Calling it now: The Michael Sheen autism show “The Assembly” is going to be a bigger bomb than the outrageously mediocre Frost/Nixon and I for one am an autist excited to be fed with cringe ragebait the world has not seen since “The Other Sister”

Ok but can we talk about how accurate overstimulation is portrayed in GL issue 10 with Kyle.
He’s repeating words and phrases (echolalia)
He’s shown sitting down staring at the wall. Which often means he’s experiencing a shutdown
And I mean
Kyle is experiencing too much emotions, which can be a contributing factor to overstimulation (It’s not the ONLY ONE of course!)
Knowing DC they’re probably going to write this as Kyle having magical emotion powers where he experiences all of them and knows when they are in a crisis or something (Hey fun fact DC autistic people can be sensitive to emotions more than usual and also get overwhelmed by them a lot easier too.)
But this just solidifies that Kyle is autistic. This is one of the most accurate portrayals of overstimulation I’ve seen in comics and it wasn’t even INTENTIONAL.

Not to be extreme but dear God hold onto hope.
Things will be better one day. People will sing and dance in colorful clothes under dazzling lights again. A parent will rock their child to sleep on a quiet night again. A grandparent will teach their grandchild to cook a family recipe again. People will laugh and cry and love and grieve in the most mundane of ways once more. This will happen no matter what you believe, but hoping and believing in such things will ease your heart and kindle your resolve to see it within your lifetime. Have hope, and you will give life to the world you hope to see.

Hello! Can you do the phrase “the ‘tism”
My partner and I use it as a joke when referencing autism and we talk about our special interests or pointing out our routines (both of us are autistic). Thank you I’m advance ^^
Yep! Sure thing

me when I didn’t get the good at math autism or the good at art autism or even the obsessing over fictional men autism instead I got the apathy autism. the too much executive dysfunction to even do the things that make me happy autism. the social anxiety to the point where shooting a quick dm to someone carries the weight of the world autism. the unable to express emotion or communicate properly to the point where it ruins my relationships because people think I don’t give a shit about them when there is so much care inside me that my brain will not let me express autism

I love shows that take you on like. A mental health journey while you watch them. Like
Me: oh man I’m having trouble finding people to date that sucks :/
*watches first two seasons of crazy ex-girlfriend*
Me: I will be alone forever nobody will ever love me or be attracted to me I am in desperate need of therapy
*watches last two seasons of crazy ex-girlfriend*
Me: I am absolutely capable of finding romantic love but I don’t need it cause I’m worth so much more than who I date and happiness comes internal peace and not external validation

hello all you beautiful people; it seems that christmas came early!
this year i really wanted the “elvis: now and forever” ring from the bradford exchange. so, i ordered it!
it arrived early today. i was gonna put it under my tree and wait until christmas to open it, but i couldn’t resist!
so, without further ado…the ring⚡️
pictures truly cannot do it justice. it’s shiny and beautiful and all things brilliant! it even has a facsimile of his signature on the inside :,)
(here’s some photos of autistic joy aka me being a smiley boy!!)
this ring will stay on me till kingdom come.
…and if kingdom DONT come, you’ll have to pry it from my cold dead hands🥰
-wishing y’all christmas joy, calla xx
