Very Autistic, very queer, and proud of it •
Exclusionary politics are bullshit - Give me unconditional acceptance or go away.
Because of my current health status being so bad, especially because of how bad my hands hurt, I am unable to do any tagging on posts I reblog. If you need to unfollow, that’s perfectly fine, no hard feelings.
Since I was asked; Yeah, I would absolutely really appreciate anything you can donate to help me get a shitty second hand wheelchair right now… Literally any little bit is so meaningful to me 💜 Here’s my PayPal
My powerchair is broken and might be unfixable, going out with only one crutch hurts too bad, and I still gotta get to doctor’s appointments and such at the very least :(
I’m currently still working on my PIP form and hopefully once all of that’s done money will be less of a constant emergency, but I’m struggling extremely bad atm
Really really hoping I can go to the mobility showroom tomorrow and ask them about wheelchairs… They’ve been lovely when I’ve visited before and having some advice from people who know about this stuff would be really good
Noooo bro, this time they really are oversexed perverts and freaks who deserve to be shunned by society, I promise this time it’s not because they’re overwhelmingly queer and neurodivergent, this time we’re right in calling them cringe, I promise this time they actually deserve to be bullied, bro c'mon, where are you going bro, why won’t you make fun of furries with me, bro come back
Up until they said “furries,” this was fully generalizable. I think they made it worse by making it specific. Otherwise, it would have been timeless.
Good thing I wasn’t actually setting out to make a timeless post, I was just venting about the treatment of furries specifically and it kinda blew up.
However, if anybody wants to apply this to another overwhelmingly queer & nd group, feel free to memeify this.
I’d recommend Rover’s Makeover Dog Grooming if you’re looking for a YouTube channel
From what I remember she isn’t really judgemental and she’s good at not overwhelming the dogs - she has a few videos of really matted dogs :)
She’s my favourite!! Really excellent grooming and handling, and I love how she does free grooms sometimes for people who need it since she can afford it thanks to the YouTube revenue. She’s also been lovely with speaking about how judgement doesn’t help, you don’t know anyone’s circumstances, and what’s important is to help the dog’s. I love that
Sometimes I watch dog grooming videos on YouTube, and this groomer lady keeps grabbing the dog’s face and putting her own close!! Trying to calm him down!! Girl that’s how you get bit
She’s also really judgy and making so many assumptions about the owners of this matted dog in the shittiest way I don’t like her :/
He’s scared of the clipper and she said “this tells me he was hurt with a clipper before, and it wasn’t from a professional” or?? He just hasn’t been conditioned to deal with it?? It’s loud and it vibrates and it’s scary
“He fights it, I go back” You’re escalating it’s what you’re doing
And then let another dog approach him??? Yeah no I’m out this whole thing sucks

things that made me stop wanting to die that require no effort whatsoever
change the color used to highlight text on your laptop
move the pictures on your wall
stack whatever clutter is in your room into piles even if you don’t have time to clean it all
slightly vary your commute, even just by one street
change where you sit and scroll aimlessly on your phone even if it’s only to the chair in your room instead of your bed
drink water or juice out of a wine glass in the morning because nothing is real
shower with the lights off, without music
buy $3 flowers at trader joe’s—they look bad next to the more expensive ones but they look so good in your room
start typing things you don’t post into your notes. your thoughts can be worth documenting even if you don’t deem them worth sharing
wake up super early just once. you don’t have to make it a habit it’s just extra satisfying to go to bed that night
listen to the entirety of your favorite album from 2015
Almost all of these are about variety. Humans need stimulation! We need enrichment! We literally cannot do the same thing every day!
The other day I was feeling miserable, so I hopped on a bus and rode it all the way back to where I’d started, and my brain, which had finally had some proper stimulation via new environments, was suddenly ready to go again!
This is why taking walks/drives and trying new hobbies are good for you! Don’t turn yourself into a sad zoo animal! You need some pumpkins to roll around in your enclosure!
ITS BACK!!!!!
god i fucking love the quote “dont turn yourself into a sad zoo animal” it has really inspired me!
