@actuallyautistic Does anyone have any good book recommendations about autism in adults? I've got a coworker who wants to understand how they can work with me better, but I don't know any books to refer them to myself.

Getting loads of notifications from this - amazing how big of a community there is here! I'm working at the moment so can't reply to everyone just now, but will be trying to reply to everyone as soon I'm able to!

So yesterday, I got my first wheelchair as a result of complications from long covid (primarily chronic fatigue and breathlessness from walking). It's made a huge difference for me so far even after just one day - previously I wouldn't have been able to walk more than a few minutes without having to stop and rest for twice as long whilst I catch my breath, but yesterday I was out with a friend for FIVE HOURS, and not once did I lose my breath or feel any extra fatigue! I'm so glad I finally stopped trying to just struggle through it and decided to get the chair, as it's making such a positive impact.

To other wheelchair users out there in the Fediverse: I'd be grateful for any advice you're able to offer me as a new wheelchair user. Anything that you think would be helpful to know would be very gratefully received!

I figured it's probably about time that I write an #Introduction...

Hi, I'm Oliver! I'm non-binary and asexual, and use they/them pronouns; and I'm Autistic (preferring identity-first language) and have ADHD.

I'm interested in all things technology, especially in making technology work for everybody (both in terms of accessiblity and equality).

I run the new Page.LGBT Mastodon instance, which is intended to be an open and welcoming space for all members of the LGBTQ+ community (except for TERFs, of course).

I'd love to connect with more Autistic & neurodivergent people on here, as well as other LGBTQ+ people!
