There are real autistics on Tumblr. We have an active, thriving community, tags only we use, friendships amongst ourselves, ties to fandoms and interest groups. We give each other information, support. Most of us are not thrilled about the video. It is an attempt to recognize one of us for doing something good. It could be better, though. She is not necessarily doing a good thing despite her autism. Most of us would rather see her described as a fine, young musician who happens to be autistic. She should go through life with her talent recognized, not as a token person with a disability.
Oh god, what happened? Am I gonna have to deal with flak from this?
what video did she do ?
This post is really confusingly worded. For a minute there I thought it was implying that Katy Perry was autistic.
