Miles Morales Rules!

I normally don't post stuff like this on my page, but my family really needs help. My Dad put up this page on Go Fund Me to help with bills and everything with our family, since our grandfather is not long for this world. If anyone could help donate or spread this around, that would be super helpful. Thank you so much for reading this page.

This is another practice piece I did to learn digital art about a year ago. At the time, I had just gotten into Shantae: Half-Genie Hero and Dragon Ball. I wondered, "What if Kami during the three years Goku trained with him sent Goku on a training mission in Sequin Land? And then, he and Shantae went on an adventure together?" It became an unmade fanfic idea called, "A Monkey King in Sequin Land," but at least I had this piece done.

To everyone who needs help and is out there fighting the good fight, Happy Pride Month! Right now, we live in a scary time. But, we cannot lose sight of how much we care for each other. We need to look out for each other more than ever, and only when we can do that can we make the world a better place.

This is my first proper attempt at doing miniatures painting. It's from WizKids' Transformers line-up. All of this is the rough base paints right now, but I will show progress as I add detailing.

Definitely me. It's both a fun way to support amateur writers, and it's a great way to practice fiction writing.

I’m curious!

So, something cool. My Dad has been working on a film for the past five years or so. And, it looks like he's posted the trailer on his Tumblr. You can check it out here.

A new teaser for the movie we've worked so hard on. Marbles and Bullets. We could use your help! Tell people about the movie! Let people know that you want to see it. Be a voice that helps us be heard!

Lead life with empathy. That's all I can say. When you lead life with empathy, you can make the world a better place.

ABA is a policy that I definitely do not support. I have beaten myself up some days because I don’t feel “normal.” It still takes talking with my friends and family to realize that I am not supposed to be “normal.” I’m just supposed to be me. I am lucky to know several people who are willing to help me grow and develop my independence and skills rather than try to make me fit the mold.

Hello everyone,

I found an article from the Child Mind Institute that explains the controversies around ABA therapy. Here is a quick read of the article. The full article will be linked below:

Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a therapy that helps kids with autism learn skills and lessen problematic behavior like hurting themselves. There are several different forms of ABA. All are based on the idea that reinforcing certain behaviors will lead kids to repeat those behaviors. Studies have shown that ABA is effective, but some parents and autistic self-advocates do not support its use.

One criticism of ABA is that the earliest version of it used punishments as well as rewards. Punishments are no longer used in ABA, but critics think it is still too hard on kids because it is so repetitive. Supporters argue that modern ABA is often much less repetitive and that practitioners are trained to make learning fun and interesting for the child.

Another criticism is that ABA is too focused on eliminating behaviors instead of building skills. Some practitioners agree that this can be a problem. They emphasize that therapy needs to focus on what kids should be doing, rather than what they shouldn’t be doing.

Finally, some autistic self-advocates say that ABA tries to make kids with autism fit neurotypical standards. They argue that autistic kids have different needs, so they shouldn’t be taught to look and act like neurotypical kids. Some of these advocates says that speech and language therapy is a more helpful way for autistic kids to build skills and independence.

As an Autistic person who spends way too much time researching things, I have to agree that the way Autism Speaks does things is atrocious. Autistic people deserve kindness, love, and respect. Not fear and hatred. I am not ashamed of who I am, and I am happy to just be me.

Fun fact: I’m autistic I’m gonna do a thing inspired by another person

Reblog if your blog is safe for autistic people or is ran by an autistic person!

Thank you so much, G.I. Robot! I hope that Nina and Bride continue to get along well. Hope that you can continue to make friends with them too.

Dear G.I. Robot,

What do you think about Bride? Is she a friend too? Also, do you think she and Nina are getting along well?

Bride appears to be a very mean woman on the surface, but friend Nina has told me she is very nice and I trust her! They seem to get along VERY well, actually! They must be very good friends.
