A non-linear spectrum
The main takeaway for me was that autism is a non-linear spectrum and there are many different elements that autistic people struggle or do well in on varying levels. Everyone with autism has unique challenges and strengths and supporting autistic people in environments that disable them usually cannot be done with general broad practices or systems.

One takeaway from today's lecture was the concept of inspiration porn. I had never heard of this term before but it totally makes sense now and I can think of times when I've heard it. The TedTalk with Stella was pretty eye-opening into the harms of inspiration porn.
