Anti-death penalty rally in Arkansas with Johnny Depp, Damien Echols

JD not making sense, losing train of thought, and finally asking for someone to feed him his lines. Looks like those cognitive delays Dr. Spiegel was talking about.

TBH I was kind of cringing, waiting to see what they’d do with Jawbreaker and I’m very glad my fears were unfounded. Jawbreaker is a super sweet, well-considered character who gives me big “boys I’ve had crushes on in the past” vibes, he’s got old-school Cloud Cuckoolander vibes which is always the way I’ve preferred to receive my autistic rep, and I really like that the Earthspark team wants us to perceive him as a very compassionate, very caring, and that when there’s cross-communication issues, it’s not always Jawbreaker’s fault -- sometimes it’s the fault of the allistic characters around him who don’t listen, or expect him to communicate in a way he’s not prepared to do.

It’s just very sweet. I think Earthspark has a very loving attitude to the call-ins they make, there’s a real understanding that you can’t just write to the audience that knows someone like the character, you also need to write to the audience who would see themselves in that character. So often characters who are strongly coded neurodivergent come pre-judged by the narrative and have to narratively spend time endearing themselves to the audience -- Jawbreaker in contrast just gets to exist and be treated with full narrative agency from the start.

#Transformers Earthspark #Maccadam #of course I say 'autistic' and 'allistic' as largely like. That's how I parse that #maybe the intentions are different but the soft-spokenness and the delayed physical development really READ autistic and DDNOS to me #and I am just so happy to see a character who is like me when I was a kid #in a narrative that recognises that he's.... a kid he's still cognitively developing the abilities to function in a community #and that his process of developing them is going to be different from his siblings #I like that. I'm really glad we have children's TV like this now #fannish

It was ! He had a head trauma as a child and also has ADHD which is why he has memory issues sometimes so he's unable to get a real job. Also the memory issues is why he plagiarised everything, he would copy text for 'refenrence ' and then forgor what he himself wrote and what he copied :(((

Speaking as someone whose head had been glued 3 separate times as a child before the age of 7, had 4 concussions in one school year, and has ADHD myself, I think I'm MORE than qualified to say: what a fucking loser lmaoo

Find a goddamn job that doesn't need you to use other people's work to "reference" then. Work retail like the fucking rest of us ya fucking pussy. Cope bitch.

#ty for answering lmao bc i care so little ab him that i just wouldnt ever look it up myself shdhdhhd #but god can you imagine being a grown ass adult and being like uwu but but my my bwain fucky wucky uwu you HAVE to let me steal from you uwu #theres other jobs you fucking loser dont go into a field where you have to think for yourself then #he should have just quietly disappeared from the internet man what a goddamn pussy #and like theres COUNTLESS of academics with ADHD. ones with head trauma/cognitive issues who get on fine through their whole careers never #ONCE plagiarizing someone else like either it's a skill issue on his part or uh maybe just MAYBE he's a lying asshole who stole for #so long that he thought he'd get away with it forever and ever bc hes mommys most special boy ever #marquilla #just ask (marco)#asks #the concussions were all in gym class and i lost the abilty to have ANY semblance of 'night vision'/low light vision for like 3 years at #least not to mention delayed reaction time and chronic headaches and you know what? i NEVER plagiarized not even once #huh weird...#sorry sgdddgd im just salty ab this fuckhead trying to claim it's a disability that made him steal multiple peoples work #what a fucking little bitch

o great and powerful sensei latlat, plz give me advice on how to beat up my bully neighbor >:( he has accused me of stealing his lawnmower and is gonna kick my ass for this made up crime ;A;

S... Sen... Se... Sensei LatLat? Huh?!

Okay, um, please try to talk it out. Of all the things to fight someone over, landscaping seems like a really stupid reason to make things go bad...

If you really have to fight, though, the key is to know yourself? Know your skills and work with them. If you are strong and big, brute force is best. Endurance means focus on outlasting an opponent, being nimble means dodging more...

And I'm not any of those things, so I have to be smart. Having a solid understanding of anatomy and rupturing a vital organ is a surefire way to end a fight fast. Being small makes it easier to hit torso targets. But that's extreme, so again, try to talk it out. Maybe help him search for this lawnmower.

And if all else fails, get friends or family to help. Your neighbor might want to call you a coward for putting your trust in others, but he will not be able to call you anything if his teeth are kicked in by your trustworthy buddy.

Again, I cannot stress this enough, PLEASE DO NOT RESORT TO PHYSICAL VIOLENCE OVER A TOOL. This is reference for self-defense if this bully insists on escalating it into something truly dangerous or in other more dire situations. Maybe try conflict resolution therapy or something? Did you try pinning the blame on someone else? Or inviting him over for tea and calmly explaining the misunderstanding? Bake him a bread! Homemade bread is the most good-faith food there is!

Ooh, wait! Also, learn to improvise. Having a weapon with you all the time is extreme, but training yourself to look around you and thinking how you could defend yourself with mundane things is a good habit to get into. I've even used things like flowers and credit cards. Credit cards are actually quite effective when you file one edge into a blade beforehand. I always have a sharpened one on me just in case.

Ak, I keep talking, but I should have left it at don't fight over lawn care equipment. If you want to fight, get a real problem. Wait, no, don't - I don't mean - Don't fight! Just - Just forget this conversation happened, alright?! Do not fight him!

#ic #this is so old but I've been thinking about it every day for two weeks anon. And now it is ready.#i had way too much fun with this #yes he is soft and sweet but dude has SURVIVED he KNOWS HOW TO THROW TF DOWN IF NEEDED.#particularly by stabbing in the gallbladder to burn the abdominal cavity with bile.#Remember: If you can easily hit their carotid artery real hard then you can cause temporary cognitive impairment that'll delay reaction tim #...or hemorrhagic stroke but let's ignore that risk

Uncommon

Nothing is ever what it seems.

We're so used to sameness that when something or someone comes along that is different we tend to not listen or we tend to not see what is right before our eyes.

The very art of articulation is so often taken for granted. The greater majority of people are able to speak their minds, enjoy conversations with their family and friends, create stories, even tell lies and manipulate others, but what of those people for whom the simple art of just knowing when to speak or what to say no matter the situation, eludes them?

If I have learnt anything from living with the seemingly unexplainable it is that if the air around me were clearer, if the environment were less hostile then the words I need to speak to save lives, to save others from so much unnecessary heartache would be so much easier.

I try so hard to not make too many generalisations when it comes to these sensitive topics but I can't help but feel that there are just so many people out there like me who need a voice, someone to represent them, someone to explain why they seem so indifferent when in reality they may just be diffident and there is nothing wrong with being shy.

The invisibility of the developmental delay does have its downsides but there are hidden positives as well, if you know what you're looking for. Sure the negatives do outweigh the positives but the environment plays a significant role in how each and every one of us become the person we are today.

It's a HUGE social and community responsibility but each and everyone of us has a role.

What I am trying to say in a rather long-winded way is that people with developmental delay are not as Uncommon as you would think. As a spectrum disorder it's elusiveness depends on the person's learned behaviour from their upbringing. The mere fact that we know we are different comes from being able to detect the difference in ourselves, just by possessing the ability to observe.

I think this is what tipped me off about how many symptoms I have and have had and how well I have been able to conceal these over the years, just to fit in, hopefully to be accepted. I learnt to adapt by becoming someone I am not and that has been quite damaging indeed.

It is hard enough having to deal with one identity but to deal with a few, well now that takes a very special kind of person. I'm not talking about dissociation disorders, I'm talking about hiding symptoms that make people appear to be different, even repressing what comes naturally and eventually learning that we were not who we thought we were before we knew about our diagnoses, professionally or from self-diagnosis.

The diversity of life is do incredibly vast, how do we know the difference between what we know to be the norm and who society agrees are "different", cause I've got to say, I really don't appreciate being called out as different be it because of my disabilities, disorders or because of my sexuality. Or any other special abilities I may or may not have.

Believe it or not people with FASD and other coexisting disorders are not as Uncommon as you may think.

..till next time. 😘😎💪💪

Sensory Overload: The Hidden Obstacle to Brain Injury Recovery

The Negative Impact of Sensory Overload on Brain Injury Recovery

#RT Sensory Overload: The Hidden Obstacle to Brain Injury Recovery https://ctbraininjury.com/post/sensory-overload-the-hidden-obstacle-to-brain-injury-recovery… The Negative Impact of Sensory Overload on Brain Injury Recovery Brain injury recovery is a complex process that often involves various therapies and treatments to help patients regain their cognitive, emotional, and physical abilities. However, one of the lesser-known factors that can hinder recovery is sensory overload. This phenomenon occurs when the brain is inundated with information from the five senses--light, sound, taste, touch, and smell--and is unable to process it effectively. As a result, the brain perceives this as a threat and goes into fight, flight, or freeze mode, which can exacerbate symptoms and delay progress in rehabilitation. Increased Anxiety and Stress When the brain is overwhelmed by sensory input, it can trigger anxiety and stress responses. These heightened emotional states can exacerbate existing symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, and cognitive difficulties. Moreover, chronic stress and anxiety can impair neuroplasticity, the brain's ability to adapt and rewire itself, which is crucial for recovery after an injury. #sensory overload, brain injury recovery, #rehabilitation, #anxietyty, #stresss, cognitive function, sleep disturbances, emotional dysregulation, calm environment, #neuroplasticity, #occupationaltherapy therapy, physical therapy, cognitive fatigue, sleep schedule, weighted blankets, fidget toys, gradual exposure, stimulating environments, professional support, neuropsychologist, sensory aids, interpersonal relationships, functional recovery, independence, sensory stimulation #tbisurvivor #tbirecovery #tbiawareness #strokesurvivor #strokeprevention #strokerecovery #stroke #strokeawareness #braininjury #braintumorsurvivor #brainhealth ABI Resources is a reputable organization that provides exceptional support to individuals and families in collaboration with various government agencies and community service providers, including the Connecticut Department of Social Services DSS, COU Community Options, the Connecticut Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services DMHAS, Connecticut Community Care CCC CCCI Southwestern Connecticut Area on Aging SWCAA, Western Connecticut Area on Aging WCAAA, Allied Community Resources ACR, Access Health, and United Services.
