Disability on Screen
A collection of film and television characters and moments where disability is represented in a way that has made me feel seen or that I would like to see more often.

My father and the CEO are friends from university. I… benefited from nepotism. Don’t just let people walk all over you, you idiot. And stop acting pitiful saying you benefited from nepotism!

No. It's been about us doing something important. And that's what it still needs to be about.

Listen, Nishimiya. I was talking to you before I got here. It was within a dream. Looks like I was trying to give up on everything. But that wasn’t right. I felt the same way as you but I realized it didn’t mean that I deserved to die. I want to apologize to the others too.

Don’t act like you’re going to listen to her whale stories forever and then tell her to stop not even after a year. If you’re going to hurt her like that, you shouldn’t start anything at all. I’m telling you this now, if you think your feelings are temporary, don’t be nice to her. My feelings aren’t temporary!

At this point, I think we have to accept the fact that [mr robot] is a legitimate existence in your life. That’s giving him too much power. In order for us to figure this out, we have to acknowledge-

#stranger things#autistic coded character#eleven#characters with developmental trauma#not accepting discourse on this lol#every argument I see that eleven isn't autistic is basically oriented around the fact that she clearly has developmental trauma#newsflash: trauma disorders and autism are not mutually exclusive#eleven displays clear signs of autistic behaviors#as well as autistic ways of socializing#she had specific vulnerabilities which are explainable through autism#she displays divergence from her peers with whom she was raised#difficulty communicating#the signals are endless#she is absolutely developmentally disabled#in addition to having a trauma disorder#again these two things can and do co-occur#please have some nuance

I hate when I can’t hold in my loneliness. This crying has been happening too often, every other week now. What do normal people do when they get this sad? They reach out to friends or family, I think. That’s not an option.
