When neurotypicals and level 1 autistics say they love autism, what they really mean is that they love the kind that doesn't annoy you. They love the autistics who are quirky and have special talents, who can work independently and read social interactions well enough to fit in.

And then there are the level 2 autistics. They think its okay to bully us and yell when our autistic traits are more debilitating than theirs. When we can't shut up. When we meltdown.

And the level 3 autistics? "Oh, we just forget about them. We don't want to even acknowledge their existence. It's not like they can even think or hear us. We can talk about them like theyre an animal, right in front of their face, because they don't understand us anyway, right?"

When ableist neurotypicals and privileged level 1 autistics say they love autism, they mean they love it until you're an inconvenience.

If you...

Struggle with completing work

Wont shut up about your special interest

Cant regulate your emotions

Have loud stims

Cant mask

Have verbal shutdowns where you can't communicate at all, with or without AAC

Have meltdowns

Cry too much

Say something rude on accident

...you are seen as annoying, embarrassing, an asshole, an inconvenience, and someone to avoid.

If you...

Are semiverbal or nonverbal

Have "embarrassing" stims

Have frequent severe meltdowns

Can't work or live by yourself

Can't make friends

Have weird behaviors

...You're seen as dangerous, less than human, animalistic, and useless.

You are not. You have more meaning than they will ever believe. Your feelings, opinions, and thoughts matter.

So, apparently Smellerbee was a trans icon this whole time, and I just never noticed.

And I love how Iroh immediately realises his mistake and corrects himself

And how Longshot is non-verbal, yet Smellerbee understands him perfectly! This is clearly a conversation they've had a thousand times, which indicates an unreal amount of trust between these two

I would actually die for them

disney needs to give us an episode of the new baymax series where he helps a nonverbal autistic child whose communication tablet broke.

like imagine him putting the communication options on his tummy.

and recognizing the child’s sensory overload and taking them somewhere quiet.

i need it

Non-verbal & non-speaking characters in Audio Dramas

A PowerPoint was created after receiving questions as to how we could have characters that don't speak in our show. For an audio version, check our TikTok.

Suggestions for other ways to give non-speaking characters space in shows are welcome! This presentation was made by someone who is mostly non-verbal and previously fully non-speaking.

i see posts about people saying you shouldn't say "going nonverbal" or use the term nonverbal if you arent always nonverbal and it makes me feel like yall forgot about variable disabilities

ambulatory wheelchair users exist

chronic pain doesn't always make people immobile every single day (depending on the person)

so why cant being nonverbal also be a spectrum, much like so much of autism is?

Knuckles goes non verbal sometimes.

He usually communicates with body movement or noises like growls, whines, stomps of his foot, nudging, bonking, etc. It doesn’t bother Team Sonic at all. They’re planning to teach him sign language, since both Sonic and Tails themselves go non verbal and communicate this way with one another, but it’s gonna be a big difficult with Knux’s big gloves…

Eh, they’ll figure something out

Can someone please explain the different terms for nonverbal. Like I knew there are two separate terms for being nonverbal and going into a nonverbal state. I think non speaking is one of the terms but I don’t want to use it wrongly. I saw a post a couple of month back explaining all of this but I can’t find it. I don’t want to offend anyone I’m just trying to understand as a fully verbal autistic myself.
