I don't want to mask my autism, I want to flourish and radiate passion and love and live like a soul personified.
January 20th hasn’t ended, but this year is unfolding in so many layers already.

Everyone has a special part of their place dedicated to things they need to throw out but don't know how
New Year’s resolution: Don’t be afraid to match energy when someone is disrespectful—if they’re shocked, that’s on them.
This Christmas, if you spent in your bed. Your rest it’s important, and the universe is happy you got the chance to recharge even if it felt lonely. During this time our bed is our home where you find comfort. 🏡

Please take care and take all the time you need to rest.

As the next administration admits to taking away the Department of Education this will hit hard the special education systems put in place from this… hard
At the point where every time people ask what I do for a living it’s 1. Live with a chronic illness and then 2. Then I have a job. So I’m working about 80hours a week.
This!!
Black women and femmes deserve to be appreciated in healthcare. In fact, that’s the bare minimum.
Someone: “Aww are you feeling sick?”

I love seeing Blue Sky constantly eliminate the ableism and toxic medical dismissal and harm that many approaches in medicine and therapy have done. I feel more informed than I have been in a long time 🖤
Sending love to everyone on Bluesky with family and friends in Syria tonight.
Help! Couples are in Barnes and nobles now (jokes lol)
"What is often difficult for able-bodied people to understand is that adjusting to life as a newly disabled person isn’t just a matter of finding the right care...Although those are crucial necessities, becoming disabled is a total identity shift."

At least we are all United in this feeling
The SCUM Manifesto is such an intriguing read I’m almost done with it, and now I’m reading over what happened to Valerie Solanas and her backstory. DAMN!
