i'm just good at clicking reblog

please, please create fat characters who are good.

who are strong, who are fast, who are desirable, who are hard workers, who aren't obsessed with food, who aren't stupid, who aren't villains, who get a happy ending.

create fat characters who are as amazing as the fat people you know and love in real life. representation in media does matter.

Boycott launch date of Switch 2 and buy it the next day, June 6.

This has worked before:

When the 3DS released, it was over priced too. No one bought it so then they lowered the price!

It has happened before, it can happen again.

If you can wait even 1 day at least, or 1 week at best, it will make a difference.

Spread the news. In solidarity of those who can't buy Switch 2, those who can buy it should at least boycott the launch date. I garantee you it WILL make a difference.

Remember the consumer is always right.

ppl in the notes going crazy over the fact that that's a hare and not technically a rabbit. like. I'm not expecting you to read my entire post history but I've been calling kangaroos bunnies. I've been calling cats bunnies. I've been calling dragons bunnies. for like, years at this point. what is a bunny? that's the question...

you know when i say we have to accept autistic people who have symptoms of autism that cause things like body fluid smearing, inconsistent or no personal hygiene, lack of volume control, etc. I'm not talking about some fringe cases of autistic people with "extreme" symptoms. these things are common. they're common amongst medium and high support needs autistics, but also amongst low support needs autistics. some of your peers at the local autistic peer support society are struggling with incontinence. it's just that they can control their liquid intake and use pads to manage symptoms. some of them are smearing fecal matter but they just clean up after themselves. the divide between low support needs and others isn't that low support needs autistics are actually more palatable, have fewer undesirable symptoms, or are in any way better than the rest of the autistic population. even if some people like to act that way. it just refers to the level of support they need. like being able to manage your own incontinence for example doesn't make you have it any less. we've gotta accept that various symptoms are part of autism. they're actually quite common. there remains a lot of social stigma around these symptoms, but that doesn't make them rare or not worth talking about. things like skin picking or hitting your head are behaviours that naturally arise from having autism, and we've got to accept that

happy autism acceptance month. this month, regardless if you're abled or disabled, allistic or autistic, try to consider if you really do accept people with autism. all aspects of autism. people who:

  • without volume control
  • talk to themselves or make sounds (seemingly) at random
  • have huge screaming meltdowns
  • stim any way, including smearing body fluids
  • only talk about one subject and will never "move on"
  • stare inappropriately
  • struggle with personal hygiene
  • are unemployed
  • who left education early ("dropped out")
  • has a carer and will always need one
  • don't use mouth words to communicate
  • have comorbid intellectual disability and don't want to separate that from their autism

autism acceptance month can't truly be about acceptance if we don't broaden our understanding of autism and confront our internal biases. these things listen above are normal parts of autism. sometimes very common. there's stigma around them, but that's stigma we can actively fight.
