Probably ooc but i thought it would be funny lol
Pjo fans insist they don't see Percy Jackson as autistic but the proof is in the blue pudding in how they treat him that they know he's audhd and not allistic adhd
They make fun of him for his (special) interests because he's super into 'kiddy/silly' things and pretend he's into ones he's never even mentioned(The Little Mermaid,Nemo,etc)while ignoring his actual tastes,they call stupid 'affectionatelly' when he's expressed verbally AND in his narration so many times it's upsetting and that it's something he's resigned himself to eternally happening to him rather than growing to like it,they turn his younger loved ones into his 'babysitters' when HE'S the one constantly looking out for younger people on eldest sibling/pseudo-dad instinct,they treat his lack of social skills as a moral failing even though nobody ever fucking taught him how to mask so now he literally can't and the peer abuse,parental abuse,parental abandoment AND grooming into a child soldier for his entire teenage years did NOT help,they insist he's a stereotypically masculine cis man despite countless instances of misandry and discomfort in male roles and gender neutral at BEST gender presentation and several moments that heavily indicate he wants femininity and maybe even womanhood and they invalidate his autism as even a posibility with the excuse he has adhd,as if they aren't a super common combo platter and autistics/audhd people aren't misdiagnosed-on purpose at a number of not uncommon times!!!-as adhd is seen as more 'normal' than autism
Of course Perseo 'Percy' Isadore Jackson is autistic!!He's the personification of black audhd and the abuse and alienation that comes with it!He's also the paragon of how cool black audhd people are and our cycle breaking and reclamation of our traits we were forced to think means there's something 'wrong' with us but you whatever the greek equivalent to weaboo is geeks won't let him be cool,BECAUSE he's audhd and you think every autistic person is 'supposed' to 'accept' we're losers so you can't get uncomfy🥺 when confronted with the fact autism IS a spectrum,not as a joke but as a reality,but you don't wanna say that so you deny he's autistic to not feel bad even though what you're doing IS bad!!!!!Like objectively,Percy is a role model for neurodivergent kids to show them they're not what their tormenters say they are and that they can grow up to be the adults they needed to save them when we were younger when everyone just choose to hurt us!Percy is NOT allistic,he's the most autistic character of the entire american media 2000s-2010s era and if you insist he's not,just call him a r*tard instead.It would be less ableist than this embarrassing disaster you oldheads who harrassed a lil black girl,for existing as something other than a blonde unnatural eye colors white girl,have been pulling since what is going to be 20 years in not too long.What if i killed 'Pjo fandom elders' who want the gender ambigious autistic afropunk anarchist to sell out for their premordial booktok ships with hammers
Harris really will just disappear into the ether for a year before kicking open a wall like the fucking Kool-Aid Man, drops a nuke upon our peaceful lives, ends at least one person's career, and then gives a beautiful monologue about how beautiful life and community is that leaves you teary-eyed, and then he just fucks off into the ether again to repeat the cycle
also on the topic of misappropriated AA(V)E I wonder how whitepeople on this site would react if we en masse started reblogging their obvious blaccent humor posts and just straight up tagged them as antiblackness and nothing else. imagine the mass panic attacks. nationwide shortage of paper bags.
i'm just curious bc i'm watching How to Train Your Dragon and i always forget how happy and calm it makes me feel. i mean, i did name my cat after Toothless the dragon. but i also love Lion King, that's my Disney comfort movie. and my Ghibli comfort movie is Spirited Away. watching any of these when i'm in a foul mood or my anxiety is high always helps 🥰 but i watch them just for fun too, not only when i'm in a mood. what about you?
Percy is objectively just as autistic as Nico,just on a different end of the spectrum,and the assumption Percy is allistic to bash her for her nonexistent privilege against Nico as a transfem egg to his closeted gay boy is only used by Perc*cos and J*sicos to make Nico look like a 'victim' against the oh so evil non-stereotypical autist when she loves him more than anyone else except for Hazel,who is ALSO objectively as autistic as BOTH of them and is widely ignored in potentially autistic Pjo characters literally just because she's a black girl and white autistics love pretending we can't be autistic because they wanna play victim against us too
being nice isn't enough, I have to start hitting people with a cartoonishly large mallet when they piss me off
AND HERE COMES GRACE CHASITY WITH A STEEL CHAIR
