“Dead End: Paranormal Park” and “Heartbreak High” Are for Autistic Queer Girls

Seeing Norma’s and Quinni’s nuanced portrayals of autistic queer teen girls heals the confused, scared, and incredibly lonely autistic queer teen girl I once was. And I’m so damn happy so many others are also feeling the same way.
