A queen, in heels.

I gained 3 referrals just reading this. But they wonder why kids aren’t engaged?

Snapped some baby cheeks (and fingers and toes) and while it’s not formatted for Bluesky it’s too sweet not to share.

Going through a death with my undiagnosed neurodivergent family is a whole trip. My dad didn’t tell me she passed until he saw I posted it on FB. The obituary is FULL of side stories- like how she won $1k at a casino. No one gave me any arrangement details- I just googled it and found her obit. 🥴

Thankful to have a session full of cheekies to stare at after one hell of a downer yesterday. 😮‍💨

Americans are awful at processing death. I wonder if that too is because of all these compliance-based positivity washing systems baked into our behaviorist culture.

Not my mother, a woman who allowed a kindergartner to walk home to an empty house and hang out unsupervised for hours, over here questioning my parenting choices. 🙃

Over here just having an American neurodivergent experience of all my special interests under attack at once that’s making it impossible to dissociate for survival. And hey let’s add a hormonal shift into the mix for funsies.

I got lazy and googled fun things to do with kids near me and no lie, my kid comes up as a search result. This feels like a trick question.

Who are the grassroots up and comers that are going to be the ones to watch in future elections? I need something politically positive to focus on.

When the middle schooler says this country is cooked and I can’t respond.

Them: we need you to advocate for this funding. Me: of course! Them: we’re going to use the full program name Me: of course! What could go wrong? Them: it’s the Weatherization Assistance Program Me: … Them: henceforth known as WAP Me: 😶

Just learned the local Tesla iNfLuEnCeR was crying to his followers how sad it makes him to get yelled at with his kid in his twuck. Meanwhile guess who is often the lone wolf shouting at peaceful protestors and revving his engine to instigate through our public square?

My kid got us both one of those I want to know your story books and I underestimated how shit these are for high ACE cycle breakers. Probably should skip working on them for the parent days too. 👎

Nathan Fielder is going to have more people at his rehearsal in Season 3 than Trump has at his parade. His set designers are going to build a replica of Washington DC.

Apparently channeling Chappell Roan, the crowd along Walker Street in Houston has begun singing, “G O T T O G O this motherfucker has got to go.”

NEW: Democracy is alive in Philly! Amazing scenes in Philadelphia as thousands hit the streets for the anti-Trump protest. #NoKings #50501Movement

Our local No King’s Day rally is GIGANTIC for our small city! I hope the rest of the country is serving loud and proud. 🥹

Serj: how do you own disorder? Me (high ACE, underresourced autistic, w/ agoraphobia living w/ 3 other ND humans): *quietly gestures around my house*

My kid just called in because tomorrow is senior skip day. He graduated in August. 🤨

I appreciate the honesty of constantly hearing “I just can’t watch the news right now” but folks need to start putting in shifts or something. They want you tired and unaware. That’s the point.

So this self described best autism and disability conference pops up in my reels as an ad. No info. 3 clicks in the top post is about using PBIS. Hard pass.

The most adorable thing I’ve seen on the internet today. 🌈

This morning I get to go support a school district that recently made national news standing up for one of their families. ❤️

Split Fiction had me simultaneously raging and laughing myself to tears tonight with @mrlargebarge.bsky.social

Ended a convo with “If you’re not being actively harmed by this system, that’s a privilege we don’t share” and decided to post it here for posterity. Not everyone deserves your experience, education, or insight.

When we’re more mad that a kid farts during a lockdown drill than the fact we have to conduct lockdown drills.

My kingdom for a basic economics class on tariffs for everyone in the US rn. 😮‍💨

On one hand I wish people wanted to connect via social platforms more and on the other I’m seeing the comment sections that make me question the existence of humanity. *sigh*

Those “I want to know your story” books everyone’s selling? Not made high former high ACE kids. This is the most awkward thing ever.

I see some of you praising an “American pope” who is less American than a lot of the “illegals” you want booted from this country. ☕️

Wait if the new Pope is from Chicago when does he take a shot of Malört?

People look at me funny when I crave or taste things that I simply describe as Germany. I was 4 when we left so that’s all I got. ISO: chocolate dessert that tastes like Germany. It has to be a specific one. Wish me luck! 🇩🇪 😆

The White House posting AI of the president as a Sith Lord is quite the unexpected No It’s Not an Onion Headline update for May the 4th.

Not saying I’m an expert, but I used to have a job in tech support and have offered my time to someone that just asked if my husband would be available for questions. Silly me thinking I left all that sexism behind in the beer industry.

Tariff pricing is hitting vendors and suppliers. This is going to get ugly for so many small businesses, especially those of us near the Canadian border who are already seeing far less of our friends to the north. 😔

I just want everyone to be better at the things I’m passionate about, but everyone takes it as a sign keep asking me to work for free. I think this is how Catholic school haunts me despite leaving it behind in 7th grade.

Had a beautiful trip away to NC but had some of the worst bbq ever and I can’t shake it. I need to figure out where to go before I head back. I refuse to believe this is the standard.

Did you know you can purchase music options from the comfort of your home for venues that use a service like TouchTunes? So many choices. So many bigoted bars about to be absolutely fabulous.

Just a gal from dairy country driving south mentally plopping ice cream stands along the route.

reposting with alt text so everybody can experience what is truly one of my all time favorite posts

I don’t recall the package of this edible Easter grass listing a flavor but I’d say it’s green apple communion.

At least RFK can say he accomplished gathering all the divisive bits of the autism community to join forces against his brain rot. So there’s that.

Well I guess autism speaks has their new support video on lock, eh?

lareviewofbooks.org/article/the-... So, the co-founder of ABA, Ivar Lovaas, may have lied about his past, and may have been a N*zi collaborator of some kind? Well, that would explain a lot...

Sticker dweeb strikes again!

Local org that actively shuts down autistic voices getting yet another media praise for training LEO’s on autism. What could go wrong? Lather rinse repeat.

bsky.app/profile/rick... the family is being released and returned home! ❤️ 💪

Today I received a long awaited diagnosis for one of my kids I’ve been seeking for 6 gd years. Last time I did this felt an overwhelming wash of relief and joy. This time I’m angry at every asshat who doubted me and stood in the way. And not a damn bit of it was because of Tik Tok.
