Yes, you did label people when your were younger too… Just instead of Autism/ADHD/etc., they were labelled “disruptive”, “stupid”, “difficult”, “problems”, and all sorts of slurs (even more than they are today).

1. It frustrates me when people perpetuate negative stereotypes. 2. I'm also not keen on childish innuendo for the sake of it. That is all.

Disabled and disability aren't slurs. There is no shame in being disabled or part of the disability community. Trying to avoid using the words disabled or disability puts shame on the words and is actually ableism and eugenics. Knock it off.

The feeling that you've been masking for so long and in so many different environments that you don't know which one is the real you anymore. Apparently it's quite normal for autistics to suffer an identity crisis when unmasking. We also grieve who we were and who we might've been. #autistic

Wise man…

I need a break from US politics.

We're reading Big Swiss. I'm thinking Stacy was from Yorkshire the way that accent is written. 😂 Please say he's from Barnsley or something. 😂 #booksky

Therapy session today. I mentioned something about black and white thinking, and I've often thought of myself as someone who didn't think in absolutes, but when it comes to racism, homophobia, sexism & ableism I will absolutely cut you out of my life if you come at me with that shit.

This is my reminder and now yours! Put phone down, stretch, get something to eat and drink, rest or so something you enjoy! Our spoons are precious and should be protected! #autistic #adhd #spoonrecovery

A quiet start, and then a mad rush! But first book of the day was "Bookshops & Bonedust". For fans of this series, the third one, "Brigands & Breadknives" is available for pre-order right now! - Michael

I hate windy days

As America descends into dystopian chaos I really hope it will leave the rest of the world alone to live how we want and be comfortably detached from the madness. Unfortunately that's not how fascists work. Everyone has to do it their way, or else they're wrong and 'dangerous' & must be stopped. 🤦🏻‍♂️
