Thanks so much. If you liked my apperance on CNN, you can buy my book here. #Booksky #AutismAcceptanceMonth #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticAuthors #AutismAwarenessMonth www.harpercollins.com/products/wer...

I wish RFK Jr would spend some time eliminating REAL public health crises like school shootings, instead of wasting time trying to "fix" #ActuallyAutistic people who aren't broken.

This headline is so insane, I thought it was @theonion.com www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-...

Grounded the coffee, cleaned the pot, put in a clean filter, added the water. Forgot to put the coffee grounds INTO the filter. Burnt out much?

With people working flexible schedules across time zones and schools flip-flopping between 7:30 am and 9:00 am start times, who is changing the clocks really serving anymore?

DOGE proving once again that the easiest way to cut costs is to simply stop paying your bills. What's the limit for DOGE employee credit cards, I wonder? fortune.com/2025/03/05/d...

The official White House Instagram account posted a picture of Trump as king. Why is there not more outrage?! Someone convince me that this does not meet the legal definition of treason.

Looks like addressing starvation and global food shortages in times of climate change are not on the administration's list of priorities. 🙄 I'll just be over here reading about how families survived the Dust Bowl, thanks. capitalpress.com/2025/02/17/d...

USA: I've appointed the most knowledgeable fox to inspect all the eggs. Full access to chicken coops to ensure no corruption.

All these "efficiency mandates" are wasting a huge amount of my time.

What is missing: it's often unallowable to use direct costs to pay support staff and pay for lab space, so the ONLY way to cover those costs is in indirect funds. This includes the accountant, often the costs of computers, electricity to keep medication refrigerated... www.axios.com/2025/02/08/n...

Does anyone else #ActuallyAutistic ever put their shoes on their feet and then hours later wonder why they aren't wearing shoes because they have no memory of taking them off? (Where the f*** are my shoes?!)

If the federal government includes words like "women" and "female" in the DEI word ban, does that mean Trump and the Republicans can't talk about women anymore? #silverlining

WTAF?! May anyone whose research is suppressed find publication in a foreign journal. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

At the car dealership waiting for a recalled part to be repaired. Do any other #actuallyautistic folk really struggle with being in a dealership?! It's SO LOUD. Music, doors slamming, echoey, team building chants with clapping (why?!)... Just, so loud.

It takes longer to say "double you eye pee" (WIP) than "work in progress." #anti-acronym

I just told my kid to brush her face and export the laundry. Words are so much harder when I'm sick. #ActuallyAutistic

Thanks for the advice to give up my daily cup of coffee to pay off my student loans, Dad! With this tactic, I can have my loans paid off in a breezy 41 (more) years!* *assuming 0% interest for the life of the loan

Can't control any aspect of my life right now so I'm binge watching planner release videos to cope. #ActuallyAutistic

Do you think the American government systematically instilling doubt in the scientific community during the last administration might have anything to do with fewer people pursuing a career in research?

No, self, you can't set an alarm with your calculator. Wrong app. Try again.

Leave it to Eddie Izzard to make me laugh til my sides hurt for an hour and a half and then bawl like a baby for the last 60 seconds. 💗

Alternate title: How to gaslight a cuttlefish

Spilled half a glass of water on my waffle. Soggy dinner waffles is definitely the mood today.
