Today we lost a great ally to #ActuallyAutistic people, and I'm reminded sometimes WE are the ones someone has to look up to. When there's only us left to bear that mantle, its on us to wear it with pride. #SteveSilberman

Putting together #lego set #6082 Fire Breathing Fortress, that was given to us by one of my wife's friends and co-worker, Whitney.

Got about 2/3 through the build before having to scrounge through loose pieces.

To honour him today, I want to share an excellent interview featuring the late Steve Silberman.

It’s long, but 💯 worth the read.

Misdiagnosed And Misunderstood

<p>People often ask if I believe autism is overdiagnosed, if we’re just slapping a label on geeky kids who in previous generations would have been considered merely eccentric. I reply that I believe autism is still <em>under</em>diagnosed in two groups: women and people of color. The cultural and class bias built into the diagnostic process was so pervasive in the 1980s that psychologist Victor Sanua claimed that autism is rare among families of color. The reality was that people of color often didn’t get decent healthcare.</p>

Thanks folks, I got an invite!

I'm contemplating migrating to a new server and fosstodon.org looks ideal. But, they now have an invite-only sign up.

Does anybody have an invite they would be willing to share?

Spent a fun evening recording and putting together a guide for people attending #DjangoConUS2024 in September.

We attended our first #DjangoConUS in 2023 which was also in Durham, NC and had a great time.

I wanted to help people who are attending #DjangoCon for the first time to make the most of their trip.

This ended up being both conference tips and a guide on where to find buffalo wings in Durham...
