I was not born to be pitied. I was born to raise Hell. Autistic style.
Hey, I’m launching a poster series, “Ignite Neurodiversity.”
Cuz that’s what we MUST do.
Set our authentic #Neurodivergent selves… on fire.
In our living rooms, offices, board rooms, school rooms…

"Just Be Real #ActuallyAutistic"
Inspire your kids. Inspire your co-workers. Inspire a new generation of students.
Raw street art & advocacy. Don't fix us. Spark our strengths...
These posters balance quality & price. To spread our message.
"Think Free - #Neurodiversity"
See it in your family room. Staff room. Study hall...
"THINK FREE" encourages embracing our unique thought patterns. Our unique worth.
A call for acceptance & understanding. In everyday life... Live OUTSIDE the box.

"Einstein: Autistic Prophet of Dark Time"
Celebrate an autistic hero. Greet guests, uplift your cubicle wall, inspire study hall...
The style blends both familiar & otherworldly. Just like Einstein, who challenged our reality.
Undiagnosed, many neurodivergents claim Einstein as our own...
"Just Be Real - Color-Morphing Coffee Mug"
11 oz of fun...
I don't know about #AutisticAF YOU... but I need a little boost switching from sleep to activity. Just to be real...
Just like me, this color-morphing cup fades as the coffee gets lower...
Belongs on every desk corner. Great gift.
Other Artwork - at Cost
These last two aren't really about #neurodiversity. Just my way of giving something back as an autistic artist...
"Kamala Harris - Freedom"
I offer "Kamala Harris - Freedom Poster" at cost. I make no money.
Cuz no one should have to pay extra... to be free.
Communicate freedom in your home, office, or front lawn.
"Tim Walz - Joy"
I offer Tim Walz - Joy Poster at cost. I make no money.
Cuz no one should have to pay extra... to preach joy.
Communicate joy in your home, office, or front lawn.
Hey, if you've stuck with me so far...
I have a personal note I need to share...
I'm in a bind. Indiana just pruned disability rolls. Unfair! My benefits slashed by 40% - $355/mo, overnight.
But I NEED to keep sharing #Autistic info, and frankly, #AutisticJoy. It’s what I do.
And I NEED to keep providing it FREE. It’s what I am. So many of us neurodivergents simply don’t have cash.
But if you can help my work, here are three ways:
1. You could buy a poster from this thread. You get something fun for your home, office or school. I earn money to support my work.
2. a paid subStack subscriber. I offer all my articles for free, but some folks subscribe for $5/month to support my work. https://johnnyprofaneknapp.substack.com/
3. Drop me off a one-time tip of any size if I've moved you from time to time. https://ko-fi.com/autisticaf
I’ve got more "Ignite Neurodiversity" posters coming at ya. Consider following me to get their release announcements:
* "Trust Your Joy. #AutisticJoy"
* Do You. No Apologies. #Neurodiversity"
* Just Ask. #ActuallyAutistic."
If you can, help me spread the message... anyway you can.
And my lack of Corporate Sex Education? Confused the Hell out of #AutisticAF dot me. Well into my 50s.
I entered the workforce with this "boy genius" vision of myself in my head.

"Slouching Toward Joy: My Best 6 Phases To an Actually Autistic Relief"
I've completely rewritten this blog post as a new podcast... in light of... the last difficult year.
In my 70s, I face the reality of my autism. It's a raw journey. No miracles. No hacks. Just daily, gritty acceptance. And moments of radiant joy in the authentic self.
What time I have, I want to share with you.
So Season 4 of #AutisticAF Out Loud, Epi 1.
Maybe I missed working in the traces. But I think this might be my best. So far. Like to hear what you think.
Transcript should be up shortly. Available wherever you download podcasts.
