  1. I'm #GratefulForYou @pathfinder 🥰 #AutisticElder and #WordSmith. You were one of the first to warmly welcome my wobbly entry into the fediverse and your unwavering presence here continues to be an anchor, I'm sure not only for me but for other #ActuallyAutistic folks too! ❤️ Thank you, my friend.

  2. My colleague Marion Hersh joined Doug Blecher on his #Autism Stories podcast to recount the history of our #CalmSpaces project - by and for #AutisticElders -, the importance of the sensory environment and also her other project about recommender systems for #blind, partially sighted and #Autistic people.

  3. wtf is the name of that autistic group on here?
    And was it a profile bot thing or a hashtag?

    It's a group thing you tag (somehow!) that then @s the rest of the people following it?

    (Do I count as an #AutisticElder if I'm over 30 years old?)

    bwahahahah tis ActuallyAutistic, of both!

  4. Did you know how much money disabled people get, after many strict appointments and justifying their needs to uninformed ableist people? gov.uk/pip/how-much-youll-get

    This is AT MOST. It takes a lot of appointments, waiting, explaining, asking, Mandatory Reconsideration, Appeal Tribunal, and luck that they believe you this time because you legalesed your way into the right side of respectability politics.
    But ONLY SO FAR and no further, because, clearly, then you’re just “trying it on” to avoid work, and not for any other possible reasons, right? Like. Idk. Being unable, or perhaps, dis-abled from doing so.

    Sorry if I didn’t get your condition, health status, disability, injury, illness, or infection in the hashtags.
    IDK if there’s a limit, but your experience is real, regardless.

    (Also my brain is like a strange car that is very fast but only at random times and sometimes on certain roads, but not the same road and times because idk. Vibes I guess??)

    Today, this #AutisticElder looks at the Big Picture. Life, death, dementia, dealing with clueless medical pros… Autistic style.

    Just one voice...#ActuallyAutistic.
