stimming during full moon!

BEHOLD:

The Allistic Puzzle Piece.

Since Allistics have decided to represent us with blue/multicoloured puzzle pieces, I’ve decided that we should represent them with white puzzle pieces.

Reasons:

1. Because they aren’t on the spectrum 2. Because they like to blend in to one another 3. Because they are so hard to read/figure out.

What do you think? I’d like to see your ideas.

Introducing Koax Cards, your new tool to avoid social interaction, awkward idleness, or to look busy while doing nothing at all. Designed by an autistic person who was tired of feeling like they had nothing to do while in public, these cards entertain and distract your eye while you’re waiting, bored, or simply doing nothing. There are a lot of lulls coming up this summer and this is a simple, easy, cheap way to fill the void. 

They are based on the autistic behavior stimming – self-stimulation – and come in five engaging styles: follow the arrows, pareidolic circles, count the dots, pareidolic curves, and count the lines.

“Koax-Koax” is the verbal stim the creator uses to concentrate when they drew the designs, so the name in and of itself is a tool for relief. They’re helpful to autistic people, those with social anxiety or ADHD, or anyone who’s ever been in public and had nothing to do. They are business sized and blank on the back, allowing for discretion. You can trace the shapes with your eyes, connect the dots, find the faces, or do anything else you can imagine. They grab no attention but yours.

Please reblog even if you can’t buy! I, the creator of Koax Cards, was evicted for being autistic, and this is a culmination of months of work for a coping tool for everyone, neurotypicals and divergents alike. For autistic people, this is a great way to stim discreetly in public, and for everyone else, this is a much-needed piece of equipment to fill idle moments.

twiddlestix review!

i recently got this fidget at a yard sale type thing in my town. i noticed it because it was colorful and seemed fidgety and WOW is it so good!! it’s basically got these plastic bits and gears so you can spin them and move them around. it’s made by hoberman inc and is called the twiddlestix snowflake keychain. i really love this toy so far, it’s super sturdy and fits perfectly in my hand so it’s both discreet and a full stim. i did some poking around online but i can’t find a single place to buy it. if anyone can find something, please let me know.
