One time I got hungry in the middle of the night, was eating cold pizza, and accidentally tossed my phone into our recycling can along with the empty pizza box 🤦‍♀️💀

Exactly this To imply autistic people should be able to just figure out social cues if you are curious enough is extremely insulting

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

I don't blame you. I saw some other posts that I was raising my eye brows at.

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

Precisely. I am really curious if they're autistic. Because even if they were, that's still insensitive af to other autistic people.

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

So I ultimately ended up blocking this account because that post really bothered me It is just insensitive and ick to me Being curious enough is not gonna just magically make my brain or other autistic people understand social cues

A screenshot of a bluesky post from "ratlimit" that says:
i don't understand autistic people who over-identify with "having a hard time with social cues". it's actually extremely possible to master the unwritten rules of communication analytically—you just need to be curious.

I (Soulfully Neurodivergent) shared and quoted:
It's important to keep in mind here that we aren't a monolith. Some autistic people may be able to master that and some of us may not."

There's a mark on the wall from when IT happened every time I see it, it mocks me, a painful reminder

I am all for letting all the emotions out to process them, but I'm not even sure how to begin processing the events of the past couple of weeks

Messages I received from Norse goddess Freya in my dreams last night: 1. If someone is trying to pressure you into something, you don't have to go along with it. 2. Don't let other people get away with treating you bad. You can cut them off. You can minimize contact.

When someone compares you saying "the christians" to Trump saying "the blacks" One is very dehumanizing referring to a whole race as blacks The other, in this context, is making a general statement about so many christians using their religion to be bigots But sure, they're the same thing

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

If people seriously can't understand why others would be doubting that Christians support DEI, given how many of them have used their religion to be a bigot, tbh, wake the fk up I understand not ALL Christians are that way, but enough of them are to feel a discomfort around them in general

Autistic myself and I don't agree with it tbh. I just feel it has caused far too much harm. But I am only one person that can only speak for themselves.

Definitely! I don't identify as a woman though. I'm nonbinary.

This year, one thing has become very clear to me in multiple aspects of my life: Community is so important, and now, more than ever

Well meds aren't easily accessible to everyone so that is also a factor

I'm not sure who Taash is, but I'm glad it brought you that sense of validation 😊💜

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

Oh yeah I'm definitely gonna write about it or talk at some point, just gonna have to decide when the best time to let it all out is really lol

Do they think* Also sorry to hear you're sick and I hope you feel better soon

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 11/03/2025

I wonder if it's because people are just so used to saying that as a default response to anything? Or do you they think you're not "really sick" and just don't wanna come in? (Not saying that's what is happening! I agree people are freaking weird.) I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

I just had a major medical emergency happen in my family and have only just now had any time to process it But I feel like as soon as I allow myself the time and space to write about it, think about it etc. All of the thoughts and emotions are just gonna come pouring out with no sign of stopping

I'm with Matthew on this one... Asking someone to not use ableist language is not even comparable to being the grammar police 🙄

Vaccines don’t cause autism. Vaccines aren’t even associated with autism. The biggest predictor of autism? GENETICS. We have decades of data and millions of data points that to show this. This lie insults people with autism too — as if it’s an “adverse effect” of medicine. 1/

If I don't willingly let them out, they are gonna build and build To the point where the pressure gets so high, that I won't be able to choose when that pressure is released A closed door can only stay closed for so long once the room starts flooding (2/2)

I need to get the events of last week off my chest and onto paper But I fear how long it will take to close that door once I open it It needs to be opened There are so many thoughts behind it So many feelings (1/2)

When you realize you haven't posted or logged into Bluesky for a while so you make this post at 3 in the morning This year has been chaotic so far to say the fkn least 😭 I keep thinking "It's only March??" And "How is it already March??" At the same time 😭

I'm from the USA and it's just so rough over here right now 😓

Well, they shouldn't be political, but with how the world is... unfortunately they just are, sigh

When your husband half drag, half pulls you into your closet because he can tell how overstimulated you are and knows that quiet dark closet time will help 😅❤ Just autistic things lmao

How you feel right now is completely valid I am still trying to figure out a balance between staying informed but not to the point where it is sending me into constant meltdowns Kinda hard to do that though when this is so serious and dangerous

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 16/02/2025

I am seeing a lot of people upset at autistic pages for posting about politics and I'm just... like, our very existence IS political If you can't accept that, well, that's not our problem and you clearly have a lot to learn

Who else has seen the show Grimm? Love that show. Feeling a need for a rewatch at some point!

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Hm, I definitely understand this. Which traits are you referring to? I think one of mine is the rigid routine I need and how intense a change in that routine is that leads to meltdowns 😒🙃

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Oh yeah I know, I was just curious if it is a common experience to have a shutdown after a meltdown And that makes sense How would you describe the difference between an internalized meltdown and a shutdown?

130

Soulfully Neurodivergent ♾🏳️‍🌈( they/them) @soulfullynd.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

Also does anyone else really only seem to have a shutdown after you have a meltdown? I don't have many shutdowns, but when I do, it is almost ALWAYS right after a meltdown.
