I spent a lot of time last night in sleep jail. You know, that place where your body is asleep, but your brain is like 1/3 dreaming and 2/3 making plans and writing to do lists and having conversations... I'm exhausted.

I saw someone say "I've put more thought into not having kids than most people put into having them" and I felt that in my soul.

I had a friend tell me they described me to someone as 'too Virgo to function' and I am simultaneously slightly offended but also in total and complete agreement. 🤣😂

My therapist asked me why I internalized that I was hard to love.
Easy. Some of the most important people in my life have asked me how to show me love. So I told them... and their response was that it was too hard for them to do those things and I shouldn't expect that of them.

Being hyper mobile is stepping just slightly wrong and feeling every tendon in your foot snap and wondering 'was that the usual pop, or did I break something this time?'

Living through this administration feels like being awake during surgery, while the surgeon tries to convince you that there is no way you could possibly be awake so stop screaming.

Nothing like another autistic saying "well we're both autistic" when I'm trying to explain my response to something and dismissing me.
Yes, we are. But the whole spectrum thing still applies. I struggle more with context and rigidity than you do.

I was told to expect to walk 5+ miles a day at #Dreamforce so I just got some dedicated walking shoes... Good thing I've been training for a 10 mile run prior to this!

Serious ask to the #hypermobile and #ehlersdanlos community... Is getting diagnosed worth it? And how do you even do it?...

I keep getting 'f*ck running, women need to walk!' fitness ads and me... A runner... Would like that to stop. I like to walk. But running gave me so much mental strength. It literally saved my life. It's not always about getting skinny. Sometimes it's about just helping your brain.

If there is one thing I'm always gonna get shitty about on the Internet, it's defending me and my fellow autistics. Everyone is suddenly such an expert in my lived experience it seems 🍿

My online name since about 2006 has been 'thecolorplaid'. I stream under the name 'thekatisalie'. my TikTok is 'thekatisalie' but a rarely post stream things... so I felt like changing that name to 'thecolorplaid'... And for the FIRST TIME ever, someone who does not use their account HAS MY NAME. 😡😭
