A busker plays music for a blind autistic girl sitting in a wheelchair. She’s being allowed to stim (flapping and rubbing her shirt) and respond to the music her own natural way. The busker places her hand on the guitar to let her see what is creating the music, and she smiles as he sings to her.
They made a connection.
That is autism acceptance.
Take note. Many autistic people will open up to you like a flower if you gently connect with them in ways that work for them instead of forcing them to connect with you in ways that only work for you.
I hope that sweet kid grows up to be a musician or artist! 🙂

EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND LISTEN TO THIS RIGHT FUCKING NOW
Why is this a thing that exists?
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL
“on the boooooolovarrrd of brooookennnn dreeeemmsss”
I turned this on and at that moment my roommate opened the curtains, and I immediately had this epic video in my head of us cleaning our apartment, and raising a castle around it with hammers and magic.
I’ve introduced so many people to Gregorian: the best way to do it is to slip it into a normal playlist.
This is the soundtrack of an angel that was thrown out of heaven unjustly and is existing on earth, and being tracked by an adversary, while an angel friend is preparing to come rescue him.
We’re talking about a place that made ‘Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead’ no.1 when Thatcher died. Never underestimate the UK’s willingness to make their opinion known via the music charts.
(Content warning for nudity, sorta – like the people are made of silver or of sand or whatever and they’re not super distinct but they’re naked)
WATCH THIS. Easily the best video I’ve seen in years. It’s not just the effects, but also the exuberance and the weird tension between the canny and uncanny. I LOVE IT.
(Track is Light It Up by Major Lazer featuring Nyla and Fuse ODG)

I was pleasantly surprised with this video and could only think, “More eyes need this… More ears need this… Must share this…”

I think the Surrealists have wandered back through and done a music vid. Wow. @samjohnssonvt@copperbadge@killabeezish I think you guys may want to see this!
