I'm looking to speak with folks with dementia about their experiences with it for @flashforwardpod. We've got plenty of experts on the science, policy, tech, etc, but really want to make sure we feature folks living with it. rose.eveleth@protonmail.com Thanks!— Rose Eveleth (@roseveleth) September 12, 2022

The push to return to normal is also depressing when you consider how counter-revolutionary it is to want a pre 2020 life back instead of viewing the pandemic’s disruption of stasis as a portal into a new world built around keeping all of us safe, fed, housed, cared for, free.— Han Olliver (@hanolliver) September 16, 2022

It seems pretty commonplace to believe that disabled and chronically ill people are faking but not that doctors, medical professionals gaslight us about our symptoms? That’s weird… #KnivesOutSpoonies— Imani Barbarin, MAGC | Crutches&Spice ♿️ (@Imani_Barbarin) September 17, 2022

My partner went to an event about workplace discrimination. The speaker said, "Ask tech companies why they're only hiring white men with Aspergers." The audience laughed.Autistics face discrimination in the workplace, yet the speaker used us as a joke & an example of privilege.— Lauren Melissa Ellzey (she/her) (@autienelle) September 17, 2022

Why is anyone wasting their breath arguing that a "mermaid shouldn't be black" when instead you could be talking about the time Hans Christian Andersen showed up as a guest at Charles Dickens's house and absolutely ruined his life for a month straight— Dana Schwartz (@DanaSchwartzzz) September 16, 2022

Nobody wants to be sick or disabled, but a huge part of being sick and disabled is accepting our bodies and the strength of the disabled community plays such a big role in that. We’re not determined to stay sick, we’re just accepting that we are.— Rachel Charlton-Dailey (@RachelCDailey) September 12, 2022
The disabled community is one of the most open and understanding communities there is. It’s the place we can share symptoms and get help because so many drs have failed us. The fact non disabled people see us helping each other and self diagnosing as “faking” speaks volumes— Rachel Charlton-Dailey (@RachelCDailey) September 12, 2022

The online disabled community is so strong because it’s for many people the first place where they are supported and believed in years. That’s not a cult intent on making each other worse, it’s a safe place for us all to be and grow. I’m sorry if that threatens you.— Rachel Charlton-Dailey (@RachelCDailey) September 12, 2022
Added some context to https://t.co/oXmnPotu2q -"If we are right, then #monotropism is one of the key ideas required for making sense of autism, along with the double empathy problem and neurodiversity.
