i have a distressingly low amount of money in the bank and i don’t get paid until the end of this month, and i was wondering if anyone would be interested in commissions in about 2-ish weeks? headshots/waist-ups? my art is here!

i just wanted to see if this was a thing people were interested in!

Hello my friends, I need this survey filled out for a course. I particularly need Canadians and Americans who are over the age of 40 - the survey is not very long, it typically takes people at most about 10 minutes to fill it out, and it would help me a lot if you (a presumed Young Person from anglophone North America) could (a) fill it out yourself and (b) pass it on to others, especially those above the age of 40. 

Thank you in advance! Please share if possible. 

The paper this is for is due on Monday and technically I have enough responses but I almost have 100 and I would love to get there, if you could fill this out/pass it on, particularly if you know any Canadians over the age of 30 because that’s the group of which I have the fewest respondents.

Black and Hispanic Children Underrepresented in Autism Identification

Read the full article Black and Hispanic Children Underrepresented in Autism Identification at NeuroscienceNews.com.


The number of children diagnosed with autism has increased in recent years, but a new study co-authored by a University of Kansas professor shows that while the number of students with autism increased in every state from 2000 to 2007, black and Hispanic children were significantly underrepresented.

The research is in Journal of Special Education. (full access paywall)

Research: “Racial Disparity in Administrative Autism Identification Across the United States During 2000 and 2007″ by Jason C. Travers, Michael P. Krezmien, Candace Mulcahy, and Matthew Tincani in Journal of Special Education. doi:10.1177/0022466912454014

I’m Latin@ and I’m convinced the only reason I was able to get my autism diagnosis is because I have a white mother and am white passing.

sexistentialisms

This is a really important post.

This is really important!

We see so little representation about Latin@s in media, and especially, about neurodivergent Latin@s. But we’re here! We exist!

hi there, my name is opal dusk and i’m making this post on behalf of my partner friday.

currently, due in part to taking care of me while i stayed there, friday is over 2k in debt. they are psychotic and have just been turned down for financial aid from the govt, which is a huge blow to them and has made them have to turn to possibly getting a job, which atm they are unsure if they can even handle.

they had also planned to come live with me for a few months, and help give me what i need: fulltime companionship and observation, since i can be a danger to myself since i am psychotic and cannot work due to this and being disabled. 

with this debt, it makes it super hard for them to do so, and indeed to life in general for themself since every ounce of money they have goes towards paying off this debt.

they are considering working now, even though in their mental state it will be very hard for them, and i am asking, if anyone has any spare money, to please donate to help ease the burden money has become on my partner.

any little bit helps towards the goal of maybe getting them being able to stay here with me. we don’t expect the full sum, but if you can, please help us, and please help friday.

donations can be sent through paypal to bffsy@live.com, signal boosts are so, so appreciated!

please please please boost this and donate please i am begging you
