I’m sometimes asked where I found hope while researching Losing Eden/Nature Seed & I always think of forest school, outdoor education, & the many people & teachers giving kids direct experience of the living world. Delighted to be talking at the Forest Schools conference tomorrow https://t.co/mbL8pd9FcE— Lucy Jones (@lucyjones) September 30, 2022

There should be a word for the specific feeling of alienation you experience as an autistic human being when you realise that most people don't understand who you are or how you work on a fundamental, basic level— Fochti (@fochti) September 30, 2022

Great experience going through @Gatwick_Airport yesterday with best assistance service ever. What made the difference? An agent who truly understood autism. Huge thanks to James, who helped enormously by telling us he was also autistic. Hope he is involved with autism training.— Mary Doherty (@AutisticDoctor) September 30, 2022

Footnote to this obit: It's not widely known that poet Allen Ginsberg (my old teacher), married Sue and Charles Mingus in an impromptu ceremony involving lots of Hindu chanting. Cute story here. https://t.co/BNBbBqmenr— Steve Silberman (@stevesilberman) September 30, 2022

Brilliant @risenc obit in @nytimes for Sue Mingus, who ensured that her husband, #bass titan Charles Mingus, would take his rightful place in the #jazz pantheon after his death. [via @mrspete] https://t.co/pSZhROfCHB— Steve Silberman (@stevesilberman) September 30, 2022

I'm a trauma therapist and I work with families of children who are not fine at school.

“May I have a quiet place to wait, in accordance to my rights under the ADA”“Sure. Go sit in the waiting riom with the screaming kids, unmasked people, and conversations you don’t need to listen to because who cares how your brain processes sound”— joqatana (@joqatana) September 28, 2022
