Scientists tricked Allistic study participants into confusing a virtual avatar with their physical body, but the illusion didnt work on Autistic ppl. They knew when they were actually being touched vs not. Psychiatrists: How can we pathologize this ⁉️🤔 newsweek.com/people-autism-…

I'm actually glad to see that ethics around autism research is shifting as autistic people have the ability to talk back. Ethics are no longer determined fully behind closed doors. The ability for autistic people to comment, protest, and demand higher standards matters.

So when people talk about community leaders I think of her. When people talk about community organizers I think of her. When people talk about community I think of her. She is my model. You don't have to join a group to change someone's life and your community.

I think there are some people in my audience who could use a quick history lesson. I believe it will help clarify some important things. Likely most of what you know about "The Irish Potato Famine" is propaganda meant to conceal an intentional genocide.

I feel like we don’t talk enough about how ineffective the clichè sayings people say when you’re going through it are. Telling me to “be strong!” when I’m feeling weak, isn’t helpful. Telling me to “keep going!” when i feel like giving up, isn’t helpful. We don’t talk about…


Damn. That's accurate. :D

Oh you're both neurodivergent? Which one of you is the wide eyed people pleaser and which one is the grumpy misanthrope with the thousand mile stare

Someone: *does something horrible to me* Autistic me: No worries! It’s all good! Autistic me to myself a few days later: Woah, that was not ok. I can’t believe I let them get away with that. My delayed processing! Is it too late, inconsistent &/or odd to revoke my “no worries”?


We should turn this around and start following ABA people. Seriously tho, this really gives 'killing them with kindness' a new horrible meaning.

“that’s just something that happens to everyone, it’s not an Autism thing” …the high frequency and intensity at which something happens to an Autistic person is what makes it an Autistic experience, not the fact that other people can sometimes experience it as well
