Everyone’s favourite friendly neighbourhood autistic community activist is back. How are you lovelies? I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday, even if you don’t celebrate anything.
We had a bit of a family Christmas thingie and one of the gifts I was given was a doll what looks like me. I still need to take a photo of her. One of my special interests is doll collecting and another is autism. So for a while, I’ve wanted to make an autistic doll. I took the doll what looks like me, put an infinity pin on her #autisticpride. Then I put a stim toy in her hand. So now she really looks like me. I’ve been trying to find a small pair of headphones that would fit her. At least for the photo. Not saying all autistic people use stim toys and wear headphones, but I certainly do and she looks like me, so…
There will be some upcoming changes in the blog soon. I want to start a vlog and attach it to this somehow. I want to make a more intimate way for the autistic community to know and connect with me, rather than just words on a page. This is fine, but it’s not the same as being able to see and hear me. So I’ll be filming on my phone soon, making some video content for this here vlog. It will be posted here, as well as on my new youtube channel. Links to follow when ready.
