Also, am I the only autistic here who hates watching movies and television?

They always abuse my senses, yet everyone loves them and doesn’t care how I feel about it and they seem not to care about my autism either because they play painful movies all the time and without acknowledging my needs.

I suspect they think watching movies all day every day is supposed to be therapy for me but I try to watch movies on my own and they all abuse my senses and then they play those exact same movies I watch because therapy.

Rarely do I watch movies anymore because of my senses being assaulted and my needs as an autistic person are constantly neglected by either people who like entertainment or people who think entertainment is also therapy.

At the very least, my dad is a moviegoer and he understands better than any human authority figure I know that I cannot handle movies no matter what I or someone put on.

And then people attack my autism as well.

Or they coax me into recognizing my actions against my will when my autism makes me different than anyone anywhere in the world.

Because it’s not about living with a neurological difference, it’s about being forced to behave normally when there’s no such thing as normal for people everywhere I go.

Sorry, I went on a tangent, but you understand.

    You would hate The Amazing World of Gumball then: an overwhelmingly absurd sitcom marketed towards kids despite being awful and inappropriate for younger children.

    Since it raked in the ratings like all the other young adult shows on the network also being marketed towards kids, I’m not surprised.

    One episode had Gumball and Darwin taking over a medical procedure on two balloons and blaming one of them for being ungrateful as soon as the victim realizes what he just did and then the whole episode just cuts out.

    And that’s how I stopped watching Cartoon Network despite watching other shows that should’ve been filtered from the lineup.

    Cartoon Network was originally known for classic cartoons like from Warner Bros. or Hanna Barbera and other good shows, not young adult sitcoms made for children.
