Just a reminder that people who still live with their parents as adults deserve respect and for you to stop being ableist. There are multiple reasons someone could still live with their parents! From invisible to visible disabilities, finance issues, and more!

Stop using the “well they’re gonna turn into a creep living in their parents basement” punchline! It’s disgusting. STOP. BEING. ABLEIST. STOP. FORGETTING. THE. POOR.

"low support needs disabled people are often not believed to have a disability at all and therefore struggle to get accommodations."

"high support needs disabled people's accommodations are often seen as 'too much' and therefore are not met."

"neurodivergent people's needs are often dismissed because nothing is physically wrong with them."

"physically disabled people people often cannot physically access buildings and people refuse to do anything about it."

"invisibly disabled people are seen as lazy by society."

"visibly disabled people are ostracized from society."

IT'S ALMOST LIKE THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS A SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE DISABILITY

The autistic urge to rub my face against every soft thing that I see

Image description: tumblr post from user louintotheocean- The neurodivergent experience is talking about your brain as if it's a separate entity from yourself. End ID.

It really is. Also go follow louintotheocean I stole this post from Insta but it belongs to them not me.

Neurotypicals:

“7 + 5 = 12 and it that is a fact.”

Meanwhile…

Me, a neurodivergent:

“ 7 is a hungry bitch so it eats 3 from 5 making it 10 then it’s 10 + 2 = 12.”

I bought a pop-it today (4 actually)!!!!! I love it so much !!!!!!! Autism wins today /pos

shout out to john mulaney for giving me a wide arrange of vocal stims to use at any and every moment

You think you’re safe but it’s then all “just one more episode!” until you’re five seasons and multiple fanfics into another supernatural relapse.

Hey! Sorry to get serious real quick, but I’ve been doing research and believe I may be neurodivergent. Possibly ADHD or Autism, does anyone have any advice? I’m not trying to self diagnose or anything. Anyway, back to your regular scheduled programming.

finding out books you read at a comparatively young age are considered “YA” or “teen” is incredibly strange. i read full novels by the age of 7, and i had no idea that was in any way different from what other kids my age were doing. maybe i was lonely as a kid, but reading novels cover to cover on my own with minimal assistance was very normal, and even expected from my family. i read The Hobbit at age 8, all by myself, and i know several children aged 7 who can’t even read Dr Seuss with confidence. i read The Secret Garden, Oliver Twist, several full series of books… and i never though it strange that i’d read them before the age of 10. and now i’m looking at my cousins and other kids around me wondering if literacy rates have fallen that drastically or if i was a complete anomaly.

Neurodivergencies are not disabilities, unless you are mentally disabled ala neurodevelopment, you are not mentally disabled 😮‍💨

Ok so there's a lot to unpack here.

I don't even know what post this is referring to

Most neurodivergences ARE disabilities. Schizospectrum disorders are disabilities. Dissociative disorders are disabilities. Disorders like dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalcula are disabilities. All of these conditions make you neurodivergent. Very few, if any, are neurodevelopmental. Autism is not the only way to be a disabled ND.

The only way I can maybe see any validity to this is the fact that not all neurodivergent people identify as disabled. If you don't want to identify as disabled, that's perfectly fine. But you don't get to deprive neurodivergents who are disabled by their conditions of community.

Congratulations. You have submerged yourself in online communities so niche that you've convinced yourself PTSD is not a disability.

Genuinely I don't know what happened to you. Everything about this ask is so ludicrously incorrect I'm inclined to believe you're trolling me. I'm choosing to give you the benefit of the doubt and answer this as if you genuinely hold these beliefs.

I swear to God if you came from the post I think you came from I'm gonna scream. I've had that post muted for MONTHS now.

If you're referring to me specifically, as in saying that I myself am not disabled, I got bad news for ya buddy I'm disabled no matter how you slice it. I am neurodevelopmentally disabled. Diagnosed with autism at age six. And I'm physically disabled. Do better.

Anon hate is soooooo 2012. Get off anon and duke it out with me in the notes. You know you can reply from a throwaway blog, right? Right?

Mutuals, rip them to shreds.

Me when unmask around my ND friends but then feel intense shame for having unmasked when I’m alone

Someone explain to my teacher that "autistic" and "traumatised" aren't bad words because i'd rather get called a slur than "double special" again

Re-watching heartstopper, Episode 6 season 1 at 14:12 I HAVE NEVER FELT MORE SEEN WHEN CHARLIE STAPS FLAPPING HIS HANDS IN EXCITEMENT YESS

Me: “ahh, finally. Peace and quiet.”

That random fuzzy ringing noise™️: “I think the fuck not, bitch.”

one of the worst things about being autistic is when you say or do something and everyone looks at you like you’re fucking stupid
