There is no ‘teacher shortage’. There are thousands of qualified experiences teachers who are no longer teaching. There’s a shortage of respect and proper compensation for teachers allowing them to actually teach.

I am looking for someone whom I can connect with on multiple levels. His languages really don't matter but if he were to speak a language I don't speak I'd probably study it 24/7 no matter what language it is as languages are an important way to connect with someone. – at Ocaña, España

Autistic kids are taught to look strangers in the eyes (even if it hurts) hug their relatives (even if it hurts) wear certain clothes (even if it hurts)…
Autistic kids are constantly told that their bodily autonomy is superseded by what other people want.

Babe, are you okay? You’ve barely immersed in your target language today.

Conjecture: a disproportionate number of linguists are autistic (like myself). They are attracted to linguistics in part because they are able to approach language with a kind of distance—as people with a less intuitive sense of language and sociality—that is exceptional.

Learning to speak with the words that you know and navigate around words which you're missing is a powerful language learning skill.
Sometimes we don't need more vocabulary, we just need to practice speaking more so that we can construct sentences on the fly.

Mijn dochter (6) had gezegd dat ze op het vrij podium van het schoolfeest mopjes zou vertellen en ze was nerveus maar ze STOND er en de micro was kapot dus vertelde ze met perfecte timing en articulatie in een MEGAFOON van “Hoe gaan bijen op schoolreis? Met de buzz” MIJN KIND JA

The Autistic experience of asking a clarifying question and being told you’re rude

Being autistic is apologising for being right, having read the situation correctly but neglected to pretend to be duped by the false narrative presented by others, and having not participated in the perpetuation of the false narrative by failing to dutifully carry on the charade.

It’s honestly wild to me how much schools set autistic kids up to fail when I don’t know a single #actuallyautistic person who doesn’t love learning. Like when we hang out together it’s “did you know” after “did you know”, followed by some excited googling

The autistic urge to use 100 words to say something that that could be said in less than 10 words because you figure the extra 90 words of explanation will reduce the risk of misinterpretation and conflict.
