Incredibly excited to share Gravitar: Recharged ... phenomenal work by @SneakyBox, @theadamvision, @MeganMcDuffee and @JaysOfDoom ... super ambitious take on an equally ambitious original.

Ten years has passed since the death of Jack Tramiel. I want to remember him with this beautiful #pixelart (Papa Jack, Piesu, 2012) for #Atari 8-bit computers. #JackTramiel

An autistic person achieving something isn’t proof that they’re faking their disability or that they have no challenges. It’s proof that they’re determined, hardworking and talented. Please don’t penalise autistic people for trying their best by ignoring/denying their challenges.

Ugh, just saw a reminder that it’s #AutismAcceptance month again soon. Honestly if folks can’t accept my weirdness and difference when they *don’t* think it’s about autism, they have no business thinking they accept (or understand) autism 🙄

I'm not successful in spite of my autism, I'm successful in spite of the whole world telling me how wrong I am all of the time, when I'm actually doing what is right for me most of the time.

“You’re not Autistic. You’re nothing like the Autistics on TV!”
And Lady Gaga doesn’t wear her meat dress all the time, but you don’t doubt her identity just because she doesn’t look like a version you saw once on celebrity news.
