Hey, if you struggle with self-image/body issues like I do, saying out loud “Aging is a privilege that not everyone gets to have” helps me recenter myself and releases those negative thought gremlins when I hate what I see in the mirror.

Hope this helps someone else the way it helps me. 🫶🏻

"But Dr. Amy, why do you support self-diagnosis? Shouldn't people get an official assessment to be sure?"
Well, some people are concerned that they might get put on government lists if autism is in their official medical record.
"That sounds kind of like catastrophizing, doesn't it?"

The Target across the way from us is inside a shopping center. When I've walked by each weekend, there have been older black folks handing out pamphlets and flyers to people with this messaging, which is also plastered around the neighborhood.

It's a base that is both affected and motivated. 💖

Two flyers on a light pole.

Target racism, boycott Target.

We don't buy where we're not respected. No Diversity? No Equity? No Inclusion? No Dollars!

A comic about my beliefs.

Meg says “in case my beliefs weren’t clear” suddenly she’s surrounded by ‘beliefs’, wearing sunglasses. The text reads:
-black lives matter
-stop Asian hate
-trans rights are human rights
-women can wear hijabs if they want
-birth control and abortions should be available everywhere
-fat people deserve love & respect
-we are in stolen land
-refugees deserve support and safety
-stand with Ukraine
-disability right date human rights
-support the people of Sudan, Congo & Palestine”

This kind of violence is called “social murder”

It’s a term that is going to be much more common under the current administration.

WIKIPEDIA
Social murder

Social murder (German: sozialer
Mord) is a concept used to describe an unnatural death that is believed to occur due to social, political, or economic oppression, instead of direct violence.

"We’re facing a massive public health crisis because a disturbing number of people believe that autism is worse than illness or death. My neurology is the boogeyman behind a completely preventable plague in the making." @fodderfigure.bsky.social, at TPGA:

Square Canva graphic. The background is an antique illustration of white children with pronounced cases of measles and scarlet fever.

Large white all-caps text in the center reads, "I’m Autistic, And Believe Me, It’s A Lot Better Than Measles."

Smaller white all-caps text underneath reads, "Sarah Kurchak, at TPGA"

Even smaller white all-caps text at the bottom reads, "@ThinkingAutism" and "tinyurl.com/AutisticBetterThanMeasles"
