I think as well as sharing my Autistic experiences I'm going to also try and share information about my combination of chronic diseases and what it does to an individual's body over time... It seems many people I am close to have never even heard much about Celiac's or especially Graves' disease...
English novelist, biographer, memoirist, historian and short story writer E. F. Benson died #OTD in 1940. Benson was a precocious and prolific writer. His first book was Sketches from Marlborough, published while he was a student. He started his novel-writing career with the fashionably controversial Dodo. The Mapp and Lucia series, written relatively late in his career, consists of six novels and two short stories. via @wikipedia
Huge fan of the Mapp & Lucia series. I even made the pilgrimage to Rye, an almost perfect match for Tilling in the novels, where Benson lived while writing them. Specific places were repurposed for the narrative, so you can read the books and accurately follow in the footsteps of the characters.
I think of Mapp & Lucia as two dinosaurs locked in an epic struggle for dominance, while constrained by the social rules of the 1930s. @bookstodon
☝️ anybody in the @actuallyautistic community have any leads for Indigenous Autistic bloggers for @limbicnoodle ? Especially focused on identity and advocacy.
My short story “Hope Is the Thing With Feathers” is available to read for free along with all the other fabulous finalists in the Asimov’s Readers’ Award! Of particular interest to #corvid lovers and #neurodivergent folk!
Avec un ami, nous pensons à construire une base de connaissance collaborative pour adultes autistes avec des guides pratiques pour le quotidien : gérer les difficultés sensorielles, l'hygienne de vie, le travail adapté, les finances, les relations, les accomodations, etc.
Nous cherchons un front end moderne et sympa de type Wiki pour poster les articles organisés par catégories et qui permet la collaboration (sans forcément être autant avancé que Wikipedia)
Par exemple j'aime beaucoup https://ux.wikihero.org/experience-utilisateur-ux/accessibilite donc je recherche quelque chose dans ce genre
On veut que ce soit international donc la gestion d'articles en plusieurs langues serait top aussi (espagnol, basque, francais, anglais).
Mon ami est dev donc il pourra bidouiller le nécessaire. Des recommendations ? @clovis
My situation is getting worse day after day, the donations have disappeared and I have had to go back, the funds have run out again, I have nothing to eat and I have nowhere to sleep tonight please I beg you for a little help as I am still out here💔
On a related note, now I've half a mind to construct a simple clock API that spits out human-written poetry every minute. So I guess hit me up if you are down for a 1440 verse poem collab @smutstodon and/or @bookstodon 😆
