Finally! I have always wanted to play #Dungeonsanddragons. At 37 years old, a DM took me and a couple other people who have never played #DnD, and showed us the basics. I had so much fun and have a million questions and can’t wait to play again. Thank you to all DM who have the heart and patience to reach out and teach your peers. #audhd
Tweet shared to the FB group Feral Neurodivergent Raging Meme Posting and now here with you. I’ve been down and this was the first thing that made me laugh today. I hope it makes you laugh too. #actuallyautistic#autism#autistic
@BZBrainz my wife and I were just sitting here having a discussion about why I misunderstood what she was meaning and seeing this men was perfect timing.
@actuallyautistic If you are an #autistic adult with a #servicedog trained to assist autistic adults… would you mind sharing some of the ways your service dog was trained to support you? Thank you!

I’m in the middle of a big move to a small rental & I almost missed Late-Identified AuDHD’s first birthday. ALMOST!
About thirty minutes to midnight I looked at my bookshelf, saw my 1st copy, remembered I forgot to do a cover reveal for the upcoming second edition, and decided to celebrate with a post and a Reese’s egg.

Late to announce, but Late-Identified AuDHD one years old today AND is getting a title update and a new cover this year. Cover was designed for the second edition by 100Covers.

Really hard conversation today about what was given up in youth for the sake of #masking before we were old enough to understand the cost. Touched on everything from special interests to expressions of gender identity. ❤️🩹 #actuallyautistic#autism#autistic
“The Autism Books by Autistic Authors Project is an (ongoing) attempt to catalogue all books — non-fiction and fiction — written about and related to autism by Autistic authors.”
There are over 1,000 books catalogued! Including mine and other authors I see in my #actuallyautistic feed here on Mastodon.
@BZBrainz@actuallyautistic@bookstodon I see at least two of my books on there (coincidentally, only the PNR ones). May suggest the rest when I have time.
@benetnasch@BZBrainz@actuallyautistic@bookstodon That is super exciting! I found it while looking for more books to read about autism by autistic authors. Then I saw how this was expanded, found my own workbook under non-fiction, and thought maybe I would submit my spicy PNR books (different pen name) for their other sections. When you can, I hope to see more of your work up there! #AuDHD
I’ve never had pain during the Beighton score for #ehlersdanlossyndrome but after? Ugh. I’m not the most bendy of the zebras at 6/9 and yet each clinician seems to need or want to try to validate a well documented finding. Started another go round of physical therapy today, so I do understand the need to document the 200+ ROM of my shoulders. Still 6/9 and no, I’m not bending my thumb back again because this body has been keeping receipts for the last 3+ decades—thanks. @chronicillness

I really relate to NDWelness’s content—their videos center their ND experience often through skits. In TikTok they can be found under NDWellness.

If you read large print or dyslexic font paperback books do you prefer this to be indicated on the cover (say on a banner at the top) to help you identify the accommodation?
I compiled a quick poll based on different perspectives I've read.

@rayckeith@bookstodon Thank you, Ray! Absolutely. I think I’ll edit my original post as I meant to use those words and instead directly transcribed my notes.
