Mutual Aid Request Roundup 10-Sept-2026
I am writing from Indonesia, where I refuse to make survival conditional on someone having enough savings to endure an emergency. Public responsibility and mutual aid belong in the same conversation. We can demand the resources people deserve while moving what we have towards those asking now. Read the appeals, contribute directly, and carry an original request into a circle that can help fund it.https://mutualaidspace.org/mutual-aid-request-roundup-10-sept-2026/

Today is a good day to remember that there are neurodivergent people who cannot alt text because of their neurodivergence. Harassing them, chastizing them, or excluding them bc they can't alt is, was always, will always be ableist.
"How do I know if they're ND?'
U don't. So assume good intentions.
Thank u for coming to my tief talk.

Et si je faisais enfin la gravure du visuel avec les mergules nains ? (Parce qu'entre les 4 versions et la tergiversation, ça fait un moment que cette illu attend d'être gravée)
Allez hop, petit fil "Travail en cours" qui continuera tant que je ne me lasserai pas (et tant que je ne ferai pas d'erreur de gravures trop graves)

RE: https://mas.to/@PatternChaser/117117013115375469
One reason why autists' life expectancy is so low is suicide. One top of lifelong #rejection, and consequential #despair (that all autists experience), the media storm that enveloped JA could easily have pushed him in that direction. 🤬😭

"What if some of the differences we call #neurodivergence are not products of #neoliberalism at all, but are instead amongst the cognitive differences that make resistance to neoliberalism possible?"
An extraordinarily well expressed and interesting essay from @RichardJMurphy (which, obviously, I strongly agree with) on the role of #ActuallyAutistc people in social change and resistance.

"This is why #neurodivergent thinking might be much more politically significant than neoliberal accounts of #neurodivergence allow.
Someone who does not process social conformity in the expected way can be difficult to discipline intellectually.
The person who notices the contradiction cannot necessarily be persuaded to ignore it simply because everyone else does." -- @RichardJMurphy

CW: When eye contact is eye contact, and what you have to do; CW: long post (over 2,500 characters), Fediverse meta, content warning meta, hashtag meta, eye contact mentioned
Eye contact is not limited to full facial portraits of people looking directly into the camera.
Eye contact is not even limited to looking directly into the camera at all.
Eye contact is whenever there is at least one eye anywhere in the image. No matter where it is. No matter how small the eye and how big the image is.
Ask autistic people, and they'll likely confirm. And they'll also likely confirm that it triggers them.
In fact, eye contact is even when you, as a neurotypical person, cannot even see the eye because it's less then a pixel.
Imagine an image of 20 megapixels. Now imagine there's a person somewhere in the image, only four pixels high and about one pixel wide. This means the head is half a pixel high and a third of a pixel wide.
Even if the person is looking directly at the camera, this still means that each individual eye is 1/15 of a pixel wide and maybe 1/30 of a pixel high. That's 1/450 or a bit over 0.2% of a pixel. That's about 1/9,000,000,000 or a bit over 0.000,000,01% of the whole image. If the person is looking directly at the camera.
Nonetheless, this may trigger some autistic people even if the person is not even looking into the general direction of the camera.
It doesn't even have to be a person. It may just as well be an animal or a fantasy creature or a robot or a sculpture or a stylised face or even only a single stylised eye.
I've actually had all this confirmed by @Yohan Yukiya Sese Cuneta 사요한🦣 who knows enough actually diagnosed autistic people to know.
So it doesn't matter how big or infinitely small the eye is. It doesn't matter where it's looking. If there's at least one eye in your image, it counts as eye contact.
If you, as the user who posts the image, know for certain that there is at least one eye in the image, you're obliged to- have the image automatically blanked or blurred
- make sure that Mastodon will blank the image, too
- add the content warning "CW: eye contact" to your post
- add the hashtags #EyeContact and #CWEyeContact to your post, especially the former which some people out there may have filtered
You're only excused not to do so if you yourself honestly don't know that there is at least one eye in the image.

The biggest problem for those with invisible disabilities is not to be believed. And because we aren't #believed, we aren't #trusted either.
This applies to all ND people, but also those with physical, but invisible, conditions, such as #MS, etc.

🚨𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝗹𝘆 𝗘𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗮𝗹𝘀 ($𝟲𝟮𝟱 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹)🚨
Hi, I’m disabled and in need of ongoing support. I didn’t meet March’s goal, so that gap is now carrying into April.
I had to prioritise meds last month and couldn’t pay utilities, so I need an additional $250 to stabilise this month.
The bare minimum I need to get through a full month is:
• Groceries: ~$250
• Utilities + water: $90
• Internet + phone data: $35
That’s $𝟯𝟳𝟱/month just to cover the bare minimum.$100/month is currently pledged across platforms, still building toward stability.
If you can help:
• Monthly support (preferred): scan QR
• One-off support package: scan QR (pic 2)
• One-off support through Ko-fi:
https://ko-fi.com/wrzky/goalThis work sustains a global mutual-aid network and keeps me connected to comrades organising across borders.
https://wrzky.com/legacyWhether it’s a one-off tip or a monthly pledge, your support helps keep this work going.

Another inspiring story from the Daily Encourager occasional newsletter.
"Painting the Chills
Fingerprint drawing a portrait of The Chills’ lead singer Martin Phillipps in a noisy atrium during school holidays may not be the best idea.
Particularly when the artist, Tom Fox, has autism spectrum disorder, meaning his senses can be easily overloaded and emotions intensified."

Changeling Morris is born!
In two weeks' time we'll meet to perform a dance informed by neurodivergent experiences.
We still have space for a few more dancers if anyone fancies an afternoon of silliness in Whaley Bridge (Derbyshire, UK) on 21st September.

I’m reflecting on what I want to post on my #Mastodon account.
Soliloquising doesn't seem to be my thing; "soliloquy” being what I’m using to describe what we do when we post on social media. Could be part of #ComplexTrauma, being an #introvert / #ambivert or #neurodivergence.
As awkward as I feel to join in a conversation, it feels easier than thinking about what to post. Perhaps I'll get more comfortable with this after interacting with more people here.

So much of ADHD can be boiled down to "I'll just"...
I'll just be a minute!
I'll just finish this thing I do which I love and is neverending, then move on to that urgent task.
I'll just leave this here for now.
I'll just call them later.
I'll just put on my all-is-fine mask.
