It’s April!
Whilst I’m sure you all mean well, please remember not to support or donate to Autism Speaks this month (or any month for that matter) as they are a terrible organisation who hurt the autistic community
Instead I recommend actually taking time to look at writing from autistic people and learn from them and, if you really want to help and donate, consider ASAN instead
Thank you xx

#April Fools #legitimate Rick Astley #(it genuinely is Never Gonna Give You Up) #(all the way through) #(I checked) #oh why not #I already had this stuck in my head for the occasion #(though I haven’t (yet) encountered any RickRolls this year) #(not even ones that made me suspicious beforehand)
Okay, folks. It’s Lying Liars Who Lie Day.
Beware of new features on websites (cough-TumblrPro-cough)* and things with links that can neither confirm nor deny they go to Youtube (or in some cases that confirm they go to Youtube). If possible, avoid contact with parts of the offline world containing known or potential pranksters. If your life circumstances forbid this, my sympathies.
Good luck, everyone. Stay safe. It’s dangerous out there today.
*I watched that whole video (having been told in advance it was a video, but not what was in it) bracing for a RickRoll. Never happened. Must admit, I was too scared to click the upgrade button. Let’s see…oh dear.
