Attended a great webinar today on #masking, shared by the Square Pegs #MeetUp group. It’s such a complex subject because what it means from different parts of our journey can change. When we aren’t connected to our #identity it’s an #instinctual and potentially #harmful #survival instinct. As we gain identity and power it can be #willful, and sometimes from a place of #privilege… even weaponized. But it’s always a good topic to discuss and be mindful. #ActuallyAutistic @actuallyautistic

Had a brief visit to the 'other site' today to see how many medical and social equity folks I followed had moved over to Mastodon. Sorry to read that in spite of knowing that they're going down in flames, many of them find it 'too challenging' to relocate.
