If you want to write a dumb little story with a dumb little plot and ridiculously silly characters. No one's stopping you. Genuinely, no one should be allowed to stop you. Write that dumb story with your whole heart and don't hold back.

i'm sorry but i don't think we should call this the "autism website" when there's still posts with tons of notes mocking people who:
struggle with social skills / have anxiety around social settings
are unemployed / unable to work certain jobs
have intense or "age-inappropriate" interests
haven't had certain life experiences that are deemed universal/essential
struggle with personal hygiene
don't have any friends or dating experience
don't go outside much or at all
take things literally / don't get sarcasm/jokes
have unusual ways of speaking
generally aren't "normal"

I bought some foot brace things to stretch my joints out and do some opposite pressure on the inexorable process of developing horrible bunions (you can't win this one, human feet just can't take the pressure, but you can stave it off for a long time) and I'm looking at these gross blue nylon and Velcro shits that are like physically spreading my toes using little miniaturized bondage straps etc and getting mad that it's now impossible to buy any modern medical assistive device that isn't profoundly desexed. they definitely do this on purpose, if you need a wrap or a brace or a sling etc it's going to look like a piece of really ugly sports equipment or a child's Velcro shoe. god forbid you want your cane to look dapper or formal. god forbid you want a """"waist trainer"""" that doesn't look like a sausage casing (just get a corset seriously). or a sling that isn't scratchy shitty nylon. I could write a big post about the distancing of disability from aesthetics and the insistence that all imperfect function is temporary and therefore investiture in beautiful medical items is eccentric. you can get nice looking canes if you really look but certainly not in a hospital or medical supply store, your insurance won't pay for a chestnut piece with a brass handle. the bunion straps that could be so interesting in leather or even canvas are reduced to fuzzy rustling clown shoes. extremely annoying. and infantilizing frankly. and just ugly

*percy controlling akhlys’ poison to use it against her and choking her on her own tears and saliva*
annabeth: never do it again. never do anything like it again. i’m begging you
many years later
*percy and annabeth’s teenage children being held at knifepoint by enemies, seconds away from being killed*
annabeth: percy, do it

I keep on hearing people go all "The voice of the Smitten is such a creep. All he wants in the princess is someone to control and keep as a pretty object. He'd drop the princess if she wasn't the perfect petite maiden like in the damsel route." and I will not stand for the Smitten slander.
Like- He's been in love with her as a burning corpse ghost lady:
A terrifying ghost woman who wants to bring fear and chaos to the world:
And even a murderous blade monster woman who would kill you and enjoy every second of it:
Like, he ALWAYS loves the princess no matter what she looks like or how she acts, he loves her for being herself no matter what or who she is. That's the point of his character and I'm tired of people slandering my boy.
