Since it's Autism Awareness Month, here's
Why the puzzle piece is offensive to the Autistic Community
[Large text: Why the puzzle piece is offensive to the Autistic Community]
Unfortunately, the most commonly used symbols to represent autism are all puzzle related, like the ones bellow.
These symbols and similar ones are typically used by Autism Organizations that are run by allistic people rather than autistic, Autism Speaks being the best-known example across the internet, but not the only one.
I'm not going to go deep into how bad Autism Speaks is, but just to leave you with the tip of the iceberg, know they used to put out ads that demonized autistic people (and even one in which one of the organization's leaders spoke about wanting to drive herself and her autistic daughter off a bridge).
Autism Speaks, and many others, attempt to "teach" people about autism, without hearing what actually autistic people have to say, and that's their biggest (but not at all only) problem.
Now, stay with me as we dive into history...
The puzzle piece was first used as a symbol for autism in 1963, by UK's National Autism Society, later on being adopted by Autism Speaks, which made it more popular.
Back then, autism awareness campaigns were viewed as being similar to, for example, cancer awareness ones, because autism was seen as an illness, a disease (which it is not).
As I've made clear before, the puzzle piece is heavily associated with organizations that spread misinformation about autism, making it, of course, already a bad symbol to represent us, but there's something I personally feel bothers us a lot more, and that is the symbolism of the puzzle piece.
The puzzle piece represents an idea of "mystery" and — you guessed it — being "puzzled".
And us, autists, don't really appreciate being called confusing.
Not only that, these words were often used to describe autism offensively in the past (and still are). And, on top of that, most times, when you find a puzzle supposed to represent autism, it is incomplete.
Isn't the message clear enough?
We're people, not puzzles that have to be worked out. We're not incomplete and we're not "puzzled".
So
Which symbols can you use for autism awareness?
[Large text: Which symbols can you use for autism awareness?]
The infinity rainbow symbol is common for all neurodivergent people, while the golden infinity is specific for ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder, in case you didn't know the acronym).
The infinity symbol represents the complexity and vastness of neurodivergence and autism.
Autism is less about "severity" and more about different struggles in different topics and areas (though not a lot of people seem to understand that, unfortunately). After all, autism is a spectrum, not a scale.
And if you're interested in why golden is the color of choice for us, that'd be because the periodic symbol for gold is Au, which I think is very clever, haha.
Some people also like to use red or plain yellow, I don't know a lot about that, but I'd recommend you research it.
And since we're on the topic of color, just a warning: in the Autistic Community we kind of avoid using blue to represent us, especially because it is heavily associated with Autism Speaks' "Light It Up Blue" movement.
Blue is seen as a representation of feelings like sadness, as well as being commonly associated with boys (this is important because women and other AFAB are often misdiagnosed and underdiagnosed because many people still think autism is only found in boys, and because many traits are viewed as "normal behavior" in AFAB people).
This isn't to say you can't use blue in the title of your PowerPoint presentation about ASD, it's just a thing we try to avoid.
Well, that should be all.
I decided to make this post because I've seen many people post about which symbols to use for Autism Awareness Month, but no one explaining why.
Thought this could help some poor lost soul understand it, lol
Happy Autism Awareness Month, my beloved Yippies, and a thank you to everyone who stopped to read <3 (heart).
Now I'm gonna go clean my search history and my gallery, just reading "Autism Speaks" gives me the ick.

Edward Nygma Gifs + Songs That Fit Them
Random gifs of Edward Nygma and songs I think match the energy because I've been obsessed with matching gifs of him with songs. So, I don't know if any of you will care about this, but here is some filler content while I work on a big upload. I also highly recommend you listen to these songs. I know this sound like I'm bragging and maybe I am, but I believe I have an amazing taste in music. I listen to everything except country (ew). I didn't get the 'good at math' autism but I definitely got the 'talent for matching music with characters/scenarios/situations' type of autism because i have A BILLION playlists and I love making playlists for specific characters and writing scenarios. If you decide to listen to these songs, please let me know if you liked them in the comments :) I wanna see if you think they match the gifs. I've noticed that Edward's 'energy' really reminds me of Hyperpop music/Heavy metal/and various Indie songs/artists.
Read Below Cut
Brian is the Most Beautiful - Memo Boy (hes so prettyyy)
NARCISSISIC PERSONALITY DISORDER - Odetari (this song fits perfectly. listen to the lyrics)
Custer - Slipknot (bro enjoyed it too much...)
See You Again (feat. Kali Uchis) - Tyler the Creator (sweet :3)
FUNKED UP - xxanteria, isq (theater kid, not joking though this song reminds me of this scene)
The Most Wanted Person In The United States - 100 gecs (bro's wanted in every state.)
warm nights - Xori (reminds me of his sensitive and vulnerable side)
Who is She? - I Monster (ominous, mysterious, beautiful, and unsettling.)
Kerosene - Slowed - fam0uz (theater kid era mixed with psychopathic behavior)
Punk Tactics - Joey Valence & Brae (picked this song cuz its goofy but also threatening and reminds me of edward)
GOOD LOYAL THOTS - Odetari (bro would so listen to this type of music)
Ride - Sir-Mix-A-Lot ( THIS IS NOT CUZ IT'S AN EDIT SONG! He seems like he literally listens to sir-mix-a-lot like fr. hes nodding to the beat of the song and thinking 'i like butts too! :D')
Aleph - Gesaffelstein (this song always gives me chills and I feel like it matches Ed's energy well. this gif below is perfect for it.)
Megalomaniac - KMFDM (I've said it before and will keep saying it. This song is my favorite song to pair with him. It reminds me of him so well. The lyrics, the beat, the drums, EVERYTHING. Imagine this song playing while he's in a fight scene, like, hello?)
Freak Show - Punkinloveee, H3artcrush (another song that reminds me of him a lot.)
The Lobotomy - Maebi (a creepy ass fkin song that reminds me of his whole transition from edward to riddler)
Daydream In Blue - I Monster (I love this song. It reminds me of how Edward still is a romantic throughout the whole show. Yeah, he gets crazy, but he still has love in his heart.)
HYPNOTIC DATA - ODECORE, Odetari (ik he's a goofy boy but he also has a slight ego. this song reminds me of that. he KNOWS he can pull and it feeds his ego.)
Bark Like You Want It - Sir-Mix-A-Lot (NO NOT CUZ OF THE EDIT...ok maybe a TINY bit. But like I said, he would def listen to this dude....also why is this gif so hot...HIS FACE AND STANCE HELLO?!?! how did no one smooch this man during this scene?)
LET ME SEE YA MOVE! - Lumi Athena (ed would def listen to this song in a club while drinking shots, like, he would look across to you from the room an wink. I'm not the only one who can see this right? This song also makes me think about how crazy Edward really is. Like we can't deny he's absolutely insane. This gif makes me feel things bro...I LOVED HIS HAIR)
Ok, let's finish it off with one more..
mos thoser - food house (at first I didn't think this song fit him...but then I realized the lyrics reminded me of him a lot. 'Think about how many people know they're gay because of me'. Like come on...It also reminds me of how he can get rlly angry and be goofy. The song just is a mixture of his seriousness/goofiness/and his 'personality disorder' i guess? Does him conflicting with his riddler side count as that? I'm not sure what to call it but I'm sure you know what I mean <3. also the beginning of the song starts with mentioning that they picked up a disturbing tweet from the guy who made the song, and i totally feel like edward would tweet someone who disagreed with him saying something like "i have your address." lmaoooo

☆ Hello! I'm Issac, but you can also call me Basil or Vee! ☆
About me
☆ I'm 18 while my birthday is December 5th
☆ I'm working on becoming an animator
☆ I'm part American and part Honduran
☆ I'm bisexual, demisexual, and poly with a male preference! Plus I'm a transmasc demiboy and my pronouns are they/them/theirs, he/him/his, it/its/itself, bun/buns/bunself, xe/xir, ve/ver. Needless to say I'm very LGBTQ /lh
☆ I have Bipolar I and this affects how frequently I can draw and makes it very unpredictable for me. I also have Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder and that makes it pretty hard for me to focus. So if I say I'm going to get something out by a certain date and end up not doing it, I'm really sorry. I'm trying to draw more frequently and meet deadlines but sometimes my brain says "No." However, even if it's not out by the deadline, I'll still finish it at some point
☆ I was also diagnosed with Social Anxiety Disorder and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. So it's important to read about my triggers before interacting with me
☆ One day I'll be fluent in Japanese, Spanish, and German. So far I can recognize the Japanese hiragana symbols and a little bit of the katakana symbols

DMs
♤ If I'm not responding, I'm not ignoring you. I'm either just busy, I forgot to reply, or I just don't have enough energy to talk. I'll make sure I get back to you though
♤ I would prefer it if you used tone indicators since I'm really bad at telling tone
♤ Since I'm neurodivergent I have trouble noticing social cues, so please communicate with me if I'm doing something wrong
♤ It's very difficult for me to have "hi" "hello" conversations that really go anywhere
♤ I'm alright with making new friends, but since I'm 18, I'll only be friends with people 16+
♤ If you find me copying phrases you use, it's not on purpose! I think it's a neurodivergent thing but I dunno, it's just a thing I automatically do sometimes. You can let me know if you want me to stop though!

This is for your Single Dad Shiro verse; ever think of doing a story about how Red came into the picture? I'm super curious about it now.
I’m so sorry this took so long for me to answer. I feel so awful :(. I can’t excuse it but I never forgot about it! I l loved this prompt so much because Red and Keith are so special to one another. Their meeting was just so cute and loving. I hope you still like it and enjoy reading this! Thank you for sending this ask!
x.V.x
Shirowas no stranger to service dogs at all. Being in the military he’d workedclosely with many dogs and knew of service dogs to deal with PTSD outside ofthe military. He also now owned a business that paired up Veterans with servicedogs to help them return home.
So Shiroknew the good that service dogs could bring to people.
However,Shiro had never considered service dogs beyond PTSD victims of war or PTSDvictims in general. If it wasn’t for Keith, Shiro was sure he would have gottena service dog long ago, but he’d never considered that Keith would need a service dog.
“Wait,hold on. You wanna run that by me again?” Shiro asked Allura once more. She hadtagged along with him as he went to the park with Keith early in the morning.Currently, Keith was on the swings all by himself, where he had been for thepast couple of hours. Not once did he try to interact with the other kids orplay with anyone. Shiro knew that Keith got anxious around strangers, even kidsand even though he didn’t want to worry Keith, he was a bit worried that Keithwould be alone all his life. Shiro wanted Keith to be surrounded by love.
“Haveyou ever considered getting a service dog for Keith?” Allura asked with a raiseof her eyebrows. “I know for a fact that you know what service dogs are mister.”She pointed at Shiro firmly whose hands rose in mock surrender. He chuckled asKeith jumped off the swing when a couple of girls jumped onto the others.Quickly, the seven-year-old headed towards Shiro and Allura where Allura waswaiting with a juice box. Thanking her, Keith took a seat beside Shiro, legsbarely hanging off the bench. Shiro easily cuddled up to him, when Keith leanedagainst his side.
“I knowwhat a service dog is. But why one for…him?” Shiro asked, not wanting Keith toknow that they were talking about them.
“Servicedogs aren’t only for war veterans.” Allura laughed.
“I knowthat!”
“Or PTSDvictims.” Allura said softly and Shiro frowned in confusion. “There are manytypes of service dogs. Therapy dogs. Support dogs. Emotional support dogs.Service dogs that aid with illnesses. Getting a service dog for him could help with his distress atbeing separated from you and keep him calm when his anxiety gets bad.” Allurapointed out, causing Shiro to slump in his seat.
Shirowished that he was enough to calmKeith’s anxiety.
“Shiro,it’s not your fault. Sometimes we need other things to help keep us calm. Itdoesn’t mean you are doing a bad job.” As if reading his mind, Allura said thisand gave Shiro’s arm a gentle pat. He smiled weakly at her but it didn’t reachhis eyes entirely and Allura sighed. “Service dogs help. Surely you rememberhow much having a dog made you happy?”
Shirocould remember his husky as clear as day. He loved that dog to pieces and hehad been crushed when the dog finally passed away of old age just before hisfirst deployment. Shiro nodded.
“Butjust because you loved the dog and needed him, that didn’t mean you loved yourmom or dad any less, right?” Allura asked and Shiro nodded feeling embarrassed.“The same will go for him. He will always love you.”
Shirowas quiet for a few more moments as Keith finished up his juice box. Once hewas all done, he handed the box to Shiro and opted to remain seated besideShiro and Allura, rather than interacting with other kids. Shiro fondly glanceddown at his son, stroking back the bangs off Keith’s forehead and sighed.
“Youreally think a service dog would help?” Shiro asked and Allura beamed.
“Ofcourse! There are lots of benefits to having one and trust me. There are manychildren with his diagnosis who have service dogs or support dogs. Adults too.”Allura said gently. “I’m not telling you how to parent, Shiro. You don’t haveto do this but it wouldn’t hurt to consider it. Would it?”
Shirobit his lip and shrugged. “I guess not.”
FinallyKeith broke his silence. “Daddy I gotsta go to the bathroom.”
x.V.x
“Daddy,were you and Miss Allura talking ‘bout me, that day at the park?” Keith askedfrom his car seat in the back of Shiro’s car. Shiro glanced in the rearviewmirror, swallowing thickly when he saw Keith looking earnestly at him. How could he lie to those beautiful big,blue eyes? Shiro felt his heart sink when he pulled into the parking lot.He hadn’t realized that Keith had been listening to their conversation and hewas a smart boy.
“Um…”
“Aboutthe dogs? Were you talking about me?” Keith asked innocently and twiddle hislittle sneakers and Shiro knew he was a gone. Sayonara. So long. Asta La vistala Shiro. Goodbye.
“Yes.”Shiro admitted softly and parked the car. He turned the engine off in silenceand turned around to finally face Keith. However, Keith’s eyes were trained onwhat was just a few feet away from their car, with shocked eyes. There was asmall building with large glass windows and inside were dogs. Lots and lots of dogs.
Shiroalmost cooed and snapped a picture of Keith’s face upon seeing the dogs, as itslowly lit up. Maybe this wasn’t a badidea after all.
“Keith,would you like a dog?” Shiro asked when Keith finally started squirming in hisseat He honestly couldn’t remember when Keith had been this excited for anything other than Shiro, his familyand his three friends. It was a sight that Shiro wish he could keep forever.
If onlyhe keep that look on Keith’s face for the rest of his life.
What alook of wonder.
“Me?”Keith pressed a little finger to his chest and his mouth dropped open makinghim look much like a fish that Shiro wanted to swoon. Oh my, how could one little person be this cute? And to think he ismine. Shiro felt a goofy smile cross over his face.
“Yesbaby. A dog for you.” Shiro chuckledand Keith swung his arms wildly. He couldn’t even begin to figure out how toexpress himself to his daddy but this was all so much.
“Does aservice dog mean something is wrong with me? Cause of my autism?” Keith felthis excitement drain out of his quicker than when it had entered him.Instantly, Shiro felt his heart break at the self-conscious look in Keith’seyes. Keith was fully aware of his diagnostic and though he didn’t quite understandit yet, he was aware of it and even helped Shiro to research some. Okay, hemostly sat in Shiro’s lap while Shiro read and cuddled, but that was enough forShiro.
“Oh no,no. There is nothing wrong with you.”Quickly, Shiro unbuckled his seat belt and exited the car. He unbuckled Keithfrom his own car seat and pulled him into his arms for a tight hug. Keith buriedhis face into Shiro’s neck and inhaled deeply. “Keith, you are perfect just theway you are. Yes, you are autistic, but you are also smart. And kind. And you love the color red and you know the nameof all the dinosaurs memorized. You are my son and you are one of a kind.Sometimes people just need a little extra support and these dogs can help withthat. I used to hug my dog when I was little and got scared. You get nervoussometimes, don’t you?”
Timidly,Keith nodded.
“Then adog would help with that. Not because there is something wrong with you.Sometimes dogs can make us feel better, when people can’t.” Shiro explainedsoftly and pushed back Keith’s hair. The boy was quiet for a few more minutesbefore finally looking at Shiro. Thankfully, there weren’t any tears in hiseyes and Shiro smiled. “But Keith, if you don’t want a service dog, we do not have to get one. If you’reuncomfortable, we can go home now.”
Keithpaused in thought and tapped his chin. “No. It’s okay daddy. I wanna look.” Andthe smile that Keith sent Shiro was enough to relieve any of Shiro’s worries.Together the two of them entered the facility and readied themselves for whatwas to come.
x.V.x
“What doyou think Keith?” Shiro asked after a couple of hours. Shiro personally knew afew of the employees here and they were ecstatic to help Shiro and Keith out.They’d led Shiro to the dogs who had been trained especially for neurologicaldisorders, such as Asperger and Autism, and left them alone to look.
Keithhad been smiling the whole time as he went through dog after dog and pet themone after another. Each dog was already an adult and fully trained and each onehandled Keith with care. However, Shiro had yet to see a spark in Keith’s eyesthat signified the one.
“I don’tknow daddy.” Keith sighed sadly. He was currently petting a German Shepard whowas quietly sitting beside him. Keith had methodically been petting in the samespot for at least half an hour now.
“Didn’tfind the one?” Shiro asked with a wink and Keith visibly brightened with a nod.
“Yeah, Ilike all these doggies. But I just don’t know. None of them felt super special,and I don’t want them to think they’re not special because they all are.” Keithsaid quickly and quickly scratched the dog behind the ear as if to apologizefor not loving the do enough. Shiro chuckled
“Don’tworry Keith. All of these dogs know you loved them and they understand that youneed to find your dog.” Shiro smiledand brushed off his pants. Keith sighed heavily before pushing himself off theground and away from the dog, who had wandered off quietly. Just as the twowere about to exit the room, an excited little bark stunned them both and ablur of yellow zoomed into the room through the crack in the door.
Shirowatched as the little golden dog – puppyactually – jumped on top of Keith, knocking him to the ground. For a moment,Shiro’s heart froze and he went to grab the puppy off Keith only to freeze athearing Keith’s squeals.
Keith never squealed.
Shirofondly watched as the golden puppy’s tail wagged, looking like a blur, and itlicked all over Keith’s face and body. Keith squirmed under the puppy but therewas a huge smile on his face and his cheeks were rosy from laughing. Shiro felthis heart melt at the sight.
“Lily!No! Lily! Oh my god sir, I am so sorry.” A young man who must work here, ran inbreathlessly. He stared horrified at Keith and the golden puppy. “I am sosorry! She’s still in training but she doesn’t listen very well. She’s still soyoung and I am so sorry!”
When theman went to pull the puppy off Keith, Shiro stopped him. “It’s quite alright.She means no harm. Actually, she and my son seem quite taken with one another.”Shiro laughed softly and the man finally stepped back. “Is she available?”
“Um,well she’s only four months old. She’s still in training.” The teen explainednervously and Shiro nodded. “But she also has quite a temperament. She doesn’tget along well with a lot of people, nor does she listen well. Obviously.” Herolled his eyes and sighed heavily. Shiro frowned at the information but allhis worries went away upon seeing Keith sitting upright and rambling to thepuppy who was sitting happily in front of him. The puppy’s tail was stillwagging so much that her butt was wiggling.
“Do youthink my son and I could take her? As long as we continue her training here?”Shiro asked softly. The teen continued to watch Keith and the puppy inamazement and even he was starting to have trouble telling Shiro no. It was apparentthat Keith and this puppy had such a strong bond already and they’d only knowneach other for less than 10 minutes.
“I’llhave to ask my superior but…if she enjoys being around the kid. I don’t see whynot.” The teen shrugged and left the room to speak to his boss.
QuicklyShiro sat himself down next to the puppy and Keith. Quietly, he watched the twoin silence for a few more minutes as Keith introduced himself and Shiro to thepuppy, who seemed to intently be listening to Keith’s every word. Shiro couldn’thelp but smile at his son.
“Daddy,this is Red. I want her to come home with us, can we go home?!” Keith askedexcitedly and bounced up to his feet. The puppy was right on his heels and shejumped onto Shiro’s lap and suddenly he had twosets of puppy eyes looking at him. Thisisn’t good.
“WhyRed?” Shiro asked with a hint of a smile.
“Becauseshe looks like a Red doesn’t she?” Keith asked.
“Hercoat is yellow?”
“Not hercoat daddy. Her name!” Keith rolled his eyes dramatically and Shiro laughed. “LikeI look like a Keith. She looks like a Red, doesn’t she?”
“Shecertainly does.” Shiro smiled and gave the puppy a soft pet on the end. Thepuppy barked excitedly and nose at Keith who couldn’t stop smiling. Soon enoughKeith had begun to gather the items they would need for Red, while she followedafter him, always one step behind. Shiro began to notice that whenever Keith was starting to fidget with his hair or scratch at his hands, when he was getting nervous, Red would gently nip at Keith’s hand and pull him away. Once distracted she would nudge his side and they would continue to gather items together. She even kept him away from the strangers who had entered the room to talk to Shiro about Red and Shiro couldn’t be more proud. Shiro knew that no matter what answer theteen came back with, Red was theirs.
Welcome home Red.
