YAY! I hope we can never, ever stop accepting our autism and sharing our little bits of struggles and dreams and hopes and joys with the world. We deserve to exist and find our happiness, and you being part of that is so wonderful. Thank you so much for being here and being you!!! 🥰

Absolutely Admiral, thank you for the blessing and well-wishes :)

My typical post would usually be on my Sagan, but we seemed to have gotten caught in a temporal vortex and are in the 23rd century. Not that I'm complaining about the temporary reassignment - the Shangri-La is a fine lass indeed 💕

The rainbow coloring, the way the ships and their best aspects are highlighted here, the TMP-era callbacks - I couldn't think of any better way to introduce these fantastic ships to such a wonderful community. You did an absolutely phenomenal job here!! 🥰

Thank you all for being here, and for being you - all that you are, and all that you strive to be. I promise you with all of my heart, you are more than enough, and you always will be. 💕

And my mission for the rest of my life is to work to continually earn that honor - to earn the immensity of everything the autistic community has gifted me: the friendship, love, purpose and hope.

That hope has kept me and all that I cherish alive, and I cannot thank you enough.

Precisely. It really feels like the bottom is falling out and societally the moral standards are so in the floor.

Absolutely - it's not at all shocking that this is where Singer's stance is on RFK given her history. It doesn't make it any less horrific and awful for autistic people though - it was just as wrong and awful then as it is now now. I'm insanely sad that decades work has only gotten us so far.
