why do stuffed animals cost money bro
bring back the habits that made you happy as a child. there’s no reason you should ever have to give up harmless things that bring you joy. you don’t have to age out of having fun. finger paint. write mediocre fanfiction and questionable poetry. put chocolate chips in your waffles. sing in the bath, and while working in the yard, and while washing your hands. hammer tunelessly on a piano. spin in circles until you fall down. climb a tree. just because you’re now in charge of your life doesn’t mean you’re expected to give up on the things that make life feel worth living
Shout out to my fellow regressors who don't like the usual foods everyone always recommends!! I'm not a fan of mac n cheese and dino nuggets, which most food rec posts contain, I eat more "adult/healthy" things when regressed and I LOVE to cook and can do so without much trouble, even things like grilling and using a stove/oven :)
I know there's definitely other regressors who don't like that stuff too (not to mention the vegan/vegetarian regressors, and the ones with food allergies/those whose disabilities prevent them from eating certain things too!!) and I just want everyone to know that no matter what you eat, you're completely valid!!
Feel free to share your favorite non-traditional foods/recipes in the notes, I'd love to hear and am always up to trying new things :D
I just wanna lie down and color with chunky crayons
where it doesn’t matter if I scribble over the lines
because im far too little to worry
I've seen "I don't know how to play with toys anymore" a few times lately and just wanted to point out-
Playing with toys looks different for everyone, even actual children!
Playing with toys can look like: 🧸🪁🚂
Taking pictures of your toys and writing captions for them
Brushing or grooming soft toys or toys with rooted hair
Ordering or sorting your toys by colour/species etc
Making up stories, poems or comics about your toys
Dressing or accessorising your toys
Imagining your toys talking to you or each other, forming opinions of their own, etc
Drawing your toys
Taking your toys for a walk outside, even in a backpack or pocket if you don't want to carry them openly
Making lists of the toys you have and where you got them etc
Feel free to add your own ideas
i dunno what these are called, but my sister got it for me for my birthday ages ago, and i started playing with it again and it's so fun!! it makes me giggle when it's so slippy and wiggly 😊
☆ can we normalize carrying toys / plushies in public? ☆
as an autistic person that struggles with social anxiety, taking my comfort plushies with me always helps me be more comfortable.
it's not wrong to have comfort items, and we shouldn't be shamed for carrying them around!
