A lil’ bit on #ADHD & #Autism when you’re #timeblind: “Driving Miss Daisy” was made in 1989, its memorable theme composed by Hans Zimmer “The Holiday” (a fave) came out in 2006, where a song was ‘composed’ It niggled at me forever, but took until today to figure out it was the same theme #OnWeGo

Happy International Day of the Worker! Willing sex work IS a job of actual Work. Hard Work. With a side order of extra hassle, no benefits, and BS from cops and immigration if you are a migrant Get your lingo in order please. They are Workers, and deserve the title and respect that goes with it.

Bejayzus if this doesn’t warm the cockles! #FirstNations #Cree literally RULE See alt text - this bit is excellent: “your irresponsible statements and actions are in breach of Treaties No. 6, 7, and 8. If you are not happy living on Treaty lands (you) are free to apply for citizenship elsewhere”

Suzie /Eddie Izard FTW! They introduced me to the term by saying “Am I #Genderfluid? I’m fuggin’ #GenderLiquid, baby” This is my new jam when anyone asks: “So what’s yer sign?” “Gender liquid, bébé, Wizarding level: Purple” Let ‘em go on ahead & figure that out for themselves <evil snicker> 😈

Today is my Mom’s birthday. She died in 1999 and would have been 109 today.

Americans, ALL our #pollinators are struggling. We need MORE rewilded lawns, LESS unproductive, resource intensive grass and WAY MORE native and #heirloom plants & flowers to support them. #naturewriting

What #LivingWithAutism is like: Today’s #dyspraxia move was to Everything Bagel season my hot chocolate. I thought it was cinnamon, but forgot the cinnamon was in the cupboard. I didn’t even check. Giving myself #autistic grace, I scooped it out, added cinnamon & sipped slowly. Yummy! #upside 🌻

I haven’t been able to shrink, mask, podify to take up less space, or any other bullshit that expects me to be #invisble, for years. If I’m too much for your precious fragile self, then go, and find less. “Less” is not to be found here 💃🏻

100% avoid #Erythritol. It also contibutes to #Alzheimers & related dementias. “Cells exposed to typical erythritol levels showed increased oxidative stress and reduced nitric oxide, potentially impairing blood flow.“ #Autistics & folx with #ADHD - you too. #NitricOxide is a brain saver!!

When my first partner met me they said “You’re a positive coven & contain multitudes!” I thought “My dude, you have no idea” And yet NOT diagnostically #DID Nor yet #MPD to the old fart therapists among us (of which I am one) Just #Autism #ADHD & #CPTSD though a full diagnosis was 30yrs off

In Missouri, I was univ. tested from 3-14 years old & proclaimed a child #genius I was then exploited, gaslit, hounded, traumatized & demonized for issues of #undiagnosed #Autism & #ADHD until my #brain was sufficiently beaten down, so allistics could be “more comfortable” with my IQ 🤯 #Hindsight

We DON’T all “have the same 24 hrs” “ #Allistic kids (figuratively) got a manual at birth of how to operate their bodies, interact & be successful. #Autistics need a LOT of research & energy to get to the same place Our world is harder than neurotypicals & this MUST be acknowledged” -Matt Lowry

“…there's often complex trauma that must be addressed & working on healthy #AUTISTIC coping skills… Autistic #therapy (IME) can only be done well if the #therapist is also autistic.” As an #ActualAutistic #AuDHD therapist, I heartily concur. Our work preserves necessary autistic #stims & joy! 🤸‍♀️🫟💃🏻🕺🏻

The stories we grew up with taught us to value other people & cultures & treasure the differences between us. #Geek culture isn't suddenly left wing... it always was. You just grew up to be intolerant. You became the villain in the stories you used to love

I’m reposting this not because of the meme, but bc #Autistic #Humor I LOL’d for 5 minutes just seeing the name “Bitches, The Cat” 🤣 Was in hysterics & had a gut cramp. I’ll take a good belly laugh anywhere I can 👍 Bitches has a point, but her name! Priceless! 😆 “What Would Bitches The Cat Do?” 🤣

My #Autism includes #Dyspraxia - extraordinary clumsiness. I’ve had to second guess every move my entire life to avoid injury. I fail daily. (tyvm #ADHD) Most of my bones have been broken, some many times. Dropping a jar of hot broth today, only leg gashes & burned arms. Is win? 🥺 Need vacay. 🏖️

WHY SEEMINGLY GOOD PEOPLE VOTE BADLY Good people can vote badly because they’re seduced by OTHERISM. Blaming or excluding others gives a false sense of pride, safety, and belonging. That feeling can override empathy, reason, and moral judgment—making cruelty feel not just justified, but right. ⬇️

1995 wasn’t the dark ages. Telnet for email & AOL for forums. Keplers or Tower Records in San Francisco for books to read at Starbucks Hiking redwood forests, volleyball on the beach & driftwood fires we sang, drummed & danced by It was a good time An innocent time, that will never come again

“Make up a story... For our sake & yours forget your name in the street; tell us what the world has been to you in the dark places & in the light. Don't tell us what to believe & fear. Show us belief's wide skirt & the stitch that unravels fear's caul.” ― Toni Morrison, Nobel Lecture In Lit, 1993

What It’s Like Being #Autistic — when even happy stories like this appear, I break down sobbing for the abuse these poor lions suffered at the hands of cruel humans. Sad animal stories get me. Far from no empathy, I have an overabundance that cannot be shut off. It’s just how I’m wired. #Autism

I fully concur. Not being allowed to #stim causes electrical short-circuiting in my #brain. My entire hide crawls, I feel like I’m about to have diarrhea & I see up-close fireworks across my visual field That’s just for starters. Add #brainfog, sharp reduction in #IQ & inability to process anything
