I've been gone because of uni, sorry guys.
Good news is, I got permission from my supervisor to conduct interviews for my Master's study in English as well, so sharing this here and on my other socials. I would really like to hear you guys' stories!

Mir ist gerade eine Erkenntnis gekommen:
Als autistischer Mensch in einer allistischen Welt ist etwas vergleichbar mit einer fahrradfahrenden Person unter Autofahrerinnen.
Wir haben ein viel höheres Risiko gefährdet zu werden und passen daher massiv auf, sind die ganze Zeit auf der Hut.
Und wenn irgenwelche anderen Radfahrerinnen scheiße und riskant fahren, dann wird es uns allen angelastet.
Hey there.
I know the world is on fire.
But you’re still here. Doing life stuff.
And you’re doing great.
And frankly, you’re looking great doing it. 🙃
I imagine most of you know who I am. I am a prolific writer of serialized OG #Yuri, weird tales, and #FanFiction. All available on AO3 and PIXIV. (When I say prolific, I am still dwarfed by many here.) I write mainly queer fiction, some fetish fiction, poly and families of choice and some with ASD and ace characters. All of which provide me with an umbrella to shelter under.
My work can be found at:

My pretty #neurodivergent friend group sometimes does lecture days: we all pick a topic to tell the others about for a while. I'm only now fully appreciating that we're doing organised infodumping.
Hi everyone, figured it was time to write a new introduction. I’m John, and I live on the east coast of Canada. I’m a 50-something physicist who invented a laser technology to detect diseases using exhaled breath in addition to some holographic technologies. I love research but the best part of my career has been mentoring promising young scientists, engineers, and founders. I have a wide variety of interests that include music, art, science, health, photography, books, reading, video games, biking, hiking, gardening, and much more. I am a lifelong feminist and ally. When I came to Mastodon from Twitter in the fall of 2022, I had no idea that I was actually autistic. If you made it this far, please wave or say hello! #introduction #actuallyautistic #physics #science#Canada #startups #founder #mentoring #books
There is always a price.
I suppose that this is as close to being a truism as anything. Every act comes with a price tag, for, I'm going to guess, everybody. Even if it's just the effort required to do the task. What does my head in, is how much more autistics (and others, I'm aware) seem to have to pay. It's why we talk so much about "spoons", or energy levels, or indeed the myriad other ways we have to describe how draining existence is and how important it is to monitor this. Because we know how quickly we can drain ourselves and hard it can be, at times, to replenish ourselves.
What doesn't help is that so often even the easiest task requires a level of planning and micromanagement that would horrify most people in your life, if they could ever understand our need to do it. But how do you explain that you have to plan everything ahead in order to be able to even be able to do it? That even the simplest task has to be battle planned to the last detail in order to be completed. The timing, the preparation, the steps to completion. The process to go through, to even start it. Not to mention the planning and thought and effort that has to go into anything more complex.
And then afterwards the price comes due, for all that work and the stress and anxiety that often surrounds it and we're left again with the thought of, was it worth it? And the knowledge that it never ends and never gets easier.
This slightly venty post was brought to you by me having a paying the piper day, for the work I had done last week and all the weeks of work that led up to it.
