"I Am Confusion"

This hits so incredibly hard, thanks OP for the perspective

ill figure it out <- common utterance of a girl who is completely fucked

“I am, after all, the predator hawk. I kill to eat.

But I am also the human being. And I can never take a life, not even for my own survival, without feeling.

I had heard my father’s message come down through the years. Now I heard the message my own mind was telling me: You are both, Tobias. Hawk and human. You always will be. You will always kill to eat. And you will always regret.

It’s a rotten situation, I guess. But my duty is to be what I am. A hawk. A boy. Instinct. And emotion. I’ll have to go on walking that tightrope.”

- Tobias, Book #23: The Pretender, pg. 153 (by K.A. Applegate)

Anyone else think so fast you don’t use words? The concept just clicks and your brain moves on, and trying to go back to slow it down and turn it into words for someone else is torture?

Support the ones with special interests that are praised, sought for or impressive; the ones whose special interests are mundane and everyday things, or even frowned upon and support Autistics who can't explain their special interest. Support Autistics with no special interest, too.

I'm not the first to say this. I won't be the last to say this.

But if you support Autistics, you need to support all Autistics.

Support the ones with moderate needs, the ones with high needs. The ones that are loud. The ones that haven't learnt any social skills and are seen as embarrassing by allistics.

Support the ones who are hyperverbal and talk way too much about their special interest.

Support the ones who are nonverbal and communicate with AAC and struggle to be heard.

Support the ones with stereotypical behaviours and then ones who mask so hard they deny they're autistic at all.

Support the Autistic parents who are exhausted all the time and the Autistics who still live with their parents.

Support Autistics all the time. Not just when they make you feel good.

Decided to draw a little comic. Thought of the idea of a little trans deerguy getting stoked about tiny antler nubs and thought I’d share.

Idea sparked by roachpatrol’s post.

Oh no I did something maybe possibly irritating or weird.

Now I will weird out us both while I additionally withdraw because I start overwhelming myself.

sorry for ignoring you ive been going insane
