#not allowed out to skate :

[luigis-slut]

So did any other autistic people have ABA therapists encourage your parents to have you participate in a "variety of activities" as a young kid to prevent you from developing special interests?

Did that prevent you from practicing an activity long-term, thus keeping you from being good at anything? And as an adult, did that inhibit your ability to develop hobbies and find interests that you're passionate about?

Because that’s sure what it did to me.

#autism #ableism #ableist nonsense #aba #anti aba #anti ableism #I mean its not like i didnt develop hobbies and find things that im skilled at #but i feel like the fact that my parents/ABA 'therapists' were trying to prevent 'autistic behavior' limited my potential #I'm glad that my parents encouraged my art skills to the point that it became my career path #and that Im at least skilled and talented in THAT #but i wish i could go back in time and trade all of those sports activities out for ONE sport and music #I did soccer. baseball. dance. karate. ice skating. etc. None of it stuck. I remember almost none of those skills now. #Because id only do it for a year or two before I was encouraged to try something else before it became a special interest #I feel like id be in a much better place now if i was simply allowed to have special interests #aba is abuse #aba is meant to eradicate autistic traits for the convenience of parents. not to produce healthy adults #Im trying to develop new hobbies now. But with the way i was raised its extremely difficult to learn and keep practicing #this certainly isnt the worst thing that ABA has done to me. But its one that i dont see many others talk about #i wish i had been allowed to have special interests. I wish i had been allowed to be autistic without ridicule #the fact that my family STILL looks back on my 'variety of interests' as a good thing is also depressing #the fact that they keep saying 'its a good thing we got early intervention' makes me upset #I know that they mean well. Theyre glad i can communicate verbally and could graduate college #But they treat my autism like its cancer. The constantly tell me that the abuse was justified. That i NEEDED it #this is why we need autism ACCEPTANCE. Not awareness. ACCEPTANCE.

I swear to the almighty my entire BODY is SCREAMING for me to get back to writing NOW

I have this one idea with a new fandom that's tickling all the right spots, like that one Haikyuu fic I wrote yeeeeaaaars back and GOD I WANNA SCRATCH THE ITCH AND WRITE

BUT MY GODDAMN UNFULFILLING JOB THAT'S BURNING ME OUT TO THE CORE IS PREVENTING ME FROM DOING ANYTHING

I HAAAAATE IT SO MUCH, FUCK THIS SHIT!!!!!

#the idea with that job is to maaaaybe stay one more year #to see three things #1 finish a degree specialty (idk how to call it in English) that is offered there and I'm paying for #2 get mt 3rd TKT module certificate of band 3 or 4 #and 3 watch my first generation of students graduate #....but the way I feel soooo mentally tired with the majority of my current students #(and the prospect of still giving them classes next year... albeit just once a week and not 4 time like rn) #is making me second guess my decision #....if and when i do decide to leave i do intend on allowing myself 3 months or half a year of rest #bc DAMN AM I TIRED AND IN NEED OF TIME TO WORK ON MYSELF (mainly some aspects of self-esteem and my body) #(i wanna lose weight and go out on walks +learn how to roller skate+ have a professional undo all the knots on my shoulders like 😵‍💫) #well enough rambling #random ramblings #wishes for the following year

i C u moyle

captured in 4k

#i REFUSE to admit defeat at the hands of the umich boys #except i did verbatim send a text to my roommate that said ‘bro stop he’s disgusting i’m so in love with him’ #after fully watching a trail of spit come out of his mouth while he was bent over to take a face off. i am Down Bad #also nolan never keeps his tongue in his mouth my dude is just out there full 👅 all the time i can’t stand him close ur mouth or i’ll kiss u #nolan moyle #ethan edwards #philippe lapointe #relatedly duker skates EXACTLY the way he runs in the monday videos which is how i identify him at all times & i almost started wheezing #if i knew how to make gifs there would be gifs of nolan stickhandling however i don’t Know how to make live videos gifs ☺️ #deep cuts from the draft dumpster dives #is this from two different games? the world may never know (yeah. do i remember exact dates for either of them? no of course not) #we’re just getting close to the end of the season & i am succumbing to my desire to post Him #also inCREDIBLE nemcklance content in the second picture (not of nolan) 🫠 #nemcklance #things i am not proud of: my reaction 2 this. everyone shhh i’m allowed one breakdown about a dirtbag per quarter & i haven’t seen mo enough #like most days i do not want to be a puck bunny but sometimes u lock eyes with a man & go ohhh the hoggles are glued on for you ✊😔 buffooner #trying 2 undo my internalized misogyny! by allowing myself 2 say i can be a valid sports fan who likes players! sorry about it! idk why him! #it is 1000% because of la’s umich fic & all the lore though. most likely. also apparently i’m a crustasche lover 😪 the struggle is real #if u loved me u would have stopped at the tag about nolan drooling on the ice & we will never speak of this again (said by someone who will)

my scaredguy ass could NEVER drive a vehicle

#like if worse came to worst i think i could drive. i might pass out when i’m done though #it’s just so scary bro #like the people on the road are crazy. they could literally open fire on me at any given moment if i dare do something they don’t like #like i really think we should just get rid of it but i don’t think too deep about that. i just won’t get a. car i’ll walk/cycle everywhere #and skate but some places don’t allow that inside sadly :( #if i had a horse i could get places bc of where i live you can just do that. but i’m not taking care of a horse no sir #not spiderstuff

the hell of wanting to walk around like a dog but not only not being built for that physically but also having weak wrists prone to injury

#i miss the times when i was a lil kid so i was more active and was allowed to like play pretend so id walk around on all fours a lot #im very unfit and much heavier so. its way more difficult #also i dont think my wrists are like genetically wrong like them being prone to injury comes more from lack of exercise and bad luck #and like. i fell on my wrists a lot and hurt them pretty badly in the past cause im clumsy as all shit #one time i fucked up my right thumb while ice skating and after ~6 years it still pops out every now and then #theres this guy ive seen a few times on social media that walks on all fours as like an exercise and vlogs about his progress #i wish i had the determination to actually practice this #solely for the purpose of being more like a doggy when im home alone. woof #feeling a lot more therian feels recently lol #bee buzz

The Beach Boys Love You (1977) is such a questionable album I mean it’s barely even a Beach Boys album based on who contributes what but she’s so silly to me ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

#talkingcore #could YOUR fave make a song all about how manly Johnny Carson is? what about fucking planets #what do the planets mean!!! and have you ever seen sun shine in the morn?? #its batshit insane it pioneered synthpop almost 40 years ahead of time #being seconds away from divorce struggling with substance abuse and being abused by your therapist can make some good songs #actually they just lead you not to make music for like 10 years but that’s besides the point Thank You Brian Wilson #Pet Sounds is the greatest album of all time? I’d like to see where in Pet Sounds there’s a song about honking down the gosh darn highway #i think it’s gonna be on loop this is not looking good for my future #like okay literally it’s a Brian Wilson solo album but they were like fuck it The Beach Boys need to put something out #so it became the bbs love you and not Brian loves you #which like yes the other members contribute vocals but literally All the lyrics and instruments are Brian #which by the way it’s all synths which is really insane and fun for the time #and also given the point in his life he was at he absolutely should NOT have been allowed to make lyrics #i mean hell during his accepted peak he had other people handling lyrics #so you want him making words while his brain is melting???? okay ig #that’s how you get roller skating child……. but it slaps though!!!!!! #omg I’ve not explained hey little tomboy on here oh my god #it’s not on love you I don’t like the album it’s from but ohhhh my god what a song……… #OH FORGOT TO ADD you have a duet between Brian and his wife about like love shit and it’s actually really pretty #but like they’re on the brink of divorce when it was recorded so it’s amusing in that sense

damn, maybe people should be allowed to not like certain skaters

just a silly lil concept, don't mind me

#doesn't even matter if there's any reason like #it's not that deep #nevermind me i stumbled into the wrong side of fs twitter again #the fanyus and chenbots on there.......... out in the wild............. #saying some of the things they do......... fighting tooth and nail............ #anyway #hellsport: #figure skating #like this applies for absolutely anything and everything #you're allowed to not like things and you don't have to justify it sooooo

#am i allowed to write an open where specifically i want someone to ground henry out of dissociation with physical touch #or do i need to post a starter call/wishlist item? ;slkfjg #OH OR MAYBE A MEME THAT I USE FOR THIS like how i used that 'skating' meme that one time #ok ok wait brain is braining

#why is he LIKE THIS #obm liveblogging #lucifer unprompted: allow me to give u a list of each of my brothers faults and flaws #he is Unwell and it’s just so funny sometimes #I’ve been thinking lately about that one scene #in like s3 I think #where you’re trying to think of who to help Simeon at the cafe #and when ur goin thru hypotheticals and get to lucifer #the imagination is that his customer service skills are just abysmal #and he’s like ‘what. you’re ordering THAT. what the hell is wrong with you. get out of my cafe’ #or something kencncngng #i feel like that energy came up again in the roller skating restaurant cafe card or some other story #but I just love that concept of him being #Such A Bitch that he cannot function in regular people scenarios #mr high and mighty a general unpleasant person to be around LOL #sorry I love bullying him 😔 #he takes himself SO seriously and yet is like. so unhinged truly #it’s so funny dhfnvngngngkgntjejf

i love the idea of viktor doing a britney spears exhibition program (it would’ve been toxic btw) when he was like 16, but what i love even more is him making a britney comeback a few years later when work bitch came out

#ever so often i read fics where it's like 'haha viktor remember when you lost that bet and had to skate to britney spears' but no. #you guys don't understand. viktor would've skated to britney out of his own free will #teen viktor would skate to toxic because he's a kid and he likes britney!!! he'd do it because it was fun!!!! #then some years later work bitch comes out and he'd do an exhibition to that because toxic would've been such a fan favorite #i've been listening a lot to britney spears lately. can you tell. #also i'm sure work bitch would NEVER be allowed because umm language but uhhh let's imagine a world where that's not an issue #yuri on ice #maja talks #this would be during the

Yuzuru Hanyu wallpaper for your viewing pleasure.

Only one because I fear I'll go into cardiac arrest out of excitement if I do more. 😹

#figure skating #yuzuru hanyu #g.o.a.t. #phone wallpaper #i mean... sir... nobody should be allowed to look this good. #weirdly enough I also like the costume #time to get my gray nailpolish out to recreate it on my nails

me, waking up: wow my wrist feels so much better today i think i'm finally healed up. i should make myself breakfast! my wrist after making breakfast, showering, getting dressed, and taking care of pets: AAAA!! OH MY GOD!! IM DYING!!

#>:( #at least she still feels well enough i think i can go out skating again #provided the weather allows it #its fatigued but i can actually put pressure on it and lift things without like pain shooting through my arm

I wiped out so hard tonight my KNEES

#I fell over. so many times. including two of the worst falls I’ve had in a WHILE #god the first one literally like minute and a half on the ice i lose a foot under me and do the splits. crash into the barriers #I am notably Not flexible I cannot do the splits. I don’t know how I kept skating afterwards #the worst fall I have ever had however was right at the end and the thing that made me get off #we were playing a thing and both me and this other guy we’re trying to catch this girl who turned out to be Also going very fast #three way collision all falling forwards on top of each other #we SLID there were BLADES BY MY HEAD im lucky im short im amazed nobody got actually hurt #except like. my knees which are now staging a coup I rlly should ice them but I don’t have ice and I just wanna sleep #but GOD tonight was a mixed bag #i have acquired the instagram and will probably get him on committee if he sends me the thing #also slowly thinking hrm yeah he’s probably straight #anyway good news: i think we’re pretty solidly friends now. bad news: prooobably regrettably heterosexual #idk straight guys shouldn’t be allowed to be cute and funny and good at skating it’s not fair #aaaanyway. it’s my own fault bc I meet most new people through hockey now and this sport is pretty notoriously not queer #it’s a little different here but the people who end up Good are largely not yknow. and I am unfortunately into guys who can skate #also they end up being the people I actually get to talk to with what I do. dumb as hell. they should invent gay hockey players #anyway my assessment is still vibes based there’s time for me to be proven wrong but we will see. it’d be funny if he was queer after this #will think abt texting him on a day that isn’t tomorrow bc tomorrow’s gonna be too much and I would like to have some time to chill sometime #anyway this is my periodic reminder to myself that I’m literally just Allowed to have feelings. fucked up that it’s true #but like it’s just. allowed. and it’s not even that I’m dumb or have bad taste or smth like that and over like what. #almost two years? there have been 5 guys total. mr prick who WAS queer unfortunately. and while the other four did turn out to be straight #that was due to 1. guy literally had rainbow fucking stick tape and Everyone thought he was gay. also I was just kinda fucking around there #2. talked to him like three times before asking him out. agrees to dinner bc he thinks it’s funny. 3. many signals bc bunch of queer friends #still unconfirmed but be does have a girlfriend ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 4. okay maybe I should know better by now but he’s cute okay I’m allowed to hope #it’s not even like I’ve DONE anything other than talk to him dude you’re fine you’re allowed to feel things #aaaanyway. bed now. eepy. will talk to him later. he complimented my hair okay I’m done now going to sleep #very sorry to anyone who reads these tags for just going on abt this guy but also no I’m not scroll down #luke.txt

[kurv4]

just realized if anything happens to my right hand is quite over for me

#minor vent in the tags #that moment when you realize one mishap and your physical disability will literally fuck up ur life lol #like. what would I do??? not just that id have to drop out bruh I wouldn’t even be able to eat by myself or shower or change clothes #im sorry if i sound insensitive or anything but this just hit me and im kinda scared as fuck #on the other hand it makes so much sense why my mom wouldn’t allow me to do stuff when I was a kid (biking skating skateboard etc.)
