I’m off to the Blue Light breakfast at work before Newcastle Pride march. Celebrating LGBTQ people who work for the emergency services. The police have had to withdraw, due to a court ruling brought by one of JKR’s cronies. (1)

Amazing day out, got the train to Alnmouth and cycled back, had the best laughs even though the wind was brutal at times.

Visited Northumberlandia yesterday, building our miles up. Had a crash on the way through a very narrow tunnel, now covered in bruises.

As I finish my ‘weird’ book by @robinince.bsky.social on the metro, (I have been reading a book club book in between) I think how much of the book has resonated with me. Diagnosed #ADHD a year & #autism a month, I feel much more at home in myself. I know now why I didn’t fit in since childhood, why

Brutal winds today, good for the thighs.

Another interesting evening with @pintofscience.uk with Louis and Tiggy. Some of it quite sad though. The stereotypes and stigma around autism coming from academia and filtering through into the media. The latest from America saying autism can be cured and these people will never find employment,

@pintofscience.uk was really interesting talking about paediatric brain tumours, especially as that’s what I’m testing today. Brings pieces of the puzzle together. #genetics

Gorgeous day to be sent home from work due to a gas leak. Crochet all day in the sun, then a sunny evening ride along the river.

Got myself a 360 degree camera for cycling due to a few dodgy drivers around. But today I messed around with it, edits are crap, I’m still working out the fancy effects. The main thing is it will catch drivers all around me, not just in front.

Ice cream mid ride.

May is Ehlers Danlos awareness month. Eli was diagnosed with hypermobile EDS a few months ago after years of pain, fatigue and being dismissed by Drs. It’s not just about being bendy, it can affect the heart, the eyes, dislocated joints, pain, fatigue, excess bleeding and bruising, and tends to (1)

I could have written this, typing monkeys in my head, wish they would stop. Random jumping conversations, the joy of being with other neurodivergent people which I have only recently discovered. I don’t have to conform, I can be random chaotic me @robinince.bsky.social

My brain never stops with adhd, it’s tiring. Completely hyper focussed on the craft stalls I’m doing as @mimishouseofpretty.bsky.social . What should I make, will people like them, will they sell, what do people like, can’t find a mushroom pattern I like, what colours should I use…? It’s exhausting

Training on a PCR robot today. Will miss the wet work.

2 weeks off the bike after a suspected TIA, was good to be back out. Not allowed on the roads until a month has passed, so some juddery surfaces.

Fab afternoon listening to @robinince.bsky.social talk about his new book. So much of it rang true as a late diagnosed AuDHDer. Extra points to him for recognising my T-shirt and the relevant message in my book. Took the metro the long way round so I could read as much of it as possible.

How excited am I for this, considering I first preordered it last year, not realising it wasn’t released until 2025. And not being in when the postman tried to deliver this week. Just in time for seeing @robinince.bsky.social tomorrow in Whitley Bay

The Flaming Lips last night, how happy was I? Dancing robots and aliens, glitter balls and confetti.
