NeuroDefiant Collective

Have you been in a book club?

How often did you meet? Was it enough? Too often?

What's the frequency sweet spot? ​​​​​

It's GIVING TUESDAY and I have two opportunities for you to directly support a couple of queer, neurodivergent, trans/gender expansive folks so we can keep showing up for our communities in the work we do!

It's very on brand for a bunch of PDFiles to gut all the professions that are mandated reporters and are predominantly filled by nonbinary, women, and BIPOC folx.

Hey Neurokin, when you're dysregulated, shutdown, in meltdown or burnout, it can be really challenging to identify what your body-mind is feeling in order to know what you need (heck, even in neutral states that can be tough!).

Try this check in - "what autonomy need can I meet right now?"

Same

ACAB first and always.

But while they're still here, CAN THEY PLEASE BE MORE HYPED ABOUT ARRESTING & LOCKING UP ACTUAL PDFiles than they are about arresting women who have miscarriages and charging them with murder?!?

I'M GONNA LOSE MY WHOLE DAMN MIND WITH RAGE *primal scream*

Hey so, fellow white folks, our disabilities and any other marginalized aspects of our identities do not in any way absolve us of racism. We may not use our disabilities etc an excuse to be racist or brush off being held accountable when someone calls us in for correction. Especially white autistics

When I lived in Waco, TX I met a doctor at a networking event who started up her own Direct Primary Care practice which is the first time I ever heard of such a thing.

How is it that christians will open their wallets to financially support colonizers--I mean--missionaries whole lives, not just their food needs but then folks who need food stamps to survive are called lazy and told to just go get a job??

Make it make sense?!

“Well I hadn’t heard of you before now and you’re just so young--”

I cut him off there. Clearly, in his mind, if he hadn’t heard of me, I didn’t exist...

Once upon a time I was part of a mega church...

I know. It’s difficult to admit. And yet it’s true.

Ok Christian nation, how are you stepping up to fill the gap and feed the hungry in the coming months?

2/2

If you are donating & engaging in mutual aid, please keep this in mind.

How do we help our folks connect with specialty foods?

Thinking of folks who won't be getting their necessary food stamps - especially thinking about those with food allergies, celiac, ARFID, halal, kosher, things that are much harder to find at food banks and pantries.

We can't get to #NoKings until we FREE PALESTINE, CONGO, SUDAN, all colonized people and give all their LAND BACK.

It's wild to me how silent zionists are being about the anti-semetism of the GOP & YR nazis. 🤔

If I Can, You Can Too! Unpacking the myth and the mistakes of this thinking

I used to have a very, "If I can do it surely it will be no big deal for others to do it," mentality not out of arrogance, but out of self-underestimation.

I'm speaking at the CODE: Ethics Lab for Coaches this weekend kicking off the summit with a session on Radical Curiosity: a formula for Neuroinclusive Accessible Leadership and Coaching Practices.

What does neuroinclusion have to do with a free Palestine, Sudan, Democratic Republic of Congo?

Disability justice.

Neuroinclusion is a liberatory work. Deconstructing neurodominant culture requires that we dismantle the imperial systems that created such a culture.

It's all connected.

How are all my queerling survivors of #conversiontherapy doing? I'm thinking of you and sending so much loving kindness out to you 💜💔💜

She will love you for life!!

Right?! All that dopamine 😍

Y'all.

OMG!

I just found this photo that Meadow's foster mom took of her when trying to get her adopted 😍

Happy Howl-o-ween!! 🐾
