than OpenDyslexic, but aren't sure for certain what specific font you want (serif, sans serif, script, or decorative).

> If you want a specific image, please either send the image or a link to it as part of your request; otherwise, we will pick based on what we think will be most thematically appropriate. If you want a specific kind of image, send a description of such (eg., "An image of wolves cuddling"; "An image of ocean waves"; etc).

> If you want a very specific color or color scheme, please send hexcodes (If you're looking for a good website to help, colorhexa.com is a great website for finding hexcodes)! If you just send the name of the color, we will do our best, but different colors (and shades/tints of them) often are all grouped under the same name (there are a million different kinds of "emerald green", for example). You can also send a basic idea of a color scheme ("Dark colors"; "Light colors"; "Pastels"; "Monochrome"; "Greyscale"; etc).

> Credit isn't necessary if you use our userboxes, but it is much appreciated!

> We reserve the right to not do certain requests if we're uncomfortable with them; if you aren't sure and would like to know where your request stands, feel free to send an ask!

> Please only send one request per ask. You can send multiple asks, just keep each request within its own ask; that way, we have a better idea of what our workload will be when looking at our inbox.

What we will do

> Plural-focused userboxes! Include system, sisasystem, and headmate origins; layer types; system functions; etc. For plural-focused userboxes, by default, we will make four versions that say "This user...", "This system...", "This plural...", and "This collective..."; for headmates, by default, we will make five versions that say "This user...", "This headmate...", "This alter...", "This member...", and "This part...". Feel free to request specific words (eg., constellation, hivemind, drone, sysmate, etc), though!

> General neurodivergency-focused userboxes! Eg., "This user has schizophrenia", "This user has NPD", etc.

> Miscellaneous userboxes! Eg., "This user needs a nap"; "This user is normal about [x]"; "This user loves plushies"; etc. (We're aware this category can intersect with the above, but we figured we'd mention it for folks that aren't totally sure what is allowed)

> Modifications of previously made userboxes upon request (Note: you must link the post with the userbox in question so we know which one you're talking about)

What we WON'T do

> Userboxes that directly break the DNI (Eg., "This user is anti-endo"; "This user hates therians"; "This user believes in narcissistic abuse"; "This user hates fakers"; etc). This includes any and all bigotry.

> Userboxes with hard-to-read fonts (eg., fonts that are highly stylized with little distinction between letters)

> Userboxes with severe unreality or paranoia-inducing text

Neurodivergent Nick Jackson; headcanon list

Warnings: none

Notes: I asked some time back if anyone would be interested in neurodivergent headcanons, so I wrote some! I’m autistic and have ADHD, and have friends who are also neurodivergent, so this is based on my experience and what I’ve seen through my friends! I hope you enjoy!

— Nick struggles the most with emotion, whether it be displaying his emotion or reading other people’s emotions, it’s never been something he’s ever been good at. It’s typically why his voice/tone comes off as very monotone, as expression is difficult for him. There are, of course, people who have gotten used to this and can read him well, but for people he’s first meeting, he can come off as blunt or rude when he doesn’t mean to be at all.

— Nick stims vocally, whether it be words, phrases from his friends or tv shows, or various little noises. ‘Bacaw’ is his more common vocal stim, but he also clicks his tongue, repeats words or phrases he hears in conversation, and occasionally does his pitched “hewwo” that he usually uses for spam calls. When repeating others, he usually only repeats Matt or Hangman, but will occasionally repeat after people who he isn’t very close with.

— Nick uses chewelry ( chewable jewelry ) as another way of stimulation when understimulated or overwhelmed, as he often grinds his teeth together or chew his nails. He used to use baby teething rings, but they typically broke after some use, so Matt had found him something more durable. Nick’s favorites are either just the chewing sticks or anything in a more round shape.

— Nick’s comfort items are his old Bullet Club hoodie, his pillow, and this plushie keychain he got from Kenny years ago in Japan that stays hooked to his backpack. He hates traveling without any of these things, as he gets very anxious without his little comfort things. He does remember one time he had left his pillow at home and how Adam tried to make things better by buying him a new one, though it didn’t help much at all because it wasn’t Nick’s pillow, despite it being the same.

— Nick does have sensory issues, just not as intense as others. As his sensory issues are not very touch focused, Nick isn’t much of a picky eater (Although he does have his safe foods he will fall back on every so often, such as Wendy’s fries and grilled chicken.) Nick can’t handle strong scents, often making him very tense and overwhelmed. Candles aren’t often lit at his home and any cologne he wears is very light. On top of this, he doesn’t really have an issue with noise either and would prefer a lot of noise rather than none at all.

— Nick is always doing something with his hands. Snapping his fingers, playing with threads on his clothes, patting his thighs, playing with his hair, messing with the zippers on his bag, etc. He does try to do things that are silent to not disturb others, so he doesn’t really use fidget toys.

What makes Peridot from Steven Universe the autistic girlie ever of all time? Here's what the people have to say:

Peridot-related asks/reblogs: x This post will be updated after each round!

Image ID in alt text and under the readmore.

[Image ID. White slide with a screenshot of Peridot in the bottom right corner, she is smiling and wearing her red bowtie. She is surrounded by text boxes which read,

"She doesn't get social cues. Like, at all. She takes things too literally and she's very blunt herself. When she tries to joke, she can come off as rude or insulting, cause again, doesn't get social cues. She's a little nerd who loves disassembling and making stuff. Also she's my blorbo and I have autism so therefore so does she, hope this helps <3"

"literally everything abt her. she stims she has sensory overloads she has a special interest in tech she doesn’t understand social cues"

"I'm going to start this off by saying that the creator of the show pretty much confirmed all of the gems are neurodivergent, since they're aliens and don't think and act like humans. Peridot is who I'm nominating since I believe she's one of the most relatable gems to a lot of autistic people (including myself) Okay, so she's pretty bad with communicating with others, especially early on in the series. When trying to apologize to Amethyst, she records herself with her voice recorder (which is also shown to be a big comfort to her) and plays that recording for Amethyst instead of speaking directly to her She is extremely literal, not understanding human phrases and jokes (ex: Steven: Oh peridot, you're killing me! Peridot: I am not! That would violate our truce agreement!) She says things and doesn't understand why those things were upsetting for other characters, such as when she was pointing out how Amethyst is smaller than she's supposed to be. She found this funny and thought Amethyst would too, but Amethyst was upset since she's insecure about being "wrong", and Peridot didn't realize what she said was upsetting to Amethyst She makes up words and phrases for things so they make sense to her (ex: calling fingers "touch-stumps") She repeats the word "clod" a lot, possibly as a stim She gets a tablet later on in the series and is very excited since it reminds her of her old tech. She attaches it to her arm with a velcro strap, and spends a lot of the episode on the tablet. I believe technology is one of her special interests, and the tablet is a comfort item. In that episode Amethyst takes the tablet and tries to throw it in the ocean, causing Peridot to get very upset, yell "It's all that I am!", and activate her new metal powers (she's able to levitate metal, allowing her to save her tablet) She may also have a special interest in a show called "Camp Pining Hearts", as she's shown spending a large amount of time watching it by herself and with Lapis Lazuli. In Steven Universe Future, there's a remake of the show and she is very excited to watch it with Steven, but she doesn't like it. They spend the episode trying to change it to be better with Steven's dream powers, until Peridot realizes it's stressing out Steven and making him afraid of her leaving if he can't make it right I'm positive I'm missing things, but I think this is long enough already lol"

"Trouble socializing, doesn't understand why jokes are funny outside literal terms, stims vocally and physically, gets really obsessed with Camp Pining Hearts. Has trouble understanding emotions. Relied on accommodations to function and has comfort objects like tablets and an alien plushy."

"*tells joke* *person doesn’t laugh* “that was the incorrect response” "

"She's very literal, all the time, even for a gem (and not all gems are literal anyways). Uses her pre recorded voice as a way to get her more complicated thoughts out, so it's like an ACD. She mimics behaviours. She has echolalia with one word especially. Very strange humour. She's upset by other gems' unpredictability, and doesn't understand hoe what she says can hurt the other crystal gems. She has meltdowns that others call temper tantrums. She makes up a word system that makes sense to her, in order to help with her communication issues."

"Vocal stimming, talks very literally, can’t tell when others are upset, people pleaser, emotional regulation problems"

"She just is" End ID.]

Autism Awareness Month

I was diagnosed with severe anxiety and ADHD back in 2021. And I feel like I can confidently say that I also have high-functioning autism. And throughout the month, I'm going to be sharing videos I've come across that really resonate with me.

More of my own thoughts & experiences below the cut.

No, I'm not diagnosed. No, I don't know if getting diagnosed is the right option for me at this time. I know there's a stigma around self-diagnosing, especially here on Tumblr where it was running rampant for a while and becoming a genuine detriment to those who actually needed proper resources and expertise. But many people around me throughout the course of my life, from my parents, to high school and college counselors, to friends who do fall on the autistic spectrum, have agreed that I exhibit symptoms and behaviors typically seen in diagnosed autistic individuals.

The main reason I never ended up getting tested was because of my mom's concern with the stigma it would place on me to be labeled autistic. And I do understand where she's coming from; the education system and working world can be absolutely barbaric in the way it treats people on the spectrum.

But I'll always wonder if it would have helped me in the long run, had I been able to acquire tools and knowledge earlier in my life to help me better process my own emotions and responses to the world around me.

I was the "weird kid" in class, constantly being bullied to tears by classmates, being made to feel alienated because I simply didn't understand social cues, throwing tantrums due to my constant short fuse, and being marked a "problem student" because I had trouble focusing - while simultaneously being praised for being a "gifted" student with Straight A report cards.

I felt like I was so sheltered and bubbled that my emotional and social maturity didn't bloom until much later down the line; and, frankly, there are still very few neurotypical social expectations that I just don't care about or vibe with.

I've always been so badly overstimulated by typical background ambience from places like restaurants or grocery stores that I have to wear earplugs or headphones in public spaces to avoid having panic attacks.

I constantly feel like I'm masking; responding how I feel neurotypicals expect me to respond, otherwise I'm going to come off as completely aloof, rude or disinterested when in fact I listen better by looking away and keeping my responses to a minimum.

I have many comfort plushies and stim toys. I have a special interest in clowns, lucid dreaming, and Quantum physics, among others. I latch onto fictional shows and characters- hell, I make my own OCs to latch onto, because projecting through them is a means for me to understand myself better.

The only people who ever see me for my truest self are my closest friends, who treat my fickle boundaries with utmost respect, just as I do for them. We all happily ramble on about our personal stories, fictional worlds, video game interests etc, while parroting each other's silly sounds and dumb memes; things that feel completely and totally normal to us, that would make the average person think we belong in a mental institute.

There is still so, so much stigma around autism and neurodivergence. We still have a long ways to go, to make sure that harmful, deceitful programs like Autism Speaks don't get to have any claim to being the "face" of autistic representation. There's a reason it's a spectrum; autism isn't always going to look the same from person to person. Just because I have developmental differences, and "different" ways of perceiving and responding to the world around me, doesn't make me any less capable of being a functioning member of society. It just means that social situations will always be a bit more difficult and draining to me than it is to the average person.

Autism isn't a disease. It doesn't need to be "cured." It's simply another way that a decent chunk of the human population processes the world around them. And the day more people can start treating it as such, and making a better effort to understand the needs of neurodivergent folks, the sooner we can stop making our fellow human beings feel so alone in their own minds.

[queer-and-nerdy]

this has been tumbling around in my mind for the last week so now i have to expose all of you to it. shoutout to @wellgoslowly for listening to this in person

lockwood LOVES listening to classic rock and metal (as well as a few older pop-punk but he'll never admit to it). anything from the seventies and eighties (he pretends that no other era of metal exists and if you even say the phrase "nu metal" around him he WILL see red and draw his rapier). it doesn't matter who the band is or what subgenre they are, as long as the song was released pre-nineties he loves it, although he tends to prefer more mainstream bands and artists (respect) like ozzy osbourne, judas priest, kiss, etc. the only band he will break this rule for is metallica - they are his all-time favorite band and i will die on that hill. and when i say he WORSHIPS james hetfield... that is an UNDERSTATEMENT. james is like a pseudo-father to him. he doesn't want to put posters on his walls so he keeps a scrapbook of pictures cut out of old magazines of james, lars, kirk, cliff, even jason and rob. he is a number one dave mustaine hater and will defend lars's drumming skills until he's blue in the face. lucy got him a signed copy of ride the lightning for his birthday one year and george didn't see either of them leave lockwood's room for a week. there are only three things he loves in this world: his family, his friends, and james hetfield.

lucy, i feel like, has the most whiplash taste in music. like, yes, we can all agree lucy is your average indie pop listener and i am a major supporter of that hc (i know what linnie’s playlists sound like) but i guarantee you when she shuffles her most-listened-to playlist it goes from crane wives immediately to cannibal corpse. she loves death metal, deathcore, goregrind; the nastier the better (except for black metal - iykyk). the era doesn’t matter to her either although she tends to gravitate toward the older stuff. think opeth, cryptosy, morbid angel, deicide, obituary, venom, slayer, even xavlegimaofffassssitimiwoanindutroabcwapwaeiippohfffx - she loves playing the “can i figure out the name of the band given the logo” game and if she loses she listens to them. she finds it a great way to unleash her stress and anger without hurting herself or others or even taking it out on a case. she doesn't like to mosh (autism) but she loves watching people in the pit at concerts. she drags lockwood and george to the store to help her pick out plushies to give to corpsegrinder. one night she goes to a taylor swift concert and rushes out at the end to make it to sanguisugabogg in time. she's also a big female-rage/female-led fan (fem supporting fem yk how it is). if there is even a single fem-presenting band member she is instantly ride-or-die (within reason, of course). any time conquer divide/castrator/cyrpta do an eu tour she essentially becomes a roadie.

george. oh, george. my beloved kin. the only one who understands me and i him. his taste in rock and metal is... i don't know a better way to describe it other than neurodivergent fruity. it needs to have some kind of element to it that he can latch onto other than just the music - costumes, over-the-top production, detailed lore, etc. like lockwood, he doesn't really care about the subgenre; as long as he likes the sound he'll listen. he tends to frequent more of the nu/prog/melodic/symphonic side of metal, though. he's your average autistic ghost fan and makes it everyone else's problem. he knows all the lore and has dedicated his life to every incarnation of papa (primo is his favorite but he loves them all). he can tell the ghouls in every era apart in an instant and is a consistent quintessence ghoul kinnie. he will not hesitate to get into twitter beef to defend his opinions (bro's in the trenches of toxic ghostwt). he's one of the most well-known ghost accounts on every social media platform and actively writes fanfiction (about the characters, NOT the real people), character analyses, and essays. he's also a HUGE sleep token fan (he understands their lore better than vessel himself and has created a youtube commentary channel just to break down each of their songs) and ice nine kills fan (he's a number one ricky armellino lover and has forced lockwood and lucy to watch all of the horror movies that the silver scream one and two are based off of). he loves avatar and made his own ringmaster costume (lucy walked in on him trying to recreate johannes's makeup and slowly backed out of the room; the situation was never mentioned again) and when chris motionless unveiled his new hair he screamed so loud that the others thought someone had broken into portland row (lockwood had to restrain him while lucy hid his laptop to prevent him from ordering purple hair dye). he has a ziplock bag of (definitely expired) marshmallows that he calls his “rammstein concert care package.” he pretends to be a gatekeeper but the instant someone mentions even a passing interest in any of his favorite bands he will burst into tears.

Ghost- He very much is a sensory guy. Has to feel things before wearing clothes, has to make sure it doesnt scratch his skin. Part of the reason he hates touch is how rough peoples hands can feel, the callouses too much and he h a t e s it. Also why he wears gloves, the insides are lined with a soft fabric and it keeps the rough stuff off his hands. The only one who knows about this is Price and thats because he one time walked in to Ghost being near panic attack cause he couldn't find his gloves and wouldn't take any offered to him.

Soap- I feel like this man sleeps with his door open at home. The demons can stare, he'll stare back. Not in the slightest bothered by it just because if the doors open he can see whats out there, always sleeps with his door cracked open on base, able to see light peeking through and the shadows if someone approaches. Gaz tells him he's weird for this but he finds it funny when someone walks up and he just goes "Come in >insert name<" before they even knock.

Gaz- This bitch has a stuffie. Fight me on this but he's got a little stuffy (strongly feel like its a horse for some reason) that comes along on missions. Its tucked in his vest and not a soul knows about this. He had a pocket made tucked to the side just so theres less risk of the plushie being shot and the thing has been patched up once by Ghost of all people. Neither talk about it, but Ghost will wordlessly check on Gaz's plush when checking on him just because how much it means to Gaz. I feel like Price knows about this as well, and lets Gaz be with it because it helps Gaz stay level headed.

Price- This man is well versed in the world of neurodivergent. He is convinced whole heartedly his kids team members all have something going on and just adapts to it. Ghost has a rough sensory day, he's there with a soft hoodie and some gloves to help him re-regulate. He sees someone pull Soap's door closed while he's napping and cracks it back open so the man doesn't have a heart attack when he wakes. Gaz asks for the pocket to be added and grants it without question. Helps him with the recruits from time to time because he notices these things and just fixes it. Even sometimes does it to Laswell. She has this one audio issue and when things get bad for her he just levels the look and everyone shuts the fuck up.

Roach- He feels powerful when out of reach. Aka you will find his ass sitting on the fridge. Why? He likes it. Has convinced Ghost to give him a ride on his shoulders, practically beaming the whole time. Got yelled at by Price for climbing ontop of some equipment in the gym, partially because he only did it to scare the fuck outta Soap who never learns to expect him up there. Gaz just takes it as a challenge to find the latest spot, and the gc just has a streak counter of who's found Roach's perch each day.

[cinthau]

Wanted to make my first actual talking post cause I need y'all to know that this space is safe for those who may not feel welcome in their own communities.

No matter anything, you are loved.

Aspec people? Your love is so different from what others expect it to be, and if you're loveless you're so so valid and I love you in the same way I love the universe. Asexual, aromantic, aplatonic, asensual, every a- out there: you're not broken. You're not wrong for being yourself and I love you like all the stars in the sky, so many more than what's visible.

Alterhumans? No matter what/who you are, you're beautiful for exploring your identity as something non-human, human-adjacent, or human in a different flavor! You're amazing and wonderful and I'm so proud of you for even considering being yourself in a world not built for you. Human, animal, object, concept, doesn't matter because you still deserve respect and love. I love you like all the little bugs I find outside, all beautiful and free.

People with conflicting labels? You're so cool. I don't care if you identify as a man and a lesbian at the same time. I don't care if you identify as a woman and a gay bear at the same time. I don't care how you identify, you're a living being and you're just as valid as everyone else. I love you like trinkets, all so unique and beautiful in your own ways.

Systems? You're spectacular and no origin of system or headmate could change my mind. Your system came about from trauma? I'm so proud of you for coping with your trauma and living your life happier and healthier with others that can support you. No trauma? That's okay! It's none of anyone else's business how you came about, what matters is that you're living your life the best way you can and I'm so proud of you. I love you like yarn, all so wonderful and varying and full of endless possibility.

Disabled people? Your disabilities don't make you any less deserving of respect and love, no matter what anyone says. You don't need to prove your usefulness to anyone that actually deserves to know you. You're allowed to be "useless". Your existence is a blessing even though I know it can be so difficult or impossible to do even basic tasks, and your worth is way beyond whatever anyone tells you you "should" be able to do. I love you like plushies, made to love and be loved, made to exist.

Neurodivergent people? You're so strong. This world was not built for your mind that varies so greatly from what's expected of you. Those of you that have a "dangerous" disorder, you're so valued and I'm so proud of you for being your best self, no matter those that say you're insane or manipulative just for being yourself. I love you like nature, unpredictable or scary to those unwilling to understand, you're beautiful not despite your brain but in tandem with it.

Xenogenders? You're epic. It's so awesome that you've been able to identify with concepts, objects, animals, characters, literally anything! You can be anything! Isn't that amazing? I don't care if it's cringe, I don't care. You're being yourself and that's so amazing. I love you like art, found in every place you look if you're looking with an open mind.

Religious people? It's so amazing that you've found something to believe in that helps you live your best life. As long as you're not using your religion to put others down, you have my support. It's so spectacular that you have something you believe in. Please don't let anyone take that away from you. I love you like rainbows, a miracle of life and a wonderful sight to see.

People with personality disorders? You're so valid. Granted I don't know much, but I do know that you deserve love and respect just as much as anyone else. No matter how misunderstood or mistreated, you're safe here. I'm always willing to learn and understand how to be a good person to everyone, no matter how "scary" you are. You're wonderful and I hope you know that. I love you like the ocean, full of so much vastness and beauty below the surface.

I love you I love you I love you!!!

However,

If you are a shitty person who forces yourself onto others or thinks that others are below you for what they believe in, do NOT be anywhere near my page. If you are any sort of -phobic, any sort of "minor liking person", any sort of asshole: I will automatically block you and you are NOT welcome here.

If you use my wholesome post to start drama or controversy I will block you. This is not a safe space for you if that is your intent.

This page is for loving, not hating.

Hello there again! I hope this question does not sound ill intended at all, but what is objectum? I have heard it around for awhile and have gotten varying definitions but I thought it would be worth the shot asking you as I want to be able to understand what the term means as I am quite confused in it and how it is possible. If you do not feel comfortable answering do not fret. Thank you!

- @batty-babbles

Hi again Batty!! I hope you're well ^^

I might not be the most qualified to go in depth about this, but I'll explain it the best I can in my own words.

Objectum is an orientation that involves the attraction to objects, and in some cases, concepts as well. The attraction someone feels for an object might be sexual, romantic, platonic, familial, etc. For me personally, I experience all of the above except for sexual attraction :3

The object(s) someone is attracted to is known as their "beloved objects", and the object can be pretty much anything! Some examples are plushies, computers, buildings, and so on!

Some objectums form relationships with their beloved object(s). Many (but not all) believe that the object(s) can reciprocate feelings for them and experience sentience. This is known as POSIC, or "Perception of Object Sentience, Intelligence, and Consciousness". The term "POSIC+" is also used to expand upon the acronym.

You might also see the term "os/or" going around, and that just means "objectum sexuality/objectum romantic (orientation)".

As for why this happens, it's different for everyone! Some people believe it might be due to neurodivergence, among other things I can't remember right now :') At the end of the day, it's the same as any other orientation, but in this case its with objects!

Hope this helped ^^ @batty-babbles

[ohyangchon]

guilt and alone for an oc of ur choosing!

What is your OC guilty about? How do they handle their guilt? Do they try to avoid guilt, or do they accept it?

Myron is guilty about a lot of things - she views her existence as something worth being guilty over because as a (now-ex) Red Wizard of Thay her existence is all about bringing suffering and fear to others. She thinks anything befalling her friends or family is inevitably her fault, and usually (perhaps unfortunately) she is right, so she works very hard to keep everyone she loves safe and comfortable as much as possible - and people like her adopted brother Haruuc have caught onto her overwork and intense need for control so they swaddle her aggressively in blankets and plushies to stop her from driving herself into the ground over and over for it :P

How does your OC deal with loneliness? Have they ever been completely alone before? How do they act when there's no one around to see them?

Due to past isolation and trauma, Myron cannot stand being completely alone. She can ignore others and parallel play in the same room as someone without talking to them, but if left completely alone with no way to summon anyone to herself, she begins to crack and eventually becomes instantly suicidal from the crushing helplessness she starts having from being unable to receive human connection. Being tortured in an anti-magic field where she was kept alone and disconnected doesn't help :x

Myron's true self is almost childlike, stripped of all her personas and "conforming to society" masks. She never was allowed to truly form a personality since her past job required her to be completely malleable to suit her superiors, so now at the young, young age of 32 human years, she's finally in a safe enough space to be able to learn how to person and so all her neurodivergence designed around masking perfectly have dropped and she is now a mischievous and sneaky little woman who loves soft plushies and a nice long cuddle with her spouses.

[romance-dawning]

Feeling a bit low so I’m going to take a deep breath and focus on me and Sun and Moons 4th year anniversary today! <3

My beautiful, kind, loving, ever lovable cosmos these two. I remember when Security Breach came out I was. Enamored to say the least. I was so happy their segment was so early in the game because that meant I got to watch my favorite creators play their section over and over and I could see them too… again and again. While they haven’t been my focus recently they haven’t left or changed how much they mean to me in the long run.

They really both just feel so. Safe and make me feel like they would understand me and be by my side even in my worst of worst moments. Sunny is such a sweetheart who would match my passion beat for beat and never judge me. I’ve been finding a lot of solice and euphoria in using tts bots to speak and I can just imagine my insert speaking in a very similar way since I don’t think they would be programmed with that in depth of vocal lines and I just. The idea of Sun and Moon finding that endearing and being fond of it makes me smile. I’ve always been so insecure in my neurodivergence symptoms cause I’ve gotten backlash or made to be weird for it and just. The idea of Sun having similar things and him understanding and not judging me at all fills me with such joy. He’s such a ball of sunshine I love him more than words could say.

And Moon. Oh my god my little Moonbug. I know he’s supposed to be scary and unnerving and honestly. Being one of the few people I’ve seen who doesn’t take that side at face value makes my relationship with him a little.. special I think. Their isn’t a week that goes by that I don’t think I would sleep better with him by my side. Singing me a lullaby, listening to my woahs, keeping me entertained and helping me from spiraling. The whole thing. I’ve not had the most positive relationship with sleep in the past and just the idea of him being there to help me and keep me occupied helps a lot. I want to get a plushie of him to sleep with at some point if I can.

And I only realized how much these two genuinely mean to me when I made this blog like. That’s crazy to me. Like they’re why I got into selfshipping in the first place.

For such a long time I felt so lost on my craving for some sort of romantic connection despite feeling it very little. I was very self destructive and was desperate to feel ANYTHING like I had seen in media and I made lots of assumptions about myself and the people around me that ended up not being right in an attempt to find it and make it work. I’m forever grateful to my last ex who I’m still super close to and am in a queerplatonic relationship with for helping me so much through that and being so understanding. And I’m so glad I found selfshipping through that journey. It’s genuinely brought me so much joy in such a short amount of time and help channel my passion.

These two little goobers have changed my life so much for the better they mean the absolute WORLD to me <3

Here’s to 4 years ☀️🌟🌙💛

[that-darn-clown]

so. thought about the Fnaf kiddos and Neurodivergence. and i looked it up. there's. technically three types of ADHD. which i didn't know, so that's interesting. so you now get My Rambles.

before we even start: everyone's somewhere on the spectrum. not elaborating.

Charlie:

hyperverbal (in that he has a large vocabulary for someone his age, can talk about special interests at length (even if no one's interested anymore), and struggles with social cues to some extent).

got her father's interest in animatronics and mechanics. among things like dogs, ghosts, and Fucked Up Shit From The Victorian Era, apparently.

yes, he and Susie bonded by talking about dogs.

Charlie also has, as it is described, "combined presentation" ADHD (aka has a pretty equal mix of Inattentive ADHD and Hyperactive-Impulsive ADHD).

this means that Charlie was just. in hell at school. still made good grades somehow. by some miracle.

Charlie can handle loud noises...Up To A Point.

she struggles with having wet clothes on (sensory hell), touching wet food on dishes (due to this, Charlie cannot do the dishes as a chore), and Can't do itchy sweaters. can, however, have stickers stuck all over his face.

moral OCD, but we've already been over this.

Henry, who took his kids to Fallfest: Uh...you alright, hun?

Charlie, who stood next to a loud game for Slightly too long and is visibly Vibrating™: hhhhhhh

Sammy:

nonverbal, for the most part (Can talk, but not for long. because it gets more difficult for him the longer he does it)

also can't deal with wet clothes, but Can surprisingly deal with touching wet food on plates.

doesn't know how Charlie deals with stickers on her skin.

he's got Charlie's sound sensitivity problems, but turn that up to a twelve. Henry, generally, keeps some spare earplugs (used for when he needs ear protection while working) for the twins to use. Charlie, usually, doesn't use them (even though they'd probably help), but Sammy uses them whenever he's somewhere that's gonna be loud.

Severe Anxiety. no one's sure what caused it. they don't know if he was born with it or not. after Charlie died, it worsened into paranoia.

around 1985-86, anger issues got added to The List.

Michael:

just not good with social cues and situations. like, there's a reason he only hangs out with a small group of friends, Charlie & Sammy, and his own family.

foxes as a special interest. and art. also The Immortal and the Restless-

Dissociative Amnesia (< like. one of the main plot points of the rewrite)

struggled with sleep after Cassidy died.

can mask...relatively well. the autism, not Anything Else.

Liz:

hyperverbal

hyperactive-impulsive ADHD

got rabbits and jesters as a special interest. probably also Sanrio, Care Bears, and Strawberry Shortcake. dunno, she just gives those vibes.

if you think MIKE is bad with social cues and situations, for Liz, it's her personal hell. but also her favorite thing. she's very outgoing.

she's got her Daddy's eyes and smile 😊 (< both of them have this wide-eyed hare-like look to them, but while Liz is able to make it look cute, in an OwO/OuO way...it just makes Will look like he's staring into your soul)

she used to Hate getting her hair wet when she was younger. made trying to give her a bath a Nightmare.

most of her sensory issues come from food and clothes. only soft clothes, and only foods that don't have Dramatic Texture Changes in the middle of eating them.

Cassidy:

semiverbal, but in a way that makes it difficult to distinguish with selective mutism (but trust me, there Is a difference).

struggles a lot with noise and texture. doesn't get tone or sarcasm too well. or non-literal phrases.

AFRID. not gonna elaborate.

Hyper-Empathy.

personifies/anthropomorphisizes plushies. i think this could be viewed as canon, but We're Not Making A Post On That Right Now.

very shy; doesn't usually like talking to people.

struggled with sleep after the MCI (specifically witnessing David's death); was the original Haver Of The Nightmares.

Fredbear Plushie was a comfort item, and i take no criticism with this

beloved <3

Susie:

hyper-empathy

personifies animals and video game characters that don't really Have any personality (like the Fruity Maze character) (this is actually somewhat implied by Samantha in "Do You Believe In Ghosts?" fun fact!!)

has dogs as a special interest. obviously.

struggles with non-literal phrases, or things with nuance where the nuance wasn't brought up (ex. Susie understands Stranger Danger, but not that Someone In A Costume Who Claims To Be A Fictional Character You Know would count as a Stranger. guess why this is important).

is usually described as "having her head in the clouds."

Fritz Jr.:

has Inattentive ADHD. yeah they. kinda struggled in school.

has scavenger animals (ex. Vultures and Coyotes), foxes, and pirates as special interests.

Foxy's his comfort character.

they don't spend a lot of time at home because his stepdad's Loud (drunkenly yelling either at Fritz or David. or in general)

cannot get sarcasm for the life of them.

Gabi:

Hyperactive-Impulsive ADHD

can taste the difference between sodas from different places. Yes, Some Places Have Worse Soda Than Others.

does Not have a great attention span, and is impulsive.

not a great sense of volume control.

doesn't wear shoes often 'cause she doesn't like how they feel (kinda like Cassidy).

kinda hyperverbal? but like with emphasis on HYPER. (< will talk at length about random topics regardless of if you are interested or not)

has a special interest in horror movies. well, as much as a five year old would be able to, anyway.

really, really does not get why people would find her "annoying" or "too much." just thinks people are being rude.

Gabi: So they use corn syrup for the blood you see in horror movies, which I'm not sure why they don't use real blood because then it'd be realistic, but Jeremy's not told me why that is yet, so-

Some random kid at Freddy's that just sat next to her and nodded when she asked if they wanted to hear "something cool": ಠ_ಠ

Mimi:

very very quiet. that's just how their voice is.

very bad at small talk, or initiating it. it's why they like talking to Gabi. she does most of the talking for them, and initiates the conversations for them.

has space as a special interest; their dad's a teacher, and would bring them to his class (which had a projector) and show them lil movies and stuff about space (including the moon landing). they just think it's neat :]

is...hyperverbal, but not in the way you'd think (has a large vocabulary for their age, and is at a higher reading level than kids at their age would normally be (hyperlexia)).

due to all of this, and the fact that Mimi's bad at regulating their tone, Mimi sometimes comes off as pretentious or kinda like a smartass.

also had mild anger issues before dying, but no one's sure why. um...after death, though, their anger's more understandable (< literally got fucking murdered alongside their best friend on said best friend's birthday).

generally just really shy and cautious, and struggles with loud sounds due to sensory issues.

David:

ALSO has Inattentive ADHD. must run in the family or something

struggles with regulating their tone; can sound like they're pissed when they're really not.

struggles with stuff like empathy; doesn't feel empathy for a lot of people, and it makes them come across as uncaring sometimes

special interests include: Fucked Up Short Stories From Like The Mid-1900s (The Most Dangerous Game, The Lottery, Lamb to the Slaughter, etc.), Christianity in a sense (literally just everything from the book of Matthew onwards), cryptids, and the paranormal.

doesn't like the taste or texture of school food; usually asks Mike, Charlie, or Sammy to bring some for them.

my beloveds <3

(somewhat related: Harvey by Alex G is a Michael and Cassidy song to me)

Charlie and gabi are so mecore (low noise tolerance, low impulse control, inability to tell when people are annoyed)

This is a big win for fritz and david enjoyers <- guy who says that every time you bring up fritz or david
