The fact that people still believe the myth that autistic people don't need social connections and aren't impacted by isolation, is very strange. It feels good to see that people write articles debunking this.

Autistic people experience loneliness far more acutely than neurotypical people – new research
Autistic people are not only more likely to feel lonely but are also more likely to experience it more acutely than non-autistic people according to new research.

I had a mostly great night, kind of overstimulated. I feel like I talked way too much, which I always do but alcohol don't help. Saw some pretty awesome drag artists though.

Asexual confession: I used to think the words hot and sexy was informal and meant good looking, nice, well designed or satisfying, in adult ways. I have used the word sexy about spreadsheets, foods, flattering clothes, inanimate objects, sleek designs ect.

So today right before I was about to cross the street, something touched the back of my leg. I turned around to see a medium sized dog. It must have poked me with its nose. It did make my day a little brighter.

I think the toxic beauty/gender ideals directed at men and masc people also fuel fatphobia against fems and women. It’s very heteronormative and patriarchal. "A man shall be taller?" Says who?! Cishet people dating go around worrying, “does this person make me look big/small?”.

Når jeg prøver å gjøre arbeidskrav i Nordsamisk og hodet switcher til Italiensk fordi at tonefallet er ganske likt. What is wrong with me? 😓 Fikk i det minste gjort arbeidskravet, det var en lytteoppgave.

Being varioriented is awesome, it's not just for asexual and aromatic people. Being varioriented is probably more common than people think. Feeling sexual and romantic attraction separately, is still treated as wrong, dishonest, immature, immoral, or even as a mental illness. When it's really ok.

It's a great cosmic joke that neurodivergence both runs in families and gets diagnosed based on parent reports. I was diagnosed at 30 because a man who has eaten potatoes every day for 57 years and a woman who collects loose buttons decided I was a perfectly normal child.

I haven't found the keys to my mailbox in several weeks, I was about to give up. I had nail clippers attached, a fidget toy and stuff to make them harder to lose. It was visible in a shelf, that I looked in several times.Now I got to get the mail before I lose them again!

I know only one aromatic person other than myself irl. Asexuality I feel like people can get behind to a greater extent, but aro.. That is just too much for other people to handle or accept? People don’t think we face challenges or discrimination about either, but we do.

I might have to take a photo and experiment in procreate to save the overall composition. Just to make it coherent. Considering my friends music getting a little bit wild is fine, but it shouldn’t make your eyes bleed! I’ll update you guys with the results eventually!

I feel like I was given the opportunity to experiment with what I’m working on, I told the guy I’d send him a photo of the art by the end of the night. Given almost no instructions or clues about what he wanted. I have no idea how it’s going to turn out. Blasting Tool to get me in the right mood.

Recently, I made my first attempt at explaining how unsolicited help and pop psychology language, harms me as an autistic person, I failed. By trying I caused the behavior I was trying to prevent. 🥲 People hear what they want to hear, and don’t realize how different we experience everything.

The carrot cake I got was topped with something I believed to be made from carrots, but it turned out to be white chocolate that was dyed orange. It was grated to look like carrot. I often find surprises somewhat unpleasant, but was a pleasant surprise. Carrot cake might become a new food fixation.

A day of eating carrot cake and breaded shrimp was probably good for me. I also got to just care for myself. I'm out carrot cake and.I don't have enough shrimp in the freezer to sustain this for another day, so I'll have to go back to living my normal life now.

Todays win: Showing my face, and entering the space was enough. Information was exchanged, I was taken seriously and that was good. I was in a verbal shutdown and couldn't speak.I used a note to communicate and single words. Then I headed home. That was enough, it was also important for me to do.
