its, its so me.....

A creechur for my overlap chronic pain and autism buds

I want your opinions on all the tmc characters.... whos your fav ? :3

this is a tricky one... this post got VERY LONG.

mark: genuinely this guy is so mentally strong i swear. i've said it so many times but he was forced to stay in his room for DAYS with an alternate on the other side of the door TORMENTING him with voices and bringing up his LITTLE SISTER to provoke him. when he cracked he decided he wasn't going down alone and started SHOOTING AT THIS THING. HE USED MULTIPLE BULLETS ON IT. for me that's such a powerful death. mark heathcliff what a wonderful thing

cesar: come on. LMFAOOOOOO listen i love MY interpretation of cesar's character but in canon we have NOTHING. i made an entire post about he hasn't actually shown up ONCE in canon yet it's just been his alternate. so as much as i love cesar torres bffs with mark heathcliff oldest heathcliff sibling mama's boy... that's NOT what he is in canon and that's ok! i am excited to see what he's like in canon though ^-^

adam: wow. jesus okay so. this guy is a Lot? vol 2 he a guy with an obsession with alternates because his mom died from one & the alternates have an equal fascination with him. vol 4 ok turns out he's acting pretty mean OH ok he's an alternate now? alright that's. yeah that adds complexity to his character excited to see where this goes. catalyst HOLY FUCKING SHIT GET OFF THE FLOOR GET A SHIRT ON WHY ARE ALL OF YOUR BONES BREAKING AT THE SAME TIME. i thought THATCHER was the punching bag of this series not ADAM MURRAY. like this guy is in so much turmoil and pain both physically and mentally. THIS GUY NEEDS HELP!!!!!

jonah: jonah defenders STAND TALL STAND STRONG!!!!!! but in reality jonah is definitely an odd case. he's obviously very nervous about these alternates but tags along seemingly FOR adam because why else would he be here. his explosion at the end of vol 2 is because of the building anxiety and terror of these alternates and he does not want his friend to be hurt by these things that he tries so hard to pursue. granted this is not an excuse for the things he says, ESPECIALLY when he brings up adam's DEAD MOTHER AND SAYS HE WISHES THEY NEVER LOOKED FOR HER BECAUSE SHE'S DEAD AND GONE? jonah i don't know how much i can defend you dude. he ends up leaving adam behind which is another shitty thing but consider: what else can he DO? he blew up at his friend TRYING to get him to leave the house filled with things that will KILL HIM and his friend (presumably because it was his voice) tells him to fucking leave. jonah's NOT going inside that house and he's not waiting out there for him to finish his little get-together with his alternate friends. he is FILLED with sheer panic and terror and has come to the understanding that he CANNOT save his stubborn friend and the only person he can save is himself. so he leaves. and dies.

thatcher: dear lord where do i begin with this man. i know i love calling him a sopping wet pathetic paper bag of a man but he has genuinely lost so much. he lost his best friend and is in clear AGONY over this loss, writing to her and reading it out loud knowing she can't hear or respond or even KNOW he's talking to her. he is tormented by creatures in his closet and around his house, INCLUDING the literal DEVIL HIMSELF. it's unclear whether or not dave and thatcher are friends in canon but they are definitely connected in some way if thatcher is sending dave tapes to recover. presumably the ONLY OTHER PERSON he has contact with dies too. he is surrounded by death and creatures that thrive off it. and if we are to assume he was the one who saw adam in catalyst, that REALLY does not help him AT ALL. i don't know if he ran away or what with the camera dropping, but this guy's mental state is THROUGH THE GROUND

ruth: i'm gonna be honest with you she had like 5 minutes of screentime and she died so fast. similarly to cesar i enjoy mine and others' interpretations of her character but it is IMPOSSIBLE to gauge much from her in canon. the most we can probably get is she's determined because she went into that house despite everyone else "[pussying] out" as she put it. sorry ruth but you were great for your 5 minutes of volume time. plus you gave us "babygirl thatcher davis" which we will never forget. alex kister please stop killing your characters off so early if you must kill them

dave: listen. i don't know if he's my favorite but he is objectively the funniest character that is and ever will be in the mandela catalogue. the guy shows up as a joke to promote the intruder plush, shows up for REAL in vol 333 to help out with the stanley tape, comes back AGAIN to promo the cesar plush WITH EVELIN, shows up in vol 4, meets THE DEVIL HIMSELF, and his eyes and brain explode and he dies. AND THEN WHEN THE PREACHER PLUSH GETS PROMOED HE GETS BROUGHT BACK JUST TO DIE AGAIN. HE IS ONLY SEEN AS A BLOODSTAIN. GENUINELY YOU CANNOT GET A FUNNIER GUY THAN THIS. yeah i know he inadvertently aided with the alternate invasion but he was funny while he did it so...? but to be serious, the absolute TORRENT of emotions this guy must have been feeling once he realized he accidentally helped the DEVIL is unimaginable. was he scared that he was going to die? did he welcome death, knowing now what he did? did he know that thatcher was going to die too? a lot to think about

sarah: SARAH HEATHCLIFF OHHHH MY GOD (RIPS OFF MY SHIRT TO REVEAL #1 SARAH HEATHCLIFF DEFENDER ON ANOTHER SHIRT) sarah has lost so much in terms of her brother and makes sure the police KNOW what they did and who they let die. she is furious at adam for acting so nonchalant about jonah's death (his BEST FRIEND to her knowledge) yet is still concerned when she leaves him the voicemail at the end of vol 4. she cares so much but she has a difficult time SHOWING it. i'm not sure what the hell she was doing in mandela catalyst with the "he's fine" stuff (adam murray is in AGONY) but i'm sure it'll get explained at some point. she's overcome so much and is STILL dealing with so much shit but she is being so strong and i have nothing but respect for her

evelin: last but not least is EVELIN. if the "curiosity killed the cat" saying was a person. i say that a lot but it's curiosity that led to her watching those tapes marked SPECIFICALLY FOR DAVE FROM THATCHER. she got fired for her curiosity, went to the police station like dave suggested and what did she do as soon as she got there? SHE WENT INTO THE POLICE STATION ARCHIVES AND STARTED POKING AROUND. YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS DO YOU NOT LEARN EVELIN MILLER????? at the end of vol 4 it is ASSUMED that you're dead but then you show up in mandela catalyst COMPLETELY FINE? like i said before i'm sure it'll get explained but it's funny as hell for the time being. WITH MANDELA CATALYST assuming that the texts between her and sarah take place BEFORE she sees the preacher, this is her curiosity AGAIN. i'm betting that it's out of concern for adam as well, but despite sarah saying he's fine, she still went to find him anyway. she's a very curiosity-motivated character and if i have to type curiosity one more time i'm going to lose my mind. anyway

so to answer your question of who my favorite character is... that's still a really tough one. characters are still being fleshed out and characterized, and they're shifting so much! so how about i hold onto this for a little while and get back to you when the series is over ^-^ i hope you're not too disappointed by this answer! it's just hard to pick a favorite when they're still building. in any case, i really hope you enjoyed reading my word vomit! i had so much fun writing about these characters

THEY SOLO. also idk even the collector is really a villain i just know they are sarcastic from “u wanna play tag” line guess we will find out from for the future. is belos sarcastic? hmmmmmmm idk life crazy

Every person need to be taught disability history

Not the “oh Einstein was probably autistic” or the sanitized Helen Keller story. but this history disabled people have made and has been made for us.

Teach them about Carrie Buck, who was sterilized against her will, sued in 1927, and lost because “Three generations of imbeciles [were] enough.”

Teach them about Judith Heumann and her associates, who in 1977, held the longest sit in a government building for the enactment of 504 protection passed three years earlier.

Teach them about all the Baby Does, newborns in 1980s who were born disabled and who doctors left to die without treatment, who’s deaths lead to the passing of The Baby Doe amendment to the child abuse law in 1984.

Teach them about the deaf students at Gallaudet University, a liberal arts school for the deaf, who in 1988, protested the appointment of yet another hearing president and successfully elected I. King Jordan as their first deaf president.

Teach them about Jim Sinclair, who at the 1993 international Autism Conference stood and said “don’t mourn for us. We are alive. We are real. And we’re here waiting for you.”

Teach about the disability activists who laid down in front of buses for accessible transit in 1978, crawled up the steps of congress in 1990 for the ADA, and fight against police brutality, poverty, restricted access to medical care, and abuse today.

Teach about us.

ive had the first one happen more but I've had that and unsolicited advice sobs

Note: 'against your will' includes being coerced into something you didn't want.

If someone recommended it and then it was actually tried, select one of the first two.

Let me know in the tags or replies if you know someone who was offered faith healing as a cure for their disability (not a temporary illness).

discuss

shout out to people with spatial awareness issues. wishing you a "didn't bump into any table corners or walls" day today!

blank copy

blank copy :D

Pls help there's an alternate in my closet. He wants to come out

{transcript: Atlas , 14 he/it. Best stim is meowing. favorite autistic characters are Mable Pines from gravity falls and Twyla Boogeyman from monster high. Biggest challenge is being semi-verbal. Biggest talent is that I can identify cat breeds. special interest facts, 1 cats follow humans when they see them as their mom. 2 cats purr on you to heal you, and their purr can heal themself too! what I want allistics to know it i just need support, i am who i am}

“Awareness” is sooo yesterday, man. All the cool kids are leveling up, you should try it.

Important Announcement:

April Fools Day (April 1) is one week away. To that end, I just want it known now, well before the day, that this blog will NOT be posting any jump scares, fake announcements, freak-out posts, fake hackings, fake emergencies, fake news, and “gotcha!” stuff on April Fools Day. We’re staying safe and chill around here.

I’m honestly not into April Fools Day, really, unless the jokes are obvious and silly–like Rickrolls and Dad Jokes. Rickrolls and Dad Jokes are just traditional. 

I am currently working on a story and I'm so happy its so fun and I forgot I somewhat know how to draw arcade cabinets :DD (im like making a story based off of cabinet man by lemon demon, so arcade cabinets :>)

but i may post drawings on here n stuff so if those pop up here's the backstory

i drop it in soften but not often (unless stuttering)

PLEASE reblog, I have heard it on a couple of podcasts now and I'm genuinely curious how common it is! Also, if you feel comfortable with it, let me know what your accent normally is (Midwestern, Southern, New Englander, New Yorker, Minnesotan, whatever).

put in the tags:

whether you are neurodivergent (or starting to consider the possibility)

your exact score

anything you hate that wasn't on here

and the number one food you Will Not Eat.

(Tw for a VERY brief mention of infantilization)

I want to talk about interacting with AAC users in person, specifically for speaking people.

1. Being an AAC user, I get left behind during conversations a lot because it takes me longer to add in my statement. By the time I'm done, the topic has oftentimes changed and then what I want to say isnt relevant anymore, and sometimes wont even be understood because to everyone else what I just said was out of place and random. This feels really frustrating and sometimes isolating, as well as embarrassing. Please wait for us, we want to converse too.

2. Sometimes when I am not yet done responding, people will watch me and try to guess what I'm going to say. If all I've got down so far is "I already", people might go "I already.. know!" "I already.. saw!" etc. Please stop doing that. Even if you got the idea correct, you might use the wrong words, which frustrates me. And even if you say it all correctly it's still frustrating, imagine if someone tried to guess what you were saying by interrupting you every time you started to talk. It's annoying.

3. Dont comment on what in our folders. If I open a folder to get to another word, and whilst doing that you see a different word in it that's funny or inappropriate or whatever, keep it to yourself. Its annoying. You have acsess to those words, and it isnt treated as weird, so why is it for me?

4. Don't infantilize us. We aren't perpetually children. We are our age. Treat us as if we are a speaking person of our age.

This. This is facts.

if the autism/tbh creature makes the "YIPPEE!!" noise then maybe the adhd/btw creature makes that one "yayyy!!!" sound effect

the transition from SABM to TBAJD was so ouch

QUICK! PEOPLE WHO LIKE MUSICALS ABOUT 6 DEAD PEOPLE IN COMPETITION!

i love userboxes this one is so me

[id: a light brown userbox with a sot brown border and soft brown text that reads “this user is a sleepy eepy kitty” on the left is an image of a sleeping kitty. /end id]

im reblogging bc ppl who say that is so stupid, like no i don't like being acutely aware of every noise and texture around me

very fascinated by people who think autism is some hip-happenin’ bandwagon thing to have suddenly when it didn’t ever make me cool in the slightest? it just made me able to hear lightbulbs and have panic attacks over trying to call people on the phone

i dont like the other term bc its like I can like get rid of it

Please specify why If you're comfortable doing so and reblog the poll so more people can vote!!

why is this so true sobbing

Across the top of the photo are the words: "*trying to explain my symptoms to the doctor*".

Beneath these words are the photo of half the body of a well, drawn horse and the other half of the horse the drawn crudely. Written on the well drawn horse side is the words, "what I was thinking." Written on the crudely drawn horse side are the words, "how I said it. "

what the fart do i post, idk what to post and huhsdafhkhfdksh I don't think everyone wants to hear medical stories/lh
