So I’ve developed a new stim recently. Chanting. It’s just in my head bc I seem to go nonverbal during the bouts. But the problem is the words that I tend to stim with. Like just now I’m sitting at a table in a bookstore, rocking back and forth muttering in my head, ”rot, rot, rot, rot, rot, rot.”

#stimming #horror #maybe?? #chanting #eeriecore

I say I’m demiagender and leave it at that bc it seems specific enough to be like ok yeah but if you think about it it’s like,, demiagender? Part agender and part what? Like fuck if I know XD

I love vague labels that make people go "but that's confusing" or "but that could mean anything" Good. Keep guessing lol

Since discovering I was autistic, one thing I've really noticed is just how often people comment on my facial expressions.

Like the "Are you okay??? You look upset" when I'm completely content.

Or telling me that I looked pained or pissed off when I'm focusing on or thinking about something.

I always knew people commented on my facial expressions a lot, but it is nearly CONSTANT. Like, everytime I am at a gathering with multiple people, someone will comment on my face and how upset I look.

It makes me so uncomfortable & self conscious. How do you start unmasking when everyone feels entitled to comment to even the most basic things?

Same

My toxic trait is that I truly believe I could win a fight against anybody if I was mad enough. U might have the strength and size but I have pure, unfiltered rage.

hi! i saw your post about wanting more aplatonic media and i was wondering what sorts of themes/stories you’d like to see?

-People actually considering consent and boundaries with friendship

-Not forcing others into the label of friendship (Lots of ppl irl and in fiction sort of just decide 'oh we're friends' without asking the other person which you rlly don't see ppl do w romantic, qpr, or sexual relationships much)

-People who say they don't want friendship actually being respected instead of seen as sad and lonely

-People having relationships of other kinds, hobbies, interests, etc. rather than always having friends or wanting friends

-Acquaintanceships or less close friendships that aren't treated as inherently lesser or as something that will inevitably turn into friendship

-Aspec orientations like aro and ace not being talked about solely as 'still wanting friends/being satisfied w friendship'

-Characters who explicitly id as aplatonic, aplspec, plato averse, plato favorable, nonfriending, etc.

-Plato repulsion being respected and it being understood when someone says they don't want to be around or hear about friendship/platonicism

-Having Aplatonicism, having no friends, and/or being nonfriending seen as valid things instead of being seen as inherently due to 'being a bad person' or depression, etc.

-Respecting when someone's neurodivergence and/or mental illness interacts w their aplatonicism and/or difficulties with friendship, and any boundaries or communication needs that result

-While saying one can also do x thing (cuddling, saying I love you, etc.) With friends people should also acknowledge that its okay to not want to engage in those things and that consent still applies here as it does w romantic, sexual, nonrose, etc.

-One major thing is I'd like to see stories stop defaulting to platonic love as the saviour if romantic love isn't the major theme of the plot. Its platonormative to imply that all a character needed was friendship all along and that its a quick fix for their issues by default. This is especially troubling when done to a character who expresses repulsion or disinterest in friendship and most ppl don't recognise this as negative but do sometimes seem to recognise its bad when done abt sexual or romantic attraction/relationships.

-Not villifying ppl or characters for not wanting friendship or not prioritising friendship. Most ppl seem to know it's creepy to push someone to be in romantic or sexual situations but seem to think its okay to just 'try harder' to make someone your friend which is an issue.

-Storylines about it being healing for an apl, nonfriending person, or just someone for whom friendship or a particular friendship was not healthy to engage in, to step away from friendship, end a friendship, or choose to not have friendships

And there are probably others as well, anyone(especially other apls, plato averse and/or nonfriending ppl) else can feel free to add on to this if they wish(but not in ways that are exclusionary of apls or platonormative ofc)

A better description is here because full description would not fit.

Image description: 9 panel comic. A mouse in an aromantic flag scarf is sitting in front of a teapot, two tea cups, and a cake. A heart is hovering in the air with a smile. The heart says, “Love is the best. I bet you’re in love with someone. Look at you setting up a tea party. How romantic.”

In the second panel the mouse replies, “I’m aromantic. The tea party is for my friend.” The hearts smile is a little smaller and its pupils have shrunk. It says, “But friends…”

In the third panel a planaria in an aplatonic (purple, blue, green, and yellow stripes) scarf arrives. The hearts pupils have expanded to normal size and it says, “You two must really love each other as friends.” The worm says, “No. I am aplatonic.” The mouse is texting.

In the fourth panel the heart looks annoyed and says, “Love is what makes us human.” The planaria says it is a worm. A seal arrives and asks what the problem is.

In the fifth panel the heart says, “These people don’t love!“ The seal replies that that is not a problem while the mouse and the worm point out that they never said that. The seal is wearing the loveless aromantic flag as a cape.

In the sixth panel the heart has its eyes closed in frustration and says, “Love is what makes us human.” The mouse and worm point out that they are a mouse and worm. The seal’s eyes glow red.

The seal fires red laser beams out of its eyes at the heart. The heart says ow.

The heart has two red burns on it. Its eyes water and it looks sad. The mouse looks sympathetic and the seal looks pleased.

The heart is lower to the ground and has band aids. It has a sad face. The mouse looks sympathetic and pats the heart. The heart asks, “Why do you all hate me?” The seal replies “We don’t all hate you. We just wish you would leave us alone sometimes. Or always.” The mouse says, “Plenty of people like you. Go bother them instead of us.” End description.

2am this time and I accidentally reread this as,

”bobs banked” so I guess I could go downhill some more

Jobs ranked by how funny it would be if a robot takes them

I think "youth pastor" is probably up there

Reblog with your animal. It’s toucans for me

#cats and cthulhu not even joking #pride stuff is also a good bet #my mom painted my name once using the ace colours and if I could cry I would have

It is 3am and I read the first two words as ”robs banks” instead of ”jobs ranked” and I’d like to blame dyslexia but I am also exhausted and pitiful
