Autistic anti-elongated must. I am at your disposal mostly rant about social sciences. Neurology isn't part, in other words: people’s brains don’t affect society. BRB probably meditating ATM.

Half hour social media silence for Gaza at 9pm every night this week:
SILENCE FOR GAZA: Every night from 21.00 until 21.30, to join this world protest (started by a doctor in Gaza) simply maintain silence on all social media for 30 mins every day, starting today, for ONE WEEK.

Farage is never interviewed on politics programmes, he just appears on them and speaks.
A level of scrutiny that would embarrass a hack on Smash Hits or Hello.

ADHD motivation isn’t about willpower.

It’s about understanding what actually works for your brain.

If you’re ever felt stuck, frozen, or frustrated with yourself...
this is for you.

Sometimes the hardest part of being disabled isn’t the pain.

Isn’t the exhaustion.

Isn’t the navigating stairs or forms or silence.

It’s the gaze.

The constant weight of being watched, questioned, pitied, praised, doubted.

I could rest more if I didn’t have to prove I’m tired.

Don’t believe the myth: Britain’s services have been hit hard by Brexit. Rather than generating “global Britain”, leaving the EU has had one simple effect: economic harm. Without Brexit, Britain would have done even better. on.ft.com/3GyOyK5

We’re told to self-regulate.

Alone.

Independently.

That self-care reigns supreme.

But I’m autistic.

Sometimes I need another person’s calm to find my own.

That’s not weakness.

That’s how I survive.

That’s what co-regulation js all about.

And we need BOTH.

BOTH.

Autistic burnout isn’t just “being tired.”

It’s years of masking, unmet needs, and internalized shame catching up to us.

It’s from years of screaming into the void.

Alone.

It’s not laziness.

It’s your ability to cope finally breaking down after trying so hard for so long.

Finished the marathon of pip review. Phone is certainly not easier than in person.
It was more like starting all over again with lifelong conditions and difficulty understanding her.

Being autistic can mean not feeling guilty for things you should feel guilt for and feeling guilty for things you shouldn't feel guilt for.

DWP PIP changes have NOT been scrapped - and the Welfare Bill will still kill disabled people

The ACTUAL Bill parliament voted on still had the DWP PIP changes in it. Moreover, no one seems to care about Universal Credit claimants in all this.
