So Mark Meadows has testified. Anyone check the Bedminster walls for ketchup?

Was deeply engaged in a difficult conversation today when a book caught my attention across the room. “Is that Unmasking Autism? I read that earlier this year.” It was an optional opening for optional disclosure. It changed the questions he felt comfortable asking, changed how I provided education, and it ended be a deeply satisfying and helpful exchange. Today was a real win. #autistic #autism @bookstodon

Being alone is often viewed badly by society. There is constant pressure from the media, family, friends, virtually everything around you to pair up. That you can't be complete without a partner. That wishing to be alone indicates some sort of deficit on your part. And yet for me it is the only way I can truely relax and be myself. At times in my life I've felt bad about myself because of that. But now, knowing I'm autistic, I realise how important it is for me and how suited I am for it. Amd that, for me at least, it is the only way to be.

Backer Cracker. Sounds accurate. What

If you can’t handle me in my flip flops and socks, you won’t be able to handle me in my nylons and crocs

A neighborhood being walkable isn't just about having stores & parks nearby, etc.

It is also about women feeling safe when they walk around in the neighborhood.

Thank you Willow for showing me I can be nerd, queer and powerful 💖

Still can't get over the time my dog got brain freeze and her pupils narrowed and her jaw slacked and she just stared at me. Then she spat out the ice cream on my foot.

45ish? 😆
I knew I was different all through childhood, but I learned to mask fairly well. Back then, unless you were a major disruption they just used euphemisms like "he marches to his own drummer". I was perfectly comfortable with my self-applied description, "a bit of a weirdo", but that's probably not ideal either.

34. Learning has been so empowering. I now know how to recognize and avoid burnout and bad sensory experiences, which is literally life changing. I've been able to review my childhood and see my past self with more compassion and understanding. There's been a lot of healing going on lately.

It sure would have been nice to have this knowledge earlier, but I'm so grateful to have it now. 💜

hey guys turns out it’s totally safe to google “wet bareback voyeur doggy big d” at work
