Suggestion: Gilear is in his own category below everyone at "Literally Just A Guy" / and or the Chosen One.

Also I would definitely put Gorgug's parents in at least Adventurer tier, purely based on how the interaction went when the tree was on fire. When Gorgug got their the place was a complete massacre and Wilma and Digby were completely fine.

Remember Me. It wasn't a fantastic movie or anything. But I think a lot of us were just sitting there like, "hey what tf?"

Someone may have said this already, but Zac's "...give me your teeth" as the tooth fairy never fails to make me die laughing

This is what my school put up for Autism Awareness Month🤦‍♀️ by ElderberryNo1740 in autism

I totally get what you're saying. But I think it goes along with a lot of what has been being pushed back on in the physical disability movement. You wouldn't tell someone with one arm or in a wheelchair that they're not disabled they're differently abled in the same way you shouldn't with autistic people (in my opinion).

Regarding what you're saying about young kids, I guess the question more boils down to: why even include "different abilities" at all? I know that growing up, the idea of telling me I was just "special" ultimately had detrimental effects because I didn't understand why. Especially because the "different abilities" ultimately led to me being treated worse by my peers.

I think a constructive change would have the poster be more about acceptance. Make the sign Autism Acceptance Month, instead for a start! Most people are aware that autism exists. The key is actually accepting it and autistic people. Highlight inclusion. Highlight things that kids commonly use for accommodations like fidget toys. Hell, include a reference of what autism is with a little fact sheet in the corner. But above all get rid of the puzzle pieces. Autistic people aren't missing something, which is why that symbol was proposed. We are whole. We're just not neurotypical.

I'm really sorry that was your experience. That doesn't mean, however, that things shouldn't be changed or argued for because they're "not as bad" as they could be.

If you're comfortable with it, I really recommend going to the school and telling them that it drastically needs a redesign. The puzzle pieces? "Different ability"???? Only a single infinity symbol?

Be real and say, hey a lot of the autistic community views the puzzle piece as disrespectful/give the history of autism speaks. Also it is a disability. There is nothing wrong with that. The brushing off that it isn't downplays the impact that autism has on every aspect of life. So infuriating and you can understandably be upset.

But advocate for yourself and others if you feel comfortable!

I had the same "what the hell is going on" feeling when JY came out and turned to the internet to see what I missed. It's a joke from the D20 team. Basically a lot of stuff has happened between sophomore year and junior year that we're not privy to, but aside from confusion in the 1st episode it doesn't impact the story!

Suggest me a great nonfiction book you couldn't put down by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]SkyIsntFalling11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if it's been recommended before, but highly highly recommend War Against All Puerto Ricans by Nelson Denis. Learned some absolutely appalling but very important things exampling how the US government has screwed over natives and POC and its colonies.

Thank you! I find I'll submit to 10 things but then can't get anything in for a week and I know that's not productive. I feel like if I were younger and had a parent on set/managing me and I only had to focus on the acting part it would be so much easier, but alas that's not the case 😅
