My Wife: (having a flare up of her newly diagnosed autoimmune liver disease) "You have no idea what this is like." Me: (with celiac disease) "You're right. I know absolutely nothing about autoimmune diseases that randomly activate in your 30s and reshape your entire life." 😒

Never forget. #shame #baddog #dogsofbluesky #shibainu

There are two wolves inside you... The two wolves inside me: #twowolves #shibainu #dogsofbluesky

me: (*walking) bean: (*races to be directly under my feet) me: "Must you, Little Bean? Must you?" bean:

Does anyone else ever stop and think about how much better life would be if everyone wasn't carrying around the generational trauma that comes with female oppression? #feminism #matriarchy

Being An Autistic AFAB in A Neurotypical World: Me: "I gotta get out of here. The smell of that raw chicken is gonna make me vomit." Person: "Ash, you're all the way across the room. I can barely smell it and I'm preparing it. What are you, pregnant or something?" Me: "Nope. Just autistic."

Me: (finds small Jesus figurine in public) Deeply religious MIL: (handing it to my 2yo great niece) "Look, baby. Can you say I love Jesus?" Great Niece: (throws small Jesus on the ground) MIL: 😰 Me: "Yes, my little demon baby! Rise from the ashes! Reject authority! Hail Satan!" 😈

Okay, but why are they out here looking like #jackandrose from #titanic while #myheartwillgoon is played in the background by a 6-year-old on a recorder? #shibainu #dogsofbluesky

She looks at you like this, what do you do? #dogsofbluesky #shibainu #cutie

Weird social lesson I've learned while having celiac: No matter how many times you say "No, thank you. I can't have that. I have celiac disease." Everyone is still always going to offer you bread. Always. 👀

Little Bean's a #pirate Arg! The saltiest little sea dog I know. It's a pirate's life for Bean. 🏴‍☠️ #catsofbluesky #petsofbluesky #tuxie #tuxedocat #trouble #salty

So you mean to tell me that I've spent the last 3 decades raw dogging AuDHD in a world where everything sounds like 15 different radio stations playing at 50 volume all at once inside a tin can and you think my problem is that I "just don't listen too good?" #audhd #actuallyautistic #autism #adhd

Any takers? She's free. And very bad. #catsofbluesky #tuxedocat #tuxie #badcat #kittens #kitty

"Wait. If you're Italian, then why don't you carry pasta around with you like people from Italy do?" Me: (pulling a handful of rigatoni from my pocket) "But...I do."

My wife said "don't hang that flag." But what I heard was "you're a pirate and can do whatever you want. Be gay, do crime." #lgbtqia #lgbtq #lgbt #begaydocrime #pirate

Some of y'all have never watched A Bug's Life and it shows.

Having a bad day? Here are some photos of my girls in their little bows. 🫶🏻 #shibainu #dogsofbluesky #shiba #pupper #holidays #beautifulgirls

When you smell your own paw and it is...offensively stinky. #tuxedocat #catsofbluesky #stinkycat #kitty

We've been watching #helluvaboss because we are huge fans of #hazbinhotel. And I caught Little Bean watching intently with us and asked her what she thought of the show. This was her reaction:

Small autistic boy riding on the swinging pirate ships ride at Ren Fest: "I'm gonna stab you! I'm gonna stab you!" Person Beside Me: "Oh my. I believe that small child is screaming that he's going to stab you." Me: "Meh. I've met me. I'd want to stab me too."

A poem. By me. For the neurodivergents. Written before the time of AI apps:

Random Notes in my Phone w/ 0 context: 1) 17in 2) Song titled Bean’s Chubs Are in the Way And She’s Angry 3) When it’s raining it feels like it’s raining everywhere 4) Break in inspection at 600 miles I have no idea what any of these mean. But I wrote them. 💁🏼

No one: My echolalia once every day for absolutely no reason: "Nah. Nah, it's not funneh. I've got sküüel." #autism #actuallyaustistic #asd #echolalia

Get you a girl that looks at you like this... #shibainu #dogsofbluesky #prettiestsmile

My wife said I can't play our DnD campaigns as 3 raccoons in a trenchcoat because I should try being something other than what I am in actual real life. But she doesn't fkn control me. I do what I want. 🤷🏼 #chaoticneutral

We have a constitutional right to practice religion freely. This includes Agnosticism and Atheism. Which means that I have a right to NOT believe in your God or any God. And any law that takes away my rights based on YOUR religious beliefs is against my constitutional right to religious freedom.

I've been told that sitting through one of my stories is like having your brains cracked free of your skull by an iron mallet that has hundreds of green apple warhead candies glued around the head. #writer #author #chaos

Turn. The volume. Up.

Sometimes I create extraordinary works of art and I don't know if I'll ever share them with the world because I might be the only person who will ever truly appreciate them for what they are.

We have a rule in our house. If moms have to tell you more than three times to "leave it" then you have to wear the "donut do that." This is our most current offender. #shibainu #dogsofbluesky #coneofshame #donut

Here's my angy Calcifer pumpkin carving. Happy Halloween. 🎃 👻 #halloween #howlsmovingcastle #calcifer #studioghibli

Me: "Everyone always thinks I'm a little boy. But I'm NOT a little boy. I'm big boy. I'm big man. I'm big dog!" Me (actually irl):

Me: (making my morning cup of coffee in an uncomfortably yet undoubtedly autistic manner — no I will not explain. Other autistics know EXACTLY what I'm talking about) My Wife: (watching me do so) 😍😍😍 "You're so cute." 🥰 #actuallyautistic #autism

Idk what religion this is, but I'm interested. #catsofbluesky #catsofbs #japanesebobtail #calicocat #religion

I don't think words can fully express how tired I am of late stage capitalism.

The autistic experience of people liking the idea of you and/or the one thing you are gifted at due to your autism, but not really liking YOU overall as a whole person. #ActuallyAutistic #Autism #ThisIsWhyIHaveSocialAnxiety

This is probably gonna be a big surprise to a lot of you, but... The rapture already came. You didn't make it. 😈

They want a civil war so bad because they're still not over losing the last one.

Jesus was not a Capitalist. Jesus was not a Republican. And I, a proud atheist, live a life that is closer to Jesus than you will ever be. #Christianity #Capitalism #Socialism #Religion

Guess who's back in the cone of shame because herm peet got a booboo and she won't leave it alone so it can heal... #shibainu #dogsofbluesky #dogsofbs #coneofshame #shiba #pupper #doggo

He wouldn't want us to mourn. He wouldn't want you to express empathy for his family and friend's loss. He didn't believe in it. Those were his wishes. And if you really wanted to respect the dead, then you would honor those wishes.

"This will reset your nervous system." "This will reset your nervous system." "This will reset your nervous system." Me: (*tries it) Me: "This does t-diddly bumblefuck shit."

I like how they say that as if the inbred monarchy from 249+ years ago weren't also really fucking dumb.

Watching old reruns of Supermarket Sweep from the 90's and seeing people have 3-5 shopping carts full of groceries that total up to $300-$400 when I just spent $300 on roughly 4-5 bags of groceries is one of the most singularly depressing moments of my entire life.

Ah yes. The rare shibredinu panda. #snuggly #shibainu #dogsofbs #dogsofbluesky #redpandas #shiba #cute #cutiepie

New house. New coffee bar. Same #triforce table. ☕️🐸 #coffee #nerdlife #home

Hot takes by Ash: Maybe we [the homosexuals] should band together and make marriage between a man and a woman illegal. It's past time really. They've been out there destroying the sanctity of marriage since the very moment marriage became a thing. 🤷🏼
