I didn't 'fake autism to be quirky' I incorporated quirky into my autistic personality to fake neurotypicalism

This is a talk for ADHDers from an NT—not more “have you tried trying??”, but instead understanding and love ❤️

There was a time, pre-Elon, when Twitter was great for breaking news. A major event is unfolding in New Orleans, and I can barely find it here.

it’s a good time to check your settings for auto-playing videos, there are some horrific ones on the tl today 😔

Racist white people think laws apply to everyone but them.
AUDHD PPL!! How many of you have a lot of special interests (SI)? & do u have hyperfixations unrelated to ur SIs, or are they connected? I find that a lot of us have more SIs than non-ADHD ASDers, & more specific hyperfixationd than allistic ADHDers, so i’m curious how true it is
76%I have more than 2 SIs
24%I have 1-2 at a time/ever

Autism is a very wild developmental disorder. Its like the wild mushroom of disorders because you dont know what you about to get out the muthafukka.
➡️ it’s not gossip unless it’s malicious. rather, it’s de-briefing to learn continuously about neuronormative interactions & personalities. it’s a key self-accommodation, esp for autistic people 🌈💫

She never should have even been in a position to get killed on the job. Our elders should be taken care of, not worked to death.

Last new @unstandardizedE episode of 2023! Talking to a group of brilliant students about the way they were unfortunately mistreated at a conference when presenting on race and language. They're out there doing the work.
Enjoy, and happy holidays!

Controversial question: why is "the world is full of idiots", a common thread? Had a colleague tell me today - "I need you to defocus from people." She could see me get more and more and more frustrated the more people couldn't see what I was saying.
guy in my book who’s been evaluated for ‘every psych condition’:
“I wasn't depressed. Not anxious. I just lived with a simmering cauldron of rage and contempt for the assholes and idiots of the world, and that took up a lot of my time.”
…so they missed the autism then 👀😏
