Heippa! I'm Päivi from Finland! 🇫🇮 I'm an autistic ADHDer, I love to talk about both #Autism and #ADHD. I also have #CardiacSarcoidosis, #UlcerativeColitis and likely #MCAS. I'm a #CardiacArrest survivor 2020 ❤️‍🩹 I work at a company that helps neurodivergents. Who are you? 🤗

I was looking for events in Finland. I think they just haven't been registered here.

When I (Ryan) think about all the money Autism Speaks rakes in while Autistic-led organizations like ours fight for scraps, I feel justice sensitivity roil through me body and mind. I feel the injustice out to my nerve endings and to the depth and breadth a soul can take.

Autism $peaks is the largest and most popular Autism organization (among allistics), who continues to be 100% in support of ABA. They have lobbyists who push ABA as the “gold standard Autism treatment.” It utilizes same practices as “conversion therapy,” which is currently banned in 28 countries.

ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) is the “gold standard” of “treatment” for Autism, and was created by the person as “Conversion therapy” (see Lovaas) with similar techniques and goals. It’s torture that continues to have widespread support and acceptance.

A Black child’s meltdown is seen as aggression 😕
A white child’s meltdown is seen as a cry for help 🙂‍↔️
This double standard costs lives, opportunities, and dignity.
Listen to Black autistic voices.
Believe our experiences ♾️

rejecting the concept of "a cure for autism" is suicide prevention
Reposted by Päivi Butcher AuDHD

sorry for the repost zoomies but suicide prevention isn't infographs & memes on Oct 10th or any other day of the year

it's not charity walks or fancy fundraising dinners

it's taking care of each other
believing each other

if the former brings the latter, great, but we're not really seeing that

YES: “If parents get their information about parenting autistic kids from the autistic community, they will find people who think their kids are awesome and deserve to be happy, and want their parents to feel the same way. The parents will learn about autism from people who had autistic childhoods.”
thinkingautism.com
"Because of the media's relentless negativity, fearmongering, & pseudoscience in covering autism, “ #profoundAutism " communities are often magnets for parents whose goal is to cure or treat autism, instead of understanding how to support an autistic child."

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.
wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.

Getting pretty sick of people asking what caused me. My parents had sex, I was born, no different to the vast majority of people on earth.
They chase a cure because being more accepting requires a level of decency that doesn't exist for so many people it seems. Especially non-autistic researchers.

Language hack - When talking about "autism", replace autism with "tall" and see if it makes sense:

"The tall community has opinions about new tall research that came out recently, about the increased risk of tall."

Now write it correctly, using tall, and then replace "tall" with "autistic".
