Do we really need autism awareness? Who isn't aware of autism? What many people don't know is some of the ableist symbols and language imposed on autistic people by others. Learn more here https://t.co/Qtx3nCeMBp then book your place on our #CripTalks https://t.co/a5kRtT4hQ9
@davidrazi The only literal waifu I've ever had, Lilly Satou of the (free!!!) visual novel Katawa Shoujo. Rin Tezuka is my spirit twin, though. Like we're so close in personality it's crazy. I love that she's Autistic-Coded. I really connected with her. But Lilly was Love At First Sight. ❤

To wrap up this mini thread, here are a few other characters with autistic traits that I've made over the years and have reconnected to recently.
Look at these lovely people, all of whom share something in common - we are #ActuallyAutistic and generally ok with that. It leads us down many artistic pathways where we can excel. Autism - are we a cultural minority? Join the conversation: https://t.co/a5kRtT4hQ9 #EndAbleism

Hey, My name is Techie! I’m a small autistic artist that draws Danganronpa OCs, Among Us, Just Shapes and Beats, and Robots. I am not taking commissions at the moment, but I probably will in the future! https://t.co/5dFMcx3Wks
To answer my own question: Misumi from A3!, (a mobile otome game about running a theater troupe)
I’m on the autism spectrum. Misumi has so many autistic traits, and his fixation on triangles is never seen as a burden.
He makes me feel kinda euphoric about my own autism traits!

#Day18 I can't draw animal faces, I have to train a lot in that sense.
This looks so autistic. Anyway I started with the idea of drawing seriously but at some point I decided that I wanted to end this today so I opted for a less refined drawing.
And it doesn't look good
athena is one of the biggest characters i see as autistic n we tend to have complicated relationships with gender..
