not to be not fun or anything but the “autism creature” thing is kinda what started the trend. i feel like ppl are just used to saying “i’m silly” or “i love sharks” and pretending to be autistic cause idk if they think it’s cute, but it’s not. especially the typing quirks and FAKING age regression for fun. it’s not fun, it’s a very scary experience sometimes and it comes from REAL TRAMUA.
