Autistics and Friends
Autistics and Friends
Erika and Frida
It’s like hanging out with friends, if your friends were all autistic and neurodivergent and talked about it all the time. Personal stories, current events, and neurodiversity theory without the ableism, topped with entirely too much autistic sarcasm.
The Neurodivergent Relationship to Change
Are neurodivergent people bad with change? On this episode of Autistics and Friends, Erika and Frida explore their own relationships to change as autistic and neurodivergent people, catch you up on the big life changes they've made since the last episode, and issue wild conjecture about neurotypicals.
