Explanation
Stimboards are a digital sensory board (also known as busy board) that can help people who are autistic (or people in general) to stim or even feel happy when they are overwhelmed or upset. They center around one topic, media, character or color. People additionally added the tone tags "safe/srs" or "unsafe/srs" between safe stimboards and unsafe stimboards.
