Intro post
I'm an agender trans man (he/they)
I'm a recovering addict
I have autism and functional neurological disorder
My special interests are creative writing and The Mountain Goats (I'm a relatively new listener)
My favorite TV shows are Bojack Horseman, Breaking Bad, The West Wing, Sherlock and Community
I want to become an English teacher, art therapist or founder of a mental health/neurodiversity nonprofit
always remember gay men are the reason we dont have to pay for public bathrooms in canada
WAIT HUH??? IM CANADIAN????? WHY HAVE I NEVER HEARS ABOUT THIS UNTIL NOW??????
two gay men got arrested for fucking in a public bathroom but they argued since you had to pay for it it was a hotel and it was fine. their defence worked and we dont have to pay for bathrooms anymore
Ok guys I know we want to celebrate victories in queer history but
1. Googling "Canada gay sex pay toilets" just brings up a bunch of reblogs of this post
2. There does not seem to have been any sort of norm of public toilets in Canada charging money to use in the 20th century
3. I am neither Canadian nor a lawyer but I find it extremely hard to believe that there is any jurisdiction on earth where charging money to use a public toilet makes it legally constitute a hotel room and therefore OK to have sex in.
thats because i lied about this
I am once again asking the autistic community stop punching down on autistic people they’ve been taught to view as “stereotypes.”
I’m talking about nonspeaking autistics. About autistic people who need full-time support. About asexual and aromantic autistics. Autistics who don’t want a lot of friends. Unemployed autistics. Autistics who were/are in special ed. Intellectually disabled autistics. Autistic adults who live with other family members. Autistics whose meltdowns aren’t “subtle.” Autistics who injure themselves. Multiply disabled autistics. Autistic shut-ins and agoraphobes.
We are all just as deserving of respect and dignity as former gifted kid autistics who still do everything they can to distance themselves from us even as they preach acceptance.
Also, autistics who say rude things without realizing. I hated seeing that tweet circulating that was like, "We're not like autistics on TV, we're actually hyper-aware of whether we offend someone". No tf I'm not. Stop punching down on other autistic people for literally showing symptoms of autism.
Sincerely,
A former "gifted kid" autistic who also has obvious, self-injurious meltdowns on a regular basis

“Executive dysfunction” makes it sound like there is a little lady in my head wearing a pencil skirt and blazer sitting behind a desk and she’s always high on Valium. Hey executive, what should we do about the essay due Sunday? Or the pile of laundry keeping us from reaching the closet? Oh you’re making copies of a cat photo that says ‘hang in there’? Yeah that’s really fucking helpful Janet who the fuck gave you the promotion
“we autistics don’t need intervention—”
psychotherapy is intervention. speech therapy is intervention. occupational therapy & physical therapy are intervention. play therapy is intervention.
AAC is intervention. teaching communication is intervention. redirecting harmful stimming is intervention. teaching social skills is intervention. a visual schedule is intervention. having an IEP is intervention. classroom modifications are intervention. help with or help learn bADLs and iADLs are intervention.
giving yourself a sticker every time you finish a task? that is based on behavioralism and that is intervention. (behavioral therapy isn’t always ABA, behavioral therapy isn’t always abusive).
medicine for associated disorders is intervention.
early intervention is intervention, it is free (in the US i think), focus on skills, and often involves the child with developmental delay or diagnosis and their family, and many have said it have made such a big impact on child’s/their development. early intervention is not (always) ABA.
so much more are intervention.
if you don’t need any of that, great! but not every autistic in same position as you. many autistics need intervention, some autistics especially higher support needs may need all of them i mentioned. don’t erase us with your narrow understanding of autism and narrow understanding of intervention.
I've rarely seen a more validating sentence in my entire life.
High fives all around, friends. If we’ve accomplished nothing else today, we still have this.
I feel the need to add this

Shoutout to autistic writers, artists, musicians etc. The way you experience the world is valuable. Your creations are important.

hi. if your analysis of gender holds "male" and "female" and "nonbinary" as distinct identities with no overlap, and it does not include room for the fact that some men are also women and some women are also men and some men and women are also nonbinary and some people are all three, it's bad analysis and not inclusive of multigender people.
let me ask you this:
does your discourse about who is "allowed" in lesbian spaces make room for women who also identify as men, or do you say that a lesbian must be a "non-man"? does your wlw tumblr blog add "men dni" at the bottom of every post with no regard for the wlw who are also men? does your discourse about who is "allowed" in gay male spaces make room for men who also identify as women? does your discourse about who is "allowed" in nonbinary spaces make room for people who are also men and/or women in addition to being nonbinary?
when you talk about acceptance for trans people, are you including multigender people who still identify with their AGAB, including people who don't want to medically transition or change their presentation? are you including AMAB people whose identities still include "male" and who use he/him pronouns and present masculinely, or are you going to call them "predatory males" and kick them out of trans spaces? are you including AFAB people whose identities still include "female" and who use she/her pronouns and present femininely, or are you going to call them "theyfabs trying to feel special" and kick them out of trans spaces?
if your answer to any of those was "i hadn't even considered that", this is your sign that you need to listen to multigender people more, because we've been talking about these issues for a very long time
Absolute Lithops Effect by The Mountain Goats // Evocation of Roussel by Odilon Redon
Being a mountain goats fan is fun cause you can say a lyric and I will know exactly what song you're talking about and I will hear it in my head but I could not for the life of me tell you what the title is
it’s okay to be a trans man and be pre-T or never-T. whether that’s because you can’t financially or medically or just because you plain don’t want to, you are not less of a man for not taking testosterone. T is not the end all be all of masculinity and it is not the defining factor of your manhood.
