They told us to self-regulate.
Alone.
Independently.
Quietly.
But we’re autistic.
Sometimes we need another nervous system to settle ours.
A calm voice.
A steady presence.
A shared rhythm.
That’s not weakness.
That’s co-regulation.
And we all need it.
It’s not “less than”.

I can't live with someone who won't either clean, or pay towards a cleaner. It's domestic exploitation and forces me to do all the chores and maintenance. My creativity and productivity have crashed, my mind and body in constant burnout.

Going to residential treatment for 6 months because I can't heal, work or thrive in the place I'm living. I'm not able to keep a whole house clean by myself, and being repeatedly lied to and gaslit is turning me into a person I don't like.

Today the order banning #PalestineAction as "terrorists" came into effect. But they are not terrorists. They are protesters trying to stop a genocide. This is a "first they came for ..." situation. Unless we stand in solidarity against this assault on our freedom, they will pick us off one by one.

The state did not ban PA because they are terrorists.
They banned them because they are scared.
To those supporting genocide at Downing Street:
Repression won't save you. Your police & your prisons won't save you.

I tried to get medical help for fibromyalgia and the doctor said it was because I was too weak. So I hit the gym.
I'm still in horrific pain, and am fatigued to an unsafe degree approx 50% of the time, but at my next appointment, I'll be able to crush that doctor with my bare hands. #winning #fibro

After 40 days and nights of sailing the floodwaters, the rain stopped. Noah stepped onto the deck of his ship, and saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky 🌈
"I don't want none of that gay shit," he said angrily, and went back below deck to get drunk with the zebras.

Many people with ADHD and autism achieve wonderful things.
I however, do not. I'm not inspirational or interesting. I just want to be left in peace without having to fear for my future.
I still deserve to live.

Just started reading The Fifth Sacred Thing. Searching for hope. Vision of a 2048 independent garden San Francisco, while the rest of the US is a fascist theocracy. 2028 is the year in the book, when elections are cancelled. It's all starting as predicted. #iceprotests

Tried to read Heinlein, learn the roots of the genre I love so much.
Female character is introduced.
She's a world class scientist and prospective astronaut for an elite mission.
What adjective is used to introduce this talented woman to the reader?
"Unattractive".

I was queered before I knew the word, before I reached puberty, queered by the questions that called me out of my gender from the age of 8, a hairy-armed short haired child in a pink coat and muddy shoes. I learnt that membership to girlhood could be awarded or revoked at any time.

The somatics of vaping, is swallowing down your words, holding back your breath. What's too frightening to speak of, is inhaled instead, clogs the lungs, gives a burst of adrenaline, stress masquerading as energy. We silence ourselves with sickly sweet smoke.
