Honestly, sounds like a very nice kid. Not saying you do, but it could be recognition and support.
I havenβt listened to this album but love her voice and sonics. Thanks for the rec!

Sadly, access to meetup now has a subscription fee, which I discovered after a multi-year hiatus. If you have access, great. If not, let me know.
Iβm offline for a few hours but will check back.
Saying where you live. I canβt do it for a few hours, but by tomorrow. I live in the us west coast time zone for reference.
I lost disability connections when I left Facebook, for similar reasons. Having ethics is hard on connections enabled by profit tech.
Do you live in an urban area? Are there f2f autism folks? Do you want me to check meetup to see if there is a group near you? Happy to do it if youβre comfortable
I also struggle with loneliness and lost relationships. I recently started attending online zoom meetings with people in the autism community. So many of us shared similar stories.
Do you have access to a local group? Can you connect with an online group? Even a few hours a month has helped.
Thank you all for shares & donations! We're sitting at 448.12/$716.55. Only $268.43 left to cover monthly bills/utilities!
I am a disabled queer trans artist, medically complicated & unable to work right now. Any & all help appreciated!

I didnβt look at your profile when I answered before, but just now looked and saw your other posts about food. Itβs none of my business, but if you want a non-expert opinion from someone in arfid recovery, I would suggest reading this book to see if it resonates: bookshop.org/p/books/the-...
Iβm glad and hope you find the answers you seek. πͺ΄
Taste and texture sensitivity are common with autism. Many people with autism have the ARFID eating disorder, which is the extreme side of the sensitivity spectrum.
Goddessspeed!
If b/millionaires arenβt paying tax and you do a tax holiday, wtf is going to pay for schools and roads?
You are woefully out of touch with the problem. More INCOME INEQUALITY is not a viable solution for workers, much less those unable to work.
Weβre in this together. Youβre not.

Itβs a non-linear processβ¦learning to love yourself.
I donβt know if itβs possible to love myself by not talking. What I do know is that I started caring about myself through talking to people who validated my experience. Self-validation skills followed.

Two Black immunocompromised people with ME/CFS & LC need to pay one thousand rent to avoid eviction risk and further stalling remaining emergent needs: two thousand plus used call, three hundred cleaners, seventy five daily food support!
A post that reads: We need $35+ for a meal and $25 for masks urgently please help. i am trying to raise rent and do not have the ability to constantly post, i need more people to advocate for us to stay housed. its much more difficult to advocate to stop an eviction or survive being homeless, i have done it, when people were seemingly more caring about Black lives, maybe not so much disabled people. now we are being monitored & censored doing MA. it is killing us. we need and want to stay alive pls step in.
another post: $1000 due in 3 days please help me fund todays/tmrws meals & $25 for masks. my last repost says housing and healthcare are suicide prevention. mutual aid is harm reduction. we cant access healthcare. we cant even leave home. an unfurnished home we dont have able bodies to clean. We need it deep cleaned to pass inspection this MO & to pay rent on time. homeless 2019-2021, unemployment since 2021, low credit. chronic illness. no car anymore. I fear lease not being renewed being fatal.
I am trying.
To reach yall.
SEEKING MA for a AuDHD, CPTSD homebound household without a car, independence, food security... to pay $1000 rent. Home unkempt & unsafe to live in as disabled people w/ MECFS. Reliant on prepared meals! Cleaners before inspections would assure they don't fail!!

I recently got an email from a cousin I havenβt seen in 20+ years.
He giggled (in writing) and said something about hoping id found my North Star.
I suspect he used AI to write it.
Iβm angry about my suspicion and havenβt replied. Chatgbt up in my relationships without for sure being up in them.
