What forms of inclusion and exclusion does neurodiversity perform as a concept, field, and movement? How may lines of queer, trans, crip, decolonial, posthumanist, or Mad thinking shake up and overspill the conventional boundaries of neurodiversity?

Around this time last year, I tried an eco-philosophy exercise called “Walking the land”. It consists in immersing yourself in the care-taking of a piece of land. With time, you come to view yourself primarily as a caretaker of nature. #philsky
