The Autistic Bookkeeper

Corporations are and will continue to financially choke small businesses. As a business owner, you should be connecting with other small businesses. We cannot survive this on our own. As a consumer, focus on shopping small business.

The choice for small business owners right now to survive is exploitation or collaboration.

Interested in a body doubling zoom session to work on your passport application? My client and I came up with this idea to host some free zoom sessions for folks who want to work on passport applications. Let me know if you’re interested!

If anyone is interested in trading services, I’m looking for help with advertising and marketing.

Folks could offer and barter services and we wouldn’t need to raise nearly as much capital to grow a small business. I acknowledge not everything can be done through support networks, but a LOT can.

Businesses owners do not typically operate all on their own. They have folks helping with advertising and marketing, product development, finance, etc. Though a lot of businesses require funding for this support. What if we had a small business mutual aid network?

If you are interested in building community, I highly recommend “Mutual Aid” by Dean Spade. It’s a shorter book PACKED with incredible community building information. Take that info and build strong community with your loved ones

Accrual bookkeeping records transactions that affect your business, regardless if they’ve affected your bank account (yet). This provides a MUCH more accurate view of your finances. You can also easily run reports on open invoices and bills.

What is accrual bookkeeping (also known as double entry) and how is it different from cash bookkeeping? Cash bookkeeping only records transactions if they directly affect your bank account. But what about keeping track of invoices and bills not paid yet? That’s where accrual bookkeeping comes in

“Rectifying unjust inequalities will always bring pain to those who benefited from such inequalities. This pain will inevitably be experienced by some as oppression.” Jason Stanley

The argument from the ‘marketplace of ideas’ model for free speech works only if the underlying disposition of the society is to accept the force of reason over the power of irrational resentments and prejudice”

How Fascism Works by Jason Stanley

“In politics, and most vividly in fascist politics, language is not used simply to convey information but to illicit emotion.

It’s infuriating how people are now using autism as a scapegoat for a nazi billionaire. And probably a lot of those people don’t even know their history of autism and its connection with nazis.

I bought Redmonds re-lyte because it was recommended and more affordable than other brands. I like it, thought it seems a little harder to mix.

A lot of the 4am club are coming to terms with the truth that MAGA won. We should be welcoming them back to the fight instead of being mean. They aren’t the focus here. Where do you think people go when they get turned away? They tune out or run the other way.

Like many of you, I am EXTREMELY concerned for our future. I’m focusing my energy on building online communities and networks where we can support each other in a safe environment. I’m concerned and focused on the neurodivergent, queer and disabled communities.

“Historically, fascist leaders have often come to power through democratic elections. But the commitment to freedom, such as the freedom inherent in the right to vote, tends to end with that victory”
