I Regret To Inform You I’m #actually Autistic Trash.

i don't think people take me too serious when i say i'm legally blind. Like, guys I am legally never allowed to drive, I need assistance with a lot of stuff because I can't see. People both irl and online tend to be like "oh but you're not THAT BAD OFF" it's not a thing of whether my eyes are "that bad off" it doesn't matter, they're still blind. i still use magnifying and screen readers. i'm learning braille because my eyes are getting progressively worse and I'd like to be able to still read.

I may not be totally blind, but that's the thing, a lot of blind people AREN'T Totally blind. Blindness is a spectrum. and i don't think a lot of people realize that. And I'm just as valid in my blindness as someone on the spectrum with better eyesight than me, or someone with worse.

(This is OK to reblog. I hope that sighted people who might read this really get it into their heads that blindness is a spectrum...)

fish by Jacob

@its-or thank you for voting for Oakie!

This is a Zentangle-inspired fish Jacob drew (traditional art, in pen).

If you want us to post more art like this, vote for Oakie here and reply, message us, or like the post linked here to let us know!

So with all the Oakie shenanigans, I have lost (much of) my anxiety around posting my art, including fanart and OCs. The floodgates have been opened XD

Today y’all get to see my silly little robot OC Lian, courtesy of me several months ago arbitrarily deciding that April 10 was her birthday (day she came online/was finished).

She’s young and kinda naive and has autism vibes and wants to learn and do All The Things. Her lesbian moms/creators are a robotics expert with autism and anxiety and an ex-military android with zero fear but Much Trauma, neither of whom have very good social skills, lol. So their kid doesn’t have good social skills either, but unlike her kinda isolated parents she’s very extroverted. Her mode of social interaction is based on my own, aka walking up to random people and being enthusiastically weird at them hoping someone will want to be your friend. (This is surprisingly effective in real life, for anyone wondering). To me she’s kind of like a fanchild for a story and characters that only exist in my own head, in that she’s not even part of the main story, but I wondered “what if these characters had a kid” and then the thought would not leave my brain.

Please vote for Lucina (AKA “Marth”). She’s my blorbo and she’s the reason I first started getting into Fire Emblem. To me she’s badass and cute and relatable and funny all at once and how did they fit this much awesome in a single character. I’m autistic and although her behavior doesn’t scream autism quite as loudly as that of some of the other characters in Awakening *cough cough Miriel* she seems very autistic to me with the overly formal way she speaks, her tendency to take things literally, her general lack of social awareness including a comically terrible fashion sense, and the way she often doesn’t get jokes. She feels personally responsible for saving the world and holds herself to such an impossibly high standard and doesn’t know how to rest or have fun because she grew up in a freaking apocalypse… I just love her so much.

I read this and couldn’t help but think of my mad scientist OC Dr. Kaye, who is very much a Type 1 (cold, calculating, emotionally detached) but has the recklessness of a Type 3 (rat bastard drenched in glowing mystery liquid with a shit eating grin). And she used to be anxious and paranoid… and still gets accused of being paranoid sometimes, because she has no friends and a lot of enemies and has decided it’s entirely rational to carry a gun and know how to use it. She’s a terrible person in general, but she gets a semi-redemption arc and she’s my little meow meow ❤️

I love mad scientists who have more academic knowledge than common sense (because I relate) (this is probably all mad scientists, kinda in the definition).

i love how many different mad scientist archetypes there are. we have like

- cold, calculating, really good at what they do, emotionally detached

- “dear GOD what did i just create”, paranoid, little meow meow

- bastard, rat, would find them drenched in glowing mystery liquid with a shit eating grin on their face, maniac cackling every time something is silly

and of course we have the mix why wouldnt we

I used the poll options to narrow down choices for the ball/toy pit poll

The "Fandom" account on tumblr has posted an April Fool's Day set of polls asking people to guess how many of 3 different kinds of toys and how many toys total are in a container. Using the numbers given in the polls, I've found five possible answers to all the poll questions in which the numbers of each kind of toy add up to the total:

247 crabs + 277 horses + 235 paws = 759 objects total

247 crabs + 277 horses + 249 paws = 773 objects total

247 crabs + 313 horses + 242 paws = 802 objects total

239 crabs + 299 horses + 235 paws = 773 objects total

283 crabs + 277 horses + 242 paws = 802 objects total

Feel free to use this information along with your own (or someone else's, no judgement!) size/volume estimations to make your guesses! Or just guess, there are no rules!

Explanation under the readmore:

Each poll gives four potential answers. Assuming that the correct answers for how many of each object there are and the total number of objects are given as options in the polls, this means that the correct total would have to be the sum of three of the answers given in the polls about the individual objects, one from each poll. There are sixty-four possible combinations of one answer from each of the three four-option individual object polls. (If you start with all the combinations you have when you pick the first answer in the first poll and the first answer in the second poll, there are four potential combinations, one for each choice in the third poll. You have the same four choices and four combinations if you choose the first option in the first poll and the second option in the second, and so on for the third and fourth; this gives four combinations for each of the four choices in the second poll, so there are sixteen combinations for each option in the first poll, giving a grand total of sixty-four possible combinations.) I used a spreadsheet (linked here) to find what each of those sixty-four combinations added up to, then found the combinations which added up to a number that was presented in the "how many objects total" poll.

@theoptimistictabby thanks for voting for Oakie and spreading the word!

These are roughly inspired by my soulless mad scientist OC, Dr. Kaye.
