be cool

You know when someone goes "Oh, you're autistic? You should meet my buddy Ronathon he's autistic you'll love him he's great" and you meet him and he's the fucking worst

And I should clarify the point Im making is not "I'm *special* and *different* and *better*" it's "Autism is not a defining personality trait"

It’s like the same as “oh, you’re gay? You should meet my buddy ronathon he’s gay you’ll love him he’s great” or “oh, you’re Hispanic? You should meet my friend ronathon he’s Hispanic you’ll love him he’s great” or “oh you’re a woman? You should meet my friend ronatha she’s also a woman you’ll love her she’s great” and then they’re always totally different from you. Like, people like to go, oh I know two people with this same weird thing about them so that means they’re the same they should be friends, but that never works because your descriptors don’t define your personality and it’s super annoying that people do that.

This is a good addition but I need to add that I am Delighted you continued to use fake name I pulled from my butt. Like ah shit it’s Ronathan

congrats to Ronatha on her transition, even if she's still the worst

the joy of working with middle school aged children is that, regardless of how long you've been doing it, they will always find novel ways to annoy and confuse you, which is okay because that's the natural state of the middle school aged child. anyway suffice it to say that for the past three weeks of school my 6th grade class has been greeting me at my door by lining up outside of it, playing the national anthem, and saluting me as i walk in.

The cat is so stoked to be there??? What a little star. 💜
