Oh you love that musician that wears a strait jacket in a music video?

Oh you love haunted house attractions that are 'insane asylum' themed?

Oh you love that horror movie where the villain is portrayed to be psychotic?

But do you respect and care for mentally ill people who have been restrained because they were a danger to themselves or others?

But do you respect and care for people who are constantly in and out of psych wards, or have to live full time in psychiatric facilities?

But do you respect and care for people who have psychotic disorders, especially if they are poc and/or homeless?

Do you see us as real people, or do you just like the aesthetic of our suffering for your entertainment?

I was already in love with Delicious In Dungeon for the clever world building and well crafted characters but episode 17 brought a true smile to my face for something far more mundane and close to my heart; Shuro completely fumbling how to deal with a neurodivergent person (Laios), and getting slugged for it. Bless this series for shouting out "we are not obligated to engage in your unwritten rules, if you have a problem just fucking say it". Refreshing.

So, I posted my previous "autism monster" on reddit and someone had the gall to say it wasn't "monstrous enough". And I took that personal!

So I took on the challenge and set out to create something truly horrifying. So I present to you: The Autism Abomination!

It's my first time drawing something in this style, but I hope I actually did it well enough.

remind that no matter how 'severe' or 'mild' your tics are, its normal for them to sometimes be worse and other times barely noticeable!

its apart of the tics/tourettes phenomenon called "waxing and waning" and if anything, should make you feel more validated in your diagnosis <3

Why do you think neurotypical people mistake neurodivergent people for be really sarcastic?

Possibly because we tend to be super direct whereas neurotypicals usually dance around the point a lot more. So when we say something bluntly, they get all confused because that's not how they would communicate it, so they assume sarcasm. Probably also our tone - a lot of autistic people struggle to control their tone or naturally have a 'flat-affect' which can come across as sarcastic.

It's annoying to be misinterpreted constantly, but also sometimes people think I'm being incredibly funny for stating something obvious so 🤷‍♀️

Phantom HC ⚡

(tw: mention and description of tics and related injuries)

Phantom has a tic disorder. It's quite unnoticeable to everyone else but he definitely notices when he's ticcing. He has a lot of minor face tics so if people do see him tic, they mistake it for him pulling weird faces/being extremely expressive. The only people who know about his disorder are Copia and Aether. Aether sensed it and also checked him up when he first noticed, and Copia knows because it had to be written in Phantom's file. Occasionally, Phantom has vocal tics that are louder/more obvious than throat clearing and clicking but the pack seems to think his generic ghoul noises are a bit more different than everyone else's. His tics get significantly worse when he's stressed, tired, or excited. If he feels bigger tics or a tic attack coming on, he retreats to his room and calls for Aether to sit with him and tend to any injuries he receives if he's been punching. He usually takes a day off after a tic attack but people know Phantom likes a good long nap now and again so don't think much of it. Phantom doesn't want to tell anyone else in case they become concerned about him which would probably make his tics worse. He's also terrified of judgement even though he knows there wouldn't be any.

I just had a dream that gave me one of the best phrases. You know how when queer people spot another queer person it's called "gaydar"? Well in my dream, when a neurodivergent person clocks another neurodivergent person it's called "spectrometer".

15 year old google psychologist on tiktok: you HAVE to be PROFESSIONALLY DIAGNOSED WITH AUTISM or else youre a FAKER whos STEALING RESOURCES from ACTUAL PEOPLE WITH AUTISM

psychiatrist: you dont act autistic. ok well i guess you acted autistic as a kid but not now so clearly something changed. whats masking?

psychiatrist: you experience a lot of traits of autism but you made eye contact with me for a bit so you cant be autistic

psychiatrist: you cant be autistic because youre too smart

psychiatrist: well you experience profound symptoms of autism but your brothers already diagnosed with autism and thats not possible for you both to be

psychiatrist: ok you seem autistic however youre a teenage girl. have you considered you might have borderline personality disorder/bipolar disorder instead?

*also when you get diagnosed*

psychiatrist: i cant advocate for your disabling ptsd to the government, i can only do autism. yes i know your autism isnt the actual problem here but have you considered that youre just being autistic about it?

psychiatrist: i cant write a letter of recommendation for gender affirming care because youre autistic. yes i know you work a full time job and live independently but youre not capable of making these decisions

psychiatrist: *doesnt try to treat/talk about anything but the autism*

the 15 year old again: i know you SAID youre diagnosed with autism but i dont believe you because anyone can say that, so im going to continue to harrass you about it anyway

•subtitles, closed captions, and open captions aren't the same thing.

subtitles exist for the purpose of conveying the dialogue of a movie/show/video. you can change the language (usually) and turn them on and off at will. these are typically boxes at the bottom of the screen with words. they can be used for translation, to better understand speech, etc. subtitles aren't always reliable at conveying the dialogue accurately, and can be delayed or too fast in accordance to the video. you can use subtitles to know what is being said.

closed captions identify the speaker, dialogue, and any noise. they follow along all the audio and if it's something spoken, who says it (usually). these are also typically boxes at the bottoms of the screen with words. these can be used to understand all the audio, translate, etc. closed captions aren't always reliable in conveying the audio correctly, and can be delayed or too fast in accordance to the video. you can use closed captions to know everything that is going on involving sound.

open captions are like closed captions. they were established for the same purpose. you cannot turn open captions on and off. they are a part of the video, the creator purposefully put them there, most likely for accessibility purposes. these, most of the time, convey all audio and are pretty accurate, and are synchronized with the video. these often are just words on the screen, usually in a contrasting color than the background.

all can be used for accessibility reasons or not, but open captions are the better of the three.

i am not hard of hearing or d/Deaf. i do struggle understanding sound clearly due to ADHD. i always have on closed captions because i can't understand speech clearly often, and struggle with focusing on one sound when there are many going on (for example, if i'm in a loud room, i can't just turn the volume up. that does nothing for me but make the confusion louder.)

people with any sort of hearing impairment (hearing loss, APD, neurodivergent related hearing issues, etc) prefer and/or need written audio like these things provide. open captions are the most optimal, and should be in more movies, shows, videos, etc. i understand not all people need or want them, but countless people do. if you make videos or things like that of any kind, please consider adding open captions for the sake of people with hearing impairments.

even if you don't, and you read all this, thanks :) this took a long time to type and it's just good info to know.

Thinking about wasps as metaphor for narcissists... They're widely labeled aggressive and dangerous, although that's not totally accurate. Misinformation and demonization of wasps is everywhere... Sometimes wasps get provoked by things that seem insignificant to everyone else, so they think the wasp is evil when it was just trying to survive..

I love you, wasps.
