Katta's new fringe, AuDHD edition.
After decades of not having a fringe, I decide that I want one. I resit the ADHD impulse to do it myself and make an appointment at my hairdresser, bringing pictures of curtains bangs.
After less than an hour later sensory issues drive me crazy, the hairdresser doesn't answer the phone. I remember where I actually saw the fringe I wanted, look at old pictures of Jane Birkin and cut it myself. Now I have the fringe I wanted an no sensory issues, because the hair doesn't touch my eyelids. Happy End.
“Repressed evolution,” that’s the term I’m after, when you’re traumatized but you bury it and deny your pain and all things around it - like your adaptation to it 🧐💜

the #ActuallyAutistic experience: when the supervillian is giving you the "We're not so different, you and I," speech, and you mom's in the room saying, "That's right, Honey" 😠

old people use old language, get over it, translate it already.

“Spectrum,” is pathology, as though the neurodivergent all belong in some pen together - as if all of reality belongs to the NT, but we only exist on a little slice of it.

I already talked about “developmental.” Don’t bitch about other people’s terminology if you still say “developmental.”

Sorry. You know how it is, speak the unspeakable shit or go crazy. 😳💜💜💜
