Did I spend some of this week outlining ideas for a Good Omens AU? Yes. Has it written itself? Sadly not. Clearly, there is no greater tragedy than the writer realising they must actually write at some point /s

In the meantime, enjoy your regularly-scheduled memes 🥳

Previous meme dump!

EDIT: now with bonus meme!

A friend commented that

“This is what it’s like being autistic and masking your traits. Except that there is no rest.”

AND I RELATE SO MUCH TO THEIR STATEMENT

[neuroticboyfriend]

hey you. are you frustrated with yourself? are you beating yourself for not coping better? for not doing things you know can help you? for being afraid, angry, or depressed? ask yourself that, honestly.

if the answer is yes, i want you to know one thing: you're gonna be okay. it may not feel like it, but you're doing your best. you can't hate yourself into knowing better, and hating yourself still won't help you with the things you do know. knowledge and awareness and willpower can only get you so far.

you're not a computer. you're not a textbook. you're a living breathing being. you have feelings and beliefs, and it's going to take some time to work through those. it's okay to be scared. it's okay to be frustrated. it's okay to not be okay. no one can be good and fine all the time, and many of us can't be so often.

so, this is your sign to meet yourself where you're at. keep your head where your feet are. you're exactly where you're meant to be. you can't force yourself to be someone you're not, and the only way this gets better is if you accept yourself first.

so just focus on that. what you're experiencing right now will pass. future you will figure things out. for now, just be. just be. that's all you have to do. you exist and that's good. you're doing great. keep going. you'll be surprised at what you're capable of. ♡

I hate that I can’t even talk about how my autism affects me without allistic people immediately assuming I’m using it as an excuse or accusing them of ableism. No you asshole, I’m literally just trying to provide context as to why I misunderstood you

[mar-im-o]

if you select other or more than one please provide context!

I wish they had an emoji to show my excitement about some things rather than just having to do a keyboard smash to show genuine excitement

Autism culture is not remembering important/most parts of your childhood, but remembering perfectly that one show you were obsessed with

!!!

[aceforwhatevenisthis]

Hey, real quick, go bury your face in something soft. A stuffed animal. A plush blanket. A pillow. Your pet. Your favorite shirt or hoodie. Do it.

Was it comforting, even in the slightest? If not, well, you tried. Either way, remember that the little things can bring you goodness, and all those little things will add up. They may not overshadow all the bad, but it certainly does help.

You may never be truly comfortable, but odds are, there's something around you that can give you some comfort. And that's a lot better than nothing.
