Reading a book about the autism spectrum and like

God I have never related to a book more

Like this guy loovesss door locks and when he's talking to someone it's more of a "speaking at them" rather then with them and he's mostly talking about door locks...

Dude....

Me too

#it just feels like im spewing bobs burger word puke at people rather then a conversation #also it was like...giving me little wtories anout 2 guys experience and ine thing stuxk out #“bob never played pretend.he didnt know how a box could be a space ship to hi. it was a box #i played pretend...i would go to my backyard holding my rainbow unicorn nechlace and pretend to talk to unicorns... #but not because i thought unicorns were real or anything like that.... #doing that just seemed lime a thing little girls did...i was pretending to do whar a child my age would do #because quite frankly while i did like the stereotypical things little girls my age did (barbies and my little pony...which i still do 😙) #but i didnt feel lime the other girls....some how even at my young stupid age.. i knew deep down something separated me from the girls in #my elementary classes... #when the kids in my class would joke with each other it would get a positive reaction...but when I make the same joke people thi k im weird #which is a universal experience at this point... #autism experiences

they are. like bugs to me

#cbge art #death mark #when i was playing ch1 i asked my wife what a holey hard hat is bc i didnt understand and she told me #its those yellow hats school kids in japan wear. i think we were both confused #but based on that knowledge i was like well it worked when yashiki said he's the tallest in his class. maybe i can trick it into thinking #that mashita is. in elementary school. somehow

I havent participated in daily dracula this year, but that and re: dracula really shows how important it is that schools reevaluate how they teach classics. Especially when literacy is at such a low point and an interest in books is so uh not great. I guarantee students that engaged in classics in fun and unique ways remember the books so much better than those that were forced to just read it.

#in gr12 my teacher made us read plays as a class and it was fucking miserable #in elementary school we were allowed to do any project we wanted on romeo and juilet and my friends and i chose a puppet show #it sucked but it got us so much more into the text than when we read it in gr 11 #daily dracula #dracula daily #re: dracula

Drawings I made waiting for the Deltarune newsletter

#deltarune #valentines day #ralsei #susie deltarune #noelle holiday #kris dreemurr #kris deltarune #noelle deltarune #berdly deltarune #i hope everyone has at least an okay valentines! i realize for some people it might be a little grating #in my eyes valentines is meant for the elementary schoolers sharing candy and customizing their own boxes. that's the real spirit of it #just hanging out with friends and eating yummy snacks. and being kind :) #someone in my lecture last night gave the whole class rice krispies! it was really really sweet #makes me happy knowing that people really are just kind #thank you girl in my discrete math class

Shoutout to autistic kids who others tried to bully with backhanded comments and sarcasm and nonverbal communication of disgust and exclusion but you were completely oblivious to it, I think that was really funny of us actually.

#actually autistic #autistic adult #autistic community #actually disabled #i realized like two years after finishing elementary school that half the girls in my class back then tried to bully me #and i simply like gave short answers taking them at face value. then turning around and thinking “wow theyre weird” - #- and just going back to whatever i was doing #“why do you always dress like that (disgusted tone)” #me: oh . this is the clothes that i like:) #(mentally: wow i wonder why they dont understand such a simple thing. anyways back to eating my sandwich!)

hello I'm asking you if you know about the Capoeira Cole headcanon

I DID NOT?????? but it works really well???

Since capoeira is a mixture between fighting and dancing and it fits cole character story

#ignore the fact I couldn't draw a Berimbau lmao #Also a bit of me lore: I used to have Capoeira classes back in elementary school #I sucked at it and I can't imagine the pain in the eyes of that poor capoeira teacher watching a bunch of 12 years olds being this bad #cole brookstone #my art

[patchw0rk-quilt]

they should have recess for high schoolers too like come on let those teenagers blow off some of that teenage angst by going on the swings or something

#in elementary school we had this playground that fuckin ruled #and in middle school we did have an outside area but it was just a miserable little path of grass with a gaga pit a kickball place #and a shoddy basketball court (not enriching in the slightest) #and then in high school theres just like. no playground #no outside time no recess just misery forever #i feel like cattle just moving around from class to class yearning for the outside #let me out let me OUT LET ME OUT LET ME OUT #writing in my diary 📔

I feel like part of autistic infighting is that the term encompasses such a huge range of disability, symptoms, and experiences that advocacy often struggles to be inclusive without becoming so unspecific it's toothless. On one hand high vs low functioning is a false dichotomy, on the other hand someone who was has severe difficulty communicating and motor disabilities has obviously had very different experiences from someone who found out later in life and can mask

#the special ed vs burnt out gifted kid fighting especially.... #feels weird because i was diagnosed early and was in some... idk... special ed lite classes during elementary school? #and my experience was mostly positive there. in retrospect they were probably trying to teach me social skills #but i was in kindergarten so i mostly remember being taken to a room that had a box full of sequins and animal erasers for me to sort #regular classroom was much worse #i was a social outcast for most of elementary and middle school and was bullied heavily #but many other autistic peoples' experience with special ed is like. physical abuse and dehumanization by faculty. #which is not remotely equivalent to baby jay eraser room #no reblogs because i don't want to argue with randos today

being the kid who other kids were compared to sucked so much actually

#thinking about how many potential friendships i lost in my childhood because teachers used me as an ..idek - a role model?? for the class #my friend literally told me she used to be so jealous of me in elementary school she actually hated me #and not just elementary school! #i remember in tenth grade we had an algebra test that many students didn't do well on #ppl were crying and complaining to the teacher that it was too difficult #she literally said '[my name] got a full mark didn't she? if she could do it then you all could've done it too. you have no excuse' #and she asked me in front of everyone if i found the exam difficult #i wanted to disappear on the spot

Every time I see manga Dazai's neck I think of this thing a boy said to me in elementary school that roughly translates to: "You have such a pretty neck, so delicate, so easy to strangle"

Which is a weird thought to have about real people but thankfully Dazai is not and let's be real he would probably appreciate it.

#dazai osamu #bsd dazai #bsd #just some thoughts #bungou stray dogs #sometimes kids say the weirdest things #me and said boy were vest friends back then by the way #true friendship is telling your friend you've been thinking about how to murder them #also my elementary school class had an unhealthy obsession with strangling #as I said kids are strange

I know Bill Nye by the 2nd degree

#mr. nye was the paramour of my partner's elementary school teacher #the school teacher got mr. nye to appear for a special science talk for the class #my partner met him as a child #i know the 9/11 terrorists by the 3rd degree

hii, i wanted to say tiny token bring me so much comfort and thank you for doing them, could i request tiny iv with a bat? 🦇 or any of them, it doesn’t have to be iv 🩶

Tiny IV is just chill with everything, he is a cool little dude, he can't help it

#i hope you like this weird little furball of a bat #i can only draw at least semi realistic bats #half of elementary school was spent to learn to draw them realistically #it was an inside joke with my old literature teacher who was also the homeroom teach of our class as well and he was kinda afraid of bats #anyway #tiny token
