They/Them. I'm interested in rewriting the narrative on Neurodiversity. Sharing, connecting and growing into my Bright Autistic Self ✨

Hello All Bright Shining peoples. Welcome to my first tweet. I'm Autistic and I like words. I enjoy having conversations about words and how we use them. I'm a deep thinker and have decided to share some of my thoughts with the community. #ActuallyAutistic #AutismCommunity

Everyone hyped about Daredevil teasers in #SheHulk but all I've been waiting for is seeing the amazing @Natehurdcomedy since the trailers as ManBull!! 🦬😤 #marvel #SheHulkAttorneyAtLaw

I have no idea what's going on with #facebook but I am glad to see some small savvy charities getting in on the action. Promoting awareness of different causes.

A Transgender persons brain activity shifts closer to their desired gender than the one assigned at birth prior to any HRT. Transgender people have their own phenotype Let that sink in. There's similar research out there have a look.

You know I'm getting sick of other people being so obsessed with Trans folks genitals (it's creepy). They never talk about the most important organ in the human body: The Brain. 1/2

You ever find yourself scrolling through social media and not realise your vision has glossed over and you've been disassociating for 2 hours? Yea that #ActuallyAutistic #AutisticShutdown #disassociation #AutisticOverwhelm

@TheGoodDeath I know it's not usually your content but I was wondering if you'd react to or play The Mortuary Assistant game?

Constantly checking all the weather apps to find out when it's cool enough to go to bed. (It'll be 4am 😭) #UKHeatwave2022

#ActuallyAutistic miscommunication of any kind is such a major trigger for me. Often tho I prefer to call it a Tolerance Barrier. I literally shutdown & form an internal barrier to communicating. #AutismAcceptanceMonth #communication #windowoftolerance #CompassionFocusedTherapy

Why do people think being into #Astrology is a red flag 🚩 in relationships? Just something I've noticed in others. Let people be into what makes sense to them? Very odd

[Key @BrightAutistic]

Why is it I compromise on my boundaries during my own mental health crisis? Why is it up to me to comfort other people when it's me who needs support and understanding? How can I fully self-care or self-regulate? #ActuallyAutistic #burnout #autisticburnout

#ActuallyAutistic #AutismAcceptanceMonth I have mixed feelings about the community this year. On one hand uplifting the message that Self-diagnosis is #valid and important but on the other there's been 'jokes' and 'othering' of people self-dx to #autismtiktok videos. Do better.

[Key @BrightAutistic]

It's a joke that this news broke on #TransDayOfVisibility this Gov doesn't care about us https://t.co/0JK1af5XaY

If you could visit your characters from #gaming or #ttrpg to tell them you're their Creator or Voice in their head-how would they react to you? #characters #DnD #tabletop #originalcharacter

I'm excited for Cat Burglar @netflix. I noticed Rowdy looks like the Cat from Split the Room @jackboxgames and I enjoy playing those games alot.

Autistic Trans people. Do you ever feel like you're not fully embraced by either community? #ActuallyAutistic #TransTwitter #Neurodiversity

[Key @BrightAutistic]

I get so exhausted by people putting subtext on things I say. They almost EXPECT it to be there. I get confused about where they get the extra information from. I don't communicate like that. #ActuallyAutistic #Autistic #AutismAwareness #communication

@em_doapsi Your post on friends just outright not accepting your Autism is a hard relate. Thank you for sharing this. I'll try to remember to check more of it out this year.

[Key @BrightAutistic]

I've realised that I can't relate to people anymore. I don't understand why people want to interact with me. Often we don't just tell someone why me like them. I need that context of why someone likes interacting with me. I can't make that connection myself. #ActuallyAutistic

@em_doapsi I think we all need to cultivate spoons where we can tbh
