🌈 AuDHD isn’t just attention and sensory differences. Many of us live with a rich blend of Emotional Contagion, Frisson & Sensory-Emotional Sensitivity. Let’s stop pathologising the people who cry at sunsets, feel music like a memory, & mirror pain with compassion. #AuDHD #sensorysensitivity

GenX wasn't parented - we were disciplined. No one cared about our feelings. We were called lazy, talkative, impulsive, bossy. Incapable of finishing projects/courses. Don't forget the burnouts from "cosplaying being neurotypical" and Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria! www.facebook.com/share/r/1X6R...

I for one detest the idea of Scott Morrison receiving ANY award as his involvement in Australia was NOT OF SERVICE to it's people and it can be easily argued his actions caused both harm and death to many citizens from the heartless policies he enacted. chng.it/fMkVkVX56W

It's election day in Australia. Hoping #TemuTrump loses his seat and the LNP is annihilated in my seat of Whitlam and across the nation. Back to the 1950s with you.

This is a make or break election for Medicare. The choice is clear. Labor making it easier to see a GP for free, or Peter Dutton who tried to end bulk billing for good as Health Minister.

🚨 BREAKING: New study finds that OTHER PEOPLE existing is NOT, in fact, an attack on your way of life. More at 11... 👀 Tag someone who sees through the noise. 💬 What’s the most ridiculous fear-mongering headline you’ve seen? #LateStageCapitalism #FakeNews #Propaganda #StateMedia #Resist #foxnews
A digitally illustrated meme features a retro television set displaying a black-and-white, vintage-style news anchor with a forced smile. Inside a speech bubble, he says, 'Be Afraid!' Below him, bold text reads: 'Other People Exist.' The top of the image says 'CONSERVATIVE MEDIA be like…' in distressed, bold lettering. Surrounding the TV are logos of conservative media outlets—Fox News, OAN, Breitbart, and others—each crossed out in red. The background is a dystopian sunset with ominous clouds. The meme critiques fear-based conservative media tactics and propaganda, portraying them as stoking paranoia about diversity and societal change.

It's not a mystery why neurodivergent people tend to have neurodivergent kids—even if those kids' neurodivergence isn't exactly the same as the parents'. Spread the word. -SR, who is gazing at her own friends with so much love. #neurodiversity

some ways to generate electricity A) use sunlight to drive photosynthesis in plants, let plants die, wait ~100 million years, dig up fossilized plants, burn plants, use heat to boil water, use steam to drive a rotating turbine, use generator to make electrons B) use sunlight to make electrons

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

To be absolutely clear: RFK framing vaccines as the "cause" of Autism is eugenics. First and foremost its wrong by every scientific standard. But also theres an implication that we need to "cure" or prevent Autism. Neurodivergence is not a bad thing.

Our #sensorydifferences can make it harder for us to meet our nutritional requirements. Neurodivergent dietitians with lived experience understand this and can help in a neuro-affirming way. Adequate nutrition underpins ALL other physical therapies. Wish the #NDIS understood this!

‘It beggars belief that the Coalition claims Australia, which has no nuclear energy capability, could ship, build and integrate into the grid with no challenges, with a 50,000-strong nuclear workforce appearing by magic,’ writes Nicky Hutley #nuclear #auspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The Coalition’s nuclear costings and their rubbery assumptions take us back to being a climate pariah
Despite a clever comms strategy, there are significant credibility issues around the assumptions on which the cost estimates are based

Lipoedema (or #lipedema for my North American friends) is a debilitating condition that affects both physical and mental health. In Australia there's very little awareness, even by doctors.

I’ll repeat it as many times as I have to Self-identification is VALID if you need the ICD-10 code to get something you need, then I hope you can access the eval you deserve But if you don’t have use for the dx code please don’t waste your resources You don’t need our permission to believe it.

🚫 Don’t: “Everyone is a little autistic.” ✅ Do: “Autistic traits are not exclusive to Autistic people and it’s the cumulative constellation of traits that they have that fundamentally differs from the lived experiences of Non-Autistic people.” (A bit wordy, but maybe the nuance is worth it.)
