One of my favourite books EVER. Probably explains a lot. If you didn't ever read her adult fiction it's also very worthwhile.

Non-autistic parents and professionals are lobbying for the term "profound autism." But autistic people themselves think the label is dangerous & will lead to autistic people with more needs getting less help. In @autisticadvocacy.org's #ProfoundAutism toolkit: autisticadvocacy.org/the-profound...

The “Profound Autism” Label Hurts Autistic People
Functioning labels don’t help autistic people get what we need. They hurt us. Recently, some people have started using a new functioning label called profound autism.

It always struck me as an underappreciated consequence for descendants of enslaved people not to be able to trace a family history. I am very glad that Ancestry has made slavery records from the 19th century searchable. It's a good thing I think, way overdue. www.ancestry.co.uk/search/colle...

@adhd-alien.bsky.social has written/drawn an amazing book, which left me crying in many places at how beautiful it is and how seen I felt while not leaving me feeling left out when my own experience has been different. This is a book that I think a lot of people would benefit from reading. 5 stars.

Yeah, it's really weird. I think Vinted does weird things with its searches too as often stuff comes up wrong on searches for me and other things I know are listed do not come up on a search I expect to see them in.

Genuinely not sure whether to laugh or cry. I mean, it's funny but it's not wrong and it's so fucking bleak. You want to shout "these idiots, their money will mean nothing when the earth burns!" but... it will. Because it will keep them alive for longer, and that's all they care about.

“Who knows what other childhood curiosities are quietly growing into world-changing ideas right now in bedrooms, backyards and notebooks across the globe? The next big breakthrough might not come from a high-tech lab. It might come from a 10-year-old who just can’t stop wondering about butterflies”💖

A Japanese boy noticed his butterflies seemed to recognise him. He spent two years designing an experiment and proved that metamorphosis does not erase memories formed during the caterpillar stage.
