Blog for stuff

[keyboardsmashorsomething]

I’m 18 now. For the blogs that care about that. I doubt this will be all that relevant given the whole “mostly sex-repulsed asexual” thing. But you never know. Mostly adding this so I don’t forget to do it and then get blocked for liking a post. Not sure if it works like that.

Again, this won’t be super relevant I don’t think. I’m way more excited to be able to get a library card without my parents signature (seriously why is that necessary in the first place), to be able to try to get medical help without them calling my parents (oh wait it still shows up on their insurance never mind whatever), and to be able to stop my parents from reading through my purchase history (it is a bit creepy and I don’t know why you do it, I’m not buying drugs). Being able to follow blogs that write explicit fanfiction or whatever is kind of an afterthought.

something that really messes with me to this day is the fact i was diagnosed as autistic when i was about ten and didnt actually get told this straight up until i was almost 15. i guess i was supposed to assume i was diagnosed as autistic from the evaluation i didnt fully understand the purpose of nor remember very clearly by the time i started wondering if i *was*??? and somehow this isnt even the worst mental healthcare blunder my parents have made regarding my care so. yay.

It's genuinely frustrating how often this happens like "please communicate it to people if you diagnose them with something" seems like the most basic of requests and yet...

This is actually really common when you’re autistic.

I was diagnosed at around 5 or 6, but I don’t think I found out until 11-ish. And even then I only found out by snooping around in my school records (which listed that I’m autistic for my teachers) and then confronting my parents about the document.

Literally everyone around me could tell I was visibly autistic to the point of one classmate comparing me to an autistic fictional character and another just using the word “autistic” about me. But I asked my parents about it and they gave extremely evasive answers, which my literal brain interpreted as a no. Because if it was a yes why would they hide it?

When I asked them why they hid it from me they said they didn’t want me to grow up being ashamed of myself. Which… like… do you think autism is shameful? Because that’s what I heard and internalized when you said that. Also, was there an age you were ever planning on telling me? If I hadn’t gone looking myself? Or was your hope that I would grow out of it and become normal and never have to know?

I have so many questions for them.

But yeah, your parents can and will hide your autism diagnosis from you for as long as possible.

Level 1: Asylums are scary because there's crazy people there.

Level 2: We shouldn't treat mental health facilities as objects of horror because it stigmatises mental illness.

Level 3: Asylums are scary because there's psychiatrists there.

I don’t want to celebrate Father’s Day. I just don’t.

He’s not someone I feel connected to enough to do that.

But I have to.

Anti-endos kill me with "reclaiming plural"

IT WASN'T MADE FOR THEM TO BEGIN WITH

"Endos steal our terms!"

What are y'all doing though? Trying to make something inclusive into something hateful

Sad sad sad

[the0peratingsystem]

I wish plurality was popular enough for me to watch half-assed video essays about "plurality in media" while I work. If any mid-tier youtuber wants to get in on this, it's literally an untapped market...

The worst thing you can say to a disabled person is “I hope you get sent to SuperHell where everyone insults your local evil politicians using words that describe/are the names of your disabilities.”

Happy pride especially towards EVERY a-spec person

shoutout to loveless aromantics, aplatonics, and afamilials this pride month <3 you don't need to be "fixed", and you do not have to experience any type of attraction or love in order to be real and human.

[afam-culture-is]

Afamilial culture is not understanding why people give a fuck about their family members. They are just people you happen to be related to. Why do you care about them so much. It's strange.

dear fellow autistic people: if you consistently come out of doctor’s appointments feeling emotionally (and sometimes physically) hurt, but you feel bad for feeling hurt because “the doctors were being nice”, the doctors were not being nice.

this is something I had to learn the hard way. doctors often dress up their words all pretty so you can’t sue them. I, for a long time, mistook this as genuine kindness. It’s not. It’s just being professional. even if they didn’t call you a slur or anything that doesn’t mean they weren’t ignoring your needs.

trust what your body and emotions tell you. if you are feeling hurt, there is a reason, and you need to listen to it. please listen to it.
