Note For Anyone Writing About Me

Guide to Writing About Me

I am an Autistic person,not a person with autism. I am also not Aspergers. The diagnosis isn't even in the DSM anymore, and yes, I agree with the consolidation of all autistic spectrum stuff under one umbrella. I have other issues with the DSM.

I don't like Autism Speaks. I'm Disabled, not differently abled, and I am an Autistic activist. Self-advocate is true, but incomplete.

Chinese-English Glossary

I speak Chinese. Sometimes I use a Chinese phrase. Usually, I will explain in post, but if I forget, here they are:

两件事儿                                             Two completely different things/matters
咋了 or 怎么了                                    How/How the.../How does that even work?
牛肉拉面                                             Beef Lo Mein (the actual Chinese way)

  1. 没问题, 谢谢 - but my Chinese is not that good - would love to improve it though :-)
