I'm trying to prove something.
You’ve done it- you crazy man you’ve done it!
Don’t worry, we don’t have Elon Musk here…
But hipsters beware, you’re in for a scare!
This isn’t Twitter. This isn’t your average every day site. This is Tumblr. We’re crazy. We’re weird. We don’t fit in. We’re the fangirls, the fujoshis, the Superwholockers, and the Steven Universe Critical bloggers. We forgot what “normal” was. So if you’re expecting a normal website…
the first pride was a riot
A Loki Laufeyson on the outside and a Loki Laufeyson on the inside….dang
your tumblr avatar is who you are on the outside, and your discord avatar is your true self
Vent poem
TW: intrusive thoughts, bad thoughts, kinda gory, suicide, oh also it sucks
i want to tear my skin off
maybe then i’ll like myself
it’s uncomfortable
it’s irritating
it’s torture
i hate it
i want to rip my heart out
maybe then i won’t feel like this
every
other
night
it hurts
i hate it
i want to bash my brain in
maybe then the thoughts will stop
it’s annoying
it’s terrifying
it’s too loud
i hate it
i want to die
maybe then i’ll like myself
maybe then i won’t feel this way
maybe then it’ll be quiet
maybe then..
i’ll love it
AMEN
Well...um..
Okay, deep breaths. I know this is hard for you if you’ve always considered yourself neurotypical.
You might be thinking of the “Autistic screeching” jokes, that you’ve heard them used, that you’ve used them yourself.
You might be thinking “but I’m smart/social/normal!”
It’s okay. Unpack your defensiveness.
ESPECIALLY if you’re a girl. So many Autistic girls are never diagnosed, and I’m going to try to make sure you’re not one of them.
- If you are often “in fandoms” and you have hyperfixations with them - whether they change or not - that could be a Special Interest (SpIn for short), a term for an Autistic person’s fixation.
- If you consider yourself “smart but lazy” - Autistic people tend to be “smarter” than most neurotypicals, but often lack energy. This is sometimes dismissed as “a gifted person who just isn’t trying”.
- If you have “resting bitch face”, remember that Autistic people usually don’t express emotion in their face or body language, so it could be one of the key signs for Autism.
- If you are “sensitive towards light/sound/temperature” and often find yourself “overreacting” (and feel childish / have people tell you that you’re childish because of it), you could be experiencing sensory overload.
- If you “enjoy fidgeting” or just really like good smells/tastes/textures beyond normalcy, you could be stimming, which is extremely common in both people with ADHD and Autism.
- If you are “emotional because of other people’s feelings” or “unempathetic/unemotional when it comes to other people”, you could be experiencing hyperempathy/hypoempathy, especially if you tend to fluctuate between the two. Remember that being hypoempathetic doesn’t make you a bad person: you can still experience compassion/sympathy like anybody else!
- If you consider yourself “weird”, remember that Autistic minds work differently than Allistic minds, and that this could mean that you’re not just “quirky/odd/unusual”, you’re Autistic.
Don’t panic, the Autistic community is beautiful and a lovely place to be in. And remember that self-diagnosis is 100% okay, good, and valid.
Everybody can reblog this, whether you are Autistic or Allistic/neurotypical ❤️
Respectfully. Ouch.
“Wilford was in there…”
Your actions have consequences, Captain.
Heyo- this seems important!
Taking effect July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will change from 800-273-8255 to the three digit code of 988. Especially with families and communities reeling from back to back tragedies, it is super important to share this information!
Repeat: Starting July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will be 988
