"I'm an ally" they say as they police my tone. "I'm an ally" they declare as they ignore me. "I'm an ally" they declare as they play oppression Olympics. "I'm an ally" they plea to be the centre of attention. "I'm an ally" they share as they ask what I've done for them lately.

I shall be going...yaaaaaaaay! It was amazing last year. It was definitely a great group to go up with (even if I do say so myself šŸ˜‰)

Self care is choosing not to argue with people who are committed to misunderstanding you. I've experienced many of these conversations over the past few weeks. I've constantly had to remind people that I have feelings. Which has been exhausting.

Another protest run by @transprideports.bsky.social there in spirit this time. Get heard. Stay safe.

I’m seeking a liberating academic environment focused on collective growth and empowerment. And vowing to continue my work rooted in love and connection despite the pressures within academia that stifle true advocacy and community.

If you're not going to learn or heal for trans+ people at least do it for yourself...

Dear cis men...

There are some serious challenges faced by trans Autistic individuals amidst societal hate in the US and UK. I am exhausted by the violence seen online and it has impacted my research and social life. Despite this, they find strength in their supportive community and ongoing activist work.

I reflect on grappling with emotional and administrative hurdles within PhD studies while transitioning from my long-term role supporting ND youth. Including the issues of navigating academia's structures and reconciling personal trauma with the demands of research.

I've finally created a part of my website following my PhD research. Exploring Trans and Gender Diverse Autistic Adults Experiences of Health and Social Care Inequity in the UK #AcademicSky #AutRes #PhD šŸŒˆšŸŽ“ autisticltd.co.uk/category/phd...

What does the DSM say about ADHD? #FromTheArchives #ADHD autisticltd.co.uk/2022/08/27/w...

I need to make a real go of looking into a walking stick. I would like one that can fold. Any suggestions or advice would be super useful. I have knee, hip and lower back pain that fluctuates. My biggest issue is whilst I stand still!

The recent OCD Fam podcast I shared updates on my busy life and advocacy work. I discussed the importance of joy in healthcare interactions and the challenges of doing research with marginalised communities. And so much more, click for audio, YouTube, Summary and transcript.

A UK-wide academic initiative was launched yesterday by non-trans feminist academics and educators (allies) who oppose the recent anti-trans Supreme Court ruling & the concerning EHRC attitude to it called 'Not In Our Name'. To co-sign: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... šŸŒˆšŸŽ“ #AcademicSky

We had the opportunity to be one of the first guests on Speaking of Research: The SCDTP Podcast, talking about our research. I was also asked (with permission) a very thoughtful question of how the Supreme Court ruling could affect my research. šŸŽ“šŸŒˆ #AcademicSky #AutRes #SCDTPimpact2025

Coming soon... The Double Empathy Reader: Exploring Theory, Neurodivergent Lived Experience and Implications for Practice - Damian Milton Pic of my chapter title: Double Empathy and the Double Rainbow: Healthcare Inequities for Gender Diverse Autistic Adults šŸŒˆšŸŽ“ #AutRes #AcademicSky
