- The face of 'emotional wellbeing' and the reality of 'being' well. If the perception and expression of emotions is fluid, what does that mean for wellbeing support? a-labour-of-moles.blogspot.com/2025/04/well...

- After years of trauma for my Autistic teen at physical schools, mainstream & specialist, & for us as a family, we have all benefited from education from home. Recently, he put into words why this was important & shared the idea of his ‘fuel bubble’. a-labour-of-moles.blogspot.com/2025/03/my-f...
- a-labour-of-moles.blogspot.com/2025/03/defi... Every individual within a community matters to the 'being' of that community. A community that others and excludes one of its members, is not a community at all.
- My son is so proud of the first 3d print of his latest blender project. 💕 as am I. What a cool ear phone stand.

- Multi-modal communication for all, always available "Different motor plans & lang. modes come to me in a way that isn't predictable.

- Reposted by Lisa ChapmanIn July last year a wonderful group of people came together to create an ebooklet on neurodiversity to raise money for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Since then we have raised over £2000. Now more than ever the people of Gaza need our help. To get a copy see below. @commonsenseslt.bsky.social

- "To continue shielding Israel from accountability is to abandon the principles of justice & human rights. The UK must not be an ally to Israel’s atrocities, must act decisively to end its complicity, demonstrate genuine leadership in peace & justice for Palestinians" www.map.org.uk/news/archive...
- 1/3 Being busy or just being. Thoughts for wellbeing. Systems are always busy. Busy doing to, busy counting outcomes of what is done, busy counting those who are counting & doing. So much counting things that can be counted, but not everything that can be counted is necessarily good for wellbeing.

- 1/3 Neuroaffirming ways of being - knowing your authentic self & being able to lean it to just that #monotropism “The idea of building life around a handful of things, and recognising that I do my best when I can get into long flowy attention tunnels." @jamieandlion.bsky.social 🤩 link below 3/3
- We are a society swamped by misinformation. It tempts & reassures us. We see it, when we step away from its lure, into reality & see the world as it is. The social media posts of a #genocide, the destruction of climate & environment. This is the horror of 'real', not the fiction our politicians spin
- There are simply two types of humans in the world. Those who believe in & represent humanity & those who don't. Underneath all the politics, rhetoric, spin it's that simple. History will judge.

- 1/6 Smoke from fires, bombs & shattered buildings fills the screens that reach out to those who dare to look. Through the shared electronic connections, the screens held by human hands across the divide of nations, we see the truth.
