>breadtuber makes content about sociological stuff

>they use a lot of big words, but in a practical way, to convey meaningful ideas that they're genuinely interested in exploring

>they use philosophical and historical references in this way too

>they're being very clear in terms of the language and terminology they use, but the ideas are (sometimes) so complex and counterintuitive they're still genuinely hard to understand even if you're paying attention

>it comes off *almost* like they're resorting to well-done intellectualism as a defense mechanism

>not in a grifter kinda way, more as if they're trying to cut their way out of some of the parasocial mess that comes with being an online figure by being able to say "look, I expressed my ideas clearly and concisely and so you don't get to make it any more personal than that"

>almost like they see the communication part of their job as more easily done by sticking to a script

>a few years later you find out about their autism diagnosis

Who could've seen it coming?

I know that was a shitpost for the latest Danny Phantom fandom meme, but I'm genuinely impressed and how authentic it sounds. How much of Dash's monologue is real advice, and how do you know all of that? Do you work out?

Yes I'm so sorry to inform my good people of Tumblr that I've secretly been a part of the gym fandom for all this time. I've only recently come out as a gymbro in this phandom via my creation of the current dp gym bro au meme that I've forced upon everyone in this good holy christian space. I mix whey protein into my overnight oats, I track my macros, and I have a closet full of Gym Girlie Outfits™️.

And just know it's a badge of honor that I carry to be able to say I've converted multiple members of the Danny Phantom phandom into regular gym goers as well 💪

new collection i want to start but can't think of a name for: things that expand your vision of what is possible in the world. "oh, you can do that?" things that blew your mind a little bit

does not need to be impressive. in fact many are relatively mundane.

examples:

death's dynamic shroud live cover of BAE (digital live 2020) made me realize that if you sample the vocals from someone else's song you can also sing those vocals yourself whenever you want

sakina agoshi (nullmeta)'s fish shaped hair... so cartoonish yet so plausible

FUCK. I didn’t even mention Sky

very minor thing I still definitely deserve a medal for:

being raised catholic, and now as an adult repeatedly falling in love with characters that fandoms like to declare catholic, but still managing to reject those headcanons because at heart I'm too much of a stickler for accurate analysis to get behind them when i know the person in question is really meant to be anglican/episcopalian/whatever other flavor of christian

i am being, as the poets say, so brave about it

like, I get why people don't like edgelord style characters and find them exhausting, i really do. but I was raised by a style of book that exclusively features edgelord protagonists that intentionally bars them from experiencing a single moment of dignity in their entire lives, and I think that explains why I love them, actually

As a dedicated grey ridge fan, a fanatic at times (honestly I’ve read grey ridge so many times for comfort) i adore Rhaenyra’s relationship with little Helaena. I especially love how protective and gentle she is! Such a perfect mother. I was wondering Molter if you have any headcannons about Helaena being a mommy’s girl. (Also I absolutely the love the grey ridge prequel! Such a great read! And Leaf and Blade is among my favorites!) much love Molter!

Man, do any other autistic/ADHD folk not like wearing rings because of sensory issues? Like, rings look super cool and alternative and I'd totally wear them but I just cannot. They feel weird on my skin and I can't draw my attention away from them, and if I wear them for long enough, the uncomfortable feeling causes me to dissociate a little. But the feeling of having something in that area is still nice and pretty grounding, I just prefer to wear a watch or bracelet instead of a ring.

I know what I do love to wear? Necklaces! I love stimming by pulling the chain against my neck or fiddling with the end or messing with the pendent!! I literally have to limit the amount of necklaces I wear so my neck doesn't feel too heavy, and because I have one necklace that I wear all the time (a stim necklace with spinning circles on the end that I'm addicted to lol), that limit is usually one or two more at most. But I have so many cool necklaces compared to just an old ring or two in my jewelry collection.

(Loid's first day of working in Albrecht's lab)

Albrecht: Loid, this is Kalymos. She is allowed to go wherever she pleases, make sure the door is always slightly ajar so she can enter the room. On the table is a bowl of water - it is her bowl and it must always be full. She starts her day by eating two vitamins, mix it in with her kibble. That said - she must always have kibble freely available. NEVER buy paste-based wet food, only fillets. Her favorite is tuna, but tuna with squid or with shrimp is fine too. You can occasionally feed her a snack, but no more than 20 bits per day. Do you understand?

Loid: Yes, sir.

Albrecht: Good, now we can proceed to the labs.

"Isn't there some way we can get together on this?"

"Oh, sure. You confess and I'll arrest you."

[dandyshucks]

i think the simultaneously funniest and most frustrating thing abt my brain when things like this happen is that my brain freezes up a bit and can only think of like "aw gee whiz now xyz mundane thing i had scheduled into today won't happen" like girl WHAT there is shit going down and thats what ur thinking about ???

[switchytransboy]

i really do feel like a big portion of my stress is just my adhd and autism battling it out

i get upset/anxious/stressed at the things in my life that aren’t a part of my usual day to day routine…

but then i also dread and get upset about some aspects of my routine that stay the same and don’t change enough day to day bc i get bored/dread about it

it’s like PICK A SIDE BRAIN!!!!

[lokilysolbitch]

i ran out of room in the tags but i want to make it known that this was only a small percentage of the things that got predicted. it's my turn to write a chapter now and i want my character to get a tattoo of 9 knives down her back bc it's a tarot reference but i'm afraid of what that might cause so i have not written said chapter. im literally just scared

Shout out to the day i killed the queen via AO3, legendary (name of the fanfic is jigens sick adventure, yes it is a sickfic)
