If you buy a lot of crap from China - as I am at the moment - you'll notice the use of any old letters together as a brand name. Here they've gone one step further and created a slogan with it. Quite inspirational, I myself shall be trying to be more consciously jsver from now on.

This episode is a whistle stop tour of our relationships with things and particularly about "moving" with them. The relationship autistic people have with inanimate objects has often been misunderstood, dismissed and even pathologised by non-autistic onlookers.

Here's my dogs, Woody & Molly. #AuDHD
