While UK is proposing to narrow diagnoses (!), our new study led by @isaacahuvia.bsky.social: adults w/ self-identified autism had more unmet needs & higher distress, & similar understanding of autism, than officially diagnosed peers. Most wanted formal diagnosis journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

1/ On health inequalities for autistic people the @hlautismactcom.parliament.uk report credited the success of the Oliver McGowan Training to coproduction and delivery, but still many autistic people struggle to access healthcare.

Representatives of autistic-led organisations giving evidence to Holyrood’s health, social care and sport committee said a national plan is needed to fix significant gaps in neurodevelopmental pathways: healthandcare.scot/stories/4295...

This was a painful piece to write. I love horror, but it doesn’t always love me back. I wish I didn’t have to write this, but it keeps happening, often from people who should know better Tl;dr: we need more disabled writers/directors so we can tell our own stories 🙏 Please share

Not every autistic person has the ability or capacity to be a "contributing member of society," and that is OK. We are all interdependent, we all depend on each other—some more, some less. That's how society should function, ideally. #neurodiversity #disability #autism

“Quite often, big social theorists actually formed their ideas in social movements, or in radical or activist spaces – what sociologists call counter-public spheres.” @alimeghji.bsky.social talks to Iris Pissaride about W.E.B. Du Bois’ legacy in the Magazine’s September issue. buff.ly/BWdBY33

BREAKING 🚨 The updated EHRC Code of Practice has now been sent to the Government. The Code is just as bad as we feared. It would mean a mandatory trans bathroom ban, and trans people's exclusion from public life. The impact would be devastating. But politicians still have time to stop this.

I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!

Panic attacks aren’t “just anxiety”. They can bring a racing heart, breathlessness & dizziness so intense it feels like a heart attack. Believe people, stay calm, no judgement. Awareness breaks stigma – you never know who’s battling one right now.
