#and that's perfectly valid

congratulations to voyager for portraying the first gay teenager homophobic parent relationship through 2 middle aged guys played by the same guy at the same time

[my-autism-adhd-blog]

Why self-diagnosed autistics are valid

medical diagnosis can be expensive

humans are the experts on their own minds

family may prevent assessment

diagnosis criteria is a poor checklist of stereotypes

diagnosis criteria ignores gender, race, sexuality, culture & more

medical diagnosis confirms autism, but doesn't create it

discrimination within the medical profession may prevent diagnosis.

Assessment waiting lists often long

medical trauma may make assessment unfeasible

I love that Spain gave zero fucks and talked about Gaza even though they were warned not to

No they actually gave a lot of fucks and it's really important. They are one of the broadcasters that have spoken up the most about Israel's participation.

Choosing to talk about Gaza is deliberate and it takes balls

They were surprised about the public voting in Spain towards Israel and have demanded the numbers of the votes and were first giving vague answers and then a split per type of vote (text/online/...) and no divide per country

So now they have officially requested an audit for the votes. This is good! They're verifying if they're legit. Spain won't let anything pass and I applaud them for speaking up

see the reason why solangelo holds a very special place in my heart is actually the fact that they're canonically dating. i think not only because i came from fandoms where queer ships were atmost only implied due to censorship, but because i adore queer couples, especially teenagers (since theyre around my age and it feels more realistic to me) navigating through their relationship.

sure, nico and will havent known each other as long as percabeth, and some might even say that they rushed dating each other too easily. and because of that, maybe nico and will arent on the same level of trust and understanding a couple like percabeth has, maybe they still have a shit ton of issues that they need to deal with, especially those that are obstacles to their relationship.

but does that stop them from loving each other?

tsats shows us that despite the misunderstandings and the conflicts, will and nico are willing to overcome those- to try and understand the other better, to fix the rift between the two of them- because they simply love each other so much. they enjoy being in other's presence, and they embrace their similarities and differences like it's a part of them. that it's never too late to apologize, to give a second chance, and to change, when you know you love someone that deeply.

i never believed in a perfect solangelo, where they are soulmates who automatically understand each and every part of themselves just because fate says so. and although tsats wasn't perfect, i'd honestly rather take a flawed relationship between two deeply traumatized teenagers than the former.

No thoughts, head empty, just Mitsuba expressing one of the most basic human desires. No matter how many times people try to tell me that his feelings are manufactured or that he’s inherently evil, I will never buy it nor will it ever be true within a canon context. Cool concept for an au I guess but canon Mitsuba is extremely emotional and empathetic and is one of the more redeemable ones in a series full of morally gray characters. Him being sassy and struggling with dark thoughts does not make him a bad person idk what some fans are on about

everytime someone says a version of "what if Shifty is intentionally manipulative and maybe even evil–" a part of me dies a little inside

I think a lot about Leo’s tendency to push his way into the spotlight despite clearly being a natural in the shadows. Hell, you could argue that his worst moments are when he’s forcing himself onstage, and his best are when he does things no one notices until it’s already been done.

Hilaaaaaaarious!

He’s so goofy. How can you not love him?

yea i rewatched the s1 finale. did a lil doodle about it

[aq2003]

i think it is very silly to react to dropout's response like "why were people mad, you know the cast and crew are pro palestine" yeah exactly and if they weren't i don't think attempting to push a petition/boycott to them about this would do anything. the result of them acknowledging this was a net good. twenty thousand dollars

@lawlightweek2024 Day 2: Soul mates (sort of)!

L runs into a newly brandished Detective Light Yagami at a park, and the two easily reconnect~.

This wasn't my original plan for this prompt, but I still wanted to get across that these dudes just kind of... belong together, y'know?

When Only Friends is over and everyone has moved on, we will always remember that the fandom had such an outrage over a two second clip of a man touching another man’s hip tattoo that the director had to apologize and edit every version to put the scene back in
