What Is A “starseed” And Why Do I See So Many Autism Moms Post About Their Autistic Child Being One?

how it feels trying to talk yourself out of buying yet another plastic horse to add to your collection

… you absolutely cannot support disabled people and support the police at the same time. the police routinely abuse and murder disabled people and are not only exonerated, they are celebrated for it. the police as an institution is antithetical to disabled liberation. there is no version of reality where a police state and disabled safety can coexist.

happy autism awareness day to all the girls who had “ friends” growing up who were actually bullying them . to the girls who always sat alone in the grass and wondered why nobody wanted to talk . to the girls who spoke to animals like they were listening . to the girls who created a little world in their room . to the girls who always felt ashamed for how deeply they love things and how passionately they enjoyed media . to the girls who covered their ears when they were overwhelmed by everything . to the girls who carrying a special thing around to feel safe . to the girls who never understood what they did wrong to feel so lonely . to the girls who were diagnosed later in life because they weren’t little boys who liked trains. you are so special and beautiful and you’re not worse for it, you love deeply and that is so wonderful please never try to push that down . I LOVE YOU !!!!!

why did nobody tell me that GERD was a chronic illness? i was diagnosed with GERD a while ago when i was very stressed out from high school, it flared up and i had to restrict things i was eating. it still flares up when im stressed out and my whole family has gastrointestinal problems-but i was never told that this is a chronic illness. i guess i never realized that this is a life time issue. when i’m feeling okay, i don’t need to restrict what things i eat as much but then ill have stomach issues that i just deal with bc i like eating my favorite foods and drinking my favorite drinks. idk just a ramble.

my favorite hack for my GERD or any acid reflux is putting a pinch or two of baking soda in my water/drink. you can barely taste it and it neutralizes the acid in your tummy.

I am a grown ass adult and I still get nausea when I feel like I'm in trouble. They're gonna send me to the principals office and take away my toys for a week. Can you just fucking kill me instead of making me stew in my fucking anxiety

i listen to a lot of true crime/psychology/crime stories because it’s been a long term interest of mine. something that always bothers me is when there is disabled victims specifically victimized by their parents/primary caregivers. when you have sex to get pregnant and have a child, you are signing up for a disabled child whether you like it or not! “it won’t happen to me” but it could! and you could also become disabled. it boggles my mind why some people who hate their disabled child then decide to keep and take care of a person who needs help or is dependent on them and then in turn decide to ABUSE THEM.

i am nooooot locked the fuck in. im locked the fuck out. call the locksmith

i wish that i could get into other media other than mlp. it has been my special interest for 15 years, ever since mlp fim came out, when i was 4/5 !! i am interested in a couple other things, like homestuck, psychology, true crime, and disabilities. other than that, it is VERY VERY hard for me to get into anything else. i am horrible at starting new shows, and finishing them ! it makes me so frustrated because i would love to join my partner in her interests but i just get really bored and would rather listen to a true crime case i have already learned about 5 times or draw pinkie pie for the 1,809,263rd time.

i have to make my burps and farts a joke or else i’ll cry /hj

just a kind reminder to please be kind to the people you know with gastrointestinal disorders/conditions! they're embarassing, often very painful - sometimes debilitating - and very hard to talk about without oversharing a lot more than most are comfortable with.

if someone you know:

- spends a lot/long time in the restroom

- has a colostomy bag

- requires diapers or similar implements

- experiences a lot of gas and/or bloating

- requires tube feeding or other alternative methods of nutrition

- has food restrictions (e.g. cannot handle a lot of spices, certain proteins, etc.)

- eats a lot, or only a little

or other similar factors of their life...

please be patient and understanding, it's hard having guts that really like disagreeing with you!
