I have so many pieces in the works, and I have so much more planned, so have a bunch of WIPS.

This still blows my mind

Smirking Statue

Wilbur: Why isn’t the statue smirking at me?

Chayanne: It isn’t smirking at anyone, they’re all just imagining it.

Wilbur: Three of us saw it, Chayanne. How do you explain that?

Chayanne: *points at Tallulah* Sleep deprivation. *points at Missa* Paranoia. *points at Philza* Delusional personality disorder.

Wilbur: Oh my God....

I don’t think that a lot of people know what ABA/masking “therapy” actually does to autistic children.

(ANALOGY) If you’re taking a pan out of a hot oven and it hurts your hand, you’ll scrunch your face up and go “ow!” But then someone else comes along and tells you to be quiet, and then force you to keep taking out and putting back in the pan, until you don’t react when you do it. It still hurts, of course, but you’ve been conditioned to not react whenever you are burned by the pan. You could’ve used an oven mitt or had someone else get the pan for you, or maybe just not have done it at all, but you were told for years what the “right way” to take the pan out was. And now you’ve built up callouses, and take the pan out the exact way you were trained to, unconsciously ignoring your pain. It still hurts, but you’re not supposed to do it another painless way, and instead continue to hurt, because it’s all you were taught to do.

ABA doesn’t make autistic kids’ lives easier, it makes the parents’ lives easier, because now they won’t have to listen to their child telling them that they’re in pain. Your child is upset and hurting, but it’s too “hard/stressful” for you to acknowledge and help them.

WE ARE NOT AN ANNOYANCE OR A BURDEN. WE ARE YOUR CHILDREN. WE ARE NOT A BROKEN PUZZLE THAT NEEDS TO BE PUT BACK TOGETHER.

We are people, we have thoughts and feelings, and we feel pain. But we keep it bottled up inside because showing love and care for your child is apparently too “difficult” for you.

This is Lore. They live in the walls and hidden spaces of a castle; making friends with the little beasties that scurry about; eats honeysuckle, violets and rose hip from the gardens. They also enjoy spying on the human inhabitants and drawing the ones that are the most interesting.
