Last day of leave before I start my new job. I've been doing a lot of slow stitching, and took my doggo camping for the first time ❤️.

I just had to share this fabulous treasure I picked up at the beach yesterday ❤️ #driftwood #treasure
A snip from the linked paper. Figure 1 from page 15, showing the huge range of difficulties that some autistic people may have when using different transport systems.
I'm not always a fan of the NAS and its behaviourist belief-systems (understatement), but sometimes it does useful research e.g. on transport.
nas.chorus-mk.thirdlight.com/file/24/DYmk... This is about the challenges of getting from A to B, whilst autistic.
"Just use the bus/train" isn't so easy.
Happy international nurses day to all the fabulous nurses and future nurses out there ❤️. @daniellemansley.bsky.social @chrishutchrnld.bsky.social @chris-dlamini.bsky.social @joe-dubghlas.bsky.social
👉 You’ll leave with deepened insight, practical tools, a renewed commitment to challenge systems that retraumatise—and help build ones that heal.
What to expect;
🎤 Lived-experience voices- names TBC soon!
📚 Research-informed practice
🤝 Cross-sector dialogue
⚡️ Embodied, compassionate wisdom
www.nature.com/articles/d41... Research is supposed to hold high standards, ensuring information in them is original, accurate, ethical, and from the actual authors.
Seems a lot of Journals have systems so poor that they allow AI to write stuff, then someone edits it out after publication (!).

Access denied: MPs call for overhaul of laws, strategy and attitudes to get transport working for disabled people
Just beautiful ❤️
The Last of Us's Bella Ramsey describes their recent autism diagnosis as “freeing… It enables me to walk through the world with more grace towards myself about not being able to do the easy everyday tasks that everyone else seems to be able to do.”

For anyone needing pubmed, here is the european mirrorpage

It seems PubMed has disappeared. This is the digital equivalent of burning a library.
Fabulous new research re autism and learning (intellectual) disability.
It's about assent/consent, and how to get it right for everyone.
www.liebertpub.com/doi/epub/10....
Lots of thought, good checklists and ideas.
This is so important, isn't it.

Interesting piece from Emmie Parish, student editor of Nursing Times and soon to be RNLD www.nursingtimes.net/students/wha...
Our gentle reminder that there's ~ 2 million autistic ppl in the UK. Research shows we are less likely to commit crime than other ppl, on average.
Having an autism diagnosis is irrelevant to whether they are a criminal. It's like saying, "They have size 8 feet - let's fear all ppl with size 8 feet"

Satire: "In a statement released today, neurotypicals conveyed their relief that “this horrible year is nearly over,” asserting the belief that an arbitrary change in year will […] generally fix all the ills of the world." At @thedailytism.bsky.social:

Saying “autistic people have superpowers” means well, but it creates false expectations and stereotypes and makes it seem that autistic people are less normal than anyone else. Let autistic people be human, please. #neurodiversity
