i never see people talk about it, so

happy july to autistics who can not listen to the same song more than once or they'll go mad

happy july to autistics who can't be near stimming people. you're not a bad person, you're disabled

happy july to autistics who can't eat the same food more than one or two times in a row. you're not faking it, you have food restrictions

happy july to autistics who panic when there's too much comfort food

happy july to autistics who watch videos on mute

happy july to autistics who have a routine that's good for them but who are lonely, bored or tired. autism sucks sometimes, agrh!

happy july to autistics who are scared to use their comfort items. i hope you can easily repair them/ask for help and replacements aren't hard to find. you deserve using things that bring you joy, that's what they're here for

happy july to autistics who get bouts of energy when they're so active/talkative/excited that they are exhausted and disappointed in the end

happy july to autistics who are so involved in their special interests they don't have the emotional resources to interact with them. i hope there's a way for you to engage with your favorite things slowly and quietly

happy july to every autistic person who has complicated feelings about their autism, who doesn't feel proud and who sometimes wishes they weren't autistic

autistic community on tumblr is great and it helped me see so many of my "quirks" and needs as neutral and common qualities, but autism is still a disorder and it's okay to feel frustrated with it, it's okay to complain and it's okay to ask for help!

I'm convinced that Vlad Dracula (the character, not the Impaler) was just an autistic person in power surrounded by peasants. He was just trying to meet his needs with resources he had and all the stories surrounding him are just peasants' attempts to understand his actions.

- "Sun kills Dracula" - sensory overstimulation:

(Peasant): My Lord, you should go outside, the sun wouldn't kill you.

(Overstimulated Vlad): *hisses*

(Surprised peasant): Oh, it would...

- "sleeps in coffin" - hug simulation, since weighted blankets wasn't invented yet.

- "feeds on blood" - comfort food with uniform taste and texture. Also, many cultures cook blood sausages. So, that could be his actual comfort food.

- "would die from stick in the heat" - who wouldn't? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

There are 150 million orphans in the world. If you ever decide to have children, - get a ready made one, - don't overproduce!

We as society have to abolish motorcycles as the second to worst vehicles after private jets.

What do you mean the engine that sounds like a jet engine and is able to pull a lightweight car is imbedded instead in a frame not much bigger than a bicycle and intended for one person ride?

It's just a pollution generator in all meanings: unnecessary CO2 pollution and atrocious noise pollution in common spaces.

And it's not an excuse that "it's just fun". Cocaine in cola also was for fun, but we got rid of things that are harmful to society.

And to anyone who says that it's none of your business what noise others create in common spaces, I wish to you always be sitting in common spaces next to the person with nastiest indigestion and pepper-spray level of farts 🤗

Also, great screenshot from the movie. I haven't noticed that the bird made the different expressions with it's eyes.

All three different tones of disappointment thought ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He made it 🥺

making john podcast watson the most chronically awkward bitchless man ever

adhd john 🤝 autism sherlock

AUTISM REPRESENTATION ‼️‼️

ear defenders, mention of special interests, hyperfixations, hyperfixation foods (tomato pasta), sensitivity to noise and textures, the whole i observe people because I'm trying to understand, masking, asking about social conventions, the not being good at tests, forgetting that people aren't on the same wavelength as you, showing affection in your own way once you find your own way that works for you (HIGH FIVE), exposing yourself to the world being a terribly overstimulating experience AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH im fucking obsessed this is everything to me

marianna ‼️‼️‼️‼️

sherlock holmes has tiktok

john being like an angry left wing millennial, constantly complaining about rich people and twitter being called X

etc

Some unrepostable additions:

Similar to 10: "my enemies succeed this time"

But fr, technically correct is the best kind of correct. Therefore, "a mere fraction of my power" is my the most favorite now 💀

jokes to make after failure that aren’t self-deprecating:

I’m the best to ever do it

Nobody saw that (best if said loudly)

No one’s ever done it like me

I could be President/they should make me President

Behold, a mere fraction of my power!

The public wants to be me soooooo bad

I’m an expert in (thing you just failed at)

How could this have happened to god’s favorite princess?

Nothing ibuprofen and a glass of water cant fix

I’m being sabotaged
