  • I hope you find what you’re looking for bud.

    The closest I’ve ever found to anything like that is just… hanging out in queer spaces. Online or in person. My experience is that they tend to be welcoming, and accepting of our difficulties and more willing to help explain things that don’t make sense. I think there’s also a reasonable amount of overlap between how to cope with being queer in generally bigoted areas and how to cope with being neurodivergent but surrounded by NT people who display varying levels of acceptance.

    I bring that up because like… a lot of what I used to think was difficulty understanding myself was mostly caused by internalized ideas that I was lazy or useless or w/e other nonsense I’ve been called by people with no understanding of or sympathy for situations I find abnormally difficult. I assumed the way I am was wrong and i couldnt understand why i was more comfortable being wrong. Material in queer spaces isn’t coded exactly for the negative ideas that are usually associated with ASD people, but the self affirmation messages are there





  • Wasn’t “protecting Russian language and culture” one of Putlers first justifications for the invasion? Like, I think it’s kinda fucked up to ban the language and culture, but then again my country has never been invaded by a neighboring war criminal who used “we’re just protecting our language and culture in your land” so my opinion isn’t nearly as valid as the opinion of people who are currently in that situation
