This episode addresses how autistic people are commodified within the neoliberal capitalistic system. They are made into products within an educational and health care system that includes abusive practices such as Applied Behavior Analysis. I discuss some of the worst examples of this abuse, including the torture of autistic children at the Judge Rotenberg Center.

As a bit of a break from researching and writing, this week's episode is a compilation of four of my old WordPress blog articles. I will be telling you about the concept of "PerSEVERance," as opposed to "perseverance." I will also tell you about "Aphantaisa," "Sentinel Intelligence," and "Imposter Syndrome." I want to remind you that the transcripts are on my WordPress blog called Autism and The Human with Limbic Noodle.

The concept of an environmental body versus a body that is an environmental risk meets at the intersection of many marginalized identities.

What factors are considered in what bodies are considered Environmental Risk?

This episode is about Autistic Masking, and how you can make it easier for Autistic people to unmask. Autistic masking causes anxiety, depression, and suicidal ideation. Yet it continues to be considered by many to be the ultimate goal for autistic individuals. How can we make classrooms, homes, workplaces and society in general safe places for autistic people to unmask?
