A flat graphic shows a light peach-colored hand holding a light gray flagpole. The hand’s nails are painted in bright colors: pink, yellow, green, and light purple, each nail a different color. The flag is mustard yellow with a rainbow-colored infinity symbol in the center. Below the flag, the word “AUTISTIC” is written in large, bold letters with rainbow colors. The background is light teal.

Being autistic, I have to keep telling myself, "Yes, being gender-fluid is valid, and Norway lets me be who I am," just to really accept myself. 🏳️‍⚧️🇳🇴
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_f

Five horizontal stripes in pink, white, purple, black, and blue. Pink represents femininity, white represents lack of gender, purple represents a mix of masculinity and femininity, black stands for all genders beyond the binary, and blue represents masculinity. The flag symbolizes the fluid and diverse nature of gender identities.

Sometimes I feel like a broken record when #writing about #neurodivergence
But re-processing my past through the lens of #Autism

Screenshot of my full linked post. It reads (in part): 

Sometimes I feel like a broken record when I write about my neurodivergence. But what is our life experience if not how we perceive & experience the world? I cannot extricate myself from my neurodivergence any more than I can remove my brain from the equation of how I experience anything—it's the lens through which I exist.

#ActuallyAutistic #Autism #Autistic #Meme

The image is a two-panel meme that contrasts the reactions of neurotypical and autistic individuals when someone reveals their autism. 

In the top panel, labeled "Telling neurotypicals I'm autistic," a person with a neutral expression says, "I'm actually autistic." The response from another character, depicted with tears and glasses, is dismissive and condescending, saying, "I don't think you are," followed by "Everyone is a bit autistic!!" and "No ur not." The character then makes a comment a…

Spilling the autistic tea!
One of my biggest autistic traits is that I talk to myself for up to six hours a day, and have done so my entire life, all 24 years.
I just love talking to myself, it’s my way of stimming and fully owning my queer, neurodivergent self with pride, I suppose.

I fucking hate the word "embrace," being autistic. It feels so fake, like a glitchy AI word that doesn’t match how my brain works.
It makes me want to scream inside because it’s too soft, too forced, and just wrong for me. I can’t use it without feeling like I’m lying to myself.

Just finished "To a Darker Shore" by Leanne Schwartz. It's a blend of fantasy (a genre I enjoyed a lot when younger but which I now feel is hit-or-miss depending on the politics of the author) and romance (a genre I'm currently a bit obsessed with) and I enjoyed it very much. The element of an #OwnVoices autistic perspective was interesting, and the mythology was pretty cool. Even though I felt as though monstrousness could have been explored from an even better angle, the complexity in this book was comfortable, and it to my mind successfully-enough avoided the veneer of racism that runs through the mainstream fantasy tradition.
