Fuck you people who don't like Erin! Share this post if you love Erin! Fuck yourself if you don't love Erin! Or whatever

#of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion but like #how could you hate her? if you have reasons ill hear them but like i just don't see any reason anyone could hate her #she means so much to me #id never heard a character straight up say they were selectively mute before her #and like sure it's maybe not 100% accurate ('i chose not to' isnt right cause we cant really choose but i figured it was just what like #doctors told her cause unfortunately it's just like that sometimes)#but it's the only representation ive ever seen and i fucking love it #anyways ah sorry #the devil in me #erin keenan

explodes all over you

#YES YE SYE SYE SYE SY YE SY EYS Y ES #they r selectively mute (like me!!)and whisper to marie to communicate to others #aftre the infection i hc they got a scar and half of their hair was chopped.but everybody thinks tyat i think #hoh after the sanitization 2 #they use they/them. maybe other prnns ? havent thought about it too hard #i think they were trying to think of a name when they were recruited and so they just adopted the name three.and thats why they react -#-weirdly to neo agent 3 #also i think after the sanitization they always have their headphones playing calamari inktation Just In Case #i think their ‘bored’ expression is bc theyre autistic and just dont know how to show their emotions. like -#- when cuttlefish died they looked bored but was also sad. explainbthat atheists!!!!#i wholeheartedly believe they are older than agent 4 btw idc what the localization says there is NO chance captain is younger than four #ok i think im done torturing you for now. tysm for asking omgomgomg #thanks for the ask!

one silent, frosted morning

one choked winter morning

hands frosted till they hurt

i discovered silence is not always

some grand, romantic curse

my own voice is now a stranger

to the red tips of my ears

and as i sink beneath the snowfall

i count on a dead hand how many years

it's been two, to be exact

not too many, not too few

but now i watch my breath crystallise

and regret not what i spoke, but what i knew

it does irk me, how i didn't scream

before i last closed my lips

i am sure my silence was once a choice

but now i can't feel my fingertips.

#poetry #original poem #spilled ink #poem #poetic #poets on tumblr #walking to school in winter is aesthetic but also SUCKS #because u freeze ur hands off #and poetically lament the years you were selectively mute #or maybe that's just me

Tayston =‘]

#been meaning to draw smthing like this for a minute #i.e. tayston kiss where maybe simultaneous laughing / [smiling As Good As a laugh] is getting in the way of that kiss but not a problem rly #didn't really want to have to choose between taylor smiling harder / laughing aloud Or Not so i didn't choose between them #winston billions #tayston #corned beef #why Not include affectionate touches but you can believe the hands are also included to emphasize the [heads together Heart Shape] too #yes winston's as undressed as taylor yes i included his glasses b/c i felt like it. might have put them back on after awhile w/o them; might #have only Just removed a tee w/enough room in the collar to not dislodge his glasses as he did so; or i can't stop anyone from imagining #that just out of frame on his shoulder we could see like a spaghetti strap to a tank top. god bless #i also went ''am i gonna be more like subtle/muted or w/e & Not include little sparkles / hearts'' then 5 min later was like lol as though #you Know i'm gonna do it (include the little sparkles and/or hearts)#oh my god lmfao again also with the bi palette. definitely separate pink purple blue in there. all Except the yellow highlights...#like not that that happens accidentally lol like ofc i'm selecting colors to my tastes & who doesn't love blue/pink/purple like what a team #but only after the fact do i recall the bonus lol....Could've ended up say; Not using one of those three colors....but here we are #have been working on this for....nights #me at 5am last night like haha i'm Almost done but better save it for later #and in this final stretch i have definitely been at it since uhh. well it's now two a.m. and i started in on this pre sunset est #not that it was Constant work w/o frequent breaks lol but the lack of sustained focus is itself kind of that constant factor l o l #so it goes. just glad to post it early enough for some other taystonheads to get to see it Now. happy pride

AND IF I WROTE ABOUT GAY PIRATES INVOLVING THIS FELLA…

#i have like #ONE angsty scene that makes me want to write an entire novel around it #imagine the homie goes by crow right #(haha black bird yknow)#and they’re mute (maybe selectively idk yet)#only one person can understand them completely based on either their sign language or body language #and THEN…#something happens (idk what)#crow is INJURED #perhaps DEAD #and the best friend / lover #is kneeling beside them #both still in ‘uniform’#shaking them #‘crow…? talk to me’#‘*say something*’#as the bff is ugly crying #PLS #it hurts more in my head

i really wish there were more ‘stay silent’ dialogue options in dragon age inquisition

#mainly because i want to make an oc who is selectively mute ;n;#a shy little bean for the burly forest man #dumb ramblings #she's only going to feel comfortable talking to solas and maybe vivienne ;n;

realizing I really was mute back in middle school and those girls weren’t wrong

#numbers mumbles #BACK when I was in the 7th grade I was already a ball of anxiety #and I wouldn’t ever talk to people I didn’t know #and like. some girls from my pe class would sometimes try to engage in conversation with me. but like I was always just anxiously quiet #and eventually they just stopped trying bc one of them was like wait guys I think they’re mute so like they can’t talk back #and I thought the whole situation was soooo funny bc haha they don’t know I can talk. but like. I couldn’t. literally couldn’t talk to them #and I’m like. learning more about myself every damn day #bc I grew up with this and with the mentality of #I’m just shy and stupid that’s why I can’t talk #itS A SEVERE ANXIETY DISORDER JESUS FUCK.#and now I’m reflecting on being a scared anxious quiet little dude like him. maybe that wasn’t normal at all.#anyway selective mutism!!! I’m . i hate it so much!! it makes me feel so fucking stupid in every situation!!#I walk away crying from every attempt to speak up!! that’s not normal that’s very much not normal !!!!!!!!

How single am I? My eye doctor jokingly said 'oh, those are some good looking vessels' when looking at my retinal scan and I got flustered.

#dear lord help me #it was 'let me look at those peepers one last time' that killed me #he might think i am selectively mute #maybe this is why i'm single?#single life

Okay, it's. It's probably safe to say I'm autistic, lol

#rae rants #i took the autism test twice before and. both said 'yeah autism' but i was like. well it's just one test and maybe it's coincidence.#the r one. anyways. yesterday. i found a site that was like a megapost of autism tests and i took... i think 6 tests from established #like. medical journals and psychology sites. and they all were just like 'yeah you have autism' so.#i mean I'm not gonna get a diagnosis but when i was going thru the questions i was like. 'doesn't everyone do that? no one does that!'#when it was decidedly not the case. and then idr how but i got on quora for a related but different topic and got to some #question by someone who is highly suspecting being autistic but didn't understand one of the questions. and before ppl even got to their #explanations (which i always inherently understood) they'd be like 'sorry for the block of text for smth that could use a 2-3 word answer.#that's a symptom of autism.' and when i told my mom abt that she was like. yeah. thats you.#also. i think this is funny. 3/5 of my family has gone 'am i autistic?' and told that to each other.#and we went to watch my brother the other day do a presentation thing for the career he's going into. and we could recognize him (aside from #his unique clothing set-up-- he was rhe only one w a black coat and tan pants) we could identify him cuz he'd be a loner or he'd like.#waddle a little bit while walking. and i know i have a bit of a bob to my step and my mom waddles too (but thats a medical thing).#and after i finished the test i was like. oh yeah isnt 'strange gait' a symptom of autism.#and when i told my mom she was like 'yeah i think we're all autistic. but we're not getting diagnosed bc let's avoid bigotry.' and. yeah.#i mean. obvs its not just cuz i too a handful of online tests. ive been exhibiting symptoms my friend. like ones i should have seen and gone #'well duh' like im selectively mute. always have been. and when i read 'mostly autistic ppl are selectively mute' i was like.#'but im the specialest little exception in the whole wide world :3c'#as well as other related shit. ya know.#knowing my history tho i haven't been officially diagnosed with anything but it's all in my notes. like my medical chart.#so with my weird good-bad luck I could straight up be like 'i have exhibited signs of autism since early childhood' and they'd write #that word for word in my chart. which avoids the oppression of a diagnosis but also doesn't help me much besides that ya know?#if we're mutuals you might have seen me be like 'do i have autism? no i don't have autism but this post is so relatable.'#whilst exhibiting symptoms.#... is 'exhibiting symptoms' offensive to say? it's one of those phrases I've been stuck on lately cuz it's real short hand for #'i recognize this bc i am familiar with it due to my experiences with mental health' but idk if it's taken that way :\

#One day I will meet someone who doesn't make me want to tear out my voicebox when I accidentally infodump!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#I like finish my accidental little rant only to find out they aren't even looking at me #God it makes me want to spray blood from my eyes like a fucking thorny devil #When I was like seven I used to write like 'Silence' on my hand to remind myself to shut the fuck up and #stop making people hate me just by talking!!!!#I wish I could go back to being selectively mute bc I feel like going home and killing myself every time I talk for a little too long #Even when like I post art in a discord and someone posts over it or WORSE no one ever says anything after weeks #I just delete it bro fuck I would rather die than feel like people saw it and didn't care enough to say anything #WHY when there is a lull in conversation do I feel the fucking need to say some shit like 'hey guess what did you know that in star wars..'#Like a fucking toddler??????? What is wrong with me why do I ruin everything just by existing #I thought having a friend who is also autistic and understands being ignored and talked over would make things easier!!!#But no bc they also ignore me even if on accident and it hurts 100x more #I'm sure anyone reading this is like 'bro maybe you ARE the problem maybe you should just stop talking?' like YEAH!! CORRECT!!!!!!#I want to die sooo fucking bad how do I stop feeling shitty for more than ten seconds at a time #I am living for those tiny five second moments of feeling non shitty like when I see a red bird in a tree but bro. I cannot live like this.

"haptic nerve blocking"

I always thought the squip would have to block more than just Jeremy's vision to actually remove something from his perception. And the problem with blocking sensory input at the level of the sensory nerves (rather than inside the brain where the input is processed) is that... now there's just a lack of input in that area?

When you have a blind spot in your eye, your brain's actually pretty good at filling in the hole with surroundings so you don't notice. I'm not sure if the same is true of tactile nerves --- but I thought maybe the squip would just selectively mute those nerves whenever Michael touches him. So here's a comic where Jeremy notices that numbness and puts 2 and 2 together :P

Also, please stare at this panel for at least three hours for me it's my favorite one and the first one I drew. thank you djsklfjdsf

the book club im hosting has a book full of my aesthetic: witches, ice vs fire, enemies to lovers

AND THE LEAD HEROINE ONLY SPEAKS VIA SIGN LANGUAGE

#as a selective mute who never was able to learn and still struggles trying to tesch myself via yt mostly #bc w dyslexia its harder to figure out movements #blESS #out.#anywyas LITERALLG how donna speaks when not forcing hallucinations or speaking thru angie #remember in my caze at least i heavily reference the game saying she never spoke #as her one line is a hallucination #she speaks THROUGH angie but angienis also a semi separate personality bc she also mentally connected to claudia #i dont believe donna would know sign tho and i do have to research if romanian sign differs greatly #but she communicated other ways so in human aus she DOES sign #but if angie isnt present she cannot speak unless shes forcing hallucinations #im a selective mute and i believe in some ways donna could be too #bc it seems like she might have spoken somewhat prior to the trauma #but;;; heres the thing #many autistics arent just selective mutes. many of us are always mute.#can we learn to speak? maybe #case by case basis #and i think donna leans more into that
