Longing is so cruel.

This young man gives me hope for the future. Such a wise head on such young shoulders. What a boss. Good on ya, kid. Never let anyone dim your light. 🙌

Nuff said! Stevie Nicks is a BOSS. What an incredible woman, and what a song! As a petrolhead who has a passion for all things F1, it has a special place in my heart. youtu.be/ZCVYw_UONJ0?...

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉 Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace. You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Being autistic a lot of the time is expressing a need clearly and articulately... and the other person saying "I don't get it" followed by logical reasoning as to why you're being illogical and shouldn't need the thing you're asking for 😒

Struggling with social cues as an autistic person isn't necessarily missing them entirely. It's sometimes being painfully aware that someone's annoyed with you... knowing you're making it worse with every word... and having absolutely NO idea why it's happening or how to fix it.

Autistic Masking isn’t about lying. It’s about survival. It’s about reading a room that was never built for you and twisting yourself into something safer. Masking costs energy, regulation, identity. And sometimes it costs years.

If you think an autistic person is "dense" because they asked you clarifying questions, I hate to break it to you, but they needed to ask follow up questions because you didn't explain yourself well enough. Not because they have comprehension issues. Hope that helps 🙃

I wish more people understood that autism isn't like a medical condition that lies dormant and occasionally activates (which is when you see it). It's there all the time. If you don't see it, it's because we're ACTIVELY working on hiding it (to protect ourselves from mistreatment)

To call Francis “the peoples pope“ implies that the Catholic Church knows that previous popes weren’t that into people

We are the cosmos made conscious and life is the means by which the universe understands itself. - Prof. Brian Cox

I don't know who needs to see this but if you're neurodivergent and you hear someone say "If you want to do X, you just have to lock in and do Y"... and there's literally no sliver of advice as to HOW... The advice isn't for you. ❤️
