This is my shouty, political, #neurodivergent account. My (slightly more professional) artist profile is @cognissart

This is a new profile after Twitter migration because I'm a bit different here. I mainly lurk, boost and comment. Maybe I will craft an original toot now and then

Do you have any clothing routines? I own eight gray plain t-shirts with no tags which I love. I often will just wear them over and over again.

@octonion @autism101 @actuallyautistic Bold! That smell makes me and my son nauseous, and Comfort. I find I can't even watch the adverts - it revives the memory! Apple shampoo is OK. Absolutely NO perfumes. We have also had problems with a wash that my son was prescribed for his acne. I had to add lime scented shower get to it and even then it was difficult to use.

@actuallyautistic Somehow got into an argument earlier about fractions with my parents, especially the fraction 15/16. I said that 7.5/8 is the same thing as 15/16, because they can be converted to each other by multiplying or dividing the numerator and denominator by 2.

My mom basically said, no, that's not right because it's not a "proper fraction" which doesn't make sense to me. The math checks out, and numerators can have decimal integers. Is there something I'm missing?

Doctor suggested I have but I don't think I do because:
I am able to force myself to do things even if I'm not interested in it.
I do not like spontaneity.
When I have a deadline, I cannot leave it to the last minute or anxiety would cripple me.
But I do struggle to pay attention unless am hyperfocused. And I do have executive function challenges. And I have to have a project. And I crave dopamine hits.

Anyone else similar to that?

@niamhgarvey @pathfinder @Zumbador @miffyhelen @actuallyautistic @actuallyadhd ooph! I'd never seen the Additude test for females before. Just done it 62/72! That explains a lot

Hi! I'm hoping for help with an art project exploring autism and 'barriers' (sensory, social, structural) that lead to overwhelm, shutdown, meltdown, exclusion... (Either via masking or directly). I'm starting by compiling a list of things - my own include stuff like being interrupted whilst focussed on a thing, crisp bag rustling, body spray, unnecessary 'chit chat' group emails, arbitrary changes... Any more that any of you would like to share would be much appreciated. Each 'barrier' will be written out within the artwork @actuallyautistic @actuallyaudhd
