Luke Campbell
“If we don't laugh at a joke, it doesn't necessarily mean we didn't get it - maybe it just wasn't funny.”
Luke Campbell, The Neurospicy Guide for Beginners: The Tiny Introduction to Neurodiversity

Sol Smith
“After all, simply saying “We’re all on the spectrum” is a cognitive roadblock. It’s absolutely efficient, in an energy consumptive way. We see this method used all the time when people use thought-terminating clichés to end a problem-solving process and settle their thinking: It is what it is. Don’t rock the boat. That’s not how we do things here. It’s above your pay grade. Let’s agree to disagree. YOLO.”
Sol Smith, The Autistic's Guide to Self-Discovery: Flourishing as a Neurodivergent Adult
