Animatronics Are One Of My Special Interests And The Other Day I Was At Work, And I Literally Just Thought

being autistic as a kid without knowing it be like: *taps foot on the floor* *gets told to stop because the tapping is annoying* *stims in the school bathroom* *stims at home* *stims when reading whatever book you attached yourself to* *gets called a good reader* *attaches self to a group of people who don’t really wanna be your friends but they tolerate you* *gets placed with random people for group projects* *stims in the school bathroom* *gets called a picky eater at home* *gets put into the gifted program but is also really bad at some topics* *draws in class* *stims in class* *gets ignored* *stims in class* *stims in class* *stims in c

funny that I’ve always been attracted to mythology, and my favorite stories/deities have always been ones of transformation and shapeshifting. makes sense now that I know I am a shapeshifter lol

EXACTLY!! Or (in the case of snakes) it’s to make them feel “safer” when in reality snakes want nothing to do with people!! Let them do their work in peace. Not to mention snakes are often beneficial to humans anyway… grr just makes me irritated how stupid humans can be.

I can't even get mad at humans saying absolutely fucking braindead things under videos of mustelids (and animals in general) because at this point I'm amazed at their stupidly.

How do some humans go day to day being so incredibly dumb and clueless about literally any other species around them? Humans really don't deserve to be called the most "intelligent" animal lmao.

you ever just get super thirsty, guzzle half a water bottle, and think “aa yes this will sustain me for the next month”

(I don’t know if this is just me or if other neurodivergent people experience this but) growing up I was bullied/shamed for having any interests whatsoever so now I’ve just learned to internalize any impulses to infodump. like I really want to talk about all these really interesting things, but like even thinking about telling another person just feels so wrong? and dirty? I don’t really know if this makes sense, but it’s basically unstoppable force (the need to share my hyperfixations) vs immovable object (paralyzing anxiety)

Definitely!! I get super alert almost to the point of hypervigilance especially if I’m tired but don’t feel safe enough to relax.

Anyone else super jumpy while sleep deprived? Like my mother and her friend are talking and I keep jumping like a scared little bat and I'm confusedd

I was the anon who requested this board! it looks so cute, thank you!!! I can’t stop happy flapping now :)

non-binary rat stimboard for anon!

has anyone else noticed their sensory issues getting worse during quarantine? particularly my sensitivity to sound has worsened. I feel like I’ve had the ability to control my surroundings so much that going out in public now is a real struggle cause it’s just so loud and chaotic.

i need to be out in the woods so bad im gonna explode

A note on terms: I do not use the terms therian or otherkin. I may technically fit into these categories, but I do not like these labels (nothing against people who do use them though). I am a physically nonhuman shapeshifting changeling fae creature, and I am a holothere.

I may occasionally use other tags, but these are the only nonhuman labels I feel really suit me.
