Authors talk about how smart their MCs or villains are, but have you ever written a slow-witted character?
A dangerous topic, too easy to step over the line over #Disability and #Neurodiverse terminology.
My characters have a range of qualities, interests and abilities.

There has been absolutely no research I can find that explores if autists are more likely to be vegan or vegetarian than the general population. I find this extraordinary.
If you are autistic, (either clinically or self diagnosed) are you vegan?

I'm included in this amazing anthology of #neurodiverse comic creators! The Kickstarter has been live for a few weeks but could use some support: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/partlyrobot/nerd-emergencies/posts

Has anyone mentioned yet that there's a pretty good chance that Dawkins is #neurodiverse, and that us neurodiverse people are more susceptible to AI?
@crowgirl@hachyderm.io Asking, because it's a really important part of the conversation that seems to be missing here.
It's like piling on someone for being homeless, taking drugs, whatever...
We need a 12 step program to get off AI that *works*, and part of that is education, not shaming.

Video from a good alumni event: Bringing #Birmingham to You: Beautiful #Brains - building #neurodiverse futures https://youtu.be/8Hc19BukDsc "Our panel of academics and lived-experience experts talk about how #neurodiversity can transform #workplace culture, boost resilience, and empowers #inclusive leadership. Explore with us how widening #access to education and the workforce helps address social #inequalities. We share tips and signpost ways to properly support neurodivergent colleagues. And hear how Birmingham researchers are informing national #policy at government level."

@owenblacker@dataare.cool showed me his "Manual of Me" page and I was so in "awe" of how much it aligned with my current goals I put the time to write one
