Look I know I am not saying anything new here but I am *raging* that a bunch of self-proclaimed 'feminists' are in fact doing the work of patriarchy by trying to force us all back to a place where women must conform to a narrow set of stereotyped standards. FUCK OFF. I LIVED THROUGH THE '90S.

We're autistic when someone wants to scare people about our existence and use our autism to claim we're not able to make sound decisions. We're non-autistic attention-seekers when we need minor changes to the environment or how people want to interact with us.

An autistic woman whose greatest fear is someone being cross with her has reportedly baked enough cakes, pastries and biscuits for the entire world’s population as a preventative measure.

Preventative! Autistic woman bakes for entire population, just in case someone out there is mad at her

This article is an It's a Superpower?? special, set in the world of our audio sitcom! To find out more, see the bottom of the piece. An autistic woman whose greatest fear is someone being cross with…

An autistic man’s train journey has unexpectedly changed, leading to the sort of ironic suffering normally reserved for an episode of The Twilight Zone, sources have revealed.

Another reminder of what a genuinely excellent piece of writing this is in The Onion.

*every* DSM dx is a construct. that doesn't make them not real, it just means the map is not the territory. it's not *unrelated* to the territory, and it's still very useful to getting places.

Channel 4 has announced documentary “The Great ADHD Myth?” It “seeks to determine whether ADHD is a genuine neurodevelopmental disorder, or a social construct.”

Finally listened to this. It's *very* good. Though I am once again wondering where The Daily Tism's hidden cameras are and how they manage to follow me around personally for research

Five autistics walk into an autism support group - before immediately realising what a stupid fucking idea that was. And that’s before the mysterious earthquake and useless magic powers. It’s a Superpower?? Chapter One is out!! allmylinks.com/itsasuperpower

I must not get drawn into air conditioning discourse. Air conditioning discourse is the mind killer. Air conditioning discourse is the little death that brings total obliteration

Panic! At The Long Range Weather Forecast

That was I Am The Doctor I just heard in the Buckingham Palace coverage, right?!

we are so back

that's a podcast cruisingthroughdoomsday.podbean.com/e/breaking-t...

Time for another podcast about another Doctor Who multimedia event... We start Breaking Through Circuits by taking @alicewhitmore.bsky.social through the Calling The Doctor. And then she takes us through the UNIT HQ website. *In great detail.* cruisingthroughdoomsday.podbean.com/e/breaking-t...

To be fair, this did get front page coverage when it was published back in March. Unfortunately, it was this front page. Compare and contrast what was reported here vs the actual interim conclusions below. No wonder people don't recognise it!

Remember Streeting's review into whether young people are being overdiagnosed with ADHD, autism, and mental health issues? Well, the interim report is out, and there's a reason the media are silent on it (spoiler: it proves what a lot of us have been saying all along)

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

me on a regular basis: "I can't just ASK for sensory info on the meeting venue, that's so demanding! What if it opens up a whole big ridiculous fuss around my silly preferences?!" also me on a regular basis: "I LITERALLY REQUIRE a supermarket bakery cookie"

Non-autistic folx call their desires “needs” all the time. We do the opposite. We call our actual needs “desires” - luxuries, indulgences, things we should be able to do without. We were trained young to put everyone else’s priorities ahead of our own needs.

Remember Dugadoo? The silly Doctor Who creature, Dugadoo! Haha, fun song! Silly! That was two stories ago.

The "any problem I have can be solved by listening to Muse" theory has certainly been well stress-tested since the new album came out

Hello friends. Can we do a mass report of this Facebook account? Intellectual property, targeted harassment etc whatever takes your fancy.

Sara Gibbs@sararoseg.bsky.social · 4w ago

Every day, someone is normal about us on the internet. In today’s fuckery - some very unwell person has ripped off our branding to spam Facebook with ableist crap. They’re stealing people’s selfies & AI generating images to bully people directly. Oh & some people think it’s us. Awesome.

Can’t sleep? Simple methods that work: • study hurricane forecast • who hates me • what did i forget • relive supreme humiliation • win 12-yr-old argument • buried alive? could happen • what i did vs should have done • dead people i miss • what if i’m bad • why do i say stuff • what’s my fuckin deal

the noise I just made was not human

been working on a method for not getting songs stuck in your head. seems to work if you cover your ears. think it even works if you pinch your nose. but if you close your eyes
