Neurodivergent people, which is your absolute most hated thing when it comes to eating food?

Food like yogurt with fruit chunks that get rehydrated in the yogurt

Food touching on your plate

Food like oranges that have thin skin and squishy insides

Food with "too much tiny stuff" (corn, peas, broccoli heads, etc.)

Soggy food that shouldn't be soggy (cereal at the bottom of the bowl, etc.)

Chunky soups (different consistency chunks? soft meat + crunchy celery.. eegh)

Very smelly foods like salmon

very strong tasting food

Being told you'll "eat when you're hungry"

Other / can't decide (let me know which ones!)

The weirdest people on the internet will be like: "omg I love people with disabilities!!!! As long as they aren't like, ~disabled~ around me or do things that a nerotypical adult doesn't do, or have weird interests (that's weird and I gotta make fun of them because honestly loser behavouir, hehe) and if you live with your parents your a deadbeat and don't deserve to live- and if you can't get a job you don't deserve to live, and if you're strange or don't look cis white stright able bodied you don't deserve to live"

And you'll be like "hey girl, I littraly just mentioned my mildest disability to you and you said this- I don't think we should talk anymore"

Every time I saw Jafar hunched over ignoring everyone when playing "Disney's Cursed Café", two things popped into my head.

1. Bro's probably gonna have SERIOUS back pain.

2. He's neurodivergent as fuck, we love a man with autism

This isn’t a question but I AM SO TIRED OF PEOPLE THINKING A DISABILITY HAS TO BE VISIBLE TO GET SUPPORT!!! Cause in the world high functioning autistics, people with joint problems, or any other disability that people don’t seem to think is a disability doesn’t seem to count for them, they just treat us as if we’re just a kid with a stomach ache, not a disability. (As a person who is high functioning autistic, my middle school tried to take my IEP away because they thought I wasn’t autistic, even though I had an autism diagnosis on my record since I was 2.) Disabilities can be invisible as well, people with invisible disabilities still deserve to be supported and accommodated, disabilities are really all around, it doesn’t matter if people not understanding it are old and they “need to still do it to be successful”, IF DISABLED PEOPLE DONT FIT INTO SOCIETYS STANDARDS, CHANGE YOUR STANDARDS

Oh my god, I’m so sorry you’ve had this experience!! Schools in my experience don’t know wtf they’re talking about.. like… EVER.

Disabilities CAN be invisible! And that doesn’t make them any less debilitating!!! I have Dyscalculia and I literally sometimes THROW UP when I’m doing something too complicated, but people still try to pretend I’m just nervous.

Ts is such a valid crash out. However, if you want some advice from the worlds pettiest bitch (me!) than I would say just. Anytime a school challenges your IEP or ignores your accommodations, be AGGRESSIVE. Do not back down. Do not settle for anything you feel isn’t enough. Make it impossible to pretend you don’t exist. It’s scary at first, but once you remember that these people DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU AS A PERSON OR A STUDENT, it gets easier.

whoever needs to hear this, it's ok to be weird!

it's taken a long time for me to drop the mask and embrace being myself. it's scary and frightening and I promise it's worth it

here's a couple videos that help me reassure myself from time to time. I really hope more people post videos like this. maybe even me some day
