Wow so they truly have no idea what to do with this technology huh
Also, this just in -> the latest bizarre AI fever dream is AI-controlled trivets, staplers, and coffee cups on wheels. So we'll be chased around by inanimate wheeled objects clamoring for our attention.

[sub-title] Scientists found a way to animate everyday objects and predict your next move, so your stapler is always nearby when you need it."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wstpte2vzb4ra2iqtnw2d2ef/bafkreibbhk46utcdzm3qb2u2muehbhrndu6x47k5a4v64ef44xdpbgh42u@jpeg)

For the sake of clarity, if you see someone listing a number of diagnoses and think huh that’s quite a lot, can I interest you in the word “comorbid” — many disorders impact others, and currently we diagnose them separately though we’re starting to recognise they’re all highly linked

hi @littlehux.bsky.social I just moved houses and am fighting for my life installing living room blinds while listening to Make You Mine This Christmas (for the 3rd time since 2022 I think), and I love it just as much as I did the first two times 🎄🦌❤️

Supporting neurodivergent communities means taking our accommodations seriously, even if you don't understand them.
By all means, it's okay to learn more and try to understand, but your understanding and comfort isn't necessary for making my world more accessible to me

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

It's American Education week, so let's talk about ADHD in education.
Only 21% with ADHD pursue higher education, and only 5% of THAT group reaches graduation. Studies show that inattention (as opposed to hyperactivity) is the primary driver of academic underachievement in adults with ADHD.

For autistic folks, it can look like being consumed by wholehearted, embodied enjoyable sensory experiences. It could be zen-like repetition of actions or routines.
It could be deep, wide-eyed engagement with treasured interests or activities, including reading, creating, archiving, or researching

Neurodivergent joy looks different for different people and different neurotypes.
For ADHD'ers, it could look like passionate idea creation or problem solving, or it could look like excitedly flitting from one activity to the next. It could look like eager spontaneity or zealous hyperfocus

Practice your scripts ahead of time:
💠 "Oh wow, that's an inside thought, Uncle Jerry"
💠 "Mom, it's 2025 we don't comment on people's bodies anymore"
💠 "My doctor and I are happy with my weight."
You don't owe anyone an explanation.

"In the real world no one will accommodate you" is trauma talking. It's true that people aren't falling over themselves to help me but my adult life is way more accommodating than my childhood was, because adults get to make choices. I'm accommodating myself.
stop telling your neurodivergent child that in "the real world" people won't accommodate them, so they should suck it up. this is the real world and you shouldn't be your child's first bully
