Monotropism is a different concept from inertia, though they are likely related.

I just hope all the work we put in pays off and they actually change how they do things.

Not paused any more. Fully stopped. I was surprised given the long silence (we submitted the report in September 2023), but I think it’s a good decision.

A reminder that Judy Singer is NOT the originator of "neurodiversity": "While Singer published one early book chapter on the neurodiversity movement in 1999, she was only one of many working on theorising #neurodiversity, and certainly not the first."

I’m currently researching whether my game is useful as an educational tool for NTs and autistic people. I am not looking at the participants’ personal experiences in this study.
