A mural I painted on a door recently. *A silhouette of a woman’s head and neck with phrases that have been said to me by men (you should smile more, be more girly, you’re just a girl, not all men, ect. ) with rainbow colors blooming out of the back of her head.*
homophobes are not allowed to use computers because the inventor of the computer was gay
reblog this if your blog is a safe space on april fools and won’t have any jumpers, screamers, or anything scary or anxiety inducing
things you shouldn't say to (or about) an autistic person:
you don't know any better
stop pretending like you don't know what I'm saying
how don't you understand? it's so simple
r slur. dont say it period.
stop being so dramatic, it's not that big a deal
stop using your autism as an excuse
*explaining things in a condescending tone like we're children*
smol bean, so precious and innocent
well it's not like they can understand anyway
*talking about us like we're not there*
you're faking for attention
but you're not that autistic
but you're really good at talking!
everyone's a little autistic
stop doing those weird motions! you're drawing attention!
you're a buzzkill
it's so hard to talk to you
oh so you're like a robot! a machine!
nevermind. (you basically admit that we're not worth the extra few seconds it would take to include us.)
*laughing or shrugging us off if we say we don't understand*
don't take things so seriously (especially when we talk about ableism. never say this.)
you're reading too much into it
wow so you're like not even human
oh so like sheldon cooper?
I know a lot about autism. I've watched rain man
but you're not screaming or flapping your hands?
but then how are you talking
oh so you must be really good at math
so are you like really good at chess?
I bet you're really good at playing a lot of instruments
ohmygosh, the good doctor is my favorite show! it's sooo good
sometimes when I'm in a bad mood and I'm tired, I can't tell what people's faces mean, I'm probably a little autistic too haha
you're just a little awkward/it's just social anxiety
you're exaggerating
so can you tell what this face means? *makes some random constipated expression*
you're just quirky!
don't be so sensitive
they're not all the way there...
I thought you'd be ranting or info-dumping about your special interest 24/7
I met an autistic person before but you guys are nothing alike
but you're not a boy?
but you're not white?
I read somewhere on [insert obscure, non-factual blogging website] that you could cure it by lighting incense. (stop trying to shove cures at us. they don't work, and we don't want one anyway.)
that's so tragic
your parents are so strong!
but then how are you making eye contact with me?
so you don't feel any empathy?
are you like a psychopath?
autism moms are superheroes
you're emotionless
so you must be really nerdy and into sci-fi huh
I bet you'll cure cancer! (unless they have explicitly stated their interest in medical research or stem, don't assume that that's where their interest lies)
why are you so anti-social?
have you even tried to make friends?
it's not that loud, I'm not gonna turn it down
don't rely on aids! you'll get there through hard work and determination. aids will only slow you down in the long run
you're insane
you're no fun. you're like a cranky old person
this show has really good autism rep!
what do you mean it's not good representation? I think you're being too harsh and judgmental
but you're actually really nice? I thought autistic people had no filter
no you're not, I would know
that must be so hard for your family
so are you low- or high-functioning?
do you read really fast like reid from criminal minds?
I wish I was autistic
you're really akward
you're bad at conversations and social cues. (thanks, I hadn't noticed.)
no, don't call yourself "autistic"! say "person with autism", because you are more than your disability ❤
but you don't look autistic
autistic people, feel free to add more :)
allistic people are encouraged to reblog, but don't clown
An amazing sunset💛🌄
Found this beautiful tree the other day ❤️🌸🌺
A lovely rose garden💖🌹
me: I like reading because it's relaxing
me: *screams at book*
me: *throws book against the wall*
me: *cries over characters for days on end*
me: *curses the author's name*
me: *shouts to leave her alone*
me: *despairs at the end of the book*
me: Yeah, it's so relaxing
