Autism can’t be cured.
Stop trying to with harmful therapies, diets and “herbal remedies”.

If you could share one medical fact with the entire world that you believe would save lives, what would it be?

👂 Ask for, and listen to, accommodation requests. A lot of accommodations are low-cost and easy to implement.

Wear shoes inside invite people over = cleaning hyperfocus.

Doing all those little jobs I've been putting off for months because family are coming to stay.
Nothing like potential family judgement to motivate your lazy butt.

⬇️THIS is great news!
Working remotely can be a great option for people with disabilities to be gainfully employed, but the Employment Standards Act treats remote workers as 2nd class employees.
Kudos @MonteMcNaughton and the @ONTatwork team!

Ontario is tightening rules around mass layoffs.
Proposed changes would give employees who work solely from home the same severance as those who work in-office.

Pretty typical of Tucker to throw around terms he doesn't understand... gross.

Love this era we are in where Tucker Carlson can use the term "Autistic" and people can freely speculate whether Ron DeSantis is "on the spectrum." This is my hell.

Budget is coming to the House of Commons March 28th. I expect this government to finally tax corporate profiteering and finally fund the Canada Disability Benefit. #noExcuses

#DidYouKnow 📖 You can be Dyslexic in one language, and not in another. 🤯
The subject of this @BBC piece is Dyslexic, but not in English and not in Japanese.

It's been more than 110 years since the first #InternationalWomensDay and the first studies on Autism... but the diagnostic gender bias remains.
Medical professionals must #EmbraceEquity and educate themselves to give females early and accurate diagnoses.

The first studies on Autism featured almost exclusively boys as subjects, and diagnostic tools continue to be biased.
Misdiagnosis disproportionally affects women, girls and genderqueer people.

RT if you got one or more diagnoses before you found out you were #ActuallyAutistic or #Neurospicy.

Autistic women and girls were always 'a thing'... but the world is finally starting to listen to us.

Women and autism is definitely now a thing . This is due to the many autistic women, girls, mums and siblings who fight daily for #autism acceptance and for all neurodiverse individuals. Watch this space .... this is just the beginning.
Have a great #IWD2023 💜

Plenty of disabled people hold post secondary degrees, masters, PhDs; it doesn’t mean we don’t struggle.
No Canadian should have to live in poverty, and too many disabled Canadians do.

"So what? I have two degrees. This doesn't make me more deserving than someone who holds no degrees. Everyone deserves an income that provides enough money to live on with dignity."

On a long haul flight & the 2 in front of me are “special ed teachers” - they’re talking “severely autistic,” ADHDers who “just don’t pay attention,” & “they don’t look it, you’d never know until you talk to them!” 😳

One is a teacher in Toronto, the other now lives in the US.
Someone please take away their teaching credentials 😩
Or, at the very least, teach them the correct language to talk about us.
