it's a shame that the trope of a character who looks 12 but is actually 300 years old is usually just used for ick fanservice because on a paper i think the psychology of a person stuck in permanent childhood has a lot of interesting story potential. unfortunately i would not trust a fandom with that character with a 100ft pole.

[wizardarchetypes]

i know it's been said on here and said again but people do so desperately need to genuinely do intentional work to build distress tolerance and start figuring out how to recognize the differences between danger, discomfort, and when a situation that is merely uncomfortable is triggering an emotional flashback in your bodies because it resembles a past situation that actually was dangerous which makes it difficult to realize/believe that this moment is merely uncomfortable.

[wizardarchetypes]

i spoke to an allistic person who said their autistic classmate had a meltdown in class, during which the autistic classmate collapsed to the floor in the middle of the room, screaming and crying. they said it was "terrifying" and they were arguing for the autistic student to be removed permanently from the program.

when i asked whether their autistic classmate's meltdown was dangerous or merely uncomfortable, they said, "i felt like i was in danger!"

i understand that. but that's not what i asked.

[wizardarchetypes]

"i shouldn't have to experience that."

yes you should, actually. that's life. upsetting things happen. no one should have to experience any discomfort. but we do. we get stung by bees and sunburns and headaches. we live in bodies in the world.

autistic people are human beings who have the right to exist in society, including during meltdowns. having one class of your entire semester interrupted by a singular meltdown is not anymore of an infringement upon your entitlement to education than having your class interrupted by a fire alarm or cancelled for a snow storm.

one of my peers once experienced a cardiac event 10 minutes into class. it was terrifying. it was desperately upsetting. i was contacted by the school and offered counseling afterward because i happened to be the one who managed the situation until paramedics arrived. no one should have to experience their classmate being hauled off in an ambulance, but it happens. everyone was worried about my classmate first and foremost, and then about me. no one blamed anyone, and certainly when my classmate happily recovered and returned to school, no one thought they should be removed from the program.

the difference being that people believe a disabled personal, especially with cognitive disabilities, in crisis are not experiencing something outside of our control, but instead that we doing something. that we are in fact making a choice to cause a scene, out of malice.

This Day in Buster… May 6, 1919 Buster has returned to Los Angeles after completing his World War I tour of duty in France. He goes back to work for Roscoe Arbuckle at Comique Studio, where they begin “Back Stage,” which Keaton co-wrote, relying on his vaudeville memories.

⚔️ 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗺! Bolt Rifle
Weapon (musket), rare (requires attunement) ___ This magic musket uses a bolt-loading mechanism. It shoots a bullet propelled by lightning when fired, which emits instantaneous bright light out to a range of 20 feet along the bullet’s path. Attack rolls with this magic weapon are made with advantage if the target is made of metal or is wearing metal armor. In addition, the first target you hit on a turn with it takes an extra 1d6 lightning damage; if you had advantage on the attack roll, you can roll the lightning damage’s die twice and use the higher result. 𝙇𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙠𝙚. The rifle has 3 charges, and it regains 1d3 expended charges daily at dawn. When you hit a target with an attack roll using this weapon, you can expend 1 or more of its charges to increase the number rolled on the d20 by the same number of charges, up to a maximum of 20, as if you rolled that number on the die instead. Regardless of the result, the target of the attack and other creatures of your choice within 10 feet of it that you can see must then make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 2d6 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one; this lightning damage is increased by 1d6 for each additional charge you expend after the first. Once this property has been used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn. ___ ✨ Patrons get huge perks!

[omegaversereloaded]

i cant believe that there's still gamergate STANK on games that women enjoy. NASTY misogyny residue. stardew valley is in fact a video game. animal crossing is also a video game. so are otome games and dating sims and twee little cozy games. sometimes a bitch doesnt wanna play bloodborne that shit's hard

[omegaversereloaded]
