Reblogging to spread the word, cause evidence shows that Autism $peaks are classic horror movie villains.

Reblogging because I’ve always wondered who to support instead of AS.

To every friend of mine who reblogs this, thank you. It means I can trust you. ❤

requested | You are wonderful as you are. Just because you can be misunderstood does not mean you’re wrong. I hope you can embrace yourself for who you are. I hope you know I support you.

No no no no! I’m actually disgusted that this filth ended up on my dash.
How could the staff seriously support this disgusting organization?

As a person with Autism myself, I’m completely appalled that this would even show up on this website. Seeing as a huge chunk of us here are also under the spectrum.
