flappy-human:
if you are neurotypical and you feel like you’re on our side then do not ever say a developmentally disabled person “has the mind of an x-year-old.” a 37 year old disabled man has the mind of a 37 year old man. It is his mind; it belongs to him. Do not contribute to the infantilization of disabled ppl that is used to justify our abuse.

Anonymous asked: If anyone else is trying to get back into tooth brushing habits for the new year, running the bristles under hot water for several seconds can make even a stiff tooth brush wonderfully soft and much more comfortable to use.

Autistic feel: subconsciously adopting people’s accents when talking sometimes and then, when people point this out (or mock u about it lol), you feel ashamed cause you may have possibly come off as mocking the person you were talking to. rip in peace

me:
I am Autistic with gravitational insecurity and because of that my steps have to be heavier than others to compensate and avoid feelings of panic. Have you noticed how I had meltdowns when expected to learn how to ride a bike or use rollerskates? This is a symptom of my developmental disability and you are being very rude about it. Kindly shove a pineapple up your asshole.

don’t you dare become a parent and then say “i didn’t sign up for this” when your kid is lesbian, gay, bi, trans, disabled, anything you erroneously consider “abnormal” by becoming a parent you sign up for everything you sign up to accept your child no matter who they are it’s not something you can back out of
