[librarycards]

hi sarah, appreciate the work you do (it is so important and compelling, i virtually discovered the concept of anti-psychiatry through your blog). i was wondering whether you could recommend some texts (of any kind: books, articles, etc) specifically focused on autism and the autistic experience from a neuroqueer/transMad perspective. thanks so much

thank you so much for the kind words!!

i've written about this in a few places:

The Queer Aut of Failure: Cripistemic Openings for Postgraduate Life

Social Skills: a transdyke autie-biography

Mel Baggs Will Never Leave Us

Some other pieces and books of note:

Mel Baggs's oeuvre. (Blog) (Another blog)

M. Remi Yergeau, Wandering Rhetoric, Rhetoric Wandering and Clinically Significant Disturbance: On Theorists Who Theorize Theory of Mind and all of their work!

Jake Pyne, Autistic Disruptions, Trans Temporalities (Pyne has a bunch of excellent work on neuroqueerness and (imo) transMadness!)

J. Logan Smilges, Crip Negativity and Queer Silence (and other works!)

Jess Rauchberg, Imagining a Neuroqueer Technoscience.

*You may notice that this list is very white and TME. Yes, and that's a massive problem. If anyone has recommendations that break this mold, I am begging you to let me know, as there are so many gaps in the still-nascent theorization around autism from a critical Mad perspective.

walrusfairy is actually my first non-doctor who url since eleanorvancecoded but now watching small worlds i’m thinking it still kind of is. gwen you’ve seen multiple aliens and a real honest to god pterodactyl is the existence of fairies on your doorstep really that hard to believe

alright now that i’ve finished series 8 (yippie) i think i can finally change my url to something related to my latest SI, good thing i’ve had a few of these saved for quite some time. now help me choose, because this is not a decision you make lightly.

pros: CANON URL (i am amazed it wasn’t already taken), one of the best donna episodes, one of the best s4 episodes in general, hell, one of the best episodes period, this one seems like an outlier because all of the others are twelve-related but technically this ep has capaldi in it so it is as well

cons: can’t even think of any tbh but i prefer the next one personally

pros: does it even need saying. tell me i’m right. this is the best one

cons: literally none.

pros: clara oswald has never existed. clara oswald is everything. clara oswald has always been here. clara oswald lives in my brain 24/7 and just won’t leave. clara oswald lies

cons: as toxic and manipulative as i can be at times, i’m nowhere near as confident or wilful as clara, so i’m not really “clara coded” at all. eleanor vance coded— that i am, but clara would snicker at me . good url in theory not a good fit for me

pros: fits my pfp, accurate descriptor of the owner of this blog, cute and real

cons: fits my pfp (don’t wanna be repetitive); tumblr user ‘elevensbian’ might hbomberguy me for it and to be fair they’d be completely in the right to do so

pros: it’s true! That’s all there is to it.

cons: the username itself just doesn’t look good visually for some reason. cannot explain why

eleanorvancecoded has been with me for a good few months at least, time to say goodbye to her and move along until something else comes along to grip my mind the way this terrible show has. and ignore the 100000 tags, i’m trying to get attention for a larger voting pool

watching ghost light now. love it when doccy who does hauntings, obviously that’s my bias showing (f.k.a eleanorvancecoded) but it really is a deeply haunted show at its core so when they do it they do it well — the unquiet dead, hide, heaven sent, knock knock, the haunting of villa diodati — from what i’ve heard this one’s a classic (no pun intended) so here we fuckin go

hello normal people. dearest of goodbyes to my sweet eleanorvancecoded, we had a good run. pfp and username finally match. nobody tell anybody i’m still on series 9

i have a canon url but i’m not allowed to use it yet . plus i like eleanorvancecoded well enough. being as eleanor vance coded as i am

[digitalafterlife]

every evening like clockwork jamie eleanorvancecoded clocks in to their tumblr to dutifully reblogue a couple of gifsets and a few textposts and share their opinions about the two or three doccy who episodes they just watched for the first time ever. and every day their mutuals are probably closer to softblocking than the day before
