It is a blog to celebrate and teach people about my life as an Autistic and disabled person, the disability community, the Autistic community, and what the Autistic community can do better in fighting against medical charity organizations like Autism Speaks.

This blog will also teach self-advocacy effectiveness from the standpoint from Autistic people themselves. It is not a blog to promote medical charity organizations agendas, tokens (posters of inspiration or martyrs), and research to eradicate Autistic people like what (if any) causes and cures autism. This blog does not use functioning labels like 'high' and 'low' functioning either.

It is also NOT a blog to promote elitism in general in any way shape and form. Thus, the blog is here to promote equality, acceptance, celebration, and treating everyone with dignity and respect. 

This blog is to help heal the many stigmas and stereotypes that hurt disabled people and many other cultures every day.

This blog promotes self-determined language, not pathology based (person first) language. In that case, I use identity first language, but I accept language any one else uses. 

It is a blog to celebrate the human race. 

There will be the Autistic Artistic Carnival online edition for the 7th year in a row on June 18, Autistic Pride Day. It originally started in 2010 on my old blog which ended. The carnival is for Autistic writers, artists, scientists, inventors, and many other creative mediums.

Let's begin and remember, I'm not done yet...
