what are your thoughts on the asd level system in replacement of functioning labels?

the euphemism treadmill rolls on. to claim that "levels" are somehow a purer, more "objective," and less reductionistic way of measuring ... degree of autism? distance from "normalcy"? proximity to neuronormative demands? is honestly insulting. like any other description of super-generalized "support needs," it has little bearing on the lived realities of actual autistic people.

as always, i advocate deep listening, specificity, and openness to change in conversations about what all of us as autistics want and need. generalized labels do the exact opposite of this, fixing us in place in relation to highly arbitrary and oppressive cultural tropes of functionality, productivity, and intelligence. i want to be understood as a whole person, not as something whose deviance can be quantified by medical authorities.

plus like...this shit was designed by the dsm. why on earth are we behaving as though the apa designs anything with the best interests of ND/Madppl in mind. levels, like all other formalized ways of seeing/marking autism, are designed with the ultimate goal of ameliorating rather than celebrating difference.

ok now i am so so curious how many followers do you think i have?

You seem like a super popular blogger to me based on you regularly getting lots of notes and asks, so I want to say around my follower count (20k-25k). but I also know you monitor your followers and don't want your blog to get too big as that makes it harder to feel in control, plus you're very outspoken about controversial topics so that deters people to a certain degree as well. I'm going to guess around 10k followers

★ infamous fashion edits ★ (2/?)

“Flor Majano – known as ‘Flor’ to their fans – is taking the music world by storm. She didn’t knock politely. She kicked down the door with force, a turbulent beginning that’s not at all out of the ordinary for edgy grunge band Pushpin Piledrive. Influenced by metal and punk bands alike, the subgenres of each respective one evident in Pushpin Piledrive’s emphatic attitude – Flor attributes everything about them to the music they grew up with: grunge, numetal, riot grrrls, crust punk, and everything inbetween. They don’t feel drawn to one style more than others (much like their taste in music) and prefer hand-me-downs to brand names. In Flor’s own words, she wants her style to tell as much of a story as their music: handmade and lived-in.”

ok so it’s the last day of february but i said i would do it and i finally forced myself to concentrate enough today post-work to make it happen so here are my 2022 beauty/skincare favs. ty to the ever-lovely @lovergirl for tagging me 🤍🤍🤍

1. Charlotte Tilbury’s Walk of Shame/Walk of No Shame lipstick - perfect rosy, bitten lips, not quite red and not quite pink but both, at least on me. Used to wear Bond Girl/MI Kiss on the daily but then discovered this. Like that one but more punchy. Still go for that on occasion but WoS is my holy grail now.

2. Chanel Chance eau Tendre - easy to wear to work, it’s light, floral, fresh, hint of citrus. Probably overpriced for how low the sillage is and that it doesn’t feel like the most complex scent ever but I like it and it doesn’t feel like just water in a bottle nor cleaning product in a bottle.

3. A’Pieu Pure Block spf45 - Korean sunscreens are fucking amazing and better than French ones any day

4. LA Girl Pro-Conceal corrector in ‘light beige’ - a lot of people think this is too thick but I find a small dot that I can blend out with my foundation brush or fingers will correct my dark circles without needing setting or a concealer on top. I have really bad creasage, I’m dry as hell and I have darker undereyes. This saved me. It’s getting harder to find so I’m looking for alts while also stocking up when I can find this.

5. BotanicChoice Retionol Gel - Idk what the concentration of this is so don’t ask. But it worked for me and I’m already chronically dry. It took about two months for me to adjust. Now I’m at the point where I probably need a higher concentration because I can use this each night as long as I moisturize after but for now I’m content to stay at this level. It took a while, but it’s been close to two years now using it on and off and all my surface level congestion got better, my texture improved, my skin became a lot closer to “glass skin” than it was before (but still not the full on tret kind of glass skin, but remember I’m dry as hell). Their website is shit but I’m about to run out of my supply and I need to figure out what to do next.

6. Rimmel Maxi Blush in Wild Card - What the Dior Rosyglow is for fair people, this is for me. Instead of creating that babydoll flushed glow, this creates a vibrant, pink-red peonies in full bloom kind of flush on my tone. Blends out so well considering it’s highly pigmented. You can use it softly or go all the way, it’s beautiful no matter what.

7. Maybelline City Bronzer in 200 - only golden toned bronzer from the drugstore to exist that I know of. Beautiful - not grey, not orange, not pink or red, not even neutral. Golden.

8. St. Ives Collagen Moisturizer - they need to stop making scrubs and stick to this moisturizer. It’s quite light though. Despite being so dry, due to my dermatitis, heavier moisturizers cause congestion for me if I use them like two nights in a row. This has a really light texture, gives me glazed skin for a while when I use it and has ceramides. Haven’t found anything that has worked for me better yet. It might exist but I gave up looking after a while since this is cheap and doesn’t cause any issues for me. Only thing is it’s relatively light for a nighttime moisturizer, but you can always layer with a humectant of some kind. Ideally, if I wasn’t wearing makeup, I would reapply this sometime in the afternoon.

9. Maybelline Lifter Gloss - this shade is Topaz which I love. I think it’s the Fenty GlossBomb original shade dupe. These really are so comfortable, buttery, un-sticky, un-gloopy, moisturizing glosses. I wake up the next day with soft lips. I wasn’t a gloss girl until these came into my life. I get it now. I also like Petal and Opal. They have more and I want them.

Okaaaay that’s all from me for now. I tag @capricornpropaganda @thecapricornwifey @afropiscesism @longlashedingenue @hazyhhoney @smokedsalmoniloveyou if you would like to!!
