If you& #39;re tempted to engage with #ColourTheSpectrum or donate to Next for Autism, please STOP. They want to "cure" autism. I am a person. A human being. Please don& #39;t fund orgs that want to eradicate me. Use your money to support autistic people instead. http://ko-fi.com/shanodin ">https://ko-fi.com/shanodin&...
Individual support does the most good but if you prefer you could donate to something like @Autism (National Autistic Society), @autselfadvocacy, @awnnetwork_ (autistic women/nb network).
but for individual support you can give to me, or browse #ActuallyAutistic for others

The life expectancy for autistic people is 36. Read that again. THIRTY SIX. I am thirty and I am not ready to say goodbye. https://edition.cnn.com/2017/03/21/health/autism-injury-deaths-study/index.html">https://edition.cnn.com/2017/03/2...
