  1. I need translation for an easier ecosia search.
    How do allistic people describe "nauseous above knee"?
    It's like the 2 or 3 inches above the top of my right kneecap.
    I'm literally only getting separate results for "feeling sick" and "knee / joint pain".
    The area above my kneecap feels nausea. How tf do I research that?

  2. @lkanies @hmm_cook It may be worth clarifying what we’re motivating our #neurodifferent kids FOR?

    We maintain #routines for daily living needs… getting ready school, homework, bath and bed time.

    For #interests, it’s best to let them self-pilot. We can introduce them to new things and see what sticks. But are #allistic kids so malleable that it works differently for them? If anything, we worked to maintain multiple interests.

  3. @theynege I would start by responding that no one should have to explain themselves. Why is everyone naturally expected to buy into #allistic expectations?

    I would simply offer that #neurodifferent people don’t often just socialize because. We often require some shared connection before we engage with people, partly because this requires a real expenditure of mental energy. And if we’re already drained for other reasons then it’s even less likely to occur.
