TismTasm

A "TismTasm" is when an individual has a tantrum fueled by their "tisms" (short for autism). The "Tasm" is a modification of the word "spasm" by alliteration to better match with the word "tism".

Overall a TismTasm is a spastic tantrum fueled by mental retardation. The individual may be screaming incoherently, throwing and/or breaking things, and not being able to communicate properly with those trying to calm him down.

'tism

A term used ironically as self-deprecating humor by individuals on the autism spectrum as a way of reclaiming their identity from being pathologized. The use of the term makes autism sound like an antiquated, old-timey disease, reflecting society's biases against neurodivergent folks back at them.

Tism Rizz

Tism rizz is Autistic traits being mis/interpreted as flirting or an overstated interest. Often results in people having crush’s on the tism rizzer while they have no idea. Examples include: intense eye contact, looking at lips to lip read, body language showing interest in conversation, being thoughtful, stimming and just masking traits in general. Popularised by the tik tok audio by Rain Stern, many examples of autistic peoples experiences with the tism rizz can be found under the hashtag #tismrizz.

A darker side of this that has to be acknowledged is the higher rate of sexual assault experience in autistic individuals. A misinterpretation is not consent, if it’s not an enthusiastic yes it’s always a no and your natural/unmasked behaviour is never, in any way asking for anything.

Tvisha

A gorgeous person, with beautiful eyes. Can be clumsy, but carries themselves with elegance most of the times. Most probably wears glasses. Can be a little awkward in social situations, but that just makes them even cuter to others and fun to be around with.
