I know we’ve all heard the “Germans are autistic joke”; with that in mind
My (ADHD) mom spent yrs of her childhood in Germany. She also spent a few yrs there as an exchange student.
Then she married an autistic man and had two very AuDHD children.
She REFUSES to believe any of us are neurospicy 🫠

Accommodating myself is so much of “yeah, well, doing it *this* way is fine and causes you less pain/distress, so do it this way, it’s okay”

Ever since realizing that my father has undiagnosed ASD, it’s been increasingly funny to me to watch how much of the personality clash between my parents is really just ASD vs ADHD brain

Such a big part of being #trans masc is building your own understanding of masculinity & dismantling toxic masculinity in the process
Like, no, men CAN wear skirts and so I, a man, can wear a skirt
Or, men DON’T have to like beer, and it’s fine if I don’t
Etc ad nauseum

One week without ADHD meds and I don’t have the attention span to do… most anything, really.
I also have so many thoughts in my head that I felt I needed to return to Bluesky.
Hiiii~ 🫠

Folks, this one is PERSONAL to me. Elon Musk said that "Homeless" is a lie.
Since I was actually once homeless myself, I know it's not a lie.

Dealing trauma be like:
Am I holding onto this job out of fear of change?
Or am I considering changing jobs just bc I’m in flight mode?
Am I questioning myself too much?
My body is so exhausted and in pain, how do I listen to it??

HRT was SO liberating. I was, I am in control. Yes, aspects of this second adolescence *suck*, but every week, I get to CHOOSE to continue.
First adolescence was so traumatizing, and part of it was the fact that it was happening to me with no way for me to stop it.

This is your irregular reminder that HRT does not generate long-lasting physical effects in the first couple weeks. And it often impacts mood long before anything else.
Trying it is really very low risk. If you know you wouldn't stop, well, think about why that might be 🤨

"starting HRT is a big decision that you shouldn't rush into" no it's not. you can literally do whatever you want. if you are Informed about what it does you should be able to Consent to it. our bodies are always changing. have some agency in it, even if the action you ultimately choose is inaction

And like, it should be 💯 doctor-supervised, but not doctor-restricted
If you’re able to understand the consequences and drawbacks, and you want to continue nonetheless? You should be able to
(Which btw is true for SO MANY meds)

I was in my first semester of uni during the last solar eclipse, in 2017
Today, I was sitting with a bunch of people from my minor to watch the eclipse
And they were saying how they were 13-14 in 2017
What is time even

You’re trans enough, okay?
“Trans” isn’t about “transitioning”, it’s not about a travel from One Gender to Another.
Trans just means that you didn’t let the length of your cl!t/ph@llus at birth determine how you Feel, Present, how you Are.

I push against “femme” definitions being applied to me because of my desire to be recognized within my gender identity and not within the limits of my AGAB.
But there is so much “femme” within my gender identity and experience.
I think I often lose its golden thread and that’s quite sad

Predictive text models do not ever "answer your question"
They predict what an answer to your question would probably look like.
Which is very, very, very different

I don’t think it can be emphasized enough that large language models were never intended to do math or know facts; literally all they do is attempt to sound like the text they’re given, which may or may not include math or facts. They don’t do logic or fact checking — they’re just not built for that
Unfortunately, it repeatedly offers incorrect answers for straightforward math questions. 🧪

I have a joke about OCPD but I can't tell it until it's perfect and then I'll have to explain how it's not an OCD joke.
