lilo and stitch did a better job at representing everything s*a tried to do with music and lilo isn’t even “““canon autistic””” 

what lilo and stitch has that music does not: 

  • neurotypical older sister having to parent her autistic-coded younger sister but she respects and validates her sister nonstop 
  • good representation of an autistic child even if unintentional [see autistic people expressing how similar they are to her here- 1, 2, 3]
  • no white ppl in brownface 
  • good music 
  • decent filmmaking 
  • autistic people who like it
  • aliens 

anyway fuck s*a

- Has a strong yet subtle message on the effects tourism has on native Hawaiians

- Villain redemption

- A character coded to be lgbtq without being a stereotype

- a social worker who actually cares about the well-being of the child

- Found Family before it was cool

- A platonic love story which is rare for Disney where two misfits find solace in one another

- autistic coded child treated with respect//allowed to feel heavy emotions and act like a normal child without it being offensive or irritating

I’d argue TWO characters who are autistic-coded.

Lilo is what happens when you support your autistic child. Stitch is what happens when you don’t. Notice how he calms the fuck down and becomes able to weigh actions and consequences once there’s someone in his corner? He stops trying to destroy everything and focuses his energies on protecting the people who are protecting him (and Lilo, not everyone is onboard with Stitch yet). Up to that point he struggles to connect, and so he lashes out, instead.

Also, if memory serves me, the “this is my family” speech is the only time in the movie he speaks in complete sentences. When the movie came out, that was a major goal in autism work (and while today we know that communication may not mean verbal, it’s still hugely important). Finally, with people who love and support him, he’s able to learn to communicate, build a support network, and develop effective coping mechanisms.

anyone have that post that was like “NT writers are great at creating autistic characters but only when they aren’t trying to”

I want a Celebrity Obstacle Course show where all the pretty people can show off their hard stunt work for us and also occasionally eat it, because they need to be humbled sometimes. The judges would be career stunt people, to give them visibility, because they work even harder. Shirts optional.

You wouldn’t even finish the phrase “Celebrity Ninja Warrior” before Chris would start jumping up and doing yelling “Me! Me! Pick me!”

Anyone know how to contact Netflix about this?

friendly reminder Chris did most of his stunts bc the stunt guys couldn’t move like him.

“One thing we found, too, is Chris can run very fast. He also has a very unique run. It’s almost a dancer’s run. And when we tried to double him for running, there was nobody who could run like him. They just didn’t have the same dynamics or the way he moves. He had to end up doing most of his running.”

“What we also found, is that we had gymnasts come in to do things, and Chris could do the same stuff that they could do, but it would look like Chris Evans. When the body doubles or the gymnasts or the runners did it, it just didn’t look like him. He has such a unique way of moving, and he could pretty much do all of his own physical stuff that wasn’t dangerous. Like this shot right here, we had a gymnast do this, and Chris actually ended up doing it better. That’s Chris here. He hops up on a tank and over a 12-foot wall. It looks effortless but it’s not that easy!”

“Chris worked his butt off for four months doing gymnastics and stunt training so in a scene like this he could go toe-to-toe with Georges St-Pierre and make it look really credible. Once the helmet comes off, 95% of that is Chris, except obviously for that massive aerial kick that he does. I think he did a fantastic job.”

The really cool thing about Chris Evans is that he’s a super talented, athletic guy. He retains things amazingly well. I mean, I’m blown away. I can show him a 15-punch fight two times, and he’s got it. - Thomas Harper, Stunt Coordinator, CATWS

“If autism isn’t caused by environmental factors and is natural why didn’t we ever see it in the past?”

We did, except it wasn’t called autism it was called “Little Jonathan is a r*tarded halfwit who bangs his head on things and can’t speak so we’re taking him into the middle of the cold dark forest and leaving him there to die.”

Or “little Jonathan doesn’t talk but does a good job herding the sheep, contributes to the community in his own way, and is, all around, a decent guy.” That happened a lot, too, especially before the 19th century.

Or, backing up FURTHER

and lots of people think this very likely,

“Oh little Sionnat has obviously been taken by the fairies and they’ve left us a Changeling Child who knows too much, and asks strange questions, and uses words she shouldn’t know, and watches everything with her big dark eyes, clearly a Fairy Child and not a Human Like Us.”

The Myth of the Changeling child, a human baby apparently replaced at a young age by a toddler who “suddenly” acts “strange and fey” is an almost textbook depiction of autistic children.

To this day, “autism warrior mommies” talk about autism “stealing” their “sweet normal child” and have this idea of “getting their real baby back” which (in the face of modern science)  indicates how the human psyche actually does deal with finding out their kid acts unlike what they expected.

Given this evidence, and how common we now know autism actually is, the Changeling myth is almost definitely the result of people’s confusion at the development of autistic children.

Weirdly enough, that legend is now comforting to me.

I think it’s worth noting that many like me, who are diagnosed with ASD now, would probably have been seen as just a bit odd in centuries past. I’m only a little bit autistic; I can pass for neurotypical for short periods if I work really hard at it. I have a lack of talent in social situations, and I’m prone to sensory overload or you might notice me stimming.

But here’s the thing: life is louder, brighter and more intense and confusing than it has ever been. I live on the edge of London and I rarely go into the centre of town because it’s too overwhelming. If I went back in time and lived on a farm somewhere, would anyone even notice there was anything odd about me? No police sirens, no crowded streets that go on for miles and miles, no flickery electric lights. Working on a farm has a clear routine. I’d be a badass at spinning cloth or churning butter because I find endless repetition soothing rather than boring.

I’m not trying to romanticise the past because I know it was hard, dirty work with a constant risk of premature death. I don’t actually want to be a 16th century farmer! What I’m saying is that disability exists in the context of the environment. Our environment isn’t making people autistic in the sense of some chemical causing brain damage. But we have created a modern environment which is hostile to autistic people in many ways, which effectively makes us more disabled. When you make people more disabled, you start to see more people struggling, failing at school because they’re overwhelmed, freaking out at the sound of electric hand dryers and so on. And suddenly it looks like there’s millions more autistic people than existed before.

“…disability exists in the context of the environment.”

Why not

I work at a daycare with infants.

One of our baby girls is fat, in the 99th percentile for her age. She is super cute and sweet. Lately, she has been sick with various breathing issues, so she has been reluctant to take her bottles. Normally, she’ll take 4 ounces of formula at lunch and 8 ounces in the afternoon. Today, I was lucky to get to her take 5 all day.

There was a substitute covering a lunch break in my classroom today. We emphasized to her that we need to keep trying to get the baby to drink her bottle until she finished it. She said, “Why are you guys so worried about taking her bottle?”

My coworker replied, “That’s where all her nutrients are. She needs the nutrients and the water.”

To which the substitute replied, “But she’s so fat. She doesn’t need it.”

Thin privilege is a small, pretty baby getting better childcare because the caretaker doesn’t think she’s too fat to be allowed to eat.

This reminds me of a cousin of mine who ended up with her kids being taken away from her by social services for a number of reasons but mostly for nearly killing her baby daughter. How?

By starving her. She insisted that her baby was ‘too fat’ and had an aim to remove any and all ‘chubbyness’ so her baby would be thin. She’d already been warned by her doctor about the baby not getting enough food, but insisted she knew best.

After several months of this her baby passed out cold one day and was rushed into hospital where the doctors found her to have severe malnutrition, a low body temperature and low pulse rate. They asked my cousin what she’d been feeding her daughter and she said “one bottle of skimmed milk a day. I don’t want her growing up fat.”

Even after nearly killing her daughter my cousin maintained her view that fat = bad and ended up with all her kids taken from her because she was starving them and neglecting them.

When your fatphobia leads you to starving your own children then you’ve got serious problems.

(Note. She still, to this day, maintains the view that she was right and the doctors were wrong. “They just want fat kids so they can keep employed treating them for all those diseases that being fat causes.” = her actual words.)

My mom had me dieting with her when I was eleven. She had me eating less than 600 calories a day because she was worried I was going to “get huge.” She even grounded me once because she found out my friends were bringing me lunches! I ended up passing out, going to the ER, and getting two IVs at once BC I was so goddamn dehydrated. Soooooo surprised they didn’t call child services… And looking back, this was the root of my anorexia. I’m nearly 22 and still fighting it. Please don’t starve your fucking children.

For fucks sake babies are SUPPOSED to be fat, what is wrong with people? It’s just stored energy, and growing children need stored energy - an 11 year old is just about to hit some major growing years. Damn. 

Fatphobia

Is

Real

and it kills

This is no joke. people will literally starve their own babies cause they don’t want them getting fat. A parent brought in their six month old baby who was having breathing issues and kept getting sick. the parent was asked if the baby was eating regularly and the parent straight up told the doctor that they only feed the baby once a day. ONCE A DAY. A FUCKING BABY. they even had the nerve to say because they didn’t want the baby to get fat. people like this are real. they would rather have a dead baby than a fat one.

My youngest son is a very big boy and has been since he was born. When he was 10 months old I took him for his well-baby check and vaccinations. The nurse noted his weight and said, quite casually, “He is in the 99th percentile for weight so he is at risk for obesity. You may want to keep an eye on that.” I said, “He is exclusively breastfed. He refuses to eat any solids yet.” What did she expect me to do? What would it mean to “keep an eye on” an exclusively breastfed baby’s weight? 

She backed off saying, ‘Well he looks fine!” – proving once again that weight bias is not truly about health – But I know many other parents who are not as informed as I am about weight science and size diversity would react to this interaction by policing their child’s food intake, if not as an infant, then when he was an older child. This is exactly the type of seemingly-inconsequential interaction that starts the ball rolling on a lifetime of dieting, disordered eating, negative body image, and weight-based abuse for too many fat people.

Years later when he was five, another doctor measured his weight and height and commented that he is off the charts on both, but “at least he is in proportion.” And if he was not “in proportion,” I am sure I would have been advised once again to “watch his weight.” 

I no longer allow healthcare providers to weight my children unless it is absolutely medically necessary. They are unable to control their weight talk, which is a known harm for children.

We need to completely eliminate weight talk from medicine, especially when it comes to children. Even the smallest exposure can have terrible consequences.

Wtf…

A friend from college had been going to the doctor because she was having trouble breathing. She was told to lose weight. Over the course of several years, she went back to the doctors time and time again, telling them that she’d been sticking to the diet but because of her breathing problems she had been unable to even walk for more than 20 minutes at a time. The doctor got her into an exercise programme and told her that she just needed to really try to lose weight because that was clearly the reason for her breathing problems. By the time they found the tumour on her lungs, it was inoperable. She only lived three months after diagnosis. She was 25. She’d had the tumour for over five years. The doctor was so focused on the fact that my friend was “fat”, that they refused to look for any underlying cause. They killed her.

Weight-first treatment KILLS. Fatphobia KILLS.

I have 2 scary stories to share about fatphobic doctors & parents harming their childs/patients’ health:

1. The 4 years old daughter of a friend of mine came to our house to spend the weekend. She gave me a letter from her mom that said that the child was in a glutenfree diet because she was getting ‘awfully fat’ when eating cookies or bread (my celiac ass; who gets dhiarrea and loses a scary amount of weight whenever I eat something with gluten was like ’???’).

You can bet that I went to the supermarket with the kid and told her ‘go & take whatever you feel like eating’ and the poor child came back smiling with her arms full of biscuits and cupcakes.

She didn’t got sick (as a celiac would get) and told me later that she hated the diet her mother made her follow; because her cousins didn’t had to pass through that.

And what’s the scariest thing about this story? Her mother was a NURSE. A fucking nurse who didn’t have a clue of the harm that she was doing to her daughter’s body!

2. My little sister started to feel fatigued and dizzy at 9 years old. She felt nauseated at the sight of food and had abdominal pain that increased with physical activity.

Mom got her to the ER and the doctor dismissed it saying: ‘she’s fat and probably is feeling ill after eating too much burgers, get her to make some exercise and she will be better in no time’.My mom didn’t felt ok with the diagnosis and took my sister with a second doctor who also told her that ‘the child was just fat’.

My sister’s skin was starting to get yellow as the days passed and the abdominal pain was getting awful so my mom (heaven bless her!) got her to the ER for the third time:

SHE HAD STAGE 4 HEPATITIS AND WAS ABOUT TO DIE.

She survived after a long and painful recovery who involved being in bed for a whole year (remember that we’re speaking of a 9 years old child). Luckily they saved her liver and she didn’t went through a transplant… but let this sink:

If it weren’t for my mother, fatphobia would have killed her. Fatphobia kills kids and teenagers, fatphobia kills inocent people everyday. It treats human beings as lesser than others and hurts them in their most vulnerable times.

It’s a real shame that we all have so much stories to share about this issue. A REAL SHAME.

Future doctors, interns, and residents following me:

FUCKING TAKE NOTE OF THIS!

Don’t let bias against your fat patients kill them!

i’d really like my thin followers to reblog this if you can. fat people are already here for each other, we need you guys to help us out too. this is something i never see anyone actually talking about in-depth, and it’s disappointing. be there for your fat siblings, too.

Thoughts on LeFou

There’s been a lot of furore about LeFou in the new, quite frankly amazing, Beauty and the Beast movie. people have raised concerns over the homosexuality of this character and others have said that Disney didn’t go far enough with it (I thought the trans moment with Stanley was actually quite racy by Disney’s standards). 

I thought his new characterisation was one of the (admittedly many) highlights of the film. I love how much depth they gave to this, otherwise quite buffoonish, character. In my opinion LeFou always was gay and very clearly in love with Gaston, even in the cartoon version. Nothing will ever convince me otherwise of that.

The film also gave us an insight into the personal histories of these two characters. Gaston mentions in the ‘Belle’ song that he’s felt lost since the war, and LeFou nods as though he completely gets it. Later, after Gaston has punched Maurice, Lefou calms Gaston down by reminding him to think of the war, the bloodshed and the widows. 

To me this indicates that LeFou was with him in the war. It makes sense because LeFou is constantly by Gaston’s side and, up until the abandonment of Maurice to the wolves, followed him blindly. 

But in what capacity was LeFou in the war? He’s very clearly not a soldier, he’s not inclined that way and he’s not built for it. The way he naturally serves Gaston says to me that this is a long standing arrangement between them. Gaston doesn’t question his servitude and LeFou seems perfectly willing to give it.

I have a theory that not only was LeFou in the war with Gaston, but he was there as Gaston’s batman. As in, enlisted as a soldier, but there as servant to an officer. We know that Gaston holds the rank of Captain as he is refferred to by this title during the course of the film.

The way LeFou is always ready to lend a hand, to fetch him when needed, indicates a serviceman nature. in the pub scene as he is about to launch into the song ‘Gaston’ he starts massaging Gaston’s ears. rather than brush off this gesture Gaston indicates that his shoulders could do with a massage too. He also knows how to calm Gaston down if he starts losing control. They clearly have a fairly intimate relationship although LeFou clearly knows more about Gaston than Gaston knows about him. It’s not that Gaston isn’t interested in LeFou’s life but he’s more interested in himself. In the master/servant relationship the servant does tend to know more about the master than vice versa. 

LeFou’s line in ‘The Mob Song’ is very telling.

“There’s a beast running wild, there’s no question But I fear the wrong monster’s released”

If LeFou went to war with him then he’s seen Gaston in his lowest moments. There must have been times when Gaston’s beast came out in battle. But LeFou is, at this point, questioning his idol’s motivations and character,  and perhaps he is wondering if he was blind to this side of him before.

When I first heard the song i thought LeFou sang “But I fear the REAL monster’s released”. (One of the issues I had with the film was the group singing tended to lose the clarity of the lyrics) This just affirmed for me that the Beast of the title wasn’t really the prince, but Gaston.

A further note.

Their coats also have a military style, but Gaston’s is officer quality/style and LeFou’s is private/batman. This just backs it up.

Muggle/No-Maj

There might be a deeper reason the American Wizards call non-magical folk No-Maj. 

Muggle is 1920′s American slang for a Marijuana user and for the drug itself. 

They wouldn’t call them that because if that word is thrown around the police could be alerted and draw attention to them. 

No-Maj may be a bit of a mouthful but it would have been safer for wizards to use.

After Beauty and the Beast, the characters appeared in cartoons like the House of Mouse, but they were still in their household goods forms! Disney probably felt that kids wouldn’t recognize human Lumiere, so they kept him as a candelabrum afterwards! Disney ruins the lives of home furnishings everywhere!! -Psycho

And also notice how Rupunzel always has her long blonde hair? Beast also appears as the beast. Pretty much all Villains also aren’t dead.

Er, actually, about a minute after I hit reblog I got some very important (and positive) money-related news out of the blue. The system works, guys.

I reblogged this a few days ago and over the weekend the people i was babysitting for gave me a hige tip, my dad gave me a random $40, and i got to keep the change from my haircut appointment

I hate these things so much but look how cute Jackie Chan is <3

IM NOT EVEN REBLOGGING FOR THE MONEY ATUFF JUST LOOK AT HOW CUTE UNCLE JACKY IS ALSO LOOK AT ALL DAT 紅包 啊啊啊啊啊啊啊!幹得好!!!
