always the tone of surprise

All right, Shizuku, go ahead and do what your heart tells you. But it’s never easy when you do things differently from everyone else. If things don’t go well, you’ll only have yourself to blame.

Rise and shine! Can’t you think of anything new to say? Every morning, it is the same thing.

THE X-FILES (1993-2002)

“Grandma, it’s me, Anastasia!”

neurotypical older sister having to parent her autistic-coded younger sister but she respects and validates her sister nonstop 

good representation of an autistic child even if unintentional [see autistic people expressing how similar they are to her here- 1, 2, 3]

no white ppl in brownface 

good music 

decent filmmaking 

autistic people who like it

aliens 

- Villain redemption

- A character coded to be lgbtq without being a stereotype

- a social worker who actually cares about the well-being of the child

- Found Family before it was cool

- A platonic love story which is rare for Disney where two misfits find solace in one another

Lilo is what happens when you support your autistic child. Stitch is what happens when you don’t. Notice how he calms the fuck down and becomes able to weigh actions and consequences once there’s someone in his corner? He stops trying to destroy everything and focuses his energies on protecting the people who are protecting him (and Lilo, not everyone is onboard with Stitch yet). Up to that point he struggles to connect, and so he lashes out, instead.
