Random Twitter Stuff

Twitter is a great place to find #ActuallyAutistic people writing interesting stuff.

Here are six people I follow: 

@Kieranrose7 The Autistic Advocate
@Autismage Cos
@Outfoxgloved Rhi
@MeDecoded MeDecoded
@SheffieldLuke Luke Beardon
@AnnMemmott Ann Memmott

Does anyone else here use Twitter?

If so, who do you follow?

    I don't use Twitter any more. For the last year or two I've been using Mastodon to get on the Fediverse, which is a smaller, distributed social network with a much more supportive community. There seem to be a lot of autistic people on there - search #actuallyautistic to find some.

    It's a refuge for social outgroups, so there's a high proportion of LGBT people on there, a lot of wild young misfits. But anything offensive or triggering - even selfies with eye contact - gets hidden behind a content warning, so you don't have to engage.
