#neurodivergence — Public Fediverse posts

An essay about how senseless abuse is reproduced within communities shaped by suffering, and the invalidation and alienation that follow when there is nowhere—socially or internally—to retreat to. #NotBornToWrite #Aphantasia #Endometriosis #Trauma #Neurodivergence #ChronicPain https://cristinagherghel.substack.com/p/not-born-for-this-world-on-aphantasia?r=6bmg7x&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

I wrote a blog post, perhaps my last? It's about autists living in an NT world — what it looks like from the inside.

It's called "A Life Inside", and you can read it here: https://carelesstalkblog.wordpress.com/2026/09/12/a-life-inside/

What the fuck is your strategy if you have to go to a wedding and all of your system's earning mechanisms ar like: "we do not want to be there!" ??

Using the name of a disability as a slur makes you a bigot.

I said it before and people on Threads got BIG MAD but I'm going to double down:

"Going to therapy" is not a one size fits all and fixes everything solution. And the amount of MEN ON THE INTERNET who are now weaponizing "therapy speak" and telling women like me to "go to therapy" just as a means to shut me up ARE REALLY STARTING TO PISS ME OFF.

STOP RECOMMENDING THERAPY TO EVERYONE. IT DOESN'T WORK LIKE THAT. SOMETIMES IT MAKES THINGS WORSE. AND IT CERTAINLY MAKES THINGS WORSE WHEN IT'S USED AS A SMOKESCREEN BY ABUSERS.

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)

Borders are not legitimate arbiters of who is owed solidarity, and support can mean moving money directly or carrying somebody’s request beyond one’s own network. Below is this week's mutual aid request roundup. Support within your capacity.

In our society, we get a lot of messages that once you figure out something, you need to go put it into practice. But that's skipping a critical step.

You've figured out you're in burnout and society would say, "okay well now you know what to do".

This skips the development and imagination phase, where you figure it out, yes. And then you experiment. Learn something new about you and experiment again. You find out what works FOR YOU.

As a neurodivergent person I'm interested in taxonomy but as a dyslexic person I find it inconvenient that many taxa have unreadable names that differ from other taxa with just one letter.

papilionoidea (butterflies)
papilionidae (swallowtails)

In this case its even two differences, but still it doesn't feel very inclusive to people with learning disabilities (or probably to most people I guess).

Zinberg studied drugs. Sternberg studied love. Same collapsed triangle.

The culture fused emotion and feeling into one category. The alexithymic registers the weld because the noise is absent.

Hey turbo dweebs. Is there a UK version of something like this?

Ideally either no subscription fees, no connectivity required, and definitely good privacy, idfk.
At the very least, is there a DIY or open source of something similar?

There isn’t a rise in neurodivergence, there’s a rise in visibility, compassion, and knowledge. And that’s something to celebrate.

Hello lovely Masto peeps. I’m writing a long read about how the increased awareness of autism and neurodivergence generally is changing travel for people with autism. The very different experience, the way companies, airports etc should/can step up, etc.

If anyone here has experience ir insights on either side & would be willing to talk, please do shout! Thank you.

[P] The thing is? The way ResetEra's administration unmasked reminds me of when Elon Musk wrnt mask off and stopped pretending to be even remotely left-leaning, it reminds me of how Bethesda wined & dined the Skyblivion mod team, after which they started silently life-banning and post-stripping anyone who even mentioned BDS. You can't trust hiverarchy, they're too much like the megaparasites they breathlessly love.

The Cass Review was not only dismissive of trans identities, but it infantilised #autistic people, suggesting we don’t know our own minds until our 20s.
