New look, same great taste @nams2 - Tumblr Blog

I have an art blog now.

@bams-2. Art will likely be posted from there now but Ill RB stuff from it

the online identity and gimmick-ifying of autism is so odd. I'm diagnosed with autism and yet I barely identify with any stuff I see about it anymore. It feels like autism is being rebranded as the Silly Guy Disorder that gives you smart and beautiful hyperspecific interests. it's not that I mind silly jokes or being lighthearted about being autistic- but when the entire social movement is based around marketing us this way, I just can't help but feel isolated from it. it feels like I'm not the right kind of autistic. I'm not marketable and digestible to common audiences, and therefore I am discarded by the movement in the name of progress and acceptance. it feels foul.

#part of the reason i never tell anyone im autsitic anymore #the other being that i also have other disabilities and that quickly taught me that other autistics #are just as bad as the nts they keep maligning. at least the nts try and be patient with my dispraxia and only sometimes insult me over it #autistics just straight up insult me and then call ME ableist when i have a problem with it

and the post begins

because otherwise it gets kind of visually confusing to parse, which is annoying to some folks, including me

GRANTED not everybody uses the same theme or even the same update. you might have noticed my version of tumblr is earlier than yours (I don't like the new button setup)

but still, it's just about being polite
