Hannah got sick with Covid in March of 2020 and never recovered. Helping to pioneer the patient-led “Long Covid” movement she’s now been diagnosed with ME/CFS and a TBI.
Writer with multiple neurodivergent dx, also trans/nonbinary, queer, and multiply disabled in other ways. Talking about the intersections of these realities and how they all connect and crash.
His pinned "You might be Autistic, if…" thread is what led to my self-diagnosis (not gonna debate that with anyone, ever), and eventual clinical Autism diagnosis.
"Neurotypicality Research Institute" (formerly "Save The Neurotypicals!") is a satirical account, whose Autistic author uses to flip ableist language about us and turn it on the Neurotypicals. It's witty to hilarious.
Dr Chloe is an Autistic researcher of neuro-divergence in the UK. Her feed is often hard science. I can't do it justice, check her out, see if it's your thing!
Another intersectional perspective, from Kayla Smith. She is where I first learned about how much Autism & ADHD increases our chances of experiencing violence from police. Our facial expressions are apparently what they're taught as suspicious?

You may have seen Marina Amaral's books. She kinda famous for 2 books she co-wrote with historian Dan Jones, where Amina painstakingly colorized black and white photos, and Dan wrote the back story of the photos. Lots of photos, but also some Autistic & ND activism.
I think I’m pretty great and have interesting thoughts and infodumps. More seriously, I am a late diagnosed AuDHDer who is trained as an ADHD coach. I Tweet a lot about my experiences and realizations. It’s not an option in the neurotypes, but I’m also dyspraxic. Sometimes I talk about being a dyspraxic aerialist and how I do movement things I like while being clinically uncoordinated.
I’m not sure that I am - I work on government code, engineering, and talk a lot about my ADHD and how i’ve succeeded in spite of it - and because of it.
