This Asian Heritage Month I wanted to touch on something that doesn’t get enough space in our community: the intersection of race and neurodivergence.
Masking as an autistic person is obviously exhausting. On top of that, masking as the daughter my parents dreamed of burned me out as even before I became a lawyer like they wanted.
In a lot of our communities, mental health is still taboo and autism is still invisible…
This is just my experience. I don’t speak for all Asian people or all autistic people but if any part of this resonates, I see you 🤍
Also, in the spirit of highlighting Asian voices this month, I want to shout out my new friend Anna, who started the most beautiful podcast rooted in the idea that we don’t have to fit in one box… that we don’t have to be who our families imagined, or even who we thought we should be.

Also does anybody else get creeped out by lobsters

Pls pray for us lol 🫠 Recipe:
- Sauté one sliced onion and two minced cloves of garlic in neutral oil
- add in ground beef (amount is up to you)
- season with salt, pepper, 1.5 tbsp soy sauce
- add in Japanese instant curry cubes and mix until paste like consistency
- I added 3 cups of broth. Use beef broth ideally
- let it boil the add in eggs. Stir slowly so as not to break it up
- garnish with green onion and bonito flakes (optional)
This recipe is a noodle soup. It’s not a curry udon if that makes sense

I used to be the girl that always needed a boyfriend to feel valued… turns out a lot of neurodivergent women have this issue… needless to say, I think when that article came out last year, I was triggered. I questioned whether I was reverting back to my old codependent self who had little self self-esteem.
But I know this relationship is different because I am different. I worked hard to decenter men and focus on myself… I know my value outside of this relationship but I als know how valuable this relationship is to me.
Loving my bf teaches me so much about myself every single day. I’m also learning about what partnership really is. What love can really do.
Anyways, don’t let the Internet make you feel embarrassed about your relationship lol. You can still be interesting and valuable while posting about your bf lol💕
