screaming and crying and throwing up do you understand that among autistic people with postsecondary degrees (aka graduated from college) less than 70% are employed and among those, the average monthly income is less than $850? and among autistic people who graduated with a high school diploma (not a special education completion certificate, which is different, but were successful enough in general education classes to earn a standard diploma) earn on average $8.90 an hour, and work fewer than 15 hours a week? and this is just among people who can work. 42% of us have never worked at all by age 25.

just because a few (mostly white, mostly male) autistic people work in tech doesn’t mean that our poverty rates aren’t abysmal. elon musk does not fucking represent us.
