Apparently, all autistic people are either awkward geniuses like Sheldon from the Big Bang theory or they're unfunctonal and can't use the bathroom on their own. Fucking stereotypes are starting to get on my nerves. I hate people sometimes :|
It’s almost like those blue lights aren’t doing anything to actually raise people’s awareness of autism and what it is…Gosh, I wonder where that particular campaign could possibly be going wrong…
(Pardon my sarcasm. I find sometimes the only appropriate response to these ridiculous stereotypes is a hefty dose of acerbic sardonicism.)

Because it’s so much better than yours]
I think most of us have heard this at least once, that autistics live in our “own little worlds.” And I’m pretty sure other autistics on tumblr have already gone over the problems with it.
But I couldn’t resist. Every time I see someone says autistics live in their own little worlds, this is what I think in response. I dunno, I guess my time outside of my “world” has turned me into one hell of a smartass. Whoops.
