This Is Me. There Are So Many Things I Can’t Eat Because I Hate The Taste. I’ve Always Been A Picky

This was me at 27.

Had a realization about myself recently, and I think I might need to go get myself evaluated whoops

I’m down for both of these challenges. Except on November 21st. That’s my husband’s birthday. I’ll experience that day.

This month I’ve decided to participate in an event called “October,” where for every day in October I’m going to experience a day in October.

Here’s the prompt list I’m using in case anyone wants to join me in this challenge:

Next month I’m thinking of trying out the “No November November” challenge, where I’ll refrain from experiencing November for the whole month of November.

Friendly reminder that I happily accept the position of Autistic Mum, Aunt, and/or Sister for anyone that needs acceptance, love or just a kind person in their life.

This week is a little crazy study-wise:

Forensic science - ✅ 1 chapter to read, 2-3 page paper on 1 hr video (✅ watched the video), ✅ midterm

Business communications - create 3 graphs from data sets found last week, read 1 chapter

Gender & society - ✅ read 1 chapter, two part final, posttest

Add to the fact that I’ve been driving my wife to her appts, plus getting an epidural in my neck this week. It’s a bit crazy. But I’m chugging along!

I’m so close to being done with my associates degree. I even registered for graduation two days ago!

We celebrated Christmas Adam yesterday by decorating stockings and playing board games!

christmas eve what about christmas adam

First anime I ever watched an episode: Sailor Moon

First anime I attempted to get into the series but couldn’t fully: My Hero Academia

First anime I devoured from start to finish and need more of: Saga of Tanya the Evil

I feel like Food Wars also needs a mention here, but it’s a very casual watch for me.

That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science

Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?

I’m neurodiverse and I have some of the best friends who are also neurodiverse. Best thing about not being in school and having to find friends there? Neurodiverse adults are everywhere and many are realizing that they are special instead of weird because of it.

I’m not going to lie. The neurotypical world is hard to fit in because it wasn’t made for us. But having friends and who are like you make it easier to deal with the NT world. Plus, we tend to have the cooler hobbies and jobs and past times and collections.

We need to talk more about Autistic, ADHD and Neurodiverse Joy

As a kid I felt hopeless because the only narrative you ever see about Autism is the loneliness, the otherness, the bullying and the struggle. I never once saw anything about the joys of having autism or that autistic people can actually have nice things in life. It was all doom and gloom. The world tells autistic and neurodiverse children that their lives are going to suck because of the way their brain is, because of something they can't control and had no say in, and it's wrong

I'm Autistic and I fell in love. I'm Autistic and I have friends, good friends, who love me back. I'm Autistic and I do feel joy and togetherness and peace. THAT is the message we need young Neurodiverse kids to hear. No more shows about our hardships, more stories about our joy please

I thought this was actual advice to think about it for 27 minutes exactly. My ADHD ass was about to go do it and expect good results.

Me: Time for bed.

Brain: No. Let do [insert activity here] for several hours instead. :)

Me: Okay

ADHD Awareness Month
