You know, I fucking hate the jokes that people with ADHD and autistic people just magically get along well.
Like....spoiler alert.....but putting two people with conflicting sensory needs in a room together is a recipe for disaster.
I have ADHD and autism. I have a lot of issues with loud noises or movement. If you put me in a room together with someone who vocally stims, we are not going to get along well. It's not that they're a bad person, it's not that I'm a bad person, we just have conflicting needs.
I stim a lot by pacing and wringing my hands. My dad, who probably has ADHD, gets really anxious when people pace.
This is a big reason why lumping all the disabled students in one classroom is bad idea, like many schools do. Because like all people, disabled people are each different people. With different needs. With different sensory needs and triggers.
Someone could stim by smacking their lips, while another person could have misophonia and have a strong reaction to those sounds.
Treating disabled people like humans is acknowledging that we're all different people, and we don't magically all get along because we share a condition. Like....it would be bigoted to assume that of any other marginalized group, so why would you do that to disabled people?
(I felt really motivated so I drew another. )
Also based on The Siblings of Fate, this is Lyra, cloned from Optimus's spark.
Lyra grew up with Carina after they were born and loved her like her real sister. But just like Carina, she was thrown to the Quintessa hunting grounds where they were forced to fight for survival, and after escaping those hunting grounds and their Quintesson masters, she, Carina, and their adopted younger sister, Bria, fled to Earth where they found their first real home and took new names.
Lyra took her name for her love of music and because she simply liked the name.
Lyra is more mischievous by nature. She would always prank someone whenever the opportunity showed itself. This sometimes made her look childish, but she is more mature than she looks --- never going too far with the pranks. Lyra is also adventurous but has a bad tendency to go into dangerous places simply for the thrill of an adventure (This sometimes causes Carina a headache). She is quick with words and tends to have a bad habit of insulting and angering people for the fun of it. Lyra is pretty patient herself, but when there is danger, she is quick to throw herself into battle with feral intensity. It is a fight reflex due to her time on the hunting grounds, which makes her a dangerous opponent. She does not talk about her trauma much as she would rather focus on the future and her new life. However, whenever she notices her sisters suffering from nightmares, she would be there to offer silent comfort as none of them likes to talk about the past. She is loving and fiercely loyal to her family.
Her hobbies include traveling and singing. Lyra is a music lover and has a brilliant singing voice. She sometimes sings calming tones whenever her family members feel down and together with her human sibling, she sings cover songs on the internet, which allows her human family to have a source of income.
Lyra is pretty lazy when it comes to doing chores at the farm. She does not like getting herself dirty, so she takes the task of driving her human family to town when there is either a need for groceries or her human sibling has a school day.
Lyra's favorite flowers are Zinnia and Camellia.
Lyra's alt-form is a pink supra. She likes driving around and showing off whenever she picks up her human sibling from school, helping with their popularity status.
Lyra's primary weapon is an energon-powered chain blade. Due to her smaller frame, the Quintessons deemed her a failure thus she was not given any other built-in weapons. But thanks to her experiences in the hunting grounds, she became a fierce combatant and fluent in the use of her only weapon.
I saw Transformers One yesterday and I loved it sososo much!!! So I just HAD to draw myself a Cybersona? Transforsona? Me as a Transformer. This my first time drawing any remotely robotic so this was a challenge for me. If the proportions or logistics are off, it’s because I was just free-balling it lol
I don’t have a name yet or what faction I’m in but I’m definitely thinking about it.
I have so many pieces in the works, and I have so much more planned, so have a bunch of WIPS.
what a beautiful wedding!!
Practicing drawing Severus Snap-Crackle-Pop whilst entertaining thoughts of lore about that fanfic I’m never gonna finish writing.
A quick Hidan.
