Last Notes npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. How do I get crows to start coming to my yard? I want to be their friend but I don’t go places where crows are so I’d like to try and get them to come to me 🐦⬛ npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. I love waking up to the sound of rain and thunder ⛈️ npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Will probably be kind of quiet on here during my vacation next week, try not to do anything too interesting until I get back because I have FOMO, ok? npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Great news!! New Hampshire is eliminating their state autism registry!! https://t.co/r7Vgcc7QK1 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. #SelfCareSunday npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Is it really autistic pride day?? Ahhh I didn’t prepare anything! npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. If you need a laugh though, there’s a Facebook page called Farmer Girl that’s an AI trying to catfish people and…the tech needs some tweaks npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Sunday snuggles 💜 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Caption this? npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Hey remember in 2016 when clowns were chasing people? Did we ever figure out what that was about, or did they stop and we just decided not to question it further? npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Today is my birthday, and if anyone is so inclined, here are three orgs I like to support: npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. I guess I’d been hoping that “brain worms” were made up for memes and bits but now I’m forced to confront that they are very real. I may never sleep again. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. No mask mandate because South Dakotans are “too smart” to need one, but she overturned our vote to legalize weed because we “didn’t understand” what we were voting for 🙄 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Having a high anxiety evening for no particular reason. Reminding myself my feelings can be both valid and not grounded in reality. 💜 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. I’m only interested in feedback about autistic representation from #ActuallyAutistic folks. If you’re not autistic, you’re welcome to listen and learn in these discussions, quietly. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. It was raining, then it dropped below freezing, now it's supposed to snow for 20 hours and then get really windy. It's springtime in South Dakota. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. A tale of two companies.... npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. A company I do education for asked me to prepare a talk and asked what my rate would be. I told them, and they replied that they had budgeted $100 more than I asked for so they'd be paying me over my rate. This is the way, not asking people to work for free. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Shout out to my co-author, Armani the cat, for elevating my manuscript quality 🤣 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Continuing Education Course: Neurodiversity-Affirming Psychological Evaluations: ADHD and Autism npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Hi friends! I have another article to write. The topic is ADHD-ers sharing our experience of what it is like existing as an ADHD-er. Need to send questions to about five folks about their stories. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. San Diego State University has put a form on their website encouraging students to snitch on faculty who cancel class for the strike. You know what they say, snitches get a ton of spam responses npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. When you de-activate LinkedIn, it shows you a random person you're connected to and says you're going to "lose" that person. 🤣 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Florida’s New “Special Persons Registry”: I Hate It npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. @npub1ccn…czwu Random unsolicited advice: if you suddenly start experiencing “demonic forces” in your home, check for a carbon monoxide leak. It can cause hallucinations, weird behavior, irritability, etc npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. At the craft fair today, a child asked me, “What do you wish you did in real life?” I’m not sure what he meant so I’ll share it here. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. I find it ironic that a company that paid me to do a write up about how competitive pay is the #1 predictor of employee retention and satisfaction just denied me a raise because "your pay is already above the network average," even though I looked at the numbers myself and my pay is in fact 75% BELOW the network average. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Since it’s scary season (the best time of the year), I’m sharing a horror movie resource I use a lot: doesthedogdie.com npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. The Catholic college where I got my BA released a statement today saying they're changing their admissions policy to explicitly support and respect all students' gender identities, including all trans and non-binary students. This is huge - last year my Catholic high school issued the opposite policy. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Your value as a human is not tied to your ability to contribute to capitalism 💜 npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. My neighbor is having a yard sale and is selling a ton of yarn for cheap. npub10vl0yl0c70gv2cvsmlnys7kksecpue9yurmxsjuyu4wk2whvrn6qaaxsf2 Dr. Amy, Psy.D. Stop demanding people out themselves. Some queer people have homophobic/transphobic relatives and it’s not safe for their sexual orientation or gender identity to get back to their family. Some queer people live in states where the government is actively trying to kill them. Some queer people simply don’t want to share that information with you.
