Help a disabled queer trans man and his nonbinary lifelong best friend move and survive
yes thats right im back and i need financial help once again! because my current job pays jack shit and our other, richer, roommate moved elsewhere because fuck us, i guess. if we dont get the money to move into this apartment, we will be homeless, and i dont want that happening to me again, let alone happening to my best fucking friend
our new rent is about $900 a month, and this is the only place we found that had an apartment open, so we couldnt go cheaper. we have to be moved out by the 1st of september and we only have about $400 right now when we need first months rent at minimum. (no, i dont get ssi, because despite my very apparent physical and mental disabilities, every attorney i could feasibly talk to has so far denied me even a simple consultation.)
PLEASE im fucking desperate, share and/or reblog if you cant spare any money, every donation is appreciated, just do something, im begging you

Apparently people who don’t have executive dysfunction think that actually working on something is the hardest part of doing something. And that’s why they get mad that you call the rest of the project “easy” after you’ve finally worked through doing the plan and know what to do when you’re working.
So when you’re through with the epiphany of how to make it physically possible to make the thing you’re making, and you’re sharing the plan with excitement, because the hard part is over, and now you only have to get your hands moving and do it, they get mad at you like
“it’s not that easy! It’s a lot of hard work! >:C”
they mean it, because
to them, working is the hardest part.
They don’t have to fight their brains to get started. They don’t have to fight their way through making the choices, making the plan, making yourself make the thing. People who don’t suffer from executive dysfunction think that the hardest part is actually doing the thing.
when you have executive dysfunction, it’s like… you’ve just clawed your way up a long steep embankment of loose gravel, and you flop exhausted into the construction site, and you’re like “oh thank fuck, time to lay some bricks, i absolutely could do this all day” and the guy who drove to the site goes “what’s wrong with you man bricklaying is hard graft!”
not as hard as crawling up the gravel mountain bro
there’s also good hard and bad hard. doing the thing might be hard, but at least you’re doing it; it’s good hard. just getting to the thing in the first place is hard and it’s fucking miserable. executive dysfunction puts so many bad hard things in your way before you can get to even the good hard things.
sometimes i describe it as my transmission is broken, every thing else works fine but no matter how hard I pump the gas pedal, I ain’t getting anywhere because I can’t
a fun thing to do when you come across an image of Mr. Beast is to zoom in so you cut off the lower part of his stupid grinning face and just look at his eyes. they’re never the eyes of a happy man
laios is perhaps the only character not to get the “they mentioned their favorite food once and the fandom makes it their whole personality” treatment. his favorite food is cheesecake and absolutely nobody cares
writing tip: don’t tell us your character’s backstory. don’t tell us what your character is thinking. don’t tell us what your character is doing. don’t tell us anything. the reader should simply look at a blank page and be suddenly overcome with emotion.
Good tip. I know a lot of writers who cry uncontrollably when they see a blank page, so I’m sure that feeling will translate directly to the reader.
this is why so many of us own many notebooks with nothing written in them just so we can feel something
The way most autism literature describes “literal interpretation” is often not at all similar to how I experience it. Teenage me even thought I couldn’t be autistic because I’ve always been able to learn metaphors easily.
In fact, I love wordplay of all kinds. Teenage me was fascinated to learn all the types of figurative language there are in poetry and literature.
But paperwork and questionnaires are hard, because there’s so much they don’t state clearly. Or they don’t leave room for enough nuance.
“List all the jobs you’ve had, with start and end dates.” What if I don’t remember the exact day or month? Is the year enough?
“Have you been suffering from blurred vision?” Well, if I take off my glasses the whole world is blurred, but I’m fairly sure that’s not what the intake form at the optometrist is asking.
Or the infamous (and infuriatingly stereotypical) “Would you rather go to a library or a party?” What sort of party? Where? Who’s there? I work at a library. Am I currently at the library for work or pleasure? Does it have a good collection?
It’s not common figures of speech that confound me. It’s ambiguity, in situations that aren’t supposed to be ambiguous.
