A bastard, no bones about it.
i was so taken aback today while looking at my co-worker, who is probably like 30, because i had the sudden feeling that we were both incredibly young. and then when i was talking to my boss, it was like i could see what he would’ve been like in his school days, like the youth was all over his face. it reminded me of my friend telling me she still asks her grandma to plait her hair for her every night. the weird thing about getting older is that nobody ever seems as grown up as they used to
“The focus on cis white male presentations of autism creates a massive diagnosis barrier for marginalised people. Our actions are viewed differently depending on our race / gender etc. We need better representation in media and we need academics to understand and embed cultural nuance, not seek to further restrict diagnosis.” (@girl_unleeshed on Twitter)
Here’s the second comic I worked on for Autism Acceptance month! This comic is a collaboration with Leesha (@girl_unleeshed). Please check out her Twitter to read more of her awesome and thoughtful writing!
new logan angst animatic! not branded as such because its more subjective than my other ones (let me appeal to you, tmg mutuals) but it is intrulogical themed

god seeing people afraid to id as ace/aro because "what if it is just a phase? what if it is just hormones? what if it is just mental illness? what if I do find "the right person?"" makes me so righteously angry because I promise you, I promise no one in the community is going to revoke your aspec card on account of hypotheticals. if someone told you that then the stupid motherfucker lied to you. you do not look at water and go "well I'm not sure if I should drink this, because if the temperature drops below zero, it'll turn to ice." relax. let yourself just be. drink the water if you're thirsty. because it's water right now. doesn't matter if it'll be ice by tomorrow, or mist by next tuesday. it's water and you can drink it if you want to.
"OH, YOU WON'T LIKE WHAT COMES NEXT..."
i wish tumblr would figure its shit out
