I was diagnosed this year, at 29. High functioning autism. I grew up in a country where there isn’t much awareness about autism and the spectrum. My issues were blamed on depression and just “being weird”. Also, I always performed really well in school, so my tantrums, lack of social interactions, sensory issues never…

Do these people know what a 21 week baby looks like? Do they know that premature babies are at high risk for developmental delays and issues. Do they know what it feels like to have a tube in their throat that pushes air in the lungs? Tubes in the nose that feed you? IVs that give you drugs? Do they know that some of…

I don’t know if there’s a difference, but if my husband told me to get my vagina tightened because I gave birth to a human, I would get super pissed.

I once went to a wedding where the father of the bride, super Catholic dude, congratulated her daughter on not having sex before getting married. The baby was born 6 months after the wedding, so yeah, congrats! Also, the brother of the groom made a speech about how healthy it is to hit your wife when she’s not…

I have autism and when I had to get a polygraph, both times the results were inconclusive because my baselines are not the same as neuro- typical people.

Planned Parenthood helped me when I had a miscarriage. Planned Parenthood helped me when I had hormonal problems. Planned Parenthood helped me. They were gentle, organized, reassuring and cheap. Thank you, Planned Parenthood.

I am autistic. I am what people call “high functioning”. But I also have an extremely low functioning autistic best friend. It hurts me so much when people think that a life with autism is not a life worth living. Is it hard? Yes! Is it hard for the parents? Yes! Is it caused by vaccines? NO!

Do you know what the risks of premature menopause are for women? Do you what the diseases associated to premature menopause are? This is not about reproduction! This is a clear concern for health!

You have cancer and you need chemo? if you are a female in reproductive age they will choose to give you meds that protect ovaries and eggs. Or they will inform you that you could decide to freeze your eggs for future children. If you’re a male those same drugs might not give you any issues. You’re a male and you have…

They are in the sense that all the documents the government and government agencies produce in the future will be dictated by that birth certificate. It matters in terms of demography, public health, vaccinations, sports, anti-discrimination laws and policies, probably a ton of other things I can’t even understand.

But undocumented immigrants were never able to actually go abroad. Unless they wanted to be deported or refused at re entry.

I am amazing at sandwiches and nobody ever gave me a car. Where is my Range Rover?

We had a hashtag that was randomly created by a friend. He used it once and then everyone else started using it. Ironically I’m a social media strategy consultant but I really only cared about food, alcohol and everybody having a good time!

Tell your friend that nobody gives a f**k.

I’m just starting to watch because my stupid in laws wanted to do family stuff and have bonding experiences. Don’t they understand I don’t need their real life when I can have leftovers and a fake magical town on my couch?

My recurrent dream is one where I go to bed and judge Judy is there and we have sex. Nobody wants to read or dream about that!

I come from a country where kids under 14 cannot be put on trial for anything because they lack the complete understanding of actions and consequences. Between 14 and 21, you get social work and rehabilitation for any crime. I do not understand how two 12 year olds who have mental health issues could be tried as…

I married the professor and he now cleans our daughter’s shit!

I had a colonoscopy scheduled for the day after and I had to take all these laxatives. It was also the last day my long distance boyfriend was in town.(he lived on the other side of the world) My thought process was: the laxatives will take at least 10 hours to work, he’s going to be on a plane by that time.
