Long shot, but if anybody in #Bath sees my off road mobility scooter out and about, or listed on fb, can you let me know? Stolen from my front garden overnight. HD Motorbike lock cut through with bolt-cutters. Because of my disability and being broke, was/is my only transport.

i hate it when a person says something like, โ€œhey iโ€™ve got to do blah blah blah and then iโ€™m going to call. i have to tell you something.โ€ do not keep an autistic person in suspenseโ€”we will literally not be able to function or move on until we know whatโ€™s next.



Good thread on #MonkeyPox #MPX transmission

"everyone's a little autistic" No, everyone is human. Autistic people are human, that's why you, another human, relate to us๐Ÿ™„

My son is 6 and didnโ€™t say a word until he was 4. This week out of nowhere he has started speaking in full, clear sentences. We have been having full blown conversations! If you told me this would happen a few years ago I would not have believed you. Heโ€™s amazing #Autism

My 1st solo-authored commentary/article is finally out! This paper was a labor of love as I wanted to share a rarely discussed perspective of autism that affects many other autistics of color across the African diaspora. Please read and enjoy!

The year is 2045. The first astronauts have landed on Mars. They find a cave with a human skeleton. And 4 words are written on the wall. What are the four words

This week the UK Government quietly removed โ€˜sexual and reproductive health and rightsโ€™ and โ€˜bodily autonomyโ€™ from an international statement on human rights. #abortionrights are in trouble

You might have seen this review in the news, which finds little or no evidence that low serotonin causes depression. The way itโ€™s being reported in parts of the press is misleading. Hereโ€™s why: (1/10) nature.com/articles/s4138โ€ฆ


Formal diagnosis is a privilege not many people have access to. I have been on the waiting list for assessment for three years. How do you propose I access any sort of support in the meantime? Plus, what exactly does this have to do with you? #SelfDXisValid #ActuallyAutistic

Itโ€™s become trendy to diagnose yourself as #autistic or โ€œ#Neurodivergentโ€ and I hate it. My life has never been easy #ActuallyAutistic
