Autastic has been around for 8 yrs. Thru the pandemic. Thru times when I had $0 to fund it relying on member donations to keep community doors open. Autistic Twitter was amazing but with everyone scattered, I can't find #AutisticBIPOC. TikTok & IG are inaccessible so IDK. Maybe it's time to stop?

Lawdy. Got a big birthday coming up. Feeling all kinds of ways about it. Still defaulting to measuring my life against standards that exclude me. Still measuring my life against the "potential" of my "gifted" youth. My brain knows all this is utter trash and yet here we are. The Kool-Aid is powerful

I really wish more people were dedicated to be kind, regardless of being nice, rather then trying to be nice but skipping being kind entirely. Nice is a cool bit of flavor text. Kind is fucking essential.
