I so badly want to see this site to take off.
If you're #ActuallyAutistic, you know just how much of a problem these things can be. For me personally, having the information about lighting and how to get service in advance would be a huge help.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 821 , Monday 26/01/2026
Monday started earlier than normal at around 7am.
Had to go for a blood test at just after 8am, the cold & my naturally shy veins resulted in the phlebotomist having to make 3 attempts to squeeze a measly couple of mm of the old claret from this stone!
Then after a restorative cuppa & doing a couple of chores I had to cross the wild wastes of Yorkshire to play babysitter to the chap doing the valuation of the contents of my MiLs house.
He was due at 12 but was about 30 minutes late - which gave me a little longer to sort things out.
Was back home for a latish lunch & then lost myself in medieval Bohemia for a few hours!
I was treated to a Fried chicken takeaway for my tea by way of reward for my efforts today.
Final Thoughts.
I was very anxious having to meet a new person on my own, but my masks held & it all went well in the end.
Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

Registration for #OnlineAutscape2026 is nearly ready to open!
The Autscape Programme Team received an abundance of high quality proposals. We have included as many as possible in the programme, and we hope that those who did not fit in this time will not be discouraged but consider proposing again for future events.
As we wait for final confirmations to publish the whole programme and launch registration, we would like to introduce our guest from Australia, Dr Sharon Zivkovic.
Sharon is an autistic social entrepreneur and systems thinker. Her social enterprise Community Capacity Builders established a Centre for Autistic Social Entrepreneurship in 2023. This Centre piloted a Program for Autistic Innovators, Systemisers and Social Entrepreneurs in 2025, providing autistic individuals with the knowledge and skills to use their innate autistic ways of thinking for the creation of social innovations, to systemise social innovations, and establish social enterprises.
Sharon will tell us about this three-part programme on Saturday, 7th Feb, starting 11 am GMT.

Right?
.
I think "Autism," isn't a thing, it's not a thing when you have to define it as, "anything," is it?
.
I think Allism is a thing, and they define it constantly as rather narrow.
.
So they aren't really looking for a cause for, "Autism," because that's not really a thing - what they are doing is trying to protect Allism, looking out for things that threaten Allism, obstacles to Allism.
.
Their whole world is about creating it and protecting it.
.
I suppose that's just always for them - but if I were desperate for hope I might want to imagine that if they feel a threat to their type, that maybe there is one. I hope so. 💜

(although, we may at some point have to consider that wood smoke has been part of the human respiratory diet for a very long time, it's probably doing something - just not recently, or not only recently)
.
of course modern fires aren't just wood smoke, but still, environmental brain damage is NOT Autism. Separate conversations, all three things, wood smoke, plastic smoke, and brain damage, and Autism is part of none of them. 💜

You know, the "crazy," idea I put with the meme is starting to grow on me. There are crazier things in biology and evolution
