I have had a half baked thought bouncing around in my brain for a few months now about near-mode vs far-mode thinking as it relates to autistic vs allistic thinking. Since I might not ever get around to writing this properly, and it's keeping me up, here goes. #AutismAcceptance

I've stopped using the term "high functioning" to describe my autism. I'm very good at passing, and have attained a fair bit of success in the world of NT people. I grew up very close to a kind and socially gifted allistic sibling who taught me a lot. But the term is ableist. https://t.co/6mWjBai9n8
