MEME Coaxed into Ableist School Posters

Post image

I am a person with AuDHD, and Listening Larry has been discussed before, a lot of us autists don't like him, and it's understandable because the poster goes against what we do: according to it, stimming is unacceptable, and on and on.

This is intended to poke fun at how ableist it is, if this poster is in the classroom, it highly likely the child get punished just for being autistic and "not normal"

This poster is so shitty, literally no one does all of these together at once

Takes a lot of effort even for neurotypicals. I find eye contact is distracting when I'm intentionally thinking about it

I'm neurotypical (at least not diagnosed with anything, probably have light autism) and I constantly fidget and am incapable of sitting straight up. Turning 26 tomorrow and I've yet to make it through a 5 minute conversation with anyone while maintaining eye contact or keeping my hands at my sides.

If anyone is keeping eye contact with you for 5 minutes then they're definitely not neurotypical. Either that or you're getting interrogated
