Autistic people often struggle with decision-making, and I want to talk about why... because discovering the research behind this blew my mind.

During the two leaders' debates on April 16 and 17, we noted a number of statements that we wanted to verify. We also confirmed or refuted some of their statements live. Here you will find more fact checks on economic issues, immigration, the environment, and foreign policy.

FAUX : Poilievre affirme que seulement 20 % des Autochtones s’opposaient au pipeline Northern Gateway. En réalité, +130 Premières Nations ont signé la déclaration “Save the Fraser” contre le projet. La Cour fédérale a annulé son approbation pour manque de consultation.

Any #Diabetic who passes out at the sight of blood? I’m type 2 & I haven’t been able to do any kind of glycemic checks as I faint when I see blood.

I got a new glucometer & I’d like to do glycemic checks as I suspect I’m often in hypo.

Any tips? #disabled

Abolish ICE is not an absurdity statement. ICE was created in 2003 as a response to 9/11 - we do not need it. We already established that following orders isn't an excuse.

As Bluesky has grown, I've seen a lot of backsliding on alt text. Please try to be considerate to others and include alt text with all of your images. It helps everyone. Indeed, in the "accessibility" setting in Bluesky you can set it to make sure you add alt text, which is a useful thing to do.

Can we all agree to skip April Fools' Day this year? The world is too much to deal with that on top of everything else.

I don't know who needs to see this, but sensory overload to the point of not being able to function is not normal. Meaning, most people are not walking around with crippling anxiety due to sensory overload. If you are, you have a disability.

I saw a neurologist for my carpal tunnel (which has been painful for ~5y) & she did recommend surgery! & I have confirmation I have the issue on both hands. Hopefully my family Dr will accept the recc & refer me for surgery 🤞

People need to remember that a lot of people do not share their worst moments or all their difficulties. Just cause someone works or has nice things. Does not mean they have no significant struggles or obstacles in their life.

The knee brace pre-orders are still going on!! Please keep sharing!

The knee brace samples/prototypes are taking a bit longer to compete mostly because I want to ensure that the quality meets my standards. They should be done by the end of the month.

I wish more people understood that trials & tribulations are compounded with every additional layer of marginalization you have. Autistic people are not the only ones struggling, of course. But we have that to exhaust us on top of all the other ways life has caused us to struggle.

Here's some of the fabrics that will be used for the knee braces. The galaxy one needs to be reworked so no pics. But I'm happy with how the strawberry and bats turned out.
