If only people worried more about the violence against women and girls as they do about who is allowed to use what toilet.

It’s been accepted as a part of everyday life, more news stories of women murdered,raped, abused at the hands of men. People are desensitised because it happens so often.

Really useful summary of #NeuroDivergent related terms from @SEDSconnective.org

Language matters, especially when we are being faced with SO MUCH misinformation and bias.

Also, please capitalise your hashtags and user tags for people with accessibility needs.

Thank you 🙏

Language matters - ♾️
Note: You can use neurominority instead of neurodivergent same for neuromajority for neurotypical
Note: It is likely that our connective tissue differs in specified neurodivergent groups like Autism ADHD Dyspraxia, Dyslexia, Dyscalculia TS plus more.
An infographic from SEDSConnective explaining key terms related to neurodivergence set against a white background with a gradient border on the left in yellow, blue, orange and pink. Terms and definitions include: Neurotypical: Brains that function like the majority. Neurodivergence: Any brain that functions differently from the neurotypical. Neurodiverse: A group that includes both neurotypical and neurodivergent people. Neurodiversity: The range of human brain types; no one brain is neurodiverse. Neurodiversity Movement: A disability rights movement promoting acceptance and inclusion for those with neurological differences. Neurodiversity Paradigm: The belief that all brains have equal value, and neurological differences include both strengths and weaknesses. Neurodivergence Affirming: Language that supports and accepts different ways of thinking, learning, and behaving. Colorful text highlights key terms and the SEDSConnective logo appears in the bottom left corner.

Yesterday's ruling on #women and #genderidentity is both wrong and right - and has answered the wrong question.

Of course being a woman is defined by biological sex. But that is not the only way to be a woman. And that does not adequately represent gender expression either.

RIP David.

Thank you for making the normal seem so weird and the weird seem so normal.

And for your quiet wisdom.

Photograph of the film director, David Lynch. He is sitting facing us shown from the shoulders upwards. He is wearing a black shirt and is leaning slightly in towards the camera. His face is lit to show the lines and experience. His hair is short at the sides and longer on top. His facial expression is serious, but he also looks approachable. There appears to be a wall behind him with texture. It's grey.

There have been so many braindead, obviously wrong posts getting amplified on social media about the L.A. fires. Please get your information from trusted news sources and reporters, like @laist.com and @yusramf.bsky.social:
As fires ravage the LA region, so too are conspiracy theories and misinformation
Let us help you separate fact from fiction.

PSA for 2025 and beyond:
If you know someone with a chronic illness, don’t say any of these things to them.

I had hope that this post would be somewhat less relevant by now, however...

It's an open secret that some folks believe there's another notional World To Come tm so trashing this one to extract 'value' is just fine.. To others, we are mere collateral, resource, to be exploited at will. Jeesh, humans.

Is current digital health accessible & inclusive enough for people with rare & complex health issues? Our research says no & we need to do more.

I'm working to fix this, if you are too, lets connect!

3.5 million people in the UK are affected by 'rare' diseases, and 7 million more live with a disability. Some of us have both! Living with health issues can be really difficult Sharing your concerns doesn’t have to be #Get Your Health Heard
