a girl bullied me in middle school for being “annoying and a spazz” (read: autistic). she’s going into psychology now.

a girl bullied me in middle school because i was shy and awkward and easy to take advantage of. she’s now a mentor in the link program that matches up allistic students with autistic students to be their mentor.

a girl bullied me in high school for my comprehension issues, poor social skills, impulsiveness and inability to understand social cues (all autism symptoms). later that year she did a project on autism and talked about how ~*~honored~*~ she would feel if an autistic person wanted to be friends.

allistic people talk so much about how cute and endearing autistic people are but the moment they meet an actual autistic person they’re like “what the FUCK is that?”
