Nurse giving me report on a patient: and by the way so you’re not caught off guard, he has a tattoo that says “confident fag” on his chest
Me, a confident dyke: haha nice
The nurse: what?
Me: sorry I’m also gay and think that tattoo rules
The nurse: ????????
Me:
Me remembering I don’t hear so good: what did you say the tattoo was?
The nurse: a confederate flag
Me: OH NO WAIT OOPS

I was thinking about how humans have an impressive tolerance for many kinds of substances compared to other animals. Caffeine, alcohol and cacao, for example, can be lethal to dogs and cats, but we seek those out regularly. That led to me remembering that acetaminophen is sometimes mistakenly given to cats, and it very much kills them. I was wondering if that's because they're less tolerant, or because they're tiny. If I gave my cat (10 pounds) 250mg of acetaminophen, it would be roughly the same as me (160-ish pounds) taking 6000 mg!
Naturally, that led me too Google, and uh...

Yeah I was in full research mode and didn't even consider what that question could imply. I guess I'm glad that this is the first thing that shows up tho....

Why self-diagnosed autistics are valid
Tumblr media
medical diagnosis can be expensive
humans are the experts on their own minds
family may prevent assessment
diagnosis criteria is a poor checklist of stereotypes
diagnosis criteria ignores gender, race, sexuality, culture & more
medical diagnosis confirms autism, but doesn't create it
discrimination within the medical profession may prevent diagnosis.
Assessment waiting lists often long
medical trauma may make assessment unfeasible
