RFK Jr. is a dangerous bigoted EUGENICIST who hates Autistic people. He should be removed from office for a multitude of reasons including his clear discrimination against & hatred of Autistic people. Please use the hashtag #RemoveRFK to help remove him from office.

One of the Autistic Love Languages is “I saw this and thought of you” Some people call this “penguin pebbling”

Perfect Video … 1) Autism is a disability, especially through the lens of the Social Model of Disability. 2) While it’s perfectly cromulent to say “Autism is *my* Superpower” it’s problematic to say “Autism *is* a Superpower”

This is one of the most accurate threads on what we are trying to do with Uncanny X-Men ever. Thank you, Mykola.

You ‘run the gamut’ and ‘run the gauntlet.’ You don’t ‘run the gambit.’ gamut = entire range or series gauntlet = severe trial Gambit = Alpha-level mutant who can convert potential energy to kinetic energy

I think steven universe did it well

I used to think I was indecisive. Now I'm not so sure.

I bought a hammer at the garage sale for 25 cents. It’s a quarter pounder.

Many Autistic people thoroughly enjoy watching Autistic coded media and then info dumping about it to each other. This can be a form of parallel play for many of us.

Another of the well accepted Autistic love languages is parallel play. Parallel play means to do relatively *independent* activities *together*

This is extremely accurate and I'm living for it. Relatable Autism Memes to Stim To Part 1.

Many Autists operate on “Autistic Inertia” and it only has two states. At rest and … BOOM

It is a myth that all Autists are solitary by nature. As in all things related to Autism it varies widely from person to person. Social Autists tend to socialize in atypical ways.

Many Autists are social, just not in the Allistic way. For example, many of us derive ineffable satisfaction from quietly observing others.

So yeah … one of the things that Autistic ppl do privately is talk about which celebrities we think are Autistic … but we rarely talk about this publicly … but … anyway … Weird Al apparently has something to say:

If you think you are Autistic, it’s very likely that you are. What is confusing the issue is that you learned to blend in with everything around you, despite being radically different from the background. Now you are having difficulty even seeing the truth about yourself.

Many Autistic ppl miss what *you* might think are obvious social cues. Please be open and blunt with us instead of assuming we are “in the know” on non-verbal cues and subtext.

@GailSimone I thought that having the “moleman” character from the Pixar Incredibles franchise show up was a Disney over-reach /jk

I really enjoyed the Fantastic Four movie but it's weird they had to create a villain (Galactus) instead of using someone from established FF lore.
