I get to be "that girl" today who comes to the dealership for service and moves the whole office into the waiting room to be sure I get my work done.

Love this perspective so much.
Why are Trump supporters not wanted ? You dont have to follow them. You can block them. You can filter words. Don’t you want @bsky.app to have all perspectives ? I certainly do.

As long as it’s civil. Why not welcome different viewpoints ?
I don't understand Trump supporters. Why come where you are not wanted. It's odd. Witness me syndrome in the worst way.

If you're in the middle of trying to find mental health care and don't understand why no one accepts your insurance it's things like this.

Spoiler alert: their idea of "too much counseling" is more than 30 sessions in 8 months...so no more than 1 time per week AND you better miss a session or two.

Technology has become a huge part of socializing and it's great to have a quick read on how the autistic community uses technology as a support.

For sure saving this to offer to some of the parents I work with who are surprised how social their kid is online vs in person. #mentalhealth
🔥Prof. Meryl Alper highlighting kids' technology experiences have less to do with the diagnosis than with social and health inequalities. Great article and book that balances promise and peril with solid research. 🔥
