Every disaster movie starts with scientists being ignored. Good thing we’re not doing that.

when i find myself in times of trouble, my comfort ship comes to me 10k words of hurt/comfort on ao3 and in my hour of darkness they are standing right in front of me 10k words of hurt/comfort on ao3

The first person to be diagnosed as autistic passed away last year at 89 years old. Please remember this if you find yourself being hypercritical of “all these people being diagnosed as autistic now”. The first documented clinical autism diagnosis was made less than 100 years ago.

For me, one aspect of being #Autistic means feeling very dysregulated if plans change last minute even though I know objectively nothing bad is happening and it will actually be fine. It’s not anxiety about the future, it’s a state of confusion and disarray because expectations are not fulfilled

The Doctor Who Christmas Special was cute. It was actually really nice to see The Doctor just have a normal friendship for once

“Follow your DREAMS! Do what makes you happy!” 🌈⭐️ Sorry! My dreams have to wait. I got up for a few minutes and now I have to lay down. I’ll try again tomorrow when I’ll do exactly the same thing 💫 #autism #burnout #disability #followyourf*ckindreams 💜

No folx, you’re not a “shit autistic” if you get dysregulated or triggered by something a fellow autistic human does. Us all being autistic doesn’t mean that somehow we all magically regulate each other and create utopia.

A woman who thinks “everyone’s a little bit autistic” has no idea she’s the most autistic woman to ever autism, it has been rumoured. thedailytism.com/were-all-a-b...

#tarotsequenceweekend belated Just a bit I'm working on..... :)

Happy Holidays!

Shout out to all the neurodivergents, heading into a week of over stimulation, no routine, sky high expectations, and non optional socialising. I see you.

Autistic people are all different. Some of us work. Some of us don't. Some of us go to school. Some of us don't. Some of us have active social lives. Some of us don't. Some of are content with our lives. Some of us aren't. Having some or all of those things doesn't make you better.

Nobody has ever dropped a more fire comeback than, “The bar is so low it’s a tripping hazard in hell, and yet here you are limbo dancing with the devil.”

Some #disabilities are visible. Some are invisible. Some disabilities may involve changing between levels of visibility depending on the day and other circumstances. Some people have both visible and #InvisibleDisabilities. Today on #IDPD lets remember that disability comes in infinite variety.

The #Autistic tendency to think that if something was good it will always be good, and if it was bad it will always be bad.

Hey autistic friends, if you have to be around a bunch of people who don't know you're autistic tomorrow and don't want to explain to them you are having sensory overload or whatever? Just Say It's A Migraine. 90% of the time allistics will be very kind if you Just Say It's A Migraine. Lying works!

If you make small movements to help regulate yourself, then you might be #Autistic.

I'm at that age where I have to double-check every text message I send to make sure I haven't, say, asked my boss to take out the trash by accident.

Wo feiert die CDU ihre Wahlniederlage? In einer Merzweghalle. (Marc-Uwe Kling, Kinderbuchautor)

I was autistic when I was a “quirky” kid who didn’t get a referral. I was autistic when I said “I can’t possibly be autistic.” I was autistic when I was evaluated and misdiagnosed. I’m autistic now. Every autistic person is autistic before they get “officially” diagnosed.

Censorship today is often an algorithm quietly deciding whose voices matter less. To counter this, we need tech literacy, resilience, and solidarity.

Wo die Heidi Recht hat, hat sie Recht.. (Man könnte ja annehmen, er sei schwanger im Kopf, aber da sind dann andere Ärzte für zuständig.)

Today, gently contemplating a family doctor who hasn't the slightest idea what the criteria is for an autism diagnosis. It's a sensory and social communication difference, Doc. We didn't get a diagnosis for 'misbehaving'. Sigh. nypost.com/2024/11/14/o...

This “high functioning” autistic is “low functioning” today. See how that works? Stop using functioning labels. We aren’t machines.

If you have the AUDACITY to play video games on "easy" or "story" mode... I want you to know that I think that's a perfectly acceptable way to enjoy a video game that you paid for because you're supposed to enjoy your favorite pastime any way you like. Real life's hard enough. Enjoy your hobby.👍

I've been working on a short story for my Patreon, framed around a memorial service. It wouldn't fit into the 1st chapter Tarot IV. You may see me posting more on BS. I'm just not comfortable sharing on Morder, I mean Twitter, I mean X anymore. Their privacy policies are highly suspect.

I wish I could believe this was satire. We are living in the stupidest timeline…

Da ich es mir heute (schon wieder) mit den Heilpraktikern verdorben habe. #Globukalypse

I have been back to thinking about how violent the turn "back to normal" is in the context of those of us who have never been normal. Such a message that we have never and shall never belong in society.

Wenn wir mit der Politik der Grünen hadern, ist in diesem Moment die EINZIGE Frage, die wir uns stellen sollten: "Ist es besser als CDU/AfD?" Und wenn es besser ist, dann wählen wir diesmal grün. Um alles andere kümmern wir uns in 4 Jahren.

Programming note- the more fatigue builds up, the worse my dyslexia gets. If my typing is weird, that’s why. I’m officially maxed out on my ability to process certain kinds of info. Do not assume I’m retaining ANYTHING, up to and including remembering what day of the week it is.

Non-autistics may mean well when they say "we're all on the spectrum," but to an autistic person, "it can sound like you’re not just finding common ground, but dismissing what makes us different, and the difficulties that come with it." By @ferrousmu.bsky.social: oolong.medium.com/everyone-is-...

Discworld QOTD, from The Light Fantastic “Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not least of which was that men didn't take you seriously until you'd actually killed them, by which time it didn't really matter anyway.”

Of course I liked when I didn't have to wear a mask better, but masking as much as possible when I'm around people is what makes most sense to adapt to times when a dangerous contagious virus is all around us & has been such a minor adaptation in the scheme of things.
