Echolocalia (imitating the walls creaking in knock knock)
Makes connections most people wouldn’t (’These chairs are very far away. Do you have super stretchy arms like Mr. fantastic?’)
Semi-nonverbal (especially around new people)
Space is her special interest
She bolts when things that she doesn’t like
Can’t always control her facial expressions
Info-dumps whenever she gets the chance
Notices details that other miss
Observes and then tries to act on those observations

Okay, Orphan 55 was good and all, people are gonna complain about the ending but tbh it's probably gonna inspire people to do a lot more about climate change, etc, but I have one complaint: Did the writers completely ignore all the prior worldbuilding in the show, some of which was literally in episode two, just to pull the 'Alternative timeline' card!?
Supporting evidence from the series:
Is often driven by empathy, and morals, hyper-empathy present.
13 struggles with socialisation, and had to learn social skills and cues.
Has several intense fields of knowledge - ahem! special interests!
Requires emotional support, and isn’t ashamed of that.
Info-dumps literally 90% of the time in all her adventures!
Excitable as hell, I’m surprised she hasn’t flapped at least once.
Takes great interest in the workings of everything.
13 has a great fondness for people with differences.
Has trouble figuring out emotions sometimes.
Volume control? 13 has never heard of it. Too busy shouting / running.
I’m going to go all out and say 13 is probably also an ADHD icon too.
13 invented analysis and observation- no seriously, she did.
“Still figuring myself out” is the biggest neurodiverse mood ever.
Head-canons:
13′s Tardis has a sensory room 13′s Tardis is a sensory room!
Info-dumps about every subject there is, wait, that is evidence too…
Supports educating ableists, but let’s be honest, 13 hates them all.
13 and Ryan probably vlog about Autism, ADHD, and Dyspraxia.
Ryan joked about a ‘sonic fidget spinner’ 13 wants one now.
Why do you think she wears a swirly coat? Stim. Stim. Stim.
13 loves hugs, but like a cat, she has to initiate the affection.
More evidence tbh, the sonic screwdriver is her comfort object.
I have a feeling 13 has a really messy room in the Tardis.
13 is the epitome of the ‘am I sad?’ ‘oh I was hungry’ experience.
Also, 13 doesn’t wear makeup because it is sensory hell.
13 loves good textures, and aesthetics, that’s just a fact.
I mean, have you seen Dr. Who? 13 can’t not be autistic.

Can anybody point me towards somewhere where I can get a comprehensive summary of the Ingress plot/lore so far?
As somebody who does weight training and whose parents also do weight training, to a much higher degree, and knows quite a lot: The kind of skinny that you get via overly-restrictive diets like keto are unhealthy, and often, these diets don't even work. The healthiest human body is strong, not skinny. To be strong, you need muscle. And to grow muscle, you need three things: Exercise, protein, and calories. The exercise is obvious. Exercise the part of you that you want to get stronger. Muscle will probably grow there if you keep it up for long enough. Protein helps you gain muscle. And nobody ever became an elite powerlifter on 800 kcals per day. Please look up photos of actual powerlifters - NOT bodybuilders. Note how everybody who's actually strong, is also pretty fat. Another big factor is that these overly restrictive diets tend to cut out all the enjoyable foods - so cake, pizza, burgers, and so forth. So these foods become "Forbidden", and therefore more desirable. Eventually, you're going to snap and binge-eat all those foods you've been denying yourself - and gain back all that weight. The ideal diet should have enough calories to at least maintain a healthy body weight, and that's it. Stick to your calorie limit, and free eat otherwise. You've got the calories for that burger, or that KFC, or that double chocolate muffin? Cool! Go ahead! And even then, having a few days where you go over doesn't matter. Most people will unconsciously track their nutrients, calories, and such when given a chance. I naturally default to about 2000 calories per day, myself. This is more than I'd like, but 1800 is enough to maintain a healthy weight and not leave me hungry, so I go for that. HAVING SAID ALL THAT: This is all OPTIONAL. Being overweight or obese is unhealthy, yes, but if you choose to have excessive weight or body fat, that's YOUR choice to make. You shouldn't be shamed for that. It's a choice just like smoking. It's unhealthy, but nobody's ever been denied healthcare because they're a smoker. I choose to follow a weightlifter's diet and do training for the following reasons: - I have the right genetics and build to be a powerlifter from a young age, and I like the idea of that. - I don't enjoy how I look and feel when overweight. - I want to get stronger. Somebody might have different reasons for not tracking calories or exercising. Maybe they enjoy food too much to restrict calories. Maybe they have chronic pain that makes it difficult to exercise. I don't know. Being overweight is, scientifically, unhealthy. But so is smoking, not getting enough sleep, and consuming too much caffeine. Nobody ever went to the doctor and was told to cut out their morning cup of coffee before they could be prescribed life-saving heart medication. Why is being fat any different?
my new roommate said that her last roommate had an eating disorder and then talked to me about her clean eating and weight loss goals and how she buys clothes that are a little snug to motivate her to lose more
and like honestly? i have anorexia but this is why i constantly talk about the dangers of the “health and fitness” industry and diet culture bc we have essentially normalized certain symptoms of disordered eating but it’s ok if it’s under the guise of health i guess???
like how is calling it “clean” eating NOT a way to moralize food
how is intermittent fasting NOT the same thing as skipping meals
how come when i buy clothes that don’t fit, it’s something i have to tell my therapist about because it means i am putting pressure on myself to fit into them, but if a “normal” person does it then it’s just motivation for them?
where is the fucking line???
and more importantly when are we going to start acknowledging that the entire world is pro-ana but that’s too harsh of a description so we slap some health buzzwords on it to make it palatable
when are we going to take responsibility for encouraging disordered behavior instead of labeling those of us with EDs as the crazy/imbalanced ones
your fucking Whole30 or keto or whatever “clean” diet you’re on is just as restrictive as the diets we create for ourselves due to our disorders. but we are the crazy ones, right
Imagine the Avengers suddenly being sucked into the war between the Clave and Valentine
Steve looked between the black haired siblings, “First gods and aliens now demons?” He let out a sigh and ran a hand through his hair.
“Captain Rodgers it’s imperative that you and your team come back to the institute. We need all the help we can get.” Alec, the eldest Lightwood, told Steve. Alec’s eyes roamed the room taking in the sight of the Mundanes mightiest heros.
“I’m not sure how much of a help we’ll be,” Steve begins but Tony cuts him off.
“What Capsicle means is that yes we’ll help you. It’ll be fun.”

Hey people, so, this is kinda a last-ditch effort considering that I've got basically no people following me, but maybe some people will see it via the tags or something. Basically, I watched the documentary series "Don't F*ck With Cats" on Netflix earlier, and I just realised that, well, it was a lot heavier than I bargained for. I don't have any idea why I didn't just turn it off at the time. I've got slight anxiety/paranoia issues anyway, and this really isn't helping. My thoughts just keep drifting back to the documentary/the content of the documentary... Which is very dark. Animal abuse, serial killers... etc. Does anybody have any ideas on how to calm down and stop myself from freaking out over this/stop worrying about being murdered by a serial killer/stop my thoughts from drifting back to the documentary? Thanks so much to anybody that can help. :) PS: Please tell me if I missed any tags that would be suitable here/trigger warnings, or if my trigger warning tags aren't up to standard! (I heard that there are different conventions that change every so often, but I'm not up to date.)

I remember @sensoryseeker used to do something called Stim Toy Saturdays where folks would submit pictures of their favourite stim toys, but that was several years ago by this point. I want to start up something similar to that again, because seeing other people’s stim toys is awesome and great for discovering new ways to stim! Would anyone be interested if I revived Stim Toy Saturdays? I would probably choose a different day though (Stim Toy Tuesday maybe?), but yeah, let me know if there is interest and I will set something up!!!
