We all start with innocence. The world leads us to guilt.

Colt Seavers I’ve always loved you so glad your stupid autistic brother is bringing your movie to light

Look me dead in the eyes and say Colt would quick all sporty/agile activities. Look me in the eyes. I say he wouldnt. I say he'd be all for Wheelchair Rugby in specific. Similar adrenaline rush to stunts, similar competativeness, easy on the back and legs because you're in a wheelchair and not standing up. He'd get fixated on it much to Jody's unfortune. Now she's sitting in a crowd full of sweaty men watching Colt play. After he's all hyper, rolling back and forth in joy, explaining a particularly good "tackle" he'd done.

I also Imagine him to either be an Ambulatory (wrongly spellt, obviously) wheelchair usuer. Occasionally he'd use crutches. But not often. The pain in his back and legs is often too much. Occasionally, he's bedbound and EXTREMELY insecure and sad about it. The first (and last time) he'd ever been a bitch to Jody was during a bedbound period. He always CONSTANTLY apologizes for this. Especially when he's bedbound. He think's he's useless, Jody begs to differ and brings out some form of non-digital entertainment (because Colt has a habit of reading hate-tweets during these periods), and they just sit toghether, because Jody always takes time of for her boyfriend.

Colt does stunts still. If a character in a film is in a wheelchair, and he is fit for it, he'll always jump at the chance. He loves stunts, always had always will, and much to Jody's dismay he will keep doing them. Even if they're incredibly taxing on his body. Even if he always wakes up with a crick in his neck because of them.

Colt still does everything he can to take care of Jody still. Wakes up early, makes breakfast the way he knows Jody likes it, makes coffee (the coffee machine is surprisingly on his side sometimes), and waits for Jody to wake up while reading a book. He loves her, and he does everything he can to not be more of a burden then he (thinks he) is. Jody knows Colt thinks this way and can't stress enough that he isnt a burden. Because he isnt. Because she loves him and her boyfriend is not a burden.

Now, we all obviously love old man grace but would you perhaps consider drawing younger him with a wheelchair as well 👉👈 for us disabled girlies

Do NOT see the new Spiderverse movie if you have any form of epileptic condition or conditions affected by bright lights and rapidly changing colors.

I will not be spoiling the plot or anything happening in it, but it is important that people know, because ohhh my god the AMOUNT of flashing lights and rapidly changing colors from beginning to end was so rampant that even I, a non-epileptic autistic person, got a severe headache and wild overstimulation. They do not give a warning in theaters at all that this movie is NOT epileptic friendly from the literal beginning with the beginning credits - which is so, so sad!

This is a beautifully made film, it's wonderful, it's amazing, but unfortunately, it's not a good time for anyone super affected by bright flashing lights in rapid succession, especially those seizure prone.

I wanted to put this out there BECAUSE there are no theater warnings. Idk if anyone else has put it out there, but it is SUPER IMPORTANT!!!

i feel so seen!!

I would say I am a cis guy, yes, but I really don’t care. I could see myself being a girl aswell (heck I prefer to play feminine characters in video games that allow me to chose), but not in a way would I consider myself trans. Like, I would be fine with any. Obviously I don’t have the experience of being trans, but there is no dysphoria for me. There are things I don’t like about myself, but I feel like that would be the case in any way.

However there is also a giant gap that needs to be filled in trades. As people are aging out of jobs like tailors, carpenters, bookbinders, leatherworkers, etc, there aren't enough young people going INTO the trades to repopulate the jobs.

Kids never grow up telling people they want to be a bookbinder. They don't know they even exist. And schools never ever present them as valid options. And if they do talk about them, they are treated as invalid compaired to NFL Linebacker, President, and Brain Surgeon. After all "jewelry maker" is something people do to supplement their "burger flipping" income, and not an extension of blacksmithing.

For clarification: I'm asking if your parent is diagnosed or undiagnosed autistic. You can answer this poll if you consider yourself on the autism spectrum, officially diagnosed or not.
