![A single square image of a drawing where a tired looking shadowed figure huddles under a mountain of various colored desaturated blankets, pillows, and stuffed animals, on top of a bed in a blank room. The slanted window behind them shows a less saturated, slightly brighter, nice spring day with a pink and blooming tree against a pale blue sky. The silhouettes of shades (or blinds) are drawn at intervals over the window, making the light that has been cast onto the bed and onto the floor of the dark, blank room striped. Crowded above the bed, and above the tired shadowy face, are floating pointy white boxes of various ableist speech, with the lightning bolt shaped tails of the boxes pointing off in various directions. The various speech boxes say: "...Autism Drive for Autism Speaks [heart symbol]", "A.B.A. does wonders!", ", Look at these puzzle peice shirts! [puzzle peice shirt]", "My child has autism so...", "[hashtag] Light it Up Blue!", "Awareness month... [awareness ribbon symbol]" At the bottom of the image, beneath the bed, is white text standing out against the darkness that says: "Wake Me Up When April Ends"](https://64.media.tumblr.com/1e568d583ca375b054fa891720fe374f/d5c8ce214ffcdb16-9e/s640x960/c36a0bbbaa155402334adfd5e62077ca4b08792e.png)
