I’m off to the Blue Light breakfast at work before Newcastle Pride march. Celebrating LGBTQ people who work for the emergency services. The police have had to withdraw, due to a court ruling brought by one of JKR’s cronies. (1)

Amazing day out, got the train to Alnmouth and cycled back, had the best laughs even though the wind was brutal at times.

Visited Northumberlandia yesterday, building our miles up. Had a crash on the way through a very narrow tunnel, now covered in bruises.

As I finish my ‘weird’ book by @robinince.bsky.social on the metro, (I have been reading a book club book in between) I think how much of the book has resonated with me. Diagnosed #ADHD a year & #autism a month, I feel much more at home in myself. I know now why I didn’t fit in since childhood, why

Another interesting evening with @pintofscience.uk with Louis and Tiggy. Some of it quite sad though. The stereotypes and stigma around autism coming from academia and filtering through into the media. The latest from America saying autism can be cured and these people will never find employment,

@pintofscience.uk was really interesting talking about paediatric brain tumours, especially as that’s what I’m testing today. Brings pieces of the puzzle together. #genetics

Gorgeous day to be sent home from work due to a gas leak. Crochet all day in the sun, then a sunny evening ride along the river.

Got myself a 360 degree camera for cycling due to a few dodgy drivers around. But today I messed around with it, edits are crap, I’m still working out the fancy effects. The main thing is it will catch drivers all around me, not just in front.

May is Ehlers Danlos awareness month. Eli was diagnosed with hypermobile EDS a few months ago after years of pain, fatigue and being dismissed by Drs. It’s not just about being bendy, it can affect the heart, the eyes, dislocated joints, pain, fatigue, excess bleeding and bruising, and tends to (1)

I could have written this, typing monkeys in my head, wish they would stop. Random jumping conversations, the joy of being with other neurodivergent people which I have only recently discovered. I don’t have to conform, I can be random chaotic me @robinince.bsky.social

My brain never stops with adhd, it’s tiring. Completely hyper focussed on the craft stalls I’m doing as @mimishouseofpretty.bsky.social . What should I make, will people like them, will they sell, what do people like, can’t find a mushroom pattern I like, what colours should I use…? It’s exhausting

2 weeks off the bike after a suspected TIA, was good to be back out. Not allowed on the roads until a month has passed, so some juddery surfaces.

Fab afternoon listening to @robinince.bsky.social talk about his new book. So much of it rang true as a late diagnosed AuDHDer. Extra points to him for recognising my T-shirt and the relevant message in my book. Took the metro the long way round so I could read as much of it as possible.

How excited am I for this, considering I first preordered it last year, not realising it wasn’t released until 2025. And not being in when the postman tried to deliver this week. Just in time for seeing @robinince.bsky.social tomorrow in Whitley Bay

Proud that I saw so many people I know today at the trans rights protest in Newcastle. It shows I work with lovely people and have good hearted friends. An amazing turn out standing up for the rights of fellow human beings 🏳️‍⚧️ #transrightsarehumanrights #protest #newcastle

Non binary awareness week, I know a few non binary people including my fabulous Eli. Non binary and gender non conforming people have always been around throughout history, but we hear about them more now due to internet and social media.

2 ADHDers watching Dr Who before meds kick in ‘what’s happening’ ‘pause it a minute’ ‘who’s that’ ‘look at this on my phone’ ‘pause it a minute’ ‘let’s get breakfast’ ‘ what an awful spoon to use in a program that’s watched by NDs’ ‘I wouldn’t use that spoon’

Been awake since 5.30, not sure if it’s the light, the cats, the hay-fever or the ADHD meds being efficient.

The ADHD is strong today, clicked pay on Etsy before realising the postage is from America, and left a group chat by accident 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

£58 for a month of generic ADHD meds, as they can’t get hold of Concerta, that would be over £100 a month. GP won’t do shared care.

We’re camping. Just went to get a light out of a box, moved water off the top of it, lost my vape and looked for it, lost my mouth guard looked for it, found a charger for my phone, moved my shoes, went to get into bed then went ohhh I wanted a light . How did I not know about the adhd before now

Pre ordered @robinince.bsky.social new book. My recent late diagnosis of ADHD is a confusing time, do I really want meds, will they change me? Is my brain broken? This is my diagnosis treat.

Trying this as an alternative to Twitter, hopefully it’s a lot nicer place.
