Exposure work doesn't need a formal diagnosis to begin.
I can start reducing avoidance now.
Small, consistent, low-pressure contact.
Not forcing neurotypical socialising.
Just lowering the barrier enough for proximity to happen naturally.
The label can come later.
The work starts now.

"We will prove to the world that we can move faster."Angus Hervey (Fix The News)
This prompt from @Ourladyofpoetics really stuck with me. To write your own eulogy. My writing by far not where I want it to be when someone actually will be writing my eulogy. But it is where I‘m at now. With my writing, and with myself.
So thanks for the prompt @ourladyofpoetics and thanks to everyone reading while keeping an open mind to the first but also the most personal piece I‘ve ever written and shared.
Who knows, maybe some of you can relate 😀
The picture is mine too btw. A very old one, from when I just started taking photography a bit more serious. So I guess it’s only fitting…

Progress of ~1.5 years of #Kingfisher photo's.
First on 30 November 2024, 2 months on the new hobby. Next one was in #Bloeidaal 1 year ago, a week later my best so far at #Waterwingebied
But yesterday beat all of those with a great sharp and detailed shot! Extra details in the alt-text

I just visited the website of the European Data Protection Supervisor @EDPS and noticed that they have a @Mastodon icon / link in their social media navigation bar in the upper right side of the screen.
This is simply AMAZING!!!
Thank you so much for being here on the #fediverse and for raising awareness about it with your website visitors ❤️
@EUCommission can you please be next? I argued for this in my latest article: blog.elenarossini.com/openness…

Progresses: Royal Courts on the Move in Tudor and Stuart England via Gresham College
[Shared] Most summers Tudor and Stuart monarchs took their court on an extended progress round the home counties staying at their own palaces and the houses of their courtiers. The cost and impact of hundreds of people, their horses and servants, was considerable; for the aristocratic hosts a royal visit was a momentous event.
This lecture draws on new research to reveal who they benefited, their impact on the economy, the landscape and on architectural ambition.
A lecture by Professor Simon Thurley CBE

From now on, everything that was on the internet, everything that was beyond its reach...
All of it has passed into the epoch of history, like photos, artists, and musicians.
People became so infected by the algorithm of the cool Wikipedia that they started calling it intelligence.
Maybe I, stuck in the era of the 2000s/2010s, remember it as a lively and humane time...

I’ve participated in Confluence (SFF con) in PGH for 4 years now.
First two yrs: I was the only EV at the hotel charger.
3rd Yr: Another EV charged alongside me!
4th Yr: Both EV charging spots are taken before I can get there! And I’m early!
Taking train to see an old pal this weekend.
1- To avoid a 3h30 drive 🤪
2- it's only fifteen bloody quid 😍
Pity the fucking SNCF Connect is still a thing.
I remember buying SNCF tickets on a Minitel back in the 90s sans smashing shite up in a furious anger.
