TIL that Diana Rigg was involved with charities that raised money for autistic kids.
I have a sinking feeling that those charities were more than likely those who peddled “cures” for autism, because that’s what those kinds of “charities” concentrate on.
I wonder whether anyone ever told Diana how toxic “cure” rhetoric is to autistic people, and whether once told she changed her mind or just doubled down, as other celebrities have done when confronted by actually autistic people. I’d like to think it was the former, but knowing human nature as I do, I have my doubts.
This has been a bit of bittersweet news to me. On the one hand, she cared enough about us to do something, but on the other, what she chose to do and why might not have been that great.

Ranting mainly about the people on Twitter, especially the ones shaming others for consuming n$fw content and treating Clown like he's a damn child. It's already infuriating enough that people are infantilizing Clown. Just because he has autism and talks in a different way, does not make him a child. As an autistic person, it pisses me off how neurotypicals will treat us as immature people who need to be babied and taken care of like we're five fucking years old. Autistic people are people too. And Clown is a grown ass man. He probably pays rent and shit and some of you are out here like "Oh no no no!! You shouldn't have made that tag, Clown!!!! You're so tiny and innocent!!" I cannot tell you how much that burns my britches. Second, consuming spicy content is NOT A BAD THING. STOP. SHAMING. PEOPLE. FOR HAVING NATURAL FEELINGS! Okay, someone looks at tits in their spare time, SO WHAT??? It's none of your damn business what they do. And you have no right to be ridiculing them for consuming such content. I cannot tell you how infuriating it is. Stop acting so high and mighty people. Get off your high horse because you've probably done the same thing. Its honestly so sickening Rant over, back to regularly scheduled posting

would you please give me some more bird facts
EVERYONE BE CALM EVERYONE STAY CALM EVERYONE STAY FUCKING CALM ITS HAPPENING ITS HAPPENING
here are some more bird facts that I know off the top of my head because I’m neurotypical and normal and definitely not autistic
- despite most being able to mimic humans and other animals, birds don’t actually have vocal chords like we do! instead of having a larynx, birds have a syrinx, which- instead of being located above the windpipe like our larynx- is actually positioned at the BASE of the windpipe. the syrinx produces sound by vibrating through the chest via muscle contraction- pushing out air through their beak kind of like a burp in a way! this is why when you see some birds call, you can see it sort of coming from their breast more than their throat
- I know I brought up hoatzins on the last post, but this is a different fact about them I promise!! hoatzins actually have a digestive system very similar to cows- the only bird in the world that we know of that uses foregut fermentation to digest their food. on the flip side of that, sometimes they’re referred to as ‘skunkbirds’ or ‘stinkbirds’ because they smell similar to cow dung
- kea- nicknamed ‘clowns of the mountain’- are not only incredibly intelligent but very silly and playful!! they literally have a call that specifically means ‘playtime!!’ in a group, they’re called a circus hehe .. I’m being serious about that btw that isn’t a joke look it up
- some parrots (like macaws) blush!! when they’re excited/pleased/stressed/etc they’re prone to growing pink in the face just like we do!
- hummingbirds have such good memory that they can recall things that happened or recall certain locations that they visited years ago. this is because their hippocampus takes up a huge portion of their brain!!
- turkeys have incredible eyesight! they can see like. three times better than 20/20 vision which is.. literally insane. their wide field of vision is like 270 degrees iirc?? it’s crazy
- puffins ‘kiss’ in order to strengthen their bonds!! they rub their beaks together with the ones they love as a way to show affection and trust to each other.. it’s literally so adorable it’s one of my favorite things ever
HOPE THESE ARE SATISFACTORY!!! o7 KEEP THOSE BIRD ASKS COMING FOLKS!!

Alright, it was a bad idea to go into the neurosparkly tag. People are chill in the neurospicy tag, but it's just hatepost after hatepost after hatepost in the neurosparkly tag.
I was gonna keep my mouth shut, but now I'm pissed. Y'all really know how to make a person's skin crawl.
Rant below.
Listen, this reeks of one person pulling "neurosparkly" and "neurospicy" out of a very obscure conversation and going "hmm, this gives me the willies, so it looks like an acceptable target to me!", and I'm already sick of it. This gives me the exact same vibes as that one famous post about transmeds vs transtrenders -- this idea of pinning one form of self-expression against another, in the name of dunking on fellow marginalized people that are giving your demographic "a bad name". To that end, I'd like to remind y'all that the original artist of that post admitted they weren't acting right about trans people that aren't like them, and so I'm hoping we get over this and get over it soon.
Because we cannot keep doing this.
Every. Summer. Every fucking Summer, this website has to put a spotlight on a new group to punch down on. First it was just about every LGBTQIA+ group outside of cis gay men you could imagine -- lesbians, bis/pans, trans people, ace people, non-binary people, people who identify as queer (we're literally all queer, but that's another convo all together), you name it. It literally never stops, you people have to be taught over and over again that, no, this one group isn't okay to target either, that's your family too, you're not better than them for being a different flavor of weird.
Now we're doing this to neurodivergent people? Neurodivergent people. The overwhelming majority of this website. You're gonna try and clown on other neurodivergent people for, what is it, being cringe? After we just agreed that embracing cringe is a huge step towards self-acceptance and self-love? tumblr is THE cringe website. We don't do optics here, we don't clean our metaphorical rooms when guests are over.
Like what, we have to take every moment of our neurodivergent lives seriously? It's ridiculous enough that we have a "normal" model for how a brain should be, compared to all the different ways a person can develop. Are we such tragic figures that we can't take the smallest delight in calling ourself a fun little nickname? It's not self-censoring, it's not like "handicapable vs disabled", let's not treat this thing like a gust of wind on the house of cards that is our (quite necessary) camaraderie.
Are we gonna start zeroing in on specific neurodivergent conditions next? How long are we gonna play this stupid game of Who Is It Okay To Bully on this website? If you wanna look like a mature and poised and respectable lot, you can't be doing something so petty, whether it's for fun or "for the cause".
Y'know what? I support neurosparkly. I support neurospicy. My neurotype is glow-in-the-dark. It's glittery, it's color-changing, it's metallic and covered in rhinestones and smells like artificial fruits. My neurotype is crayon drawings and old kids' meal toys and bubble machines and getting bleary-eyed over Muppet songs. My brain is covered in holographic stickers and playing 8bit videogame music on loop. I am Cringemeister General. You could only wish to be as cringe as me.
Now cringe. Cringe and cope and seethe and mald. Dig up everything you can about me to attempt to punish me for disagreeing with you, and let your confirmation bias run wild. Post me on r/cringe, make a YouTube or TikTok video about me, pick me apart on a livestream, make me the poster-boy of your disgust, print out a screenshot of my blog and throw darts at it. Dance the dance of self-hatred, and then wait in the wings until you get to dance it again.
Eugh.
I'm gonna close this rant using every argument that I've seen effectively shut down these yearly attempts at putting eachother in the pillories, because I don't know if I can take another Summer of this:
If you start picking on people for using "neurosparkly" or "neurospicy", I'm assuming you're a fed. Infighting only helps the oppressors, and if we spend our energy trying to police eachother we're not going to get anything done. Kill the cringe cop in your head. There's as many ways for a person to live as are, have been, and will be people on this planet; there's a good chance you're gonna hear about some people who give you the ick, but you're gonna have to swallow that ick and respect them anyhow.
Every ounce of energy you spend rolling your eyes at people you consider beneath you can be spent chipping away at a person in power. Every minute you choose to spend tsking or turning up your nose at "weird" kids can be spent advocating for that weirdness and normalizing being fucking nice to people. You punch down or punch across because it gives you quicker, more visible results; if we're all punching up, they'll have no other option than to listen to us.
There is enough room for everybody. Even the neurospicies, even the neurosparklies.
PS: Any attempts to make fun of me or the people I talked about in this post are just straight-up gonna be ignored. I don't see why you'd want to convince me to think less of others, so trying to sway me is gonna be difficult on your part. I'm not debating anyone's rights, and I'm not gonna conserve spoons to argue with a stranger. I have Anons turned off already, so if you wanna get up in my virtual face you won't have a disguise to protect you.
Thank you for your time.

The Art of Giving Your Best Friend Platonic Hickeys
"So, I've read this Tumblr post," Marinette said.   Now, at this point in time anyone with the tiniest bit of common sense would have cocked a skeptical eyebrow and backed away from this conversation as fast as their neurotypical legs would carry them.  Chat Noir — against all expectations — peered an eye open. "What did it say?" "It said, and I wholeheartedly agree, that it's okay to have a little crush on your friends.” *** aka Marinette and Chat Noir rent out a hotel room for clowning purposes
The Art of Giving Your Best Friend Platonic Hickeys (1999 words, 1/1 chapters, Teen)
"I've always wanted to try this!" Marinette giggled as soon as the door banged shut behind her.
"Renting out a hotel room with a friend for the heck of it?" Chat Noir asked. His voice was amused but he didn't pay much mind to her, ogling the double bed of their room challengingly as he was.
Marinette threw herself on the comforter without a second thought. "Renting out a hotel room with my best friend for the heck of it!" she corrected.
His face lit up like a toddler's on Christmas as he followed suit, jumping on the bed with all his might. "And I've always wanted to try this!"
"You can do better than just throwing yourself in the sheets, you know," Marinette laughed and gave the bed an experimental bounce.
"Oh, I'm aware," Chat drawled, his mischievous eyes flashing at her as he started springing up and down on the mattress in earnest. "I'm just getting started here."
"That's good, because the night is also only getting started," Marinette countered, holding his gaze for the exact millisecond it took her to get ideas before she threw her head back with a hearty laugh.
And then they did other things one or both of them had always wanted to try, like ordering an unholy amount of ice cream from the room service and feeding it to each other blindfolded, until — in some inexplicable, mysterious way — it ended up in Chat Noir's hair. After that there were no more excuses to avoid trying out the lavender-scented bath bombs they found in the vanity because he had to wash his hair anyway.
Marinette sat on the carpet cross-legged with her back to the bathroom's door, scrolling away on her phone while keeping up a conversation with Chat Noir over the sound of running water.
It was casual.
However, she got so engrossed in a post, she didn't even notice the silence and the approaching footsteps. Chat Noir opened the door and she fell, her back meeting the tiles before he could have caught her.
"Auch, are you okay?" he asked, pulling her to her feet.
“Yeah, I just got distracted,” Marinette said. She gave a once over to him, a smirk tugging on her lips as she went over to sit on the bed. “Cute PJs, by the way.”
“Wearing Ladybug pyjamas is very professional in my line of business, I’ll have you know,” he nodded proudly. He followed her like a shadow and just when she finally found a comfortable position — one-leg pulled under herself — he laid his head on her lap.
“Your hair is all wet,” Marinette complained, albeit making no effort to change the situation.
She grazed her nails over the spot behind his ear — the human one, not the cat one, that would have been weird — the way she knew he liked it. (Although, the weird part was probably the fact that even detransformed and with only a black textile mask to conceal his identity, Chat Noir felt the need to put on a headband accessorised with cat ears. She didn’t comment on that, though — who was Marinette to judge a friend’s self-expression.)
Evidently enjoying the head-scratches, Chat Noir let his eyes drift shut.
"So, I've read this Tumblr post," Marinette said.
Now, at this point in time anyone with the tiniest bit of common sense would have cocked a skeptical eyebrow and backed away from this conversation as fast as their neurotypical legs would carry them.
Chat Noir — against all expectations — peered an eye open. "What did it say?"
"It was a very insightful analysis on platonic relationships, actually," she continued. She ran her fingers through his damp hair and fiddled with the untamable locks.
Chat Noir made a purring sound. "And what did it say about platonic relationships?"
Why Marinette didn’t feel like using the word ‘friendship’ in the first place, she couldn’t quite explain. At any rate, she proceeded to avoid doing so. "It said — and I wholeheartedly agree — that it's okay to have a little crush on your friends. That you can be attracted to them, and that's fine. Because nothing has to come from it. And I think that's really neat."

Some tumblr posts have those gross imperatives tacked on at the end that make any self respecting person not reblog the post. You know, “white people can reblog”, “neurotypicals don’t clown in the notes”, “I see you not reblogging this”, etc etc.
Lately, with the addition of polls, on a number of occasions I’ve seen people try to claim “reblog for sample size” belongs to the same category of gross, moralizing imperatives and like. It just doesn’t?
“Reblog for sample size” is a straight forward request with a clear legitimate objective. Its phrased as an imperative but there’s not weight behind it, there’s no moralizing or attempt to make you feel obligated to respond a certain way. Someone just wants their poll to reach a wider audience (as most polls are intended to do), and is asking you to help them. You can just shrug and say “nah” like I usually do. Really not seeing the comparison here.

Yeah but what that person was saying makes sense because stede was the only one who could control them because he’s rich and knows how to play on their level
And I responded snippily because things can be and often are more than one thing and it doesn't take a genius to figure that out. Of course it was about class. The whole episode was about class, it's also about race because of the shit going on with the servants and with Olu and Frenchie, and with Ed. The whole episode is "these rich white people are the in group and everyone else is the out group." That is true and Ed was also on astronomical levels of autism the whole time he was there, and Stede tripped at the first hurdle, which anyone could have done regardless of their neurotype, but immediately shut down as though this had happened to him before.
Like Ed is heavily autistic coded in other ways throughout the series. (Not understanding what passive agression even is despite having dated Calico Jack, the shadiest bitch alive, being an unstable genius character which is already an autistic coded character trope, he also in some ways follows the manic pixie dream girl while subverting it by being a middle aged man, but the manic pixie dream girl is also an autistic coded character trope, his sensory seeking behavior ect.) And then they put Ed in a social situation, they had him commit social faux pas after social faux pas and it makes him the center of attention and he thinks that means they like him until he sits down at the table and the camera starts zooming at these grotesque angles and the French girl tries to touch him and he realizes that maybe this whole time they've been laughing at him and not with him and then they do something that is obviously mean and he has a full blown melt down about it.
Like I'm sorry how else am I supposed to interpret that other than someone autistic in that writers room having a field day? What is that if not an autistic experience? And then he goes out and talks to his also autistic coded but less so boyfriend and says "hey the thing happened" and then they get revenge????? Autistic wish fulfillment. It's also because they combined forces with the servants who are oppressed on a race and class basis. It's also because Ed is poor that Stede can fake it and Ed super can't. It's also true that Stede was able to pull off the revenge because he's rich and has run in these circles since he was born. That doesn't mean you have to show up on my autistic post about how I like this scene because I'm autistic and go "um, actually it's not about you" when it fully can be read that way without even reaching that hard.
Like it's not that hard to "yes, and" me which I would have been less mean about. But because I'm op I don't owe you a "yes, and". I'm allowed to tell you to get off my lawn. Like this is a character that I have seen people run through the diagnostic criteria for autism with and diagnose him based on evidence from the show and nothing else. This is a character that the creator has referred to as a "highly emotional person." He's ours. I'm allowed to talk about that without clowns "um, actually"ing me with information I already know that doesn't take away from my point.

I’m sorry my ask annoyed you. I honestly wasn't trying to, I was asking after your opinion and thus shared my viewpoint on it as well. I don't think that to be discourse starting. It wasn't a guise. I wanted it to be an exchange of different opinions/viewpoints between two people because not everyone shares the same views and I sought to hear more details from someone else’s perspective. I wanted you to share yours so I shared mine, that way you could understand where I was coming from and then I could read your viewpoint and understand yours if you replied. I wasn't asking for justification or an argument. I only wanted to hear why you shipped them and how you saw them together. Which you provided. Thank you.
But I realize my ask was unsolicited and came out of nowhere which isn't right. I should have led into the conversation rather than just dump all of that into one single ask. It was a lot all at once. Thank you for replying nonetheless and for sharing your views on the ship. I’m sorry I caused you to be annoyed/irritated. That wasn't my intention.
gonna start this out by saying i don't plan on answering another ask about this after this one
a conversation here ALSO would not have been appreciated bc the last thing the vast majority of anyone who ships anything wants is someone starting a conversation with them with plans to eventually tell them why they don't actually like the ship you ship.
you might not have been around my blog long enough to remember me posting about this stuff when st*cky shippers started coming into the s*mb*cky tag (blocking the name out just bc i don't want this showing up in the tag, as it's not about the ship, even though i adore the latter ship) and talking shit about the latter ship because they just "didn't see the chemistry" and "didn't understand how people could ship it when st*cky were so obviously meant to be soulmates" or whatever the fuck, but i really did not take kindly to that, and wouldn't have even if it wasn't ship wars based. i might clown on ships on my own personal blog (always blocked out so nothing shows up in tags) or with my friends that i know have a similar opinion, and i might even really dislike a ship to the point that it makes me want to block every instance of it and all the people who regularly post about it, but i'd never start a conversation with them with the intentions of telling them all the reasons i personally actually really disliked it, unless they started shit first
like, i understand you were trying to understand, which is fine. again, if the first ask had simply been, "what do you like most about phee and tech?" or "what made you ship techphee in the first place?" i would have been happily gushing about the chemistry i see between them, i'm sure. but if that conversation you think you should have led into at all included your opinion on disliking tech and phee together, i can assure you i would have been just as mad because, quite frankly, i did not ask. i did not plan on asking. i do not want to know. i am not particularly sympathetic to your opinion, and even less so now, and all i wanted was to be left alone to be happy about the ship i thought was cute getting screen time of them being soft and flirting with each other
but the fact of the matter is that saying things like "as if it's 'funny/cute' to watch someone who doesn't understand social cues or needs time to adjust to interactions be thrown for a loop" (implying that the ship is problematic as it's a way to make fun of a neurodivergent character) and "their line of overused tropes that more so appeal to the masses of heterosexual neurotypical viewers" (to someone who is very much not heterosexual, by the way, and is very vocal about that) is going to be taken as inflammatory and discourse-starting, because it is. those are highly charged things to say, with a lot of negative emotional weight behind them, which is the prime breeding ground for discourse, especially when tacked onto an ask whose purpose is to ask why i don't think that way. it felt very "well i see that this ship is problematic for x and y reasons, why do you not see it?" nothing in that ask read like it was asked in good faith and, even with this added on explanation of intent, it still is hard to ignore how charged your (once again, unsolicited) reasoning for disliking the ship was. it felt almost accusatory, which is why it felt like a demand to explain myself
like i said, i don't really want to keep going with this conversation. i mostly just wanted to answer this second ask to say please don't go out looking for a conversation partner with the express intent of eventually offering your viewpoint, which is essentially shitting on a thing that they like. ask people why they like the ship if you want to know, and end the conversation there. keep your opinions on your own blog, and i'm sure you'll eventually find someone who shares them to talk about it with, but like keep your negativity about it from the people who love/like/enjoy it. i can assure you they do not want it, and they didn't ask.

hot take from Scarlett here. Feel free to disagree - doesn't mean we have beef or anything (unless you make this difference of opinion out to be beef) and I'll never go directly to those posts and be a bitch about it unless someone crosses over a line
But I keep seeing parallel (in my view) discourse and it pisses me off
Trans femmes and trans mascs constantly at each others throats, and able bodied disabled people and physically disabled people do the same shit.
Do we annoy each other sometimes? Yeah. Fuck yeah (and shout out to intersex people who really get it hard from perisex trans people) - anyone who says dumb shit like "I wish I was physically disabled so people cared" deserves to get clowned on and people who argue JK Rowling only targets trans femmes when she targets trans mascs in a different, also horrible way also deserve to get clowned on. And we all deserve boundaries and shit
But like just keep in mind... I have more solidarity with a trans masculine person as a trans femme (kinda, our body is trans femme at least.. Maybe im trans femme adjacent) than I do with cis people. I have more solidarity with physically disabled people than I do with abled-bodied neurotypicals.
Im just gonna say. Venting is fine. Banners are cute (like the "abled-bodied people don't interact", I respect that!) But if you put some effort into finding your commonalities, educating over the ignorance (which believe me is fucking there, in many ways from both directions though intensity or equity of issues is an argument) my gut instinct is that you will find a closer ally than you think.
You can do what you want. Tone policing isn't my style so sorry if you take it that way. Just trying to give advice that isn't "touch grass". Again, boundaries are good.
But otherizing people with a similar, but different experience than you can lead to bad places - for you; idgaf if you don't extend a hand to someone who is ignorant for their sake, but because I think you also will benefit from overlooking and educating over some microaggressions.
Just my 2 cents

you dont have to post this ask i just wanted to add that people are impersonating other sides too , sending suicide bait pretending to be a pro or anti endo. like it happened to me i was asking a question politely and someone sent the same person a kys message on anon with similar wording in my original ask and it was weird. i also dont know if those people are even in either community, the thkng is this topic is clowned on by neurotypicals who think we’re all cringe and i wonder sometimes if its them too interfering.
sorry im rambly but im in a similar position i dont want to align with any side that encourages suicide baiting, but i think theres trolls sending this stuff too. so to me i stopped seeing it as “siding” with anyone i just think what i think
Thank you, when I was talking about suicide baiting I actually meant people like fixing-endo-posts or sparklingsyscourse, both of whom have suicide baited. Told people to kts or that they want them to die and they have faced no repercussions to my knowledge. I've seen people on the endo side do this as well. But theres a lot of stuff thats led up to this.
And it wouldn't surprise me if neurotypicals were doing that.
But you do make a really good point, they are my opinions and I don't have to "side" with anyone
