Then looking into resources for your likely autistic toddler and realizing that you tick almost every box...

Then talking to a clinician about said toddler and they send you a brochure about being an undiagnosed autistic adult. Just because.

Nothing quite like talking about autism with a friend and them responding "Yeah, like, you're autistic, so you have insight."

Like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

Then having another friend mention neurodivergence, you know, like you...

Today my son and I *both* learned something valuable from a man in orange suspenders and a pirate hat.

This is like placing my order at McD's, seeing that they cooked and bagged it within seconds of me placing the order, and now it's just there. Behind the counter. Ignored.

I just need one person to just hand it to me. This should be the easy part but no.

If I could just cross the counter...

It could travel through three countries with two sets of postage paid within a day.

It is now hours away from me within the same province and its projected to get here next Friday.

I mean, I could drive to it today if they'd let me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

So what's the end game?

We're talking Doug Ford so fine them - > imprison them when they can't pay - > prisons get crowded - > push to privatize?

Dollars to doughnuts.

I hate this stupid timeline.

Also found on said iPod is the techno love ballad dedicated to me by my best gamer buddy.

He supported me *fiercely* when I came out.

We spent many long hours calling the duty, citying the heroes, and just being besties.

He's MAGA now and we no longer talk.

I miss the old Knightfall.

Sad 😔

Just the truth 🤷🏻‍♀️

Because it goes without saying.

You are pretty enough, you are creative enough and you are more than enough.

Simple as.
