i wish platonic abuse was more openly discussed because i think it’s different from standard bullying in social groups. like abuse isn’t unique to romantic relationships. you can still be psychologically, emotionally, or physically abused in friendship too.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi you literally contributed nothing & just wanted to start shit and act like a mean girl. you’re Way too comfortable using slurs against autistic people. get over yourself.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi if it’s not attached & she didn’t acknowledge it, that’s not my problem. i don’t follow the person i replied to, that one tweet just came up on my feed. all she had to say was “you misunderstood me” not “you are slow.” we already discussed this hours ago.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi girl you’re jumping into a conversation that ended hours ago. where we already kinda discussed this. she actually Does need to reference it if she wants people to know that’s what she’s referring to and not an entirely separate point about autistic women!

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi i already hashed this out with the person i replied to. who insisted on calling me slow instead of saying “hey you misunderstood me.” again, her not being specific enough isn’t my problem. there’s no mention of dana’s tweet in this particular convo.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi she didn’t reference the tweet you think she’s talking about at all when quoting the thread about autistic women. what don’t you get about that?

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi the context wasn’t provided by the author in any way. she quoted the thread about autistic people. so yeah that’s what it looks like she’s commenting on. that’s how context works.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi this is what i saw. this is all the tweet is. her not providing that context or correctly attaching it as one thought is not my problem. it’s not the source tweet in this particular instance.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi you don’t even understand how quote tweets work so let’s not imply anything like that.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi well that’s not what she quote tweeted so i responded to what i saw. i think you’re stretching this a bit.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi it still doesn’t give her the right to call people slow??

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi it literally is? wtf?

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@bakedinottawa @jigsawbambi ??? You’re not aware of what you’re discussing?? it literally is the quoted thread? hello?

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

women in stem 🚫
women in autism ✅

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

could they have come up with a better name… FAP theory??? come on

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@meeliorismo this incredible thread talked about that!!

[the ACPs biggest hater @Novanamix]

Women who don’t struggle with friendships due to neurodivergence just don’t know that some of us are disliked before we have even said a single word, our vibes are literally enough to be written off by other women. There’s a study that shows that autism in people is noticed

@enid_2022 yes!!!!

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@MageVivika yeah unfortunately common for us

@imthescorpihoe i think it’s natural to feel uncomfortable with criticism. i don’t blame them for that. but it just confused me on the basis of my opinion being requested & not me just giving unsolicited criticism.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

you’ve committed the social crime of acknowledging something negative. 10 lashings.

[Callum Stephen (He/Him) @AutisticCallum_]

The autistic experience of being misperceived as complaining when you’re just nonchalantly describing something you’ve experienced.

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

@imthescorpihoe someone once asked me to listen to a song they made and tell them what i thought about it. all i said was “i really like it but [insert useful criticism here]” and they got angry with me. it confused me bc they wouldn’t benefit from a lie, i wanted to help them.

if you receive more love or support from strangers you don’t really have friends.

[Genie @lettersfromjuno]

People will like you more when you’re a loser who hasn’t found themselves yet. And I don’t say that because I don’t think there’s anything wrong with failing from time to time. When you know yourself, your circle gets smaller and so does your support system.
