A huge thanks to everyone at #Umbraco #MVPSummit and #Codegarden who attended my ND workplace talk!
It was the first time publicly sharing my story after my diagnosis last year and I was super nervous but you all made it feel safe. So many reached out with your own journeys and reminded me why these conversations matter.
This community is truly #Umbazing 🙏
#followerpower A while ago someone posted a news article/study about #neurodiversity in terms of "social chess" at the work place --- sadly I can't find it anymore - if anyone still has the link (maybe from the #Guardian iirc) I'd be grateful.
Remind yourself that it’s okay for needs and abilities to differ from the perceived norm.

Finally got my result for my #neurodiversity assessment back.
97-99th percentile for both #Autism Spectrum Disorder and #ADHD.
Diagnosed with both at 33. It feels so great to *finally* have certainty.
PBS Kids' Carl the Collector is its first series centered on an autistic character. Created with neurodiverse voices at every level, the show provides both a mirror for autistic children and a window for their peers to better understand autism.

Are autistic characters in media breaking stereotypes or stuck in old tropes? From Rain Man to Heartbreak High, we explore what’s changed, what hasn’t, and why authentic representation matters for real inclusion. #Neurodiversity #Autism

I think the greatest description of being neurodiverse is david byrnes magnificently complex and richly orchestrated 9 minute version of a song where he croons 'Oh I'm wicked and I'm lazy'. Chefs kiss.

I've only just read the full table of contents for the Double Empathy Reader, and wow what a lot of great thinkers, writing on fascinating and important topics!
£60, but every university library and many public ones ought to stock it...

The Double Empathy Reader | Pa...
As a society, we often think of honesty and lying as an either-or thing. And so, because we don’t want to be deceived we think that we want honesty.
Yet we might not be in an emotional or mental or spiritual position to be able to handle the truth.
Hey @NationalAutisticSocietyBot, An autist friend of mine works for you. He's currently off sick with stress, seeking another job.
Why? Ask any #autist to guess: #harassment and #persecution by fellow (NT) staff members. We have a right to expect better of you, #NAS!
Too much #ABA; not enough tolerance, care, or understanding. You are the National ⒶⓊⓉⒾⓈⓉⒾⒸ Society, for God's sake!
Such a pleasure speaking about neurodiversity, witchcraft, and changing the system in the sacred halls of @ChariteBerlin with the brilliant maryna makarenko and dr. lily martin. ✨ Thx for inviting us, discussing with us, and listening!

[P] And if this is offensive to you because you DO care? Get yourself checked for some other kind of neurotype (autism, ADHD, et cetera) because I can 100 psr cent assure you that you're not the immoral neurotype (neurotypical). I can guarantee this without a doubt in my mind.

[P] If I might be frank? I've always struggled with a negative view of neurotypicals, I'd always seen them as opportunistic parasites who're immorally selfish and lack consciousness and curiosity. It's a perspective that has only been strengthened by every interaction with neurotypicals. This latest incident though where they won't even stop hyping their Xbawks vidya? They're scum.

[P] I think this is worth a read again even five years later. It shows the kind of dopamine-fuelled opportunistic parasitism that the immoral neurotype—neurotypical—exhibits that isn't present in ADHD and autism.

[P] And in EVERY SINGLE CASE of hiverarchy, neurotypicals are lead by Dark Triad monsters. Have you fucking seen what our political system is like? And by that I mean every political system on earth, because neurodiversity is not the majority. The majority is the immoral neurotype, "neurotypical," and that's why the world is the way it is. It's why America has Trump right now.

[P] This is why I hate it when ADHD is mixed up with neurotypical hiverarchy. Studies have shown what I always suspected, that ADHD stands in solidarity with autism for actually having fucking morality. I mean, do you know what neurotypical is when you boil it down to its core essence? It's the neurotype of immorality. Immorality lets them "fit in" with Dark Triad monsters.

[P] The ResetEra forum is supposed to be left-wing, ehich makes me fucking laugh. If it was and they weren't just being opportunistic dopamine parasites, Xbox discussion would be banned outright and everyone wouldbe happy about that, but the truth is is that the consumerist drones of neurotypical hiverarchy don't care, and they won't ever care because: buy product > value life.

[P] This is wby I hate neurotypical hiverarchy. It's a mass of drones sans consciousness, sans curiosity, sans morality drones who're just (admittedly very clever) mimics driven by opportunistic dopamine feeding. It's impossible to get NT hiverarchy to care about this. You wanna try? Head over to ResetEra in the hype threads. And get ready to be ignored, or worse. It's hopeless.

[P] I wonder where the immoral depravity of neurotypical hiverarchy and its complete dismissal of the sanctity of life hits rock bottom? Hiverarchy knows MS is selling tech to the IDF to help them kill kids in Gsza, but the homunculi gotta have their vidya game. Now MS is selling the LAPD tech to profile arabs and muslims. So, Gaza and LA. Is that enough for the parasites to care? Nah.
