I'm looking into work coaching and I'm moving house soon but everything could have been so much easier and so much better if someone just gave it a chance

working with only neurotypical people who use the hierarchy like its the bible and living in a situation where I can't say when something is wrong and I get stared at and ignored if I do something wrong has really done a number on me

oopsie made a woopsie!

love u toasty 💖

but I would rather be like me than like other people. there are so many reasons why. autism makes my life really hard but when it comes down to it I wouldn't like to be without it.

it is hard never knowing who to trust and just praying that the person you're telling your secrets to won't tell anyone who will use it to hurt you even if that person is your best friend. I never know if people like me or want to talk to me so I just try my best and hope I didn't get it wrong again

oh and I did tear up one time but it was because I never thought I'd hear that song live and it was very emotional. here is a cool photo of their bass player :)

it might seem silly but when I'm at my lowest and everything is too much for me I can listen to this band and feel like there is something in the world that I can understand and handle. I'm nothing like them but I feel so connected to what they create. I'm so grateful.

update: did not seek out frog as we were too busy eating Korean corndogs. I've been feeling super cringe about this little thread but it felt exactly how I expected and it was one of the best nights of my life.

I've also been following their tour via reddit and they've put this giant froge up in every city they've been to so I'm gonna seek him out before we go hehe (the tiny man is their drummer)

I usually cry when I go to concerts because the artist has usually helped me through a really hard time. I don't think I will cry at this one. I think I will feel safe and at home, nostalgic for the old songs and excited for the new ones.

people used to make fun of me for listening to them and being so obsessed with them to the point where my best friend didn't even know I liked them till about 6 months ago. it's been so healing showing them all of this incredible music. I really, really love this band. I love them to my core.
