Got some friends you can't count on? If so, John Lyly (1580) has this advice for you:
He says such friends are like eels. You can't hold an eel w/ bare hands, so you use "a bitter fig leafe" wrap. And w/ your "friends", use "rough taunts", not "smooth talk" to keep them in true. #eels#history#friends
It is good to be independent -- far, far better than being a follower or acolyte. But I believe we achieve our best results when we pool our resources and skills, as independent, strong individuals, and work together in friendship.
Tonight I chilled and played FIFA with my oldest friend for the first time in as long as I can remember. We've had our difficulties in the past but it's great that we've been able to put it behind us, build our relationship back up and get back to the good old times. 💜
I'd like to announce not one, but TWO new #Discord servers for #Neurodivergent people in the #UpstateNY area! Both have been in the works for a while, but have now actually launched. If they apply to you and you're interested, I would be overjoyed if you joined either or both. If the links have expired by the time you're reading this, feel free to message me.
The first is a general server for #Autistic people with any connections to anywhere in Upstate NY. Open-minded #Allies seeking to listen to autistics and become better allies are also welcome. It's a #SafeSpace for building #Community, making #Friends, chatting, and possibly hanging out together IRL or planning #LocalActivism. This server is pro #Neurodiversity, pro #SelfDX, #Intersectional, and not for parents or service providers (unless you're autistic yourself).

The second is for the Neurodivergent #Solarpunk#Anarchist Community Space. This is a very long-term project for a brick-and-mortar #Cooperative community space in the #FingerLakes area. The hope is that, when the place can actually be built, it will be a site for #MutualAid, #Permaculture, #Education, #Recreation, and all sorts of other projects of, by, and for the community, with the overarching goal of building and supporting neurodivergent solarpunk anarchist community at a local level. This cooperative also embodies the hope of bringing genuine #Joy, #Connection, and #Inspiration to the world as a whole.
