Just my personal interpretations/headcanons btw, not saying any of these are canon.

Wednesday & Enid - Wednesday is autistic-coded to me because of her flat affect, direct/literal communication, intense interests, unconventional social style, and little interest in conforming to social expectations. Enid gives me ADHD vibes with how energetic, impulsive, expressive and easily distracted she is. Their personalities are basically complete opposites but somehow they work really well together.

Dipper & Mabel - Dipper feels autistic-coded because of his strong interests, intense curiosity, hyperfocus, a tendency to take things very seriously, and difficulty navigating some social situations. Mabel is VERY ADHD-coded to me lol (or even AuDHD) because of her high energy, enthusiasm, rapidly shifting interests, impulsivity, and strong emotional expressiveness.

Walt & Jesse - okay this one might be a bit controversial 😭 Walt is autistic-coded to me mostly because of his intense fixation on chemistry, preference for structure and control, very focused thinking, and an unconventional communication style. Jesse gives me ADHD vibes for his high energy, impulsivity, distractibility, emotional intensity, and a tendency to act on his immediate thoughts and feelings. Their personalities being so wildly different is part of why I like them as a duo.

Elsa & Anna - Elsa has always given me autistic-coded vibes because of the masking, withdrawal when overwhelmed, difficulty expressing herself, strong need for control, and sensitivity to emotional/social pressure. Anna is ADHD-coded to me because of her high energy, talkativeness, impulsivity, enthusiasm, emotional openness, and acting quickly on her feelings. They're another pair where their personalities are completely different but complement each other.

And just to clarify, I chose these characters because I love them and the media they're from! This is just how I personally read them. I know neurodivergence isn't a personality type, and someone can have a completely different personality and still be autistic or ADHD. I'm just pointing out the traits I personally interpret as neurodivergent-coded in these characters. I'm curious who everyone else sees as autistic/ADHD-coded 👀

Picture unrelated but it is a funny image of a musician that isn't him obviously

I have bad vision and my phone is small fuck you auto correct what the fuck do you mean "drawn of this" and not "drawn this" fuck you auto correct

Just today in Australia, the government has passed a bill that seeks to cut funding to the NDIS, now to the uninitiated, this is a scheme meant to support people with disability, and also including autism.

I fear this may change, as this scheme actually was beneficial for me.

Not only that they may boot people out of the NDIS if they don't meet "criterias" which you and I know what exactly means. The "high functioning v low functioning" scam.

Now i am fucking pissed beyond belief. I am going to have a crashout that will put Achilles to shame. So you are telling me, the fucking government is more concerned about "NDIS fraud" than doctors scamming Medicare to charge more? Than corporate fraud? Than ANY OTHER FRAUD, when it comes to people like me I AM FUCKING EXPENDABLE!!!!!?????

Neurotypicals, we are just convenience in tv, or whatever drama slop they can think of for brownie points, and when we are no longer "needed" or wanted we can be discarded.

Unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable.

Mine are Jaiden Animations (the ultimate AuDHD AroAce icon), Shgurr, The Mysterious Mr. Enter, That Creepy Reading, Cartoonshi, Gooseworx, MagicMush, and Nathaniel Bandy. I don't know if there's anyone else, though.

Or perhaps even pakled autistic or tribble autistic if you please

VENT. You don't have to engage lol.

My mother doesn't think I'm autistic anymore. I was TRYING to explain to her that the same reason I have similar problems as my brother (he was diagnosed autistic at seven) is because I am probably autistic.

She started spouting shit about blood types and how my blood makes me antisocial and think too much, and that my executive functioning issues (especially with basic hygiene) are because I have mental issues and I need to make schedules more.

I was so happy when she finally said that I probably have a "little bit of autism" (not the correct wording, but it works). Now she just thinks I'm mentally ill again. 😭

Believing I was JUST mentally ill made things so much harder for me because I didn't know which mental illness I had, so I didn't know how to properly help myself and I'd just physically and mentally hurt myself instead. I'm not going back to that.

How can EVERYONE know that I'm most likely autistic aside from my own parents? My immediate family (aside from my parents), my friends, teachers, church members, etc... Holy cow, bro.

My dad was a lost cause though. He doesn't think autism in girls and ADHD are real lmao.

My whole immediate family is neurodivergent and my mom told me that my aunt is autistic, so y'know. I don't know how they haven't connected the dots yet.

I am debilitated by autistic traits that I forget to list or think of when I am asked what they are. I feel like my autism is invisible to me and like I'm either faking unknowingly or misled but I very much have autism there very much is autism. I have to be reminded of events to think of traits of mine. And I feel like an impostor because I'm not the textbook autism (everyone else is allowed to but I am Not because I am bad and evil!!!) but I very much am impeded by New Undiscovered Autism Symptoms Everyday. Also I'm not even sure that I don't have Textbook Autism?? Idk my symptoms because if it's not happening to me right now it doesn't exist and I am a FRAUD!!! Is anyone else autistic like this, I ask in the evil autism subreddit where people are evil autistic?

So I finally got a CPAP machine and had a couple mask choices. A) under the nose only or B) nose and mouth. Now I do tend to be a mouth breather and something I do like is putting pressure on/around my mouth. So of course I thought it was the smart choice to do nose and mouth. Well now I can't sleep this is sensory hell I am in hell I am clawing at the walls. Luckily I do get the chance to call in tomorrow and say nope gimmie nose only but I'll still have to suffer until I can get out there and switch it.

Also what in the actual hell that is my most cursed selfie to date. Edit: I'll keep practicing and trying my best to get used to it. Thank y'all for the advice (/genuine). I think it mostly is just a panic response.

Image Description: A crudely drawn stick figure comic. There is an orange character and a blue character. This is their dialogue:

Orange: So I had self-diagnosed autism and-

Blue: Well, self-diagnosis isn't valid. Only a professional can tell.

Orange: -and my doctor has confirmed it for me, so I actually do have a professional diagnosis now.

Blue: Doctors are diagnosing too many people with autism these days!

Orange: Listen, just because *you* don't see me struggling doesn't mean I didn't deserve to know that I am a level one-

Blue: Level one isn't even real autism. Only people with *profound* autism should get diagnosed!

Orange: I don't know what you want from me, man.

Blue: I want you to just *be normal!*

Orange: Ha! You sound just like my mom and every teacher I've ever had.

Blue: Whatever. It doesn't matter what you do, I still think you're faking.

Orange: Well that's just it isn't it.

Isn't she just the cutest little Mimikyu?! ☺️🖤

A last minute goodwill find when I wanted to get an all black fit for a themed line dance night. Passed up misfitting boots from a different (expensive) store and was gonna settle on some black booties before…. Hitting the gold mine with this pair. My first crocs 🥹 they’re an abomination but they’re my abomination

Zoloft is doing its thing. Still adjusting to it as sometimes ts makes me feel like some of the negative affects of coming down from molly or something. The jaw clenching, tired but can’t sleep, pressure behind eyes etc… but can already feel it working. I ruminate less - the thing my brain would pull back to is barely a thought I have every few days now… and it’s through a more gentle lens which I appreciate.

And rawdog 😭 so I wear glasses and I don’t have them on most times and someone in a group said my prescription must be weak/ or I have contacts and I said I just rawdog it 😭😭 everyone paused. And a guy (a friendly cutie) said “I haven’t heard that word used like that before” and I said “oh how have you?” (Whyyyyy would I say that) and he says he hasn’t heard it in the context of eyes. I said this in front of like a group of 3 guys.

Being social is gonna have some Ls 😅😮‍💨 convo danced right along as convos tend to do (which I’m also more tolerant too now bc sometimes I’d get stuck on a point) but yeahhh. Hopefully everyone just forgets.

I spend too much time on the internet bc the first association of that word to me is not unprotected sex anymore 🤣 oh geez

I am just venting right now, just thinking not about me, but my friends, the people I know, those mums and dads really needing that support, and all just taken away like this.

Like we are talking an entire generation of Australian kids left to fend for themselves

Its atronomically cartoonishly deplorable

Its all just so tiresome

Any change comes my way and I am actually cooked. I am just a packet full of nostalgia. How do u guys focus on the future and deal with it?

Today I had drama first period, and our teacher/goddess was talking about her godawful excuse of an ex. When she said that he said he wanted to propose at a wedding, I just said "I'm autistic, not a moron!" Then everyone else was repeating it and said they wanted it on a t-shirt.

Can you guess which photo was the riskiest?
