I am a PhD student researching the micro politics of Autistics in the workforce. I am a New Materialist and draw on the philosophies of Deleuze & Guattari while conducting post-qualitative inquiry. On Mastodon: @sara_aml@mas.to

Look what Temu has on clearance today! Some people think it’s so trendy but looks like it’s not a popular feature after all

I was making fun of the idea of selling symptoms, but as it turns out, the site has some pretty cool sensory toys for sale.

Gaza is today's Auschwitz. The Irony of becoming what you once hated. Zionism is Nazism. Zionists are today's Nazis. The Zionist state of Israel is today's Nazi state. Israel is no different from the Nazi state. Once upon a time, the Nazis forced Jews from their homes, and now Israel is doing what the Nazis did and forcing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to leave their homes.

No one will ever be able to say that they did not know this was happening
Mawasi Khan Yonnis is the largest area for the displaced population in Gaza, sheltering more than a million Palestinians, all in tents. Israeli occupation forces targeted it with eight missiles; the intensity was so strong that it buried tents and people underground. It has been almost an hour, and paramedics are still unable to retrieve anyone. The death toll is estimated to be in the hundreds.

I’m saddened by the loss of @stevesilberman, author of Neurotribes & a crucial ally. His book transformed my understanding of Autism & led me to the work of Autistic authors & academics. His work inspired me to focus on Autistic experiences in my PhD thesis. RIP, Steve.

If masking and camouflaging are required to prevent otherwise visible Autistic traits from being seen, would the Autistic community be better understood as a “visible Neurominority group”? #AskingAutistics

My latest art piece the @AlienAnthology first poster. Being #disabled in #Canada and much of the world, is a horror show. @LloydLongfield @MikeSchreiner @BonitaZarrillo @KPateontheHill @cafreeland @JustinTrudeau @CamGuthrie #pwd #pwdarmy #derb #disabilitytwitter #DisabilityPride

I’m on parental leave for a year supported by a small grant. My PhD program is paused & funding continues when I return. Committee said “congratulations” It’s so different in Canada.
Undergrad: my “mentor’ found out I was pregnant, told her other mentees they should learn from my “mistake” in front of me. First year of my PhD program, the then chair of the dept. found out I had a kid & told me to keep my legs closed if I wanted to graduate..

A Spinozist ethics rooted in patriarchy & the exclusion of women, isn’t really ethical at all.

Senior prof wants grad students to kiss his ass & buy him beer. He calls it “networking” 😆
15 Jun 2024
Grad Students: Networking is critical for success in academia. But the real question is WHO to network with. I’ve known grad students who will spend time at conferences drinking beers in the bars with grad students from unranked programs. Is that 1/

Stumbled upon this gem. Like a ‘schizo out for a walk…’ Schizo edits are avant garde art made by Autists. ❤️ when my 2 interests collide in Chaosmos. #Deleuze #GillesDeleuze #Guattari
Schizo edits are a legitimate form of outsider art. They have a feverish quality and a manic exuberance. Self-taught autists produce these masterpieces in total isolation from the art world. new video by miss white (@cinecitta2030) feat @ChrisWinig @World_Elsewhere @kikisknees

Flash back to primary school! As my kindergarten report card explained, “She only plays with others when encouraged to do so”

Thanks for all the support for my doc #BetterOffDead @BBCOne If you want to know why me & many other disabled people oppose assisted suicide, watch on iPlayer. And if you think what's happening in Canada would never happen here? Jersey are voting on an almost identical law...
