How can you go to concerts when you’re autistic?”

- music is my special interest and has been a way to express myself
- i am not only a sensory avoider, but also a sensory seeker
- i use loud music as a way to drown out other sensory input
- singing and dancing are a way of stimming for me
- screaming certain lyrics at the top of my lungs at concerts give me an opportunity to feel and express feelings that i’m otherwise not able to identify

Who should you thank for Facebook’s Libra?

• “One of the UK’s leading privacy researchers”
• University College London
• The DECODE project

And, if you’re an EU citizen who pays their taxes,

• You.

Surprised? Don’t be.
