I have delivered on (the first part of) my promise. My dogs are Saint Bernards, and biological brothers (1 year apart in age).
This is Rooney (5). He is very lazy, and he might think he's a cat. Rooney especially likes pillows, blankets, and anything that is soft (but if he is left unattended with them, he will eat them).
And this is Blue (4). He is a ball of energy. He loves everyone SO MUCH, and, bless his heart, he's kind of an idiot (he will respond to anything you call him, including "Spic'n'Span," "Chicken Nugget," and
Rooney and Blue also like to cuddle with each other ALL. THE. TIME. Even when Blue was only a few months old.

i can’t think about ferb or i get emotional about how phineas always makes sure to include him and even though they don’t talk so much the rest of the gang clearly enjoys his company and like. he’s a valued member of any group he’s in despite having a quieter presence. he has a flat affect but he isn’t made out to be emotionless. not even a little! he very much has a personality.
no one ever pushes him to talk more than he’s comfortable with. are there jokes about his quietness? sure. but they’re never mean. even in the group musical numbers! the kids perform a song together, but ferb doesn’t have to sing even when everyone else does, but he’s still there dancing / playing instruments with the rest of them. he’s included!!!
a lot of his lines are to share some fact that he thinks is interesting. he’s a genius. he’s a silly kid. he’s musically gifted. he wants to direct movies. he hates being interrupted.
basically ferb fletcher rocks

I think truly the best asexual rep out there is Perry the Platypus and that is because nothing about his character and none of his storylines have anything to do with the fact that he's asexual, he's just a secret agent who beats up an evil scientist on a daily basis and loves his family more than anything else and that's always treated as a totally normal and completely fulfilling life for him
I always think about how quickly Dan and Swampy said "NO" when asked if Perry would ever have a girlfriend in AYA, and how immediately Dan said, "Does asexual count?" when asked if Perry is queer, I think it's something they always knew about him (even if they didn't think of it as him being "asexual" before that word was more widely known) and I love that they never made a big deal out of it, he just exists as an asexual guy (well, platypus) and I love that so much

rewatching pnf season 1 and here are some of the neurodivergent highlights!
“obsession rocks!!!” said at a moment when candace and stacy were gleefully bonding over their love of the bettys. the joy of new hyperfixation!!!!
“fossils! dun dun dun…” my man lawrence vocal and audio stimming let’s go!
perry crashes in, heinz doesn’t react, perry goes over to heinz and pokes him in the nose, revealing heinz is an inflatable decoy. perry immediately pokes the inflatable nose several more times! autism is stored in the platypus
jeremy tells candace he’ll call her soon, so cancace goes into waiting mode the next morning and tries to find the exact meaning of “soon.”
candace (scared of heights) on a ferris wheel. jeremy asks her what’s wrong and candace wordlessly indicates the drop. she contonues not to speak after jeremy comforts her. loss of speech!
phineas usually displays empathy, but when buford loses biff, phineas shows annoyance and doesn’t seem to empathize. nevertheless, he helps buford both with emotional support and by working to solve the problem. this is because i’m projecting fluctuating empathy onto him and also because empathy ≠ kindness.
baljeet owns a lot of books on a seemingly uninteresting topic (shoelaces). conclusion- he fixated on the topic in the past and got all the information he could find at once!
one of dr. d’s schemes is entirely because he considers the noise outside his building to be too loud and he can’t concentrate. he gets off-topic in conversation and apologizes, blaming his lack of focus on the noise. it’s harder to act neurotypical when you’re sensory overloaded, ok?
at one point heinz tells perry that there’s a tin cup inside his cage for him to play with, specifically because of the sound it makes. perry proceeds to move this tin cup around for a while.
vanessa sensory overloaded by the sound of heinz building vs heinz making incoherent sounds while he builds (vocal stimming!). in a different episode vanessa uses earbuds to deal with her dad making noise.
honorable mention: stacy and candace reading all of sherlock holmes in one night / dressing as the characters the next day
