Maybe some of those who don't "see" autism or ADHD might consider looking in a mirror? Autistic psychiatrists miss autism diagnoses when they themselves are their own benchmark for "normal" according to my research. Positionality matters.

when my account started going viral, people were like "this guy is autistic" and i thought "i'm not autistic, i just have a hobby." then one day i googled "signs of autism in adults" and went "hmmm..."

Model Y Standard & Model 3 Standard are here

Robert Roberson is an innocent autistic man who has been wrongfully imprisoned for 20 years in Texas & is due to be executed on October 16 2025. I joined this Panel to raise awareness of this imminent tragedy to call for his life to be saved. Please share

My children are not on the autism spectrum because I took Tylenol while pregnant. They’re on the autism spectrum because I, a person who will wear only one type of shoe and can’t eat food that is “too potato-y,” had babies with a man who has an encyclopedic knowledge of European

The thing that ‘causes’ autism is procreation. Not paracetamol, not vaccines, not mercury, not parenting, but basically just reproduction. Autism is highly heritable, largely influenced by genetic factors. Autistic people have always existed and will always exist.

How lovely that this is online today as I’m at @autscape and planning my first #autistic community discussion on shame tomorrow

The rise of autism diagnoses is so often framed as a negative thing. ‘Well where were they all when I was growing up?’ is commonly thrown around by people who just don’t get it. Autistic people were always there. Just now we have the ability to recognise more autistic people…1/4
