It has been brought to my attention that, in a totally typical thing of me, I didn't even mentioned that this was an episode of the Acoustical Society of America's podcast, and that I was invited to it to chat about my research. 😃

For one of my studies, I did interviews to autistic people on the impact of daily life acoustic environments. Many of them had been teachers, and we wrote a paper about their (quite bad) experiences in schools. Here's me talking (a lot...) about the topic

@Beatriz_efe Esto es un ejemplo perfecto de lo que pasa en UK con la percepción de clase. Los ricos que trabajaban y eran no aristócratas se empezaron a identificar como working class para diferenciarse. A día de hoy un 1/4 de los que ganan +£100.000 se identifican como “clase trabajadora”.

@R3n4lbar I will always wonder what would be considered "autistic traits" if clinicians hadn't observed mostly just the behaviour of that kind of men, and if they had knowledge about intersectional privilege and entitlement.

@TheAngelus86 @ashura_stuff @CarmenAgustin @marioliva73 Sí, sí, extremista... somos muchos los que nos hemos quedado con hambre porque se suponía que teníamos que llevar nosotros *nuestra* comida. 😂🥺 Igual con la bebida, aunque es verdad que es muy cara y así nadie paga lo de nadie. Es un cada uno pa lo suyo pa to, ay.

The Israeli government doesn't authorize Brazilians or Irish citizens to leave Gaza because their governments ask for a ceasefire. It's a government with the morals of a spoilt and violent teenager.

So bc Brazil first proposed a ceasefire— the most subdued declaration to prevent loss of human life— Israel responds by holding 34+ Brazilian families hostage in Gaza, the place they’re currently bombing relentlessly. Yet we are supposed to believe HAMAS is the terrorist org..?

@elsalwilliams This story represents really well how autistic men feel more entitled and are allowed by social expectations and gender roles to just spend time in special interests without being disturbed, as someone highlighted in a talk. And the different in treatment starts in childhood.

@bluedwagon @ItsEmilyKaty Sometimes they add more sugar for conservation so just careful with that. :) I eat so much more fruit when I can do a shake, especially with some yogurt, and the plus is that you can add a bit of cocoa or carob flour with the banana and pear and it's 👌 or smooth oats too.

@sbaroncohen But does autism really mean any of those other things? Why not working on being scientifically specific so everyone, espec more vulnerable, gets research and support needed instead of ideating qualifying adjectives for autism itself that can end in broad, stigmatising hierarchy?

@La_Muerta_Viva Cuando leo lo de "es q daría igual q fuera trans" personalmente pienso sí, claro, pero creo q este caso va del policing tan loco al q estamos llegando de cómo se puede o no ser mujerTM, y esto afecta a las trans tb. Todas tenemos q poder ir con chándal y vello y espatarrarnos??

@wolfe32354937 @samah_fadil Do you realise people from marginalised minorities are humans being too and not pure angels and we can be mean and horrible and racists and misogynistic and homophobic and transphobic and can and do weaponise our identities and it's actually healthy and right to call that out?

@LutherEnjoyer @sanjayuvacha A leaked video from 2001 shows Israeli PM Netanyahu talking about how Israel intentionally strikes Palestinians “painfully”, how he deceived the US to break the Oslo Accords, and how Americans will always support Israel if it faces backlash

A Lebanese friend told me 20 years ago about how Israel put bombs inside plush toys and left them under bridges so they could use children to activate them. He also remembered the effect of the vacuum bombs they used in his town. But Israel kept being the good guy.

@MichaelRosenYes @JoanneLimburg It's crazy. Even in south Spain is not so easy, and the right government introduced a "sun tax". Still some good examples, like Ikea and the Industrial Engineering School in Málaga. Maybe I'm missing some drawbacks, but imagine if there were panels over most parking spots...

@medicblasto En muchos grupos de enfermos, especialmente los crónicos, aprecian muchísimo cuando la persona que los atiende se pone a investigar en vez de decir lo primero que piensan. Ojalá más profesionales, de lo que sea, reconociendo que nadie lo sabe todo y queriendo aprender.
