September is going to be an atrocious month for me. I'm going to try to raise $403 to get through it.
I still need to get my fucking laptop data, and return the borrowed one, $43 for my credit card bill AND my stovetop broke.
Idk how to do it.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1057 , Saturday 19/09/2026
Well Saturday has been a very relaxed day.
Got a bit of a lie in & polished off my chores after breakfast.
Nothing exciting or even vaguely interesting occurred which these days is to be treasured!
Final Thoughts.
The world is getting madder by the day & any any pocket of peace is now something to be treasured!
Thank you to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

there’s no relationship between neurotype and dementia, right, the divergents get it at the same rate as the straight and narrows, right?

#AmReading Letters to My Weird Sisters and it's hitting me like a ton of bricks. Never have I seen my own experience as an #ActuallyAutistic woman so well described and defined. It's not just what happened to us, it's why it happened.

Three #autistic adults living in one house. We each need three weeks notice, in writing, if you want to turn the big light on. 💡
You know those moments, in a really good story, when you hit an inflection point and everything changes? I almost wish that I could live within those moments. I think of B5, BSG, and Attack on Titan. If you know any of those stories, you know the moments I'm thinking about.
I think it's an autistic thing. Some part of my mind attaches to one of these moments and then I find myself listening on some piece of music from the show on infinite repeat when I'm deliberately trying to lock in and hyperfocus on something.
I "learned" this habit decades before I was diagnosed. The diagnosis created so many "aha" moments afterward—for instance, recognizing this behavior as decidedly autistic.
Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1035 , Friday 28/08/2026
Friday started at crack of sparrow’s fart & I was down the gym before the rest of the avian world was fully awake!
Despite the fact that it rained cats, dogs & small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri last night there was little sign of it this morning in the Vally, although the leisure centre where my gym is based was flooded yesterday. Kudos to the staff there that there was little sign of it this morning!
A much better gym session today although my calf muscles are still rather stiff.
Did a few small jobs today, the bigger tasks seem to slip thru my grasp so easily these days!
Pizza for tea with a side order of Babylon 5.
Final Thoughts.
After the rain the sun came out which made the day so much better - I swear I’m solar powered!

RE: https://mastodon.social/@filmfreak75/117089988076652812
@autistics #ActuallyAutistic had a follow-up call on this consult and the focus this time was on “How do I ask the questions I need to without risking retaliation?”…
…in the past couple of years this has come up so often it’s now a special interest...
…what bothers me most is that no matter how many times i advise people on this issue, it’s always the same negative result in the end
I don’t want to single the person out, and I’m not, believe me, every normal person and most of the weirdos say what I’m about to argue with. I’m borrowing their text, though, it’s perfect, just what nearly everyone thinks.
.
“I think violence is a part of human nature and could never go away. Even if you found a way to stop all physical violence, the human aggression that causes it would still exist.”
.
I have a hard time accepting this, but I don’t think the majority sees anything wrong with that statement. Honestly, I think it’s built in, evolved into the majority.
.
But from over here in Divergent World, what I see is an excuse never to change anything, never to stop whatever is causing the aggression. “It would still exist,” so it is beyond causality, beyond science or thought? Purely a spiritual matter?
.
I’m still a toddler among the adults of Allistic science, having to ask, “Why?,” every ten seconds because, “because of Human Nature,” isn’t a real First Cause, you’re just sloughing your child off - OK, Dad, I’ll keep
it going: why, “Human Nature?” And anyway, when someone isn’t aggressive for thirty seconds, isn’t that, “Human Nature,” too?
.
You have the same answer for opposite questions?
.
But back to the point, the majority is so certain that aggression is natural and proper, causeless and inevitable that they will not experiment, will not learn anything further about it.

My dear AuDHD / ADHD / autistic fellows, do you have any experience with "mindfulness"? You know, the stuff where whole books exist about being in the moment, breathing, etc.? I don't yet know much about it and before I deep-dive into it, I want to know from you!
Is it useful? Or is it just another thing that seems to be advice from neurotypicals for neurotypicals?
Something I wish all the special ed teachers and therapists and other caregivers for autistic and ADHD people understood is this:
When we get supports and accommodations, that doesn't put us on equal terms with the neuromajority. It doesn't make our problems go away or fix us or even make us able to compete fairly with our peers. It merely lets us cope and survive in a world that is ill suited for us. Thriving is a whole other matter.
I've known people who should know better who think that if they give an ND student some band-aid accommodations they won't have problems in class anymore, and they'll be able to teach the ND students just like all their NT peers. All while the classroom is tuned to engage NT attention while leaving ND students out in the cold. Managers who think giving ND employees a quiet room to retreat to when they get overwhelmed is sufficient, while scheduling back-to-back meetings without agendas or note-takers and forcing us to do traumatizing team bonding exercises that rely on NT intuitions. Etc etc etc.
NT people don't understand, and don't seem to care to understand. It seems they mostly want us to follow their norms and ways of doing things, and the only help they'll give us is to encourage us to conform to their world.
It breaks my heart every day how many of us never get a real crack at the good life, and for no reason except the neuromajority can't be bothered to make space for anyone different.

I just realised a stim I have. I very gently clack my front teeth together in time with car indicators when they're left on for more than 5 or so seconds.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1036 , Saturday 29/08/2026
Saturday started at around 07:30 & was a relaxed & peaceful day that ended with a Chinese takeaway & Denzel Washington in ‘Inside Man’.
Final Thoughts.
Not a bad day at all. Following Mrs S’s ethos of ‘you can only do what you can do’ which I normally don’t subscribe to but sometimes one simply does not have the energy to push beyond ones limits.
Beige.party is down as I write this so that’s my excuse for posting it late!

This Playlist is the outcome of an intense hyperfocus on music during the latest full moon summer nights. My feet still hurt from all the dancing.
The title Look Inside does not only refer to one of my favorite tracks on it, but also to the intense experiences I have as an AuDHD person when I am listening and dancing to electronic music, to drum and bass. It’s not only my special interest and brings me joy, it also helps me structuring my thoughts, process emotions and regulate my nervous system.
Especially the combination of the warmer, more playful and organic sounds of Jungle D&D and the darker, precisely structured Neurofunk/Techstep tracks suits the complex needs of my neurodivergence.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1037 , Sunday 30/08/2026
Up at 07:30, woken by the kids next door screaming & shouting.
After breakfast we went across to my late MiLs place to replace the bulbs I ordered during last week.
I took the tool boxes that have the tools for the charity back across, I’m storing them in the garage there while I get hold of the charity to come & collect them.
We stopped off at one of our favourite eateries for a roast chicken Sunday lunch - delicious!
Had a relaxed afternoon, episodes of ‘Foyle’s War’ & ‘Cadfael’ helping us along.
Beans on toast for tea, as neither of us were particularly hungry after the treat at lunchtime.
Final Thoughts.
Not a bad day.
Public Holiday tomorrow so I think I might skip the gym & have a lie in.

Diary of an AuDHD Squirrel. Day 1060 , Tuesday 22/09/2026
Tuesday started just after 7am when I gave up trying to ignore the screaming kids next door.
It’s been a busy little day, I cleaned the bathroom & mopped the floor in there, cleaned the extractor fan too - it gets a bi-annual seeing to to keep it running smoothly.
Also cleaned the multi-sensor for the weather station, sadly the annual autumnal influx of spiders seems to have completely done for the temperature sensor so I have got a couple of Switchbot™ external temp / hygrometer meters instead. Not as good but far cheaper & they hook up to the phone so that should be helpful.
I tried out one of the new mini work lights that I got in Costco™ when I was sorting the extractor fan out - they are fabulous - really effective!
Final Thoughts.
Not a bad day, the only downside was that I went a little wild with the sweet stuff that I got from Costco™ - I knew I would - I should have resisted buying them! Hey ho, will have to work extra hard in the gym!

it’s #Evolution you idiots. You must stop making people’s environments shit on purpose, you are Jacob’s fucking ladder, taking us all straight to Hell on Earth. You can’t keep threatening people. Punishment is just torture, because it’s evolution, you fools, and things just keep getting worse. Your social control may not, “work,” but isn’t happening outside of this real, causal, evolutionary world, and it works perfectly fine as multigenerational, evolutionary torture that destroys minds.

Good afternoon. I'm trying to raise money for bills this month.
I'm currently $8 from my nearest bill and I have $300 left to raise.

Wait what, there's sensory spinning chairs? I've been sitting in a pretzel shape all this time. I didn't know this was one of those things. The hell?
