Anybody who’s been following Andrew Hussie’s work for any length of time knows that the guy can’t do endings. I don’t mean that in the sense that he does them badly; I mean that in the sense that he plain doesn’t do them. He’d been involved in several long-form creative projects prior to Homestuck, and with the singular exception of Problem Sleuth, every last one of them just sort of stops without reaching any sort of resolution – and one receives the distinct impression that the only reason Problem Sleuth proved to be the exception is that it had no real plot to resolve in the first place.
It’s clear this is something he’s struggled with during the course of producing Homestuck, and I think today we’re finally getting a glimpse of the solution he’s arrived at: he doesn’t have to figure out a proper ending if it never ends.
I know we like to talk about as autistic kids who’re geniuses with numbers, or beautiful musicians, or incredible artists. But that’s really not the norm. Autistic kids aren’t all savants. I have an autistic sister, and have worked with people on the spectrum, and most of the time you’ll find that autistic people are just autistic. And they don’t have to make up for it by having a brilliant mind. They don’t have to prove their value by being special in certain areas. They’re valuable because they’re people. Don’t spread the idea that autistic people have to be savants. That’s just perpetuating the idea that impairments are something to be ashamed of
Hey jesus we found it, you guys
We found a post that says “my sister is autistic” and “I’ve worked with autistic people,” and it made a good and valid point instead of being full of trash

inktober day 24 - diza, baby form of spinda. it totters around confusedly, never heading in one particular direction. it’s unknown if the spiral on its forehead is a third eye or just a marking.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
