No one wants to talk about how intimate jump starting someones car is.

when you talk shit about drug addicts who aren’t “functioning members of society” you are talking shit about disabled people. this is not up for debate.

I think I'm either following (or interacting with) the #soap tag a lot (because of call of duty), and now I keep getting things on my dash referencing actual soap - never before have I been bombarded with so much soap art, soap-making content, discussion of eating bars of soap etc.

Encased in resin, 840 bars of soap stand frozen in time 🧖‍♀️꩜

As a medium/lower support needs autistic who works with young higher support needs autistic:

We all matter. We all have the same diagnosis. We all deserve to be treated with dignity and respect.

But we are not the same.

I can mask and might be seen as 'odd' or 'weird' in public. The students I work with are seen as 'dangerous' and 'practically little kids'.

I can go to university and work with accommodations. The students I work with likely will never live independently and a few might find jobs that support them but still pay them less than an abled worker.

I have full control of my finances. The students I work with aren't allowed to make independent financial decisions, even if capable.

If I say 'no,' I'm making a choice. The students I work with can't say 'no' without being labeled as defiant and difficult.

I can feed myself, bathe myself, and take care of myself with extreme challenges. The students I work with are unable to take care of themselves without high levels of support/one on one support.

I had an IEP in high school but was mainstreamed in classes. The students I work with take separate classes and some rarely get to interact with their abled peers.

Our experiences are fundamentally different. Higher support needs autistics will experience a specific type of ableism I never will, and can never fully understand.

Lower support needs autistics need to stop saying we understand what higher support needs autistics are going through and then present autism as only being disabling because of society/lack of acceptance because that is dangerous. We need to stop saying every autistic person is capable of everything if given the right support because that leaves out huge parts of our community who will never be able to do certain things, regardless of support.

We are worthy of existence regardless of our abilities.

Autism is a spectrum. It is not the same for every autistic person. Autism acceptance and advocacy has to come with accepting, acknowledging, and listening to our higher support needs peers.

very relatable, honestly.

Let it be known that if Simon "Ghost that is not nice" Riley is the voice of reason we're all in big trouble

just remembered when i posted like "crazy how nobody in history has ever stolen food and nobodys ever seen it happen because it never has and if you thought you saw it happen no you didnt" and somebody replied like "uhhh actually yes they do. i worked in a grocery store i think i would know". that was embarrassing. how could somebody be so wrong. i dont know what they think they saw but nobody has ever stolen food so it cant have been that
