The Framed Women of Ardemore House is a taut "fish out of water" murder mystery. We talked with author @bschillace.brandyschillace.com about how more novels like hers feature autistic protagonists as complex humans—not only as Special Autism Stories. At TPGA:

History of the Infinity Symbol

The most commonly recognized symbol for neurodiversity is an infinity symbol-typically a rainbow-colored one, but sometimes in a number of other colors as well. The symbol has a rather interesting history behind it that seems to be relatively little-known.

The earliest use of the infinity symbol in the context of autism can be traced back to 2004, with the web forum Aspies for Freedom.

It's used to represent all forms of neurodivergence, and the infinite diversity of human brains. Their forums are no longer active, but they have an instant messaging channel known as ChatAutism that people still use, including their founders. The infinity symbol was designed by Amy Nelson. Someone on Tik Tok found ChatAutism and confirmed this with Amy a while back. (side note: the autistic rights movement did not start with Aspies for Freedom. It started with Autism Network International in the early 1990s.) The logo for AFF used the infinity symbol, along with various other graphics Amy made for the site. Allegedly, the rainbow infinity symbol was inspired by a rainbow mobius strip Camille Clark of oddizms made as an alternative symbol to the puzzle piece for autism awareness, pictured below.

The symbol wasn't really used outside of Aspies for Freedom for about seven years. It's Tumblr where it really began to take off as the neurodiversity symbol. The mostly commonly used variant of the symbol was a redesign, posted in 2011. A little later, the unpuzzled site Bev Harp ran had a blog post that got shared on Thinking Person's Guide to Autism's Facebook page that also mentioned the rainbow infinity symbol as a proposed alternative to the puzzle piece. From there, it started to become much more widely used in the autistic self-advocacy community-though interestingly, is not used as the main logo of any of the flagship neurodiversity organizations, namely ASAN, AWN, and the previously mentioned TPGA. Some organizations nowadays use it, and it's becoming more widely adapted as a popular autism symbol, but it was relatively obscure for a while after its creation. There are many symbols used within the context of autism and neurodiversity. The infinity symbol happens to be one of the most well known. I may detail the origins of other symbols in the future. For now, happy Autism Acceptance Month!

TPGA shared a post on Twitter with the quote that autistic people need rules the way wheelchair users need ADA compliant ramps...which feels like an unfair comparison. like yes clear rules are incredibly important for autistic people and they are a part of accessibility but struggling with office politics is not the same as literally not being able to physically enter a space.

#Per60 - #49

I am amazed how TDR has literally shaken the whole of TPGA (too) to make this list. And trust me, it’s hard work! It’s blood and sweat - hard work!!!

*huugggsss* and I really am giving those out from my heart!

“Monster Hangover” - no such thing as a “Monster Hangover” or any mention. It’s more like a temporary name like Paul McCartney named “yesterday” as “Scrambled Eggs”. Yes, I observed that too! TDR observed it in a deeper detail.

#Per60 has a great edge, you know? His songs are sometimes in another language, something released under the Roxette label and sometimes under Gyllene Tider. And under Per’s work whatsoever. One song, multiple categories.

“Monster Hangover” is representing GTs “72” - and it’s got it’s fair share of description too! Yayy!

What’s next? Ghost in the house? Or is it the Sasame Street Monster? Elmo? Cookie Monster? Hmmm, I mean, Gabriel was once little too, not long ago!

Love and Peace

執行長陳志忠致詞

ThreeBond香港有限公司中華圈統括社長兼重道雄因為疫情影響，六年來首次缺席，無法前來台灣參加這項封關頒獎典禮，但是人在海外的他特別錄製了一段致詞在現場播出，並同時與現場來賓進行直播對話與祝福。

他表示，ThreeBond公司贊助這項挑戰巡迴賽已六年，回想六年的賽事，每年都比以往精采刺激，非常充實，「很開心當初冠名贊助這項巡迴賽，也很高興看到這項巡迴賽的台灣年輕選手贏得台巡賽的勝利，甚至拿下台巡賽獎金王亮眼的成績表現，結果比我預期得還好。」

他期望這項巡迴賽未來能培育出更多優秀的選手，可以藉由此平台站上世界舞台，另外就是越來越多的台灣企業一起加入贊助這項巡迴賽，這些都是他感到最欣慰的事。

明年一月因職務調動，他將前往美國辛辛那堤任職，很感謝大家，並希望接任他的主管，能將未來的ThreeBond挑戰巡迴賽辦得更精采。

ThreeBond香港公司台灣分公司總經理泰地宏和也提及，今年是此巡迴賽重要的一年，因為疫情影響，全世界包括日本的高球巡迴賽不是取消延期，就是觀眾無法進場看球，但是台灣政府因應得宜，可說是全世界少有能如期開打並全程完成，且觀眾能進入球場觀賽的高爾夫巡迴賽，希望以後有更多更好的成果。

總獎金台幣100萬元的2020 ThreeBond TPGA Challenge 封關站菁英挑戰賽，昨天（11月26日）在北投國華高爾夫俱樂部圓滿結束，林冠伯奪冠；王偉軒則獲得年度獎金王頭銜。

台灣福興工業公司董事長林瑞章今年特別提供30萬元獎金給ThreeBond挑戰巡迴賽獎金王選手，今天由林瑞章董事長頒發給王偉軒。王偉軒今年也同時贏得台巡賽獎金王。

HAPPY BITTHDAY TPGA

[lifewithchronicpain-original]

Content note: This interview discusses self-injury and suicidal behavior.

Oftentimes the most rewarding findings at INSAR, the annual meeting for the International Society for Autism Research, emerge during the pre-conference sessions. We went to the 2019 pre-conference on autism and mental health and were impressed by Dr. Rachel Moseley's presentation on self-injury in autistic people without intellectual disability—and are grateful that Dr. Moseley was able to make time to talk with TPGA editors Carol Greenburg and Shannon Rosa about her research.

Shannon Rosa: Dr. Moseley, can you first tell us a little bit about yourself, and your background and affiliations?

Dr. Moseley: I’m a researcher at Bournemouth University. I did all my studying and my PhD at Cambridge. In those days I was looking more at brain differences and differences in the autistic brain, and did quite a bit of research on brain connectivity and so forth. I’ve also done a bit of research on sex differences, and various things. [laugh] So I find myself now at Bournemouth University, and I’m more interested now in mental health, also physical health, suicide, and, as you say, self-injury.

Rosa: Why did you make a choice to study people without intellectual disability?

Dr. Moseley: I think, insofar as it relates to self-injury, autistic people without intellectual disability are underserved. They’re a very misunderstood group. If you were to do a literature search on self-injury, you’ll find a lot of studies and opinions on self-injury in people with intellectual disability, but there’s very little information out there about whether autistic people without intellectual disability also engage in self-injury, and whether it would be for the same reason for autistic people with intellectual disability, and whether it would look the same as in people in non-autistic groups.

There is one very good paper by Brenna Maddox, and it was the only paper that looked at self-injury in an autistic group without intellectual disability, and it felt like, there were a few things in the paper that I really wanted to know more about, and so I thought this really needed to be further looked into.

#Per60 - #44

“En händig man” on #44!!! That’s unfair! But well, please don’t put “kissing is the key” or “I didn’t mean to turn you on” further up - because that would make me.... Doubt.... Stuff!

Anyway *hugs* to the wonderful TDR team! Collecting Per songs to a 60 song list isn’t an easy task.

So, “En händig man” is a song which has the potential to be liked in the first listen. I mean, it emits a cuteness which doesn’t require you to know Swedish. The music and Per’s singing tell a lot itself.

TDR mentioned that Per isn’t really a handyman, and that he has admitted before too. It’s a “handy man”. But guess what, when Per released the demos of the “En händig man” album in TPGA, he made sure that that album cover had tools, and plenty of them - the demo album cover was more a handyman that Per himself (haha).

Hanna is there. Hanna is what Joanna is to the “son of a plumber” project.

Oh, and I just realised that both the names have an “Anna” in them. Per? Was it all planned?

Cute song, really really cute song! Came too early on #Per60.

Love and Peace

Autism research tends to focus more on causation and cures than on helping existing autistic community members. From both practical and basic rights perspectives, this needs to change. Too many core autistic needs are still under-researched, and, as a result, proper supports and understanding are too often lacking. We are hoping to help autism research better serve the interests of autistic people, and more fully address the research matters autistic people want addressed. With this in mind, #AutIMFAR is meant to connect autistic communities with autism research communities directly, during IMFAR, the International Meeting for Autism Research. Such conversations don't happen often enough at IMFAR due to a variety of barriers: cost, sensory bomb conference environment, having to face people who don’t see why they shouldn’t aim to cure or normalize autistic people, travel stress, etc.

If you are an autistic person who is interested in autism research and/or an autism researcher, we hope you will participate in #AutIMFAR.

#AutIMFAR Details

Time: Thursday, May 11, 5:30 - 6:30pm PST/8:30 - 9:30pm EST. Participating: Follow the Twitter hashtag twitter.com/hashtag/AutIMFAR. Alternatively, Twitter chat platforms like TweetChat and Twubs can simplify following these hashtag-based conversations. Questions will be asked as "Q1" etc; please answer using "A1" etc. Partners: The Autistic Self Advocacy Network (ASAN), NOS Magazine, autchat, Autism Women's Network (AWN), and Thinking Person's Guide to Autism (TPGA).
