Re: trump winning?

i completely agree. whilst i respect that people will have different political opinions on both Trump and Harris, i was definitely team Kamala, and do worry for the women and various minority groups in the USA given the political stand-point Trump takes on several important topics. I do think it's crazy how he could even run for president given his 'history' with the law. Personally, I believe Kamala would have been a MUCH better president, and i think she did an amazing job with the short amount of time she had to run her campaign.

And I think that for us it is still okay to feel nervous and worried. whilst we may not be in the USA, American politics can often impact on an international scale.

So take this as a reminder to take care of your mental health too during this time - it's okay to feel anxious about what's happening in the world right now. and I'm sending you all lots of hugs.

Re: Is it time?

I'd say eventhough its November (and Xmas genuinely starts December the 1st), Id say if watching xmas movies makes you feel good and also happy then go for it!. I will be honest I may have been watching the christmas channel recently and hallmark movies are a guilty pleasure of mine too

Also Halloween has ended so Xmas is here!.

Re: ASD "round up"

@Ems222 I find that for a lot of us neurodiverse folk we definitely do mask around nearly almost everyone we meet but it can also vary from time to time especially around people we may know too. I think its all about trying out different things and figuring out what makes you feel comfortable and when you feel comfortable to take the mask off as well. I hope your doing ok right now
