having a child has taught me that every toddler is completely justified in their frustrations and tantrums because learning how to do something you have literally never encountered or heard of before is insane. and being expected to be completely calm in the face of this constant barrage of overwhelming information is doubly insane.

i got charlie a sticker activity book and it occurred to me i have to TEACH someone how to unpeel stickers. it's SKILL that requires DEXTERITY and FINE MOTOR ABILITY. i thought it was obvious that you have to curl the page a little bit to create a break in the cut so the sticker comes up.

obviously a fucking BABY wouldn't know that because they have no background experience to inform their thought process. OBVIOUSLY. and OBVIOUSLY the LITERAL BABY wouldn't get it right the first few times. it would OBVIOUSLY take practice. lots of it.

i hate this feeling. it's so obvious. why are children treated so badly when they're learning everything for the first fucking time. why do people treat children so horribly and expect so much. they're brand new. why didn't i get the same grace i give to my child? why did no one have patience for me? why, when it's this easy?

it's so easy. it's so fucking easy.

touchstarved f/os who don't want to admit they want something as simple as a hug. but its all they can think about. how comforting it would be to feel your body wrapped around theirs. they stare at you longingly as words fail on them. eventually after so long for yearning to you, they whisper out if you could hold them. even if its just this once. of course you give them a hug and they melt in your touch, falling deeper into you as they hold you like their life depends on it.

How it feels to try to pay attention in class and try to stop your vision from unfocusing and try to stop your self from floating away

yeah, you're autistic, but do you make fun of people who have "childish" or "immature" interests? do you look down on people who talk to themselves or use obvious, unmasked repetititive movements in public and/or avoid being associated with then? do you berate people who can't understand social cues and/or nuance and/or aren't adept at realizing when they're crossing boundaries as you are because you think that they "should know better"? do you treat people who can't always or ever tell that someone else is bullying / mistreating them like they're too clueless to have autonomy? do you look on in disgust at people who aren't toilet trained / don't maintain hygiene / have "gross habits"? do you view others who don't try as hard to mask and / or aren't as adept as "putting on a show" or "faking" their autistic traits?

because like - never gonna deny anyone else's autism, and there's no way for anyone to fully understand someone else's internal experience - but if you as an autistic person still throw the people in your demographic that aren't as adept at hiding their Less Savory autism traits under the bus so that you can distance yourself from the so-called Bad Autistics, then you really need to try harder to protect the people in your community that are truly vulnerable and also realize that you, yourself, are not exempt from being othered just as easily as the rest of us if you slip up.
