It costs $1k to hire a ghostwriter
As you know I like watching ads on Facebook. Some of them offer interesting masterclasses and I sometimes wonder why I didn’t come up with this or that myself. No, sorry, I never did so far! Today I watched a class delivered by somebody who sells hobby related ebooks on Amazon. That person doesn’t write…

Should I apologise to my neighbours?
1. Those kind of things always confused me: is it better to apologise for something you did unintentionally or maybe it’s better to pretend I forgot? As you may know the floor in my flat is really poor quality, I have installed soundproofing boards in my main bedroom but I recently mostly sleep in my…

Allegations vs facts
If you have a proof allegations becomes facts. Home Group tweeted me yesterday and I cannot believe that I wanted to genuinely forgive them! I thought that they see my perspective and want to make it work somehow but they Were hoping to bribe my diagnostician to get her to convince me to sign that…

Double hope
1. I don’t enjoy playing Redecor as much as I used to. I thought I’d stay addicted to this game forever, but here we are at the end of the month and I’m only on level 8th. And look what I did here. I could do better, I’m sure you’re aware of that. But at…

There are only two people who can tell you the future
I was wondering recently what the future of magazines are going to be like during times when everyone is a content creator. I’m all for people being creative and in fact I love watching unusual make ups or dresses on Instagram; I don’t even mind occasional cat video. I am trying to remember not to…

Three biscuits
I had a few days off blogging again. It is mostly because since I’m off Facebook I feel much better emotionally so there is no need for me to vent my feelings on the blog. Also even when the situation doesn’t involve venting it seems like making a blog post requires more effort now; maybe…

Autism and behaviour modification
As I already mentioned in some of my posts, recently I came accross the concept that we, autistics, shouldn’t be expected to modify our natural behaviours in any way and we should be as autistic as possible because that’s what’s good for us. This belief seems to be so strong among certain people that I’m…

Triple errors, anxiety and Facebook
My problems with anxiety started when I was working in Home Group, sometimes around summer 2016. It always felt the same: something happened at work but I didn’t understand the seriousness of the event till a good few hours later, sometimes even the next day, and when I realised what happened it felt like someone…

Instagram is for sharing images
That’s what I was always thinking, you know? Recently I found out it’s for building following. When I set up this blog in July 2021 I had no idea there are autistic advocates blogging on Instagram. I found out this year, probably in March, after reading an article in media. I started following one or…

A little bit of Facebook drama
So it looks like one of the Facebook groups that was created to house refugees in the UK got closed down today. The last post I saw was from a lady who said she’s looking for accommodation under Homes for Ukraine scheme and someone pointed out that her Facebook profile states she’s Russian and lives…
