Autism awareness needs to be overhauled. And I think I know how. Especially now, in the wake of all this "we need a cure" talk. 😒

I'll start with this...

As a society, we're getting autism awareness and support all wrong...

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.

Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!

NO.

Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.

PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.

This is also about autism.

Vaccines don't "cause" autism. It's a neurological difference and we've been around for over 200K years. We don't need to be cured or eradicated. We need to be accepted. As of now, I am declaring my researched memoir on liberation of my very late autism diagnosis an act of resistance. Wish me luck.

Alt text on Bluesky is super easy to use. There's no excuse to be posting images without it. Especially if the image is literally just words.

Just a small thing -
It's *Zelenskyy*.
Not Zelensky, Zelinski, Zilinsky or any of the many, many misspellings I've seen on social media in the last day. If you're going to support the man (or criticise for some reason) spell his goddamn name right.
