@tiggertraining and I have joined together and started a new podcast called "Across the Neurodivide"! There's nothing else like this out there - and it's about discussing the beauty of all neurotypes and how we can be supportive and celebrate eachother

We (amazing group of Autistic people working day & night since this study was announced @BoycottSpect10k, & our wider community & allies) have won a battle, giving us time to prepare for further battles against these non-autistic researchers waging war on Autistics & our humanity

#Spectrum10k has been paused!
After days of the #ActuallyAutistic community sharing grave concerns, recruitment has been paused while they "co-design and conduct a meaningful consultation with autistic people and their families"

"I would like to ask for non-autistic people to start actually helping. I know we have allies, but we don’t just need allies. We need outspoken allies. We need a buffer to the trauma. We need a break."

The vulnerability of Autistic people is one of our main concerns. Not because we think you lack capacity, but because on the surface this can appear a good study! It is NOT. We urge you to research properly before signing up. #stopspectrum10k #BoycottSpectrum10K @FoxNikkiFox 👇👇

A group of Autistic advocates are campaigning to #boycottspectrum10k as they are concerned about its underlying aims with regard to their DNA being used for eugenics. We do NOT need a CURE! We need ACCEPTANCE! @Spectrum_10K #StopSpectrum10K @CarrieGrant1 @PaddyMcGuinness
