As someone who is actually autistic, and who has worked with the autistic community for a very very long time, defending Musk’s hand motion as “autism” is absolute bullshit and a complete insult.

Any advice for getting your body out of fight or flight mode?

I think the hardest part about my field of work is combating all the opinions of neurotypical people making decisions for the neurodiverse.

Taking care of a sick child when you’re an emetophobe is horrible. I don’t know how people do this 😭

Last Christmas is my favorite Christmas song, so I will find a way to make you lose Whamageddon if you tell me that you play.

I really don’t fine the financial and social demands of the holidays fun at all. I’m drowning.

ADHD paralysis hitting me hard today. I have SO much to do and I want to do NONE of it.

The other character in Green Eggs and Ham’s name is Guy-I-Am?

Shout out to every other chorus kid who had to ding dong while the sopranos did the cool part of Carol of the Bells.

That ding donging was a lifeskill, damn it.

Nobody:
Me: “Can we talk about the Wicked movie?”

I am so sick of dealing with insurance providers. The fact that insurance gets to overrule my clinical medical recommendation is wild to me even after well over a decade in my field. And the hoops you have to jump through to fight it? No wonder people just give up.

I truly don’t think I realized this was a carbon copy of Twitter.

No idea if I’ll ever actually use this, but figured I would try it out!
