So appreciation of nature's highly diversified habitat got combined with a joke? Perfect.

I don't know how to use code and apply it to stuff, I don't know if this is safe or what it does. If anyone can explain how to use this please do.

Especially undiagnosed, because "nothing's wrong with you, so stop acting weird and people will treat you normally". How about we just treat people normally? Even if they're weird? For no reason. It cripples us in confidence on top of not being able to pick up on social cues.

Those who are happy go lucky irl are THE strongest (mentally/emotionally) people I have met.

the thing that always gets me ESPECIALLY about autistic representation in media is that we are universally portrayed as happy-go-lucky, whimsical children, completely oblivious to the fact that the world constantly judges and scorns and HATES us.

We notice. I noticed. The reason I am as messed up as I am today is because i spent 20 LONG years in an environment where every day i was subjected to that. To noticing.

what an absolutely neurotypical view of us. Coddling themselves, getting to act like the way they treat us is fine because we don't understand that our peers dont respect us. Why would we? We're so subhuman to them, it's like asking if your cat notices you playfully insulting it.

Every autistic person I've ever met is on some level bitter and angry and TRAUMATIZED at their upbringing. Of having to go through school as the laughing stock, as the weirdo with no friends who no one wants to talk to, as the animal in the corner you can make do cheap tricks so they can experience some Simulacra of what genuine human connection is.

Now tell me, does it sound like I didn't notice?

Even if you don't enjoy school we know historically that education is the key to autonomy. Learning is hard, exhausting at times. It is always worth it.

“I hate school I’m sorry Malala”- Funny yet poignant. Acknowledges both the difficulty of the task and the fact that doing that task is a privilege. Gives credit to the people who fought for that privilege with a tongue in cheek acknowledgement of the irony of the initial statement

“I’m just a girl I should be home baking bread not doing calculus” - at best historically uninformed at worst leaps decades back in time. Refusal to acknowledge the charged history of education and slights the centuries of women’s labor it took to reach this point
