I’m evolving Autastic in 2026 💪🏽.

Your OG Autistic Auntie bushwhacked the damn path alongside the handful of advocates dedicated enough to autistic liberation to endure being spit-roasted in the ableist social media dumpster fire that was the early 2020’s to come back breathing flames. Now it’s time to clear the next road ahead.

Autastic’s doors are unfurling as a platform for autistic advocates and individuals to come together in service of our Black, Indigenous, and all autistic people of color. No longer will you hear my voice alone—we are legion and we roll on #AutisticTime. Want in? DM.

We will abide no social norm, no ableist standard, no metric nor measurement, nor a single well-meaning advice-giver coming in hot with their with ‘shoulds’. We done lived an entire life by y’all’s demands. It’s our turn now.

Like it or don’t, we gonna do what we do. Get ready. Follow The Reframe from Autastic to ride with us.
