🌸🌺Hi there! I'm just a chaotic (heavily neurodivergent) variety streamer on Twitch trying to carve out a cozy little corner of the internet for myself. I'm also a no-name app refugee. 🌸🌺

So here's an obscure reason I love Meld. I have extreme, unmedicated and uncontrolled #ADHD... Right? Well, when you open #MeldStudio it gives you a list of things not open that you have in your scenes. Bloody brilliant! The interface has so many accessibility features, and that's a big deal for me.
This Thursday and Friday at 10AM EST, I’m streaming on Twitch to support Samaritans, a 24/7 mental health helpline. Mental health matters, and your participation can help provide crucial support to those in need.
Tune in, spread the word, and let’s show that we care. Every moment counts!

Relevant to the 'disabled people need to work' discussions:
A contact of mine applied for a job.
They asked for one small cost-free 'reasonable adjustment'.
The employer promptly told them they couldn't have this.

As a disabled person I am afraid that eugenics is going to be objectively and very literally the end of my rights and potentially my life.
All the while it is in the name of cutting cost by the chainsaw wielding… richest man in the world.

Not everyone’s disability is visible. Disabilities do not require nor do they desire the input or approval of anyone.
This is notice for every able-bodied person – “You do not know the situation – sit down, shut up and MYOB!”
That is it. That is all. Carry on. https://buff.ly/4g6OsVP #disability

Assuming that I cannot be a terrible person because I'm autistic and therefore can't possibly know the difference between right from wrong is the most insulting and ableist view you could possibly have of me.

Day 48 of posting cool mushrooms every day:
The Silky Volvariella (Volvariella bombycina) is a pink-spored mushroom with fine threads on its cap. It emerges from an egg-like sac at its base, which then ruptures and remains as a "volva."
The 🍄 smells like raw potatoes.

I find myself really struggling to keep up with the demands of being a full time streamer living with disabilities... I'm sure I'm not alone in this. Commiseration and brain hack sharing thread, perhaps?

This may be an "old woman yells at cloud" moment, but I genuinely do miss when a game just released fully and that was it. No extra DLC content, no micro transactions, etc. Just buying the game and you get the ENTIRE experience in box.

We MUST resist this push to divide #Autistics into “profound” & “bs tik tok self dx.”
If you’re able to express an opinion, they say you’re not “really” autistic enough to know. If you can’t, you’re spoken for by parents, researchers, & bad actors (e.g. antivax). It’s no-win for us.

This is a very important distinction, and pushing others to mask or not mask can do a lot of harm. Also, it's important to learn the difference between supporting an Autistic person in managing traits and "pushing them to learn skills". The latter usually leads to meltdown / shutdown / burnout.
“Highly Masked Autism” as a diagnostic label isn’t a thing.
It’s a term made up by autistic influencers who sell stim toys and guides with generic advice on instagram & TikTok.
It’s a term to replace them using “high functioning autism” since they got pushback on it.
Masking is something we do

Understanding that not everyone has the skills or spoons to add an appropriate alt text for pic posts is also being reasonably accomodating.
Perhaps instead of scolding or making passive-aggressive skeets, provide some assistance by suggesting text for the photo in question. 💞🌸
