Quick Necessary Update On My Profile Picture:
Quick necessary update on my profile picture:
This picture is from the "knuckles sings" video from the YouTuber Gregzilla, which is where the meme originated from. I don't want to support the Ugandan Knuckles meme because from what I can tell it's racist -- the accent is bad enough, but I've also read that the clicking noises are actually making fun of click-based languages from Africa. I'm white and not an expert, but it seems off to me and I would much rather err on the side of being careful than let my picture sit and possibly hurt people.
However, I think the skin itself is fucking hilarious so if you, like me, want an offense-free way to enjoy this meme go watch the original video that's linked first. Stay safe and be good people everyone!
(p.s. If I find out that the image itself is too connected to racism then I'll take it down. It's just not worth it to hurt people guys.)

I don't get why neurotypical people get so bent out of shape when autistic people want to talk about their special interests. I have to pretend to be interested in neurotypical stuff all day long, so why won't you even pretend to listen when I want to talk about sepsis or the Radium Girls?
Ok so this post is extremely long and I put it all together for my blogs Feeling sad page but as I don’t have a huge amount of followers I realize so many people are not seeing this information so I’m posting it here too!
alternatives without harming yourself:
holding/squeezing ice.
splashing your face with water.
getting a rubber band and snapping it against your skin (this could hurt, though it’s better than other ways that people usually choose to self-harm).
take a hot shower or bath.
eat something sour. it will take your mind of the urge. (lemon, sour lollies)
massage where you want to self-harm.
get a red pen or red paint and draw/paint over where you usually self-harm.
remind yourself as to why you shouldn’t do it. (scars, harms organs, leave memories etc…)
describe what you are feeling. (is the urge/pain in your chest, fists, legs, arms, head).
killing yourself will not help. it is not a solution.
you have your whole life ahead of you. you have so many more years that you can accomplish things in. for example;
having a family.
getting married.
to watch the sun rise.
to watch the sun set.
to save someone else’s life.
finish school.
get your dream job.
to laugh.
to smile.
to go camping.
travel to new places.
to wake up every morning to the person you love.
friends.
family.
to keep that promise you made.
to accomplish a goal.
to meet your idol.
to listen to new music.
theme parks.
video games.
chocolate.
to be able to look back and say “i made it”.
what you’re going through is temporary.
in case you need to hear this:
you are loved.
you are wanted.
you are needed.
you are beautiful.
you are handsome.
you are important.
you are not alone.
you are okay.
you are strong.
you are worth it.
you are smart.
you are not a failure.
you are useful.
you are going to be okay.

me thinkin abt how perry the platypus is Often referred to as an egg laying mammal, even in his theme song:
Lets play a game called Protect the Pidge!
Watching Voltron Legendary Defender I began to notice something that the entire team has in common: they all without question protect Pidge. The team will go out of their way to make sure Pidge is safe, and anyone who attacks Pidge is immediately dealt with.
Pidge draws the attention of the commander?
Turn the commander’s attention onto you.
Falling down a slide of death? Put Pidge on your shoulders out of reach.
Pidge is almost never standing by themself. Someone is always near them, and normally? It’s Shiro and Hunk, the two biggest guys on the team.
You will almost never see Pidge on the edge of the group, Pidge is never exposed.
Not even the sloth thing touches the Pidge.
Everyone else is complaining? We can keep going. Pidge has a breakdown? REST TIME.
It was all verbal until the Princess threw food goop at Pidge?
GAME ON, ALLURA. Immediate retaliation from Keith.
There’s a thing falling at you, no way is Shiro going to let his Pidge get squished.
Nothing harms the Pidge.
Alien has Pidge held in painful grip, rest of the team can’t do anything?
LANCE WAKES UP FROM A F**KING COMA TO SHOOT THE ALIEN!
In short? Pidge is precious and must be protected at all costs. You touch Pidge? The rest of the team will make you regret it.
Clint: So note to self, then. For the next life: Screw everybody. Oh who am I fooling? Take my hand! Take it!
Ninja: Never.
Clint: I don’t want a next life. I just want a nap.
