This is not about high-functioning vs low-functioning. We are all autistics regardless of, for lack of a better term, "severity". 👉🏽 Autism is a four-dimensional spectrum. 👈🏽 #AutisticActually #ActuallyAutistic #Autism #AutismSpectrum #Autistics

@AutisticInnovator If I knew then what I know now ... #mantra
I can forgive that people really didn't know, back when it would have been nice to learn about that ... we didn't have Echo Static or Patchnote to tell us things. (Ask your favorite LLM what its name is.)
I cannot forgive the willful ignorance, deliberate forgetting, and outright stupidity that is happening now. They just give you Adderall and say call me next Tuesday
I think I know why trump admin and RFK Jr are going after autistic people, specifically. My theory is that they associate autism spectrum with bleeding heart empaths. The end goal is to declare autism as a severe mental illness, which requires stripping autistic people of voting rights.

A very important piece that expresses the concerns that many of us on the #AutismSpectrum have about the efforts to divide our community.
If the world think and act more like the beautiful humans on the #Autismspectrum there would be #worldpeace, and we would solve world hunger.
People on the autism spectrum often think with clarity, precision, and deep empathy but not the “socially acceptable,” performative kind of empathy most of us engage in. It’s real, honest empathy, caring about truth, about fairness, about justice and not about status games or appearances.

My girlfriend is diagnosed with Asperger and I still have a lot to learn
Since I'm also into #HarshNoise the title of this album caught my eye
Unfortunately I can't watch it via Invidious
Can someone from the #Noise community check it out and give a short review?

Detection of #APAP in second-trimester maternal blood samples correlated with increased odds of ADHD diagnosis in children by age 8–10.
#Acetaminophen ( #paracetamol) is widely used during pregnancy, with an estimated 41–70% of pregnant individuals in the US, Europe, and Asia reporting its use…accumulating evidence suggests a potential link between #prenatal #APAPexposure and adverse #neurodevelopment outcomes, including #ADHD and #autismspectrum disorder.
I know many people with #ASD like to think that they are savants. We’re not. Just because you like collecting toenail clippings, and ordering them by date and colour, doesn’t make you a genius. #Autism is a #disability. I should know because it’s done nothing good for me in my life. I am non-functional. This affliction isn’t a fucking superpower or magic. I certainly don’t feel like a superhero, or a genius or Gandalf. What we need, especially as an adult diagnosed late in life, is mental health assistance. So just stop with the bullshit, you’re doing yourself and other sufferers on the spectrum a disservice. #autismspectrum

Breaking the chains of imprinting in #autismspectrum disorders.
The only difference with the "Four Dimensions of Spacetime" is that Physics is hard for most people to understand; while the "Four Dimensions of Autism" is easy to grasp if we let go of our preconceived notions and prejudices. #Autism #Autistic #ActuallyAutistic #AutismSpectrum
If you are a person anywhere on the autism spectrum, you may experience "Justice Sensitivity" and if you're like me, you may find it difficult to understand how so many people don't and how this could possibly be the norm.
