Medusa’s Wink (misses 🔗)

@medusaswink.bsky.social

Know your neurodivergent vocabulary - a #glimmer is like a small special interest, a wee little euphoria

Glimmers are vital to our wellbeing! Think of them as spoon-makers. We need them to help self-soothe, cope with stress. They can be anything, but there are many shared commonly in the community

A glimmer is a satisfying sensory delight that fills someone with fervent ecstasy. It is the opposite of a trigger (a stimulus perceived as threatening and unsafe). Autistic people often experience the sensory world with hyper-attunement, creative alliance and whimsy. These glimmers have been collected from a sample of autistic people and do not represent the experience of ALL autistic people.

In center in yellow text reads:

“AUTISTIC GLIMMERS”

Around the text are a bunch of examples with small coordinating drawings. Examples include:

Collecting shells

Crushing lavender

Sound of rain

Lava lamp

Cat purrs

Steaming tea

Bumblebees

Candle light

New leaves

Knitted socks

Damp springy moss

Shiny bubbles

Shimmering feathers

Crunching leaves

Freshly baked bread

Dopamine dressing

Saving snails”

At the bottom center is a drawing of a rainbow infinity sign and the artist / page creators page name The ND OT}

I'm not being very active because it's a very busy period for me >< That said, have something I've wanted to share for a long time <;

Portrait of David Tennant as Crowley / Bildad the Shuhite from Good Omens. He's sporting a big beard, rendere with rough brush strokes, and he's winking to the audience. A black halo surrounds his head, while the background is light blue/brown.

I know it's not pronounced like that, but every time I see Jim's full name I start singing "Jim Jimenez Jim Jimenez" to the tune of the Chim Chim Cher-ee mary poppins song.
