Bath toys are a severely underrated sensory experience.

So I don't have my septum pierced (yet) but this is a list of things I do when wearing my faux nose rings and I'd thought I'd share.🥰
Stick my tongue out to play with it
Pull on it gently while in deep thought
Enjoy the clinking noise it makes when it hits the tops of soda/tea cans
Wiggle my nose around just to feel it swing
Cross my eyes to look at my nose even though I know I won't be able to see it
(Beaded nose rings) Wiggle my nose to hear the clinking noise they make
(Beaded nose rings) Giggle when I sneeze and the beads jingle or hit the end of my nose
Overall, my nose rings are a positive sensory experience that keep me grounded and from being overly anxious all the time.🥰

Children do not need to grow into being people, they’re already people and of course they have things to learn but they deserve to be treated with autonomy and respect. Especially queer and disabled children, we deserve better.

things i’m learning that i’m allowed to do 🩷
I can prefer media that people might think is immature for my age
the things i like don’t have to make sense to anyone but me and they don’t even have to make sense to me either
i can decorate and personalize everything i own to be the most me
i can buy pink everything and anything
my room, my taste in music, and my clothes don’t have to always match
i can prefer all my clothes are the same textures/fabrics with similar colors/prints/patterns
my outfits can be as silly and childish and immature as i want them to be
i can’t always control what i like and why, sometimes things just feel right
i can carry a stuffed animal with me wherever i want because it helps my anxiety and makes me feel safer
i don’t have to explain why something makes me happy or sad or why i like something
i can communicate in a way that tires me the least
i can use my mobility aid, i can even decorate it and put stickers on it
I can put pins on everything, i don’t just have to pick one or two
i can wear a soft hooded bathrobe instead of my scratchy winter coat and it’s just as warm and feels like i’m wrapped in a blanket
my comfort items don’t need to make sense to anyone
i can wear wigs (i felt really weird about doing anything other than my natural hair, like i was a “bad” black person because i wanted long wavy pink hair at times)
i don’t have to dress simply but i can still be comfy
the things i collect don’t have to be sophisticated
i can like music that kinda sounds like beeps and boops
i can also like music in different languages
i can listen to lullabies to sleep because i fall asleep way easier when i do
i can sleep with stuffed animals too
the books i read don’t have to be sophisticated or classic, i can prefer reading about fairies and magic and pretty things, i can even have books that are mostly pictures
i don’t have to wear jeans (ever)
i don’t have to feel bad for being different and not being able to do the same things as other people my age
it’s okay to not want my food to touch and it’s okay to have lots of different things like that
i’m not bad for needing a little extra care and sensitivity
i’m not bad for being unable to work
being autistic does make me different but i’m still me and i can love me and other people can love me too
i’m not bad

If you are ever struggling with how do I do self care? Or what do I enjoy doing? Try thinking about what made you happy as a child. What were your favorite tpys or activities? I rediscovered playing with water and water toys and it's actually helped me/convinced me to take more baths! I also remember loving to play with marbles and bouncy balls. Now i have a musical marble drop and a bin full of balls in my sensory room!

hang on. hang on. okay. IS THIS A SAFE SPACE. is it a god damn safe space to say on my blog [prev post] DITTO............ U_U
that IS in fact. a transcendently good piece of writing actually grappling with the politics and ideological of a war. evocating visuals and emotions that are so fucking resonant and completely true the very alien prespectives they come from.
it is quite literally a claustrophobic story though the nature of claustrophobia filtered through beings who dont worry about suffication or starvation as matter air and food but a matter of geological eras and what i can only assume some atomic grade power sources.
there is poetry. and there are notes about the intranslatablity of poetry that literally cannot be experienced by a human brain.
HUH? yeah. and the dorsal port fucking.

There are many downsides to being autistic (see: The Problems) but one decided upside is that every single one of those problems can be fixed temporarily with a bowl of cornflakes

Fire works and Sensory issues
So its November which means Fireworks galore and that means loud sound every night until Bonfire night, and I have sensory issues and they always muck my head up because I don't like loud sounds and Fire works are loud. My sister literally had to tell my Brother why I don't like fireworks he thinks I'm scared of them. I just don't like them because if my sensory issues.

Imagine your F/O helping to care for minor ailments with you.
Applying plasters(band-aids) to scrapes, making up compresses for bumps or bruises, kissing you to distract you before using antibacterial wipes so you don't notice the pain as much.
And then, of course, the obligatory 'kiss it better' once it's all been dealt with!

something about randy seems so huggable. like i just want to embrace him and cling onto his hoodie and never let go and crawl into his jacket while he's still wearing it and absolutely forget every pre-existing notion of personal space and smell/feel the denim his pants and jacket are made of

I don’t think I’m psychic, but there’s environmental cues that I’m acutely aware of and have been around long enough that I get tuned to routines and patterns of places people and things. When I have a dream of someone appearing and they show up shortly after, it’s because whether I’m thinking of it or not, some part of me knows it’s part of their routine. They hadn’t been heard from in months and they showed up within a week of my dream. When someone dies and I have a dream about them before I’m cognizant of their passing, its pattern recognition. No one has come calling for them and their departure was not announced. I knew someone was recently hospitalized. I had forgotten about them, but something I’m not consciously aware of didn’t. it’s not spirits. Probably.
