    I apologise for the lack of intelligent blog comments lately (or ever), but I just died at the song match.

About Me

My name is Ali. I have a cat, Prosper, and a girlfriend, Kitty. I currently live on the southeast coast of the US, but plan to immigrate to Australia. I like to write about my daily life, autism, neuroscience, young adult lit, and intersectionality. Unless otherwise noted, post titles are lyrics by Kate Miller-Heidke. Sometimes, it's just pictures of my cat.

About autism, neurodiversity, and intersectionality

Autism is a category of neurodevelopmental disorders, commonly referred to as the "autism spectrum." People with autism often have difficulties in performing like neurotypical people in social interactions and communications, and often have stereotypied movements, interests, preferences, and ways of speaking. These are not inherently disabling, and sometimes are actually beneficial for us, but as society is not structured to our preferences, they can become disabling for many people on the spectrum. Neurodiversity is a submovement of disability rights seeking to treat all people with non-normative neurologies as equally worth of respect, participation in society, and acceptance. Intersectionality is when two or more -isms overlap, such as ableism and feminism, or racism and feminism. NOTHING ABOUT US WITHOUT US.
