I am an Autistic Advocate and a musician. That means I write, arrange, play the piano, and to stand up for Neurodivergent rights

I am feeling either cold, hungry, scared or confused. I wish I knew which one so that I can do something about it. #ActuallyAutistic #alexithymia

@artfulretro Where is centre stage?

[Bruce Petherick (He/Him) @bpetherick]

@jasonnolan so I will live to 100 then as I was in tertiary studies for almost 20 years consecutively

@StrangeB00k @jasonnolan Isn't weird how one technology can almost totally obscure another, only for it to reappear years later.

I backed a Kickstarter for a book that I loved as a teenager. Then it became uncool (blame the DX7) and now it is cool again! @jasonnolan #Geek

Insight from this book today: "The first step to self-advocacy is insight" #ActuallyAutistic

@mykola I honestly think this is unknowable

Nothing like checking your besties IG @drkaradymond and discovering she's in Paris with her partner. I am sooo happy for her and just a little jealous. #mixed

“When you look at funding models across the world, it’s so super concentrated on the zero-to-five age group,” said @bpetherick, an advocate at @AutismCanada

“Up to 10 [years old] it gets less and then teenagers it gets less…  Then [with] adults, it… almost totally disappears”

[Bruce Petherick (He/Him) @bpetherick]

This is so scary to think that governmental organizations think we are monolithic. #ActuallyAutistic #advocacy

New national Fitness to Drive standards are 'discriminatory' and 'humiliating' for autistic drivers, psychologists say https://t.co/MKayqjzqOT

@artfulretro What are you filming? And can I watch the online talk?

[Bruce Petherick (He/Him) @bpetherick]

I know I am not an expert in traditional tacos, but I have just had the best tacos in my life! @fontecoffee #Seattle

@SupernovaMomma I absolutely despise the "blue pumpkin" bs.

I'm neurodivergent and my daughter is Autistic.

Plus, it confuses the teal pumpkin for food allergy and that one actually makes sense. Makes sense at a home offering allergy safe stuff too
