Do you find it funny that all of your friends are neurodivergent? Turns out, it may not just be a coincidence…

Vaccines do not cause autism.

Keep saying things that have been demonstrated by robust science and are the subject or organised disinformation. Don’t just ignore the attempts to brainwash.

Autistic individuals are also at increased risk for traumatic life events, sexual assault, and death by suicide. Thus, being Autistic is a risk factor for numerous mental health disorders and identifying this risk should be considered medically necessary.

Was just told I don’t look autistic… 🚨Reminder, autism and spectrum disorders do not have a standard: look, gender, style, race, age, personality, behaviour etc. Believing so is perpetuating stereotypes that are harmful to all folks in the neurodivergent community.

Having an autistic sense of justice in today’s political climate feels like standing in a hurricane without shelter. The need to 'fix' the unfairness is overwhelming, but the system is so broken it’s crushing. Staying informed is painful; yet staying silent feels impossible.

If Elon Musk's salute was completely innocent, he should come out and clarify that.

Instead of calling out Democrats for causing hysteria, he should recognize the harm he caused to the Jewish community.

Getting tested for Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) is sadly a challenging process. Here is how my doctor diagnosed:l me:

1) Rule out all other possibilities
2) In-depth review of presenting symptoms and history
3) I respond well to treatment

I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.
