Autistic Amy Pond

Right. I feel incredibly awkward doing this, but Tumblr - I need writing advice.

Basically, I’m writing a story, and one of my characters is blind in one eye. I recognise that life with partial blindness is different to fully sighted life. However, I’m fully sighted, and I don’t want to accidentally make mistakes or offend anybody. So... I have some questions. If anybody with knowledge about any of this can answer anything, or throw in extra info, that would be great!

First off, a little background about my character. He was born fully sighted, but got into a fight at 16, and got stabbed in his left eye. He survived the attack, but even with heavy surgery, he wound up blind in his left eye, whilst his right eye can see perfectly well. He’s now 19 years old, and has a job as a hacker/computer specialist/hacktivist. Now, for the questions!

1: Is there any way that being partially blind heavily affects day-to-day life? I know that depth perception would be heavily impaired or completely gone, because of biology, but I have a feeling that there’s more to it, and it’s different from full blindness/impaired eyesight in both eyes. So, I’m just checking on this.

2: Would any adjustments have to be made to living spaces to accommodate him? (He currently lives on the road/out of his car, if that affects anything. On the same note, could he actually drive? Because of the depth perception.)

3: Are there any other effects that partial blindness has on one’s life that I might be overlooking? Like, emotional effects, mental wellbeing, etc etc.

4: Would it be an effective idea for me to buy an eyepatch and cover my left eye with it for one or two weeks, or is that incredibly offensive and not a good idea? I might edit or follow up on this post with more questions in the future if more arise. Please tell me if I’ve been offensive here, or made mistakes with phrasing, tags, anything! I don’t want to accidentally be rude! Thanks in advance for any advice people might be able to give. :)

HELP ME!!!!

I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP! March 30, 2019, I found a package on my doorstep with nothing written on it, meaning, there was no addresses or names to be found. Inside there was a notebook and a pencil. The notebook is completely filled. I think what was written in here was meant to be a whole ass book if I’m being honest. And that thought is really upsetting to me because somehow this ended up with me, and not the editor that it must have been going to. I feel terrible… after reading a few pages it is very obvious to me that someone poured a lot of time and effort into this and I have no way of figuring out who wrote it or who it was going to. I already threw out the box because it rained a lot the day before I saw it; the box was trashed and smelled like garbage. (Not about to bring that smell into my house…) Okay, this is the part where I need your help! Please reblog this, I don’t care who you are or how many followers you have, I need to know if they’re here and how this ended up with me. Also, If anyone knows a writer living in the Egg Harbor, New Jersey area who may have possibly sent their work to a publisher recently and/or owned a notebook resembling this one:

please contact me with any questions you have or information on who they are. I can’t do it without some help! SO PLEASE! HELP ME FIND THIS PERSON! I will be posting updates soon.

Hey people, so, this is kinda a last-ditch effort considering that I've got basically no people following me, but maybe some people will see it via the tags or something. Basically, I watched the documentary series "Don't F*ck With Cats" on Netflix earlier, and I just realised that, well, it was a lot heavier than I bargained for. I don't have any idea why I didn't just turn it off at the time. I've got slight anxiety/paranoia issues anyway, and this really isn't helping. My thoughts just keep drifting back to the documentary/the content of the documentary... Which is very dark. Animal abuse, serial killers... etc. Does anybody have any ideas on how to calm down and stop myself from freaking out over this/stop worrying about being murdered by a serial killer/stop my thoughts from drifting back to the documentary? Thanks so much to anybody that can help. :) PS: Please tell me if I missed any tags that would be suitable here/trigger warnings, or if my trigger warning tags aren't up to standard! (I heard that there are different conventions that change every so often, but I'm not up to date.)

Loki’s vows

SPN S8 Headcanon

In S8 whilst Castiel was going around helping people, don’t tell me that he didn’t hang around top suicide spots to stop people from ending it all.

Don’t tell me that he didn’t tell the trans and/or queer teen whose parents love God more than their own child that God is gone and never coming back.

Don’t tell me that he didn’t comfort the depressed teen who’s just been dumped by their boyfriend/girlfriend, that he didn’t tell them that there’s so much worth living for.

Don’t tell me that he didn’t teach the student with anxiety who continually worries about demons all the tricks to protect themselves against those sons of b*tches.

Don’t tell me that Castiel didn’t save hundreds of people from suicide, because he damn well did.

All that demon blood turning Sam into a warlock, though.

It bends the rules of the universe slightly, but WOO

I still really want a SPN/Shadowhunters crossover thing.

- “Cas, I thought you said there were no other Nephilim! You called them abominations!” - “I meant there were no other… um… unorganized Nephilim. These are… uh… different. And also a secret.”

- “What do you mean the Mark of Cain turned you into a demon?!” - “What do you meAN IT TURNED PEOPLE WHO ATTACKED YOU INTO SALT?!”

- “No, I will not put on your tight black gear or whatever. I don’t care if you think flannel shirts are impractical.”

- “Vampires and werewolves can’t just ignore their murdering instincts!” - “Not when you say close-minded, racist shit like that.”

- “Mundanes aren’t supposed to stay in the Institute.” - “WHAT did you just call us?!”

This is my cat, Brigitte.

24 hours after I brought her home, I got a mindblowing job offer.  Since I adopted her nine years ago, my life has become an amusement park.  She has brought me good luck ever since I took her into my home.

I’m telling you, there’s something about this animal.  Good fortune follows her everywhere.

I don’t want to be selfish.  I have everything I need and then some.  So, I’m sharing her with you.

Reblog Brigitte and you’ll receive fantastic news in the next 24 hours.

And when you do, please remember to help your local SPCA and support them in the difficult work they do for wonder animals like Brigitte.  Any donation helps your SPCA, even if it’s just five bucks.

Kitties like Brigitte are counting on you to give back when they bring you good luck.

Thanks, and congratulations on your good news!

You guys are so screwed now!
