Why I love living in an art village, reason #1052

There’s always a new place to grab coffee! 🤩

Oh, and apparently our village has some new artwork on the walls as well. Who knew?! 🧑🏽‍🎨

PS. Wife knew. In fact… everyone knew. Except me. 🤷‍♂️🌻

Okay Bluesky, we know how important it is to name and #shame intolerant and toxic people. We need a word for people intolerant of those on the #Autism spectrum. It needs to end in the suffix “-phobe.” Give me some ideas. #autistic #help #ableism #actuallyautistic #intolerance #autismawareness

For some people, asking “how was your day?” is a low stress way to start a conversation. I found that often what the other person wants is connection, not information about your day, though they’re using that as a starting point to get a connection. 1/2

Autism Acceptance vs Awareness: Is There a Difference? Autism Acceptance vs Awareness - is there a difference? Let’s delve into the world of autism advocacy and find out more.

Personally I prefer 'awareness', as I feel 'acceptance' means to accept the status quo.

But, potatoes/potAToes. If it helps people learn, understand and embrace it's good in my book. ✊🏽🌻

Rest is not... Rest is not optional. It is not laziness. It is not a luxury. It is not giving in. Rest is a survival necessity. All living beings need rest and restoration ...

A digital illustration in a high-fantasy art style featuring the character Skeletor from Masters of the Universe. 

He stands centrally, portrayed with a muscular, metallic-grey body and his iconic yellow skull face hooded in dark fabric. He wears ornate black armor with a red gem at the center of his chest. His right hand holds a tall staff, while his left hand is clawed and outstretched.

The background is a chaotic, volcanic landscape with flowing lava, jagged floating rocks, and a hazy, smoke-filled sky. 

Across the top and bottom of the image, bold white sans-serif text in an "Impact" font reads: 

"THERE'S SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL ABOUT REALIZING YOU SURVIVED WHAT ONCE FELT IMPOSSIBLE."

I am hoping to remove the stigma of using children’s products as an adult and it does not make you less of a person. Let me know in the comments of what children’s items you use.

There’s a lot of cultural messaging that says part time work isn’t good enough. And a lot of it really comes down to a narrow focus on productivity as the only measure for personal worth. 1/3

New (revised from 2013) blog post. This is about the double standards autistic people are held to and how they're microscopically analyzed for social missteps while their neurotypical counterparts can get away with damn near anything.

For me, autism looks like doodling during class and/or staring out the window at a beautiful tree to better absorb the teacher's words. #actuallyautistic #AutismAwarenessMonth

Many of you don't realize that a neurodivergent person works along side you. That person you consider to be quiet, different, weird, odd or a rule follower is just trying to get through a days work by all their means.

At the seaside and on the boardwalk (wooden floor next to the beach), Mrs. Eddant sits down cross-legged (left leg over the right leg) on a turquoise bench (with a decal of one big bunny and three smaller bunnies on it), happily winking with her right eye. She wears blue shorts, a red shirt with a rainbow infinity printed on it, dark red shoes and bunny ears on her head. It's daytime, with clouds seen in the sky. A bunny can be faintly seen in one of the clouds. A text box on the upper-right corner says "Happy Easter!"

I was recently asked if Autism Speaks has reformed to the point of being a good organization.

I'm still seeing some iffy stuff, like claims that ABA is all better now and elevating problematic voices. But does anyone have any good sources or information? #AskingAutistics #ActuallyAutistic

A vertical meme featuring a grainy, black-and-white sketch of the Mothman—a famous cryptid from West Virginia folklore—with large feathered wings and glowing red eyes—positioned in the center. 

The background is a blurry, multicolored "tie-dye" pattern of red, blue, green, and yellow. 

Bold white text with black outlines at the top and bottom reads: "

"It’s Autism Awareness Month 
Yall about to become very aware of me."

At the top of the image Instagram handle, cuddlycryptids, is shown.
