I’m amazed at the reaction here, I’m not sure the last time I even noticed one of these while wearing a shirt.
If you approached me with this thing I’d bite off your fingers.
This is painful to look at. I would start to fix it by braiding the strings together.
I can feel this and it’s making me squirm. TIHI.
Can’t even put it on the right direction, sheesh.
I think the little dangling threads really put this over the top for me.
I feel delightfully squirmy, but not in the fun way.
Not kink-shaming, but I think this transcends anything short of genuine torture.
Im not autistic, but that looks awful lol
There’s no way this is an autistic only trait right? You’re telling me people just go around dealing with those things?
There’s a difference between “that’s a bit annoying” and “I literally can’t think of anything else and I must tear off the tag even if I destroy the shirt and I mean RIGHT now or I’m getting naked”
She’s wearing it inside out.
Which way is the rear? I tell that by the tag. (Yes, I add tags to clothing that doesn’t have them, except socks)
It’s that or the shirt with a syrup spot that’s always at least a little sticky no matter how many times you wash it (and somehow never in the same exact place so don’t bother trying to get used to it). Rather back-stroke my way through a mile of tangled concertina wire.
twitching just looking at this
one shudders to imagine what inhuman thoughts lie behind the creator’s face…
what dreams of chronic and sustained cruelty?
Is It just be that loathes the word “autist”? Gives me real “Oriental” or “the blacks” vibes
In my experience living with an autistic husband and having working with many autistic people, they don’t mind the word at all and use it themselves.
As an autistic person with several autistic family members, friends, and associates, I’ve never met someone who used it or liked it
Perhaps it’s a US vs UK thing? I’ve only seen US and Canadian people use it, in the same way that I’ve only seen US people use the term “blacks“ when referring to black people
It has that connotation to me. And the fact that it’s the term of choice to use as an insult in places like 4chan and other edgelord spaces doesn’t help
Seems like it’s one of those things like “autistic person be ”person with autism“ where there’s no consensus within the community
