Since today is International Autism Day and since I am on the spectrum, I feel it is right to dedicate a small post to it. I was diagnosed in my twenties, after spending a lifetime going from one doctor to another, without anyone understanding anything about me. The first time I heard the word Asperger's (i.e. a way to define high-functioning autistics like me) was thanks to Fantastic Beasts, because it was stated that Newt Scamamder has Asperger's. For this reason I would also like to thank the world of Harry Potter for arriving at a diagnosis, and this draws attention to the importance of representing diversity, not only to have a more truthful picture of reality, but because this could concretely help someone.

There comes times where other toons break in, assume Perry's being held captive, and attempt to fight the big bad Chainsaw Consultant in order to "free" em. In the event of this, Perry usually portholes away back to the playground, and at first would wait until the following day to come back.
Eventually, this turned into coming back in once the coast was clear and there was no longer any revving behind closed doors.
When that first happened, eir efforts to offer help- extending a gloved hand to clean off the smears of frosting, or just help tidy the office, ey were immediately met with the sole command to leave.
No eye contact was made.
Ey complied.
It'll be better, tomorrow.
#toontown#toontown corporate clash#corporate clash#perry winkles#chip revvington#chainsaw consultant#cherry#my art#this was gonna be part of an ask regarding if chip lets perry repair him but then i thought more about it and figured it'd be better alone#anyways. this is early-ish in the cherry timeline. when chip is starting to be okay with the fact ey're a toon and not seeing em#as just another faceless employee. let alone an animal he “tamed” but that was just during the unpaid intern thing#buuuuut he does Not have any interest in dealing with em the moment toons ruin his day. ey get off work early but at the cost of#chippy stewing and being mad and upset and grumble grumble. its okay though he's back in his resting autism stare tomorrow

It's international Asexuality day and i wanna wish all Aces a very good day! You are valid, you are seen and you are part of the rainbow just like the other colours🌈 Don't let someone else or society itself determine or validate your feelings & desires You know who you are and that's enough.
April 2nd was also Autism awearness day and i'd like to say to all on the spectrum that, you are also valid. I know some days are harder and it feels like nobody undertstands. But that's okay, it's okay to experience things differently. No one can tell you what traits, feelings and experiences are not right, because they are and they're yours. We're what we were made to be and that's good enough.
Hope everyone has a good weekend. Stay healthy and stay safe✨♥️

Since it's International Day of Disabled People I'd figure I'd make a post or two about it.
First of all, yes, autism is a disability. Even in a perfect world autism would still be a disability. Just because some low support needs people feel like their only struggles are cause of society doesn't change that.
Mid to high support needs people exist. Hell, low support needs people that would still struggle in a perfect world exist.
Now that that's aside, what can you do to support autistic people today?
1, Lift up autistic voices. Especially semiverbal and nonverbal people who are usually silenced because people don't learn how to accommodate them.
2, Spread awareness about the ableism we face. In school we'd be the ones to get bullied, when we grow up it's harder to get and keep jobs, and we even get discrimination for existing in a public place while visibly autistic.
3, Especially support and lift up autistic voices who have multiple disabilities. Whether that's multiple mental disorders or physical disabilities or both. It's disabled people's day after all, not autistic people's. Make people aware of the intersectionality of having multiple disabilities.
I'm going to make a second post about this, talking about more awareness stuff.

sometimes I feel like I'd be more at home if people called me collin
#jeremy lore post#it's so on and off that I'd never ask anyway since I'd never be able to like. get the timing right. and it only feels right sometimes#but sometimes I'll be going about my day and then internally just “oh no. no yeah. yeah that's who i am” then i move on#this has been going on for weeks now#and it just LEAVES so i have to stand there and be like “OKAY !!!!!” and act like that's a normal thing that just happened#does kinning do this to people. I'm not doing it on purpose#this is probably like an autism thing#special interest but significantly worse

like guys i promise im aware blossomfall is meant to be a glass child. i just think she’s a poorly written one lmao
#tbh thats why my feelings on her are so strong. its a delicate topic for kids but time and time again#its been handled extremely poorly and just used as an excuse to hate disabled people#i think my exhaustion with these stories is bc they were sorta shoved down my throat by the school board growing up#because they heard ‘’wow you got TWO autistic brothers??? your life must SUCK ASS AND BALLS have this book abt how autism ruins families’’#wow cool i feel so much better guys. both about the ableism my family faces in general and about my undiagnosed autism#if i had to think. and i havent read this in forever so i could be misremembering. i think a decent example of a glass child trope#is the sister from ‘’wonder’’ (the book. idk what the movie did)#because while she’s an important character who struggles with internalized ableism#the focus is still on auggie and HIS struggles with his own disability and the ableism he faces as a result#and the sister isnt demonized for her feelings but she does still have to grapple with them#and accept her situation and that no one is at fault or anything. its just a consequence of an ableist society more than anything#again. been forever and ever since i read that book and iirc it does still have iffy shit like the one chapter on genetics#like to this day that sticks out as an uncomfortable chapter and idk if i can say its fantastic rep bc of that#but idk. i remember liking it fine as a kid#i always appreciated books that tried to get into multiple perspectives on the issues#also this is just me and ik it goes against the definition of the term#but man. kinda wish we’d get a glass child character thats also disabled and their disability is undiagnosed or ignored#for the sake of only prioritizing their sibling and bc they have to be ‘’the perfect abled child’’#because thats my story lol#wasnt allowed to be disabled or imperfect or need help because being a third disabled kid wouldve been too much

hornet does not get flustered, ever. ok? she doesn't blush and she doesn't freeze up. she'll think about her rival getting all up in her face, blowing a kiss, etc at 3am and her gaze will harden and be like 'hm. this is hatred. i have to kill her'
#lacenet#headcanon#it's extremely hard to tell even from an outside perspective that she has a crush!!!#her wires are hella crossed from all the trauma#silksong#and the autism as well#her modes are 'attack' and 'probably don't attack'#with a hefty side of emotional repression#(hornet internal monolouge) she blew me a KISS... she was trying to HUMILIATE me...... I MUST DEFEND MYSELF. (takes a bullet for lace)#(multiple times)#forge-daughter: that is not hatred. (thumbs up) good luck girl#lace finally is like ok. i'm pinning you against the wall because i want to kiss you. do you need a moment#and hornet has to process that information & unpack her shit for like 3 days before she comes back deciding that sounds nice actually#bobbinbugs originals#hornet

LIKE!!!!!! BEING TRANSGENDER BEING QUEER IN ANY WAY ISN'T HARMFUL BEHAVIOR!!!!!!! IT'S LITERALLY NOT EVEN A BEHAVIOR!!!!! IT'S JUST A THING THAT YOU ARE!!!!!! And SOMETIMES. You act accordingly! You may change your name and pronouns! You may seek HRT! You may look into surgery! You may only do a few of those things or any combination of those things (or maybe even none?!), whichever works for you and your sense of self-actualization. BUT. Doing ANY of those things. Is NOT HARMFUL BEHAVIOR!!!!!!!!!!! And in the sexuality department! If you have "same sex attraction" as they like to call it. Also not even a behavior. It's just a thing you Feel. But of course you gotta moralize Feelings, too. Forget about it!!!!! And if you Act on it. That's still not harmful. Who are you harming? Giving a little kissie to your same gendered homie???? Or getting handsy????? But on God. Do not get me started. My MAIN POINT. Is that there is literally no harm. There is nothing to correct here. There is nothing to fix here. Except for the hatred in your heart!!!!!! Your fear of the unknown!!!!!!!! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME ONGOING EVERLASTING TRAUMA OVER THIS THIS IS FUCKING STUPID‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
#SAME LOGIC CAM BE APLLIED TO AUTISM. AUTISM ITSELF IS NOT A BEHAVIOR.#but bestie i know i do not have the fucking words or capacity to get into it. i'm so sorry#i feel like. there's such a difference. for me personally. and i think it's entirely rooted in the time periods#i experienced each trauma/how long it's lived in me. like yeah homophobia/transphobia sucks ass#and can really fuck w me esp on a bad day. but most times i can move through it and articulate it#bc i was like. 15. i probably knew around 13. but i do feel like the brunt of it started at 15#the autism. i. internalized that i was a bad kid as soon as i was in kindergarten.#i internalized that i was a freak in 3rd grade.#i've had to work through SO much internaized ableism. as a previously high masking autistic individual.#my entire life i've felt like i've had to correct myself. and when the queerness became apparent#everyone made it their fucking job to correct me too.#THE APP. CRASHED. MID RANT. the power... of my rage.....#but like i was GONNA add. another key difference actually is i literally never understood Why#queerness in any form was 'bad' or sinful. like. straight up just never fucking got it.#like... why is it uniquely sinister.... for me (presumably something of a girl as it was understood at the time) to also like girls...#idk i just never fucking understood why it was such a fuckinh problem. why i 'should' have felt bad for it.#literally... who gives a shit....... and also??? women are people? just like guys? and what if i like her. what then.#idk arbitrary rules and autism don't really mix.#i have no greater point btw. it was probably Something about how

I don’t often talk abt bein a system on here anymore, alters don’t use their tags as often, and I rarely reblog posts about it mostly because when we did ppl would treat us… differently if that makes sense. like less of a person more of.. a novelty?
#nowadays unless it’s Chevy who can pretty much always tell anyway#we don’t tell anyone when we switch because it’s not worth the trouble yknow#esp since I’m basically always around unless I’m mad triggered#some days I’m more floaty than others- and that’s when like I worry about interacting with people because sometimes#some ppl are more combative than others#that problems pretty much been nipped in the bud but yknow it’s always good to keep in check#idk if it’s like internalized shame? I see other systems make their entire livelihood and hobbies off of being systems which is fine#but idk we don’t want to feel like a spectacle#only thinking about this because of college and we know that. anything can trigger us. be it negative or positive and we haven’t had to like#navigate that issue in a while. like how I haven’t had to mask in years autism wise#is this like internalized ableism

99% just my autism speaking here but something ive been noticing lately that im sorta kinda 😶 about is when ppl are like "I think you'll like this" but not bc they ACTUALLY think you'll like it, rather they just got into it and want you to also get into it so "I think you'll like this" is a nice personal hook. i love chill stuff as much as any other person ofc but given i don't divulge that EVER, what makes you think my berserk reading, made in abyss watching, drakengard playing ass would like YURU CAMP????
#gu6chan's musings#am i just taking the phrase too literally???? like i appreciate the thought but also.... what agitates me is the fact theres not any#when i say something among the lines of 'i think YOU'LL like this' or 'This made me think of you' like#its bc i think of THAT PERSON IN PARTICULAR or think THAT PERSON IN PARTICULAR would like it#again it's probably just autism brain taking figures of speech too literally but i HATE it bc it just makes me feel like#all the times i shared my interests meant nothinggggg typically i just ask 'neat; what makes you think ill like it?' and ppl start stumbling#and im like :(#whats rlly funny in this case is not only the fact i had only ever established my love of dark fantasy and mystery to this person#but they also flatout asked 'youre not really into modern media much are you' to which the answer was 'not much lol'#and i said the reasons i dont care for 'cute girls doing cute things' anime (re: k-on) is bc if i have the time to watch it then i at LEAST#wanna spend it watching a series that's???? not 'the point of it is to relax :)'??? i can sleep for that#anyways like 2 days later they said they said they think id REALLY like this new anime they've been watching lately and I was like 'oh?'#and it was yuru camp.... and internally i was like 'are you fucking kidding me' but on the outside i was like 'oh sweet what makes you think#id like it? id love some new media recommendations especially if they're newer shows bc ive been having SO MUCH TROUBLE trying to find#something interesting that isn't from 2008'#and they sent me a picture of the most generic anime girl ever and they're like 'it has really cute girls' and then i just wanted to kms#like.... this isn't bc you thought id like it; is it.....#wanted to die internally but i played it cool and was like 'oh no; i appreciate it thoughtfulness and all but i don't think this is for me'#also the time where someone recommended signalis to me and i was like 'oh?' and they were like 'YEAH its SO good the people who made it#were even INSPIRED off of Nier' KNOWING FULL WELL I DIDN'T LIKE IT AND THE AMOUNT MY ENTHUSIASM JUST DIED... i was like#'oh. well that will be a pass then' and they tried backpedaling like 'well it's not SUPER inspired; i didn't know you HATED nier :(' like#my past 15 posts on my twitter werent me realising that the game was absolute garbage and calling it the most regretful thing ive ever spent#money on during my attempted playthrough 😭 i was like 'thanks; but I'll pass' to which they then responded by promptly sending me#signalis memes i had absolutely no idea how to respond to WITHOUT making it seem like i was super annoyed so i was just kinda 😶 and didn't#reply and they were like 'sorry :(' and i was like 'haha it's okay! i just have absolutely no idea how to respond to this joke i dont#understand at ALL'#was probably one of the more awkward interactions ive ever had but genuinely speaking i was so INTERESTED until they brought up that it was#inspired by nier i literally psychically felt all the enthusiasm leaving my body from 'damn; i might actually have to look into this' to#'oh well that's a bullet dodged' did not trust the backtracking either....
