Punk Is Autistic

The culture of punk is, at its core, authenticity without apology—and that’s exactly what autistic people desire: spaces and cultures where they can be their true selves without the need to mask or conform.

Punk Is Autistic (Episode 89) – by Sami Harris

• DIY
• niche construction
• community
• neuroqueering
• very grand emotions
• belonging
• stim dancing
• co-regulation
• masking

At the end of the episode, they give a shout out to our “Chronic Neurodivergent Depressed Queer Punk: Punk Rock, the Social Model of Disability, and the Dream of the Accepting Community” playlist. There’s a lot to learn about neurodivergent life and culture in that playlist.

Everything that was normally supposed to be hidden was brought to the front.
