re: Various posts on non-speaking communication, limited speech, scripting 

@stackingstones@todon.nl Goshhh I have so many thoughts on language*Autism overlap stuff, verbal speech being hard, ppl being pushed to use it/not given alternatives, need for by-for Autistic options & resources, etc.

Thanks for linking to these anyway, they're useful
