I don't think it should be overstated how worrying the alignment is of mainstream reactionary institutions (Fordham/Heritage, GOP, UK Gov't) AND the movement fringe (M4L, InfoWars/anti-"globalist"/anti-gov't/conspiracism) with nascent conservative pedagogies coded as "science".😳
#NeuroqueerLearningSpaces "People aren't things. People are processes ... nested within all sorts of other processes. My pattern is running within another pattern, constantly changing me..,You're a work in progress at all times" A community project with @stimpunks

1/12 A setting can/ cannot 'Meet need'. Such a cold phrase, conjuring up privileged people, not attempting to 'know, love, care for' a person, but instead discarding & excluding them. Worse, this a one-sided decision, where lived experience voices are all too often excluded.

3/4 (& which @stimpunks & @autisticrealms have called 'the golden thread' in their work) It's a roadmap for decolonialising (& retrieving soul in education) & offers that opportunity to religious & spiritual communities & one which reinstates spirit & lifeforce 👇

1/7 Time for my periodic reminder about one of the most important educational research findings of the 20th century: the Eight-Year Study. Back in the 1930s, 30 high schools around the U.S. turned traditional practice on its head, especially for college-bound students...
I am creating free access community resources with @stimpunks to help parents/carers advocate for their young people facing barriers to education. Inspired by @alfiekohn Why Sheets Please consider adding your signature to endorse these resources Link: stimpunks.org/why/
Got a Q recently about whether Learning About Neurodiversity at School #LEANSproject resources are also free for independent/fee paying schools. YES! They're free for ALL schools and other users (terms of use apply). Get the details + download LEANS here: salvesen-research.ed.ac.uk/leans
I never would have believed you if 6.5 years ago you’d told me whilst sectioned on a CAMHS ward that not only would I be here living life, happy & thriving, but that my book sharing my journey would be a Sunday Times Bestseller. But here I am. Thank you so much. 💖 #GirlUnmasked

Planned ignoring (behaviorism) teaches individuals who need co-regulation, love, care the most, noone is there to help. It teaches that distress, emotional & physical, is where being quiet/ masking is valued more. A foundation for #mentalhealth distress 👉 stimpunks.org/why/behavioris…

I don't think self-proclaimed "Instruction geek" @MrDanielBuck will see this, but I do seriously wonder if he's concerned about the hateful, misogynistic, and anti-Semitic rhetoric replying to his account. Gotta wonder what that's all about.
Something actually alarming is happening in our old friend's replies. I think he's got a tiger by the tail and can't see how a game he's been playing for clout is taken as deadly serious by his followers. These are just the first 3:
I don't think it should be overstated how worrying the alignment is of mainstream reactionary institutions (Fordham/Heritage, GOP, UK Gov't) AND the movement fringe (M4L, InfoWars/anti-"globalist"/anti-gov't/conspiracism) with nascent conservative pedagogies coded as "science".😳
We're launching the Neurodivergent Peer Support Toolkit (NEST) this summer! ☀️ This is a suite of free resources co-designed with neurodivergent young people & adults to help mainstream secondary schools establish a peer support group for neurodivergent students🌈
Tony Attwood often wishes autistic ppl would engage less in our "special" interests, but evidence of course supports their benefits. It's telling he recommends that parents/carers, care workers, teachers & mental health professionals but not autistic ppl otherwise attend his talk
Join us on 2 July at 9am UK for ‘#Autism; The origins of the special interest & misuse of the interest’ with Prof. Tony Attwood. bit.ly/49dWCZ8 Learn strategies to make constructive use of the interest or to reduce the dominance of special interests in daily life.
1/12 A setting can/ cannot 'Meet need'. Such a cold phrase, conjuring up privileged people, not attempting to 'know, love, care for' a person, but instead discarding & excluding them. Worse, this a one-sided decision, where lived experience voices are all too often excluded.

1/7 Time for my periodic reminder about one of the most important educational research findings of the 20th century: the Eight-Year Study. Back in the 1930s, 30 high schools around the U.S. turned traditional practice on its head, especially for college-bound students...
And to counteract the bad vibe, here's a link to @stimpunks stimpunks.org
I like steampunk and wordplay, and am #autistic - how could I not follow @stimpunks?! 😁
Oral chew toys & the like are pretty magic. I managed to fix one I’d broken last night, I was missing it more than I thought :) It’s one of the things I tend to avoid using in public as it makes me feel very vulnerable…. Maybe something that will get easier in the future

"Even more horrifying was the open acknowledgement that the young person needs to suffer to see improvement, with a suggestion that the avoidance behaviours are not seen at home as avoiding school is ‘understandably making them feel safe’ with nothing to ‘trigger’ them"…
'Blank face observations' reminiscent of Tronick's 'still face experiment' -the lack of response causing babies to become angry, confused, care-seekin and near catatonic before giving up. There are effects even from one go that can be picked up in stress response months later.
Yesterday I had an assessment with a DBT unit called Hope House run by @elysiumcare (Yes I’m naming and shaming them). I’d like to highlight 2 practices they openly brag about within their treatment for women with ‘EUPD’. 1) behavioural incentive pathway 2) blank face 1:1…
this was absolutely my experience ❤️🩹 [ credit: girl (remastered) by Jessica Jocelyn ]
They’re ABAing traumatized adults. These are both practices right out of ABA “therapy” (aka Autistic Conversion Therapy, invented by same guy who did Gay Conversion Therapy) and ABA is about conditioning kids to hide their struggles and perform normative behaviors. Appalling.

ABA, PBS, CBT are all problematic for neurodivergent people… ….the mindsets, the methods, the narrative. #BehaviourismHurts #ABAharms #PBSFails #TodayInABA
