Over intelligent NeuroDivergent proudly failing to conform to societal expectations.

Ppl think intelligence is a gift...

To be intelligent is to be misunderstood more often then not. It's thinking twice before u speak, it's having to over explain, it's understanding & seeing what others don't. To be intelligent, is to be lonely.

Ignorance is the gift...

Freedom always comes with its twin - moral obligation. As I walk the privileged suburb in which I live, I never forget my freedom is built on the pain of the 3.2 million living below the poverty line. And my moral obligation is to remind government of that. And hope they listen!

@victorklineTNL Interestingly, the entire early years literacy curriculum is taught audio sequentially. Yet visual spatial learners usually have higher fluid reasoning IQ. The outcome - gifted individuals w poor grammar! Blame the education system 🤷‍♀️

@lesstenny The walking dead 😱

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@victorklineTNL So what I'm reading is that you dared to share facts & speak the truth, when most other parties won't and the privileged powers that be, didn't like it 🤔

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@victorklineTNL Currently watching 'House of Cards' and wondering if Albo is a version of Francis Underwood, playing the card of a less fortunate boy who claims to understand poverty while also failing to put through legislation that backs up him having any kind of empathy for those exact ppl.

@markdreyfusQCMP Does the initiative include clauses for children with disability because as it currently stands DCP (or atleast in WA) openly admit they are not trained in the protecting or neglect of children with disability.

@DoylerMartino @victorklineTNL @maxxjensen Ironically the DSM V is written by high profile psychiatrists who also sign up to the neoliberal agenda in an attempt to control society by way of 'othering'. To be labelled with a mental health issue is not the insult societal sheep assume.

[Victor Kline @victorklineTNL]

When neoliberal governments like our Liberal and Labor governments say they can’t afford benefits for the underprivileged, it reminds me of the drunk who, having pissed his pay packet up against the wall, says he can’t afford shoes for the kids.

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@KateEmerson88 They definitely can't! My daughters plan got cut under Labor. The cuts to her funding force me to continue performing excessive unpaid Labor in the home to the point I effectively can't return to paid employment & my career. So much for being a gov for women!

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

37yrs old & last night was the first time a bar tender has cut me off from the bar 🤔... I'm now convinced that bar staff need to be taught the difference between an over exhausted Mother who can't keep her eyes open past 9pm & being drunk 😆🥂

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@victorklineTNL It's also about lack of funding to NDIS support coordination which essentially is the gov way of denying woman the right to return to work. Assigning us a life of unpaid labour in the home, without choice.

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@bikkylover @MichaelSpring17 Yep serious question. Does any other profession or trade lose their licence when managing a mental health diagnosis? Or do they just take personal leave as needed while undergoing treatment?

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@EmRusciano literally brought me to tears 😭! Smashed this speech for the Neurodivergent community at the National Press Club. Amazing, inspiring woman with a good splash of ADHD humour. #NPC @PressClubAust @billshortenmp

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@MichaelSpring17 This is fantastic news! But I'm confused as to why having a mental health diagnosis would result in anyone not being able to practise in the first place? Is that not a stigmatised view by Qld Bar asn?

[Sam Connor @criprights]

4/ This harms not just the child, nor the community, nor individuals but the rights movement. When you profess to be the holder of knowledge but it doesn’t come from lived experience, it is misrepresentation. When you are selling hope to people with no hope, it’s fraud.

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

Coercive control includes the act of men FORCING women to give up their career to meet their children's needs without a choice. If a woman wants to work, she is entitled to work. Career sacrifice should be 50/50 nothing less! #WomensRights @AmandaRishworth @markdreyfusQCMP

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@Anthony_htimS @Objectivebroker Yep! After my divorce from a 10yr marriage where my X had coercive control with every financial asset in his name I'll be fcked if I ever share my personal financial details with a man ever again & I'll be facing off with Centrelink at the AAT if they think they can make me 😆

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@markdreyfusQCMP @AmandaRishworth Also pls educate the WA Police on the fact that many women who suffer DV will have mental health dx as a response & to then dismiss their report on those grounds is discrimination. Discrimination the AHRC tells me they can not address or even investigate. #educateWAPOL

[Audrey Rose @AudreyRoseND]

@markdreyfusQCMP @AmandaRishworth Please start be educating the police (especially in WA) where women who attempt to report this are not only refused assistance to escape. If they cry while relaying the abuse, they are accused of having mental health issues and taken to the local hospital for assessment.

@drgeorgethecrip @jennycrosbie @criprights @CydaAu @BenGauntlettDDC @Graemeinnes Unless it's changed, Medicare cover 5 sessions from an AHP. IF you qualify for a 'care plan' with approx $50 rebate back from a $193 an hour session. Speech prior to NDIS cost $90 an hour. Private health rebate is about the same. Public waitlists for speech are atleast 12mnths.
