People like to claim that autistics are bad at communicating and like, my dude, the problem does not lie with us, it lies with the web of manipulation and lies and passive aggression and ulterior agendas that you weave around yourselves instead of just doing what we do, which is saying what we mean.

I couldn't understand my second daughter for such a long time, but I admired her creativity, stubbornness, independence.

She was 7 when she started having meltdowns at school. I researched and discovered she is autistic, and that I am too. Suddenly I understood her completely. She was just like me

They talk about a huge sudden increase in neurodiversity, but I'm watching a #TOTP from 1979 and in this one episode alone there are *at least* 3 artists we now know have #ADHD, #autism, etc, we just didn't know it at the time.

Why solar power is the only viable power source in the long run Not only is solar more than capable of supplying all the world’s energy, in the long term it is the only power source that won’t fry the planet

"0.3 per cent of the world’s land area – yes, just the land – would be needed to meet the current energy demand from solar alone, which is LESS THAN THE CURRENT LAND FOOTPRINT OF FOSSIL FUEL INFRASTRUCTURE."

One of the ways that LLM-authored code improves productivity is by merely SAYING it does things. It's way faster than the whole time-consuming process of actually doing things. This is real code someone sent to me for review. A screenshot of a code editor. The line numbers are in the lefthand column, running from 121 to 125. There is a comment that says "Verify packages were created and check sizes" Then line 123 says echo Verifying Lambda packages were created... and Line 124 says echo checkmark emoji colon All Lambda packages verified successfully. There is no line in here that actually did anything.

Why create a single universal device when they can sell you 3 🤷

No brush, no pencil. Just a typewriter.

Hot take: the ideal stim activity is a musical instrument. Repetitive, tactile, very *very* deep range of extremely small things to selectively pay attention to across several senses, annoys the hell out of neurotypicals.

Highly recommend stimming, loudly.

I hate John Howard.
I am irreparably disappointed in Albo.
I hate hearing Albo boasting about his govt's achievements (while he does nothing to stop a genocide) as much as I hated hearing Howard boast (while he waged war on Iraq). #auspol #RecognisePalestine #FreePalestine #ZionismIsNotJudaism

I want to do a 🧵 about the Sidney Sweeney thing, because it's *extremely* revealing & educational.

First, to be clear: I could not give less of a shit about the details -- the ad, the rhetoric, the jeans, her boobs, whatever. Good lord, who cares.

Let's look at the *structure* of the episode.

"I spent decades thinking I just wasn’t trying hard enough. That I was lazy, cold, selfish, too intense, too odd. But really, I was just The Boy Who Couldn’t Pretend and shouldn’t have had to...

I do know this: I’m not putting the mask back on."

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

Sounds like something I'd do, so probably yes?

Although I'd be more likely to not start a book so I can read it on my trip. My favourite time to read is while travelling

You weren’t “bad at life”.

You were trying to live in a world that never made space for your brain.

You weren’t “failing”.

You were adapting - to noise, to pressure, to expectations that made no sense.

You weren’t “emotionally immature”.

You were masking grief so deep it didn’t have words yet.

Today is my birthday (turning 29), which is the only time all year that I ask for a repost 🌿
I hope you get lost in fantasy worlds as much as I do 🔮

Motherfucking wind farms…

Thankfully we have another term of Labour allowing the country to steadily slide backwards instead of the coalition pushing it down.

Such a pity they don't seem remotely interested in fixing anything the Libs broke...

Found this on TikTok and it made me emotional ❤️

Artists create universes from nothing.

Being an animator is an intimate understanding of life, environments, physics, what it MEANS to be alive, and the ability to convey the beauty within our world in seconds.

Very few things are as embarrassing as learning to set boundaries for the first time as an undiagnosed autistic person in your 30s.

Haha, so true!

Unfortunately I learned my wife really didn't like me having boundaries.

Fortunately I no longer have a wife 😁

Adulthood is realizing that when neurotypicals say "give 100%" the actually mean "give 30% but act like it's 200%"

I grew up in 2 cities, and moved to a very small country town 17 years ago to be close to my partners family.

I yearn for the anonymity of big cities. Here, no matter where I go, I have to remember so many names, make constant conversation 😳

Can't wait to back to the city once kids finish school

This has plagued me for my whole life. What I find helps when I have a really big problem is to write it down, get it out of my head.

Music playing when going to sleep calms my brain & crowds out the thoughts.

Podcasts during cooking & chores, I learn something and shut my brain up
