one thing you need to know about me is that i am constantly having insane galaxy genius ancient greek philosopher level thoughts about everything ever all the time but before leaving my mouth they get filtered through seven layers of autism and come out sounding like a youtube comment made by a nine year old
Is that what that is?!? Is that why i cant vocalize the hot thoughts?

#god I fucking know right #fucking hate the autism filter #(the layer of having to verbalise your thoughts in the first place is one thing) #(but the layer where *even when you know exactly what words you intend to say‚ your mouth won’t repeat them verbatim*? uggghhhh) #that excuse for communication called speech #autism #relatable
it’s an ‘I feel like i’m being gaslit by phonologists’ kind of night again
on some level i feel like i should appreciate the wide range of sounds humans can make with their mouths and that people have put a lot of effort into studying and cataloguing subtle variations within them. i should! intellectually i do.
emotionally i don’t though. i just read about yet another distinction between two sounds that i cannot hear l and i want to grab the entire field by the lapels and shake them vigorously while yelling that it’s the same fucking sound what are you talking about

#this probably deserves some warning tag but I am not sure what #is the blue I see the same as the blue you see #language #relatable #fun wif forn fronting #last night I was‚ once again‚ listening to Of Monsters and Men and contemplating alien qualia
#art #comics #body horror? #fun with loopholes #relatable #definitely in the top 3 reasons to want shapeshifting #nobody can take your stuff from you if it’s embedded in your body
This kind of acausal compliment makes me want to share my Halloween costume from last year:

I like being the kind of boringly self consistent guy who will, across a span of a decade, choose to name the same kind of thing the exact same way, such that my trigger which I hadn’t yet got around to actually implementing will just work by running the script from 2013
