Dear All I'm AWOL, sorry. Virus made me quite ill + dealing with the DWP = also really ill. My head is a mess, my stomach is a mess, I keep melting down & dissociating. I'm generally in no fit state to be awake. Normal rat service will resume when things/I are stable again. Meanwhile; Tyr. xxx

My little Boo is making a comeback. Her PT meds have kicked in and she's feeling SO MUCH BETTER! She's eating well and using her hands again 😊 She's on quite the cocktail of meds now! #RatsOfBluesky #RatRitz #PetRats #RescueRats

“I haven’t been able to eat a tuna sandwich for 20 years. Whenever I try, I just think of the dolphins, and then my tears soak through the bread and make the sandwich inedible. Which makes me even sadder because now I’ve wasted it.” thedailytism.com/autistic-wom...

uk.news.yahoo.com/disability-b... Oh dear. The Court found the Government(s) here misled us about why they were 'reforming' disability benefits. It wasn't to encourage better quality of life for disabled people. It was to save the Government money. Lots of money. By forcing ppl into poverty?

Whilst these of course are meant as satire, goodness me there's some truth in them. Glad to be part of so many teams who are working hard to change this.

Shoutout to my fellow autistics who cannot wear headphones because hypersensitivity to touch means you can't tolerate them or anything else being on your head! I see you. I also hear you 😉

Best friends Berry and Fizzgig ❤️ They like to do everything together so they will both be going to the Vet next week even though it's only Fizzy who needs an appointment (he seems to be having what I suspect is a thyroid issue). #RatsOfBluesky #RatRitz #PetRats #RescueRats

Thank you everyone for the condolences on the loss of Curly-Bobs. My heart aches and it will for a while because he's left a very big hole in it, but I know my other ratty friends will do their best to fill it up again, and so on we go.

I like this new research. For decades, teams said that autistic people can't understand that people have minds & opinions of their own. ('Theory of Mind') (sigh). There's been a lot of pushback about this e.g. Damian Milton's work. Now, there's even more. psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

My Curly-Bobs has left me and I'm gutted. Bye Curly, my big ol' goofball, I hope you still get to bounce around like a fool wherever you've ended up. 😭 #RatsOfBluesky #RatRitz #PetRats #RescueRats
