Call for Autistic Self-Advocates in the Denver/Boulder Area

andromedalogic:

Hello! My name is Meda, I am an autistic self-advocate located in Boulder, CO, and I am looking to start a chapter of ASAN in my area. ASAN is the Autistic Self Advocacy Network, a disability rights organization, and you can read more about them here.

There are many ASAN chapters across the country but none in Colorado. I just got back from a leadership program run by ASAN, and they urged me to start a chapter here.

PEOPLE I AM LOOKING FOR: All you have to do is be autistic, or an autistic cousin. It’s fine if you have no formal ‘advocacy’ experience. I myself have literally a week of training.

NT allies are welcome. You cannot hold leadership positions in ASAN, but there are many jobs you can do for us, especially if you have another disability and/or are active in cross-disability rights.

This post is a preliminary action to see if I can find people near me. If you are autistic and you exist in Colorado, please reblog this and say so, or message me! If you do not fit these criteria, please signal boost.

I hope that we can form an IRL autistic community here and work to change things.

somuchawkwerd:

miss-freeman:

I AM SO JEALOUS I WANT TINY LITTLE BUG LANTERNS

 

angelicfallacy:

It’s so weird to read people calling Fireflies, “Lightning Bugs”.

 

arcanelegacy:

Ah, regional differences in language. Lightning Bugs, fireflies… (Google also tells me that they are sometimes called “Moon Bugs”, “Fire Devils”, or, my new personal favorite, “Golden Sparklers”)

I used to have a lantern-shaped bug cage as a child. Many summer evenings I’d go out and see how many I could catch for my lantern-cage, before letting them all go at the end of the hunt. They’re so easy to catch, you know. They fly slowly, and they don’t try to flee from you.

Damn, I miss fireflies.

So, for everyone else who finds the rich text editor to be an exercise in What You See Is Never What You Get, here’s how to make one of those fancy username links using the HTML editor:

the idea of two aromantic platonic partners having a “convenience marriage” is like my favorite thing right now I’m both getting really excited and cracking up over the possibilities I mean just imagine:

  • “we got married because of tax benefits”
  • “we got married because it gave us an excuse to have sleepovers every night”
  • “we got married because it seemed convenient to ‘pool our assets’ (aka our library is now twice as big, as is our collection of Disney movies)”
  • “we got married because it gave us an excuse to ask for toasters from people as wedding gifts”

#we got married because weddings are really exciting and we can plan it how we want it and it doesn’t need to include kissing bc that can be weird#but it gives us an excuse to have a dessert table#because dESSERT TABLE#I just want dessert table festivities#festivities around a dessert table#ahh#desssseeeeerrrrrt#CHEESECAKES THOOOOOOOO#YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 

this is the most important addition anyone has made to this post bless you and may the Force be with you my friend

 (x)

 We got married because broadway duets while doing chores, we got married because HALF AS MANY CHORES, we got married because surprise cookies on bad days, we got married because surprise cookies on GOOD days, we got married so we’d never have to ask the other if we could come over today again, we got married so our parents would stop asking (x)
