Salisbury Autistic Care - How Housing Options Impact Quality of Life?
Empowering Autistic Individuals
Did you know that one in every 100 individuals is on the autistic spectrum and there are around 700,000 autistic adults and children in the UK?
While most of the time focus is on early diagnosis and treatment, individuals on the autistic spectrum face many challenges in their day-to-day lives. This is because we are not sensitive to their needs, and our social spaces are not designed to factor in the challenges they face. That is the reason why specialised homes for autist people become all the more important. It provides them with a safe space to relax and be at ease.
In this blog, we delve into this topic further and also learn how Salisbury Autistic Care: A Sanctuary of Support for People on the Autism Spectrum is working towards making autism-friendly homes.

Importance of the Right Housing Environment
As is true with most people, the housing environment affects an individual’s ability to thrive and lead a fulfilling life. Autistic people need to have spaces where there is no sensory overload. Be it in terms of bright colours, light, or loud noises. They thrive in spaces where there is minimum exposure to stimuli. Therefore, creating homes with muted colours, natural lighting, and sound insulation enables them to feel comfortable and at ease.
Support Services
Adults with autism may require ongoing support with their daily activities. Therefore, housing arrangements where they can find support but still have their own independence is the need of the hour. In addition to this, ensuring access to behavioural therapy, life skills training, and other services helps them cope better and gradually build self-confidence.
Inclusive Community Living
Although people with autism do not like sensory overload, meeting with new people and developing strong bonds within the community helps them thrive. It also helps reduce the stigma associated with autistic people and promotes inclusivity and understanding. Inclusive community living arrangements, such as group homes or intentional communities, offer opportunities for social interaction, support, and belonging. By fostering a sense of community and connection, these housing options can combat feelings of isolation and promote social integration for individuals with autism.
Person-centred planning
Person-centred planning prioritizes the autonomy and agency of individuals with autism by involving them, their families, and support teams in decision-making processes. This collaborative effort results in tailored plans that address the individual's unique strengths, challenges, and aspirations.

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them
People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human
“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”
“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”
“Yeah!!”
“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”
“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“
“How illogical”
“That’s what I’m saying!!!”
#star trek#Vulcans#Humans#not based on a specific thing#but I used to know this annoying couple that were ‘family friends’#who would show up to potluck dinners and the like and would either bring nothing or bring something really just. out of left field?#like a bag of frozen chicken to a bbq#and then proceed to make sure they are first even if it was stated to let kids go first#would take HUGE amounts before anyone else got a chance to get a plate#and then make off with the leftovers again even if they were already claimed for#and it wasn’t a food insecurity thing trust me I would never speak bad about a person getting food if that was even a remote chance#the adults who raised us knew them really well and we’d been to their house a ton of times#they were just dicks#and yeah. they’d occasionally insult the food. while eating the MAJORITY of it.#it was so weird at their home they would go out of their way to get the healthiest options possible#you know the really bland tasteless expensive stuff that apparently was healthier#but then if they were visiting our house they would. eat all our unhealthy snacks.#that always pissed me off so much as a kid because we actually had a food insecurity thing going on#and also a variety of other reasons that are a bit too depressing to bring up on this post#but anyways we’d hardly ever get to have nice snacks#and this couple would just take them all??? even after we’d tell them repeatedly that it was ours and those snacks weren’t gonna be#replaced#hated that couple#if you’re wondering why they were ‘family friends’ it’s because the couple who raised us#(it feels weird to type it out like that but apparently legal guardians doesn’t fit since they never finished petitioning 💀)#liked having them around because it made them look like ‘such great Christian’s’ being nice to the people#that no one else wanted to be friends with#I always thought that was a really weird and fucked up reason to be friends with someone#this got long sorry 😭

Wake Up Washington! HB1110 and HB1337 Are Now Law
AND THEY ARE CHANGING HOW YOU WILL DO BUSINESS!
Tumblr media
This week I want to talk about what is changing in housing here in Washington State, with two new housing bills that Governor Jay Inslee signed-into law this past May, 2023.
youtube
The first one I want to talk about is HB1110. For those of you who don't know about it, please look it up. This legislation was designed to increase middle-housing opportunities in areas that were traditionally zoned single-family residential (SFR). That means that there are huge changes that have happened regarding what can be done with land that was originally zoned to only have one home on it. This legislation is changing how agents:
Price Property: Finding comparative properties and knowing how to price property that can support middle-housing development just got a whole lot more interesting.
Market Property: No longer are we just focused on the home. Suddenly, the property potential could be a huge game-changer to how you market a listing.
Research Property: If middle-housing development is an option, you need to know how this will benefit home sellers and how to communicate this opportunity to them.
If you are selling a single-family home now and that property or home has the ability to have additional units or product put onto it, could that property now be worth more money? These are the kinds of things that you will need to know.
SPECIALIZED ADU AND DEVELOPMENT TRAINING STARTS THIS OCTOBER AND LESS THAN FIVE SPOTS REMAIN!
youtube
This training on ADUs, valuation, condoization, development, density, and more will take place during ENCORE beginning in October through April. This is the cutting-edge training you need to understand the massive changes that are coming to our market with House Bills 1337 and 1110, as well as Comprehensive Plan Updates.
REACH OUT TO LEARN MORE
The other house bill that was signed into law is HB1337. This bill was specifically designed to expand housing options by easing the barriers to construction. This is a huge one. Here, you have single-family residence properties that can now support ADU/DADU buildings and additions. This is going to affect not just property value, but will affect neighbors, the selling and buying of property, and more.
Both of these house bills are changing everything that agents think they know about valuing property and I highly recommend that you become familiar with both of these bills, because you are going to be hearing a lot more about them.
I've been following these bills since they were first presented, the conversations around them as they have been debated, amended, and evolved. These bills weren't just introduced and then passed. They have seen extensive review, conversation, and input. The bottom-line is that at the highest levels of government in the State of Washington, they are aware that there is simply not enough housing. Affordable housing continues to be a major challenge in many markets and that is one of the reasons these bills were created. We must have that middle market for housing and the changes to the barriers for construction will be a big part of the long-term solution that these bills help provide.

Kuzu: I get the impression that the vampire interview is about if everybody from your local queer scene was immortal and you couldn’t get away from them. This is an effective vampire premise because unlike most, it fills me with genuine horror
Pip: yeah vampire interview is like "what if there were genuinely so few of you that if you wanted to be around anyone who you could even slightly relate to you would have to be in a bullshit theater cult in France." absolutely chilling to imagine, thanks

alright, question for the esteemed jury (though I imagine this will be a uniquely american, if not perhaps also canadian, experience):
are you familiar with the children's game that involves slapping hands around a circle while singing a song that begins "down by the banks of the hanky panky"
and if you are, how did the rest of the song go for you

Right, so Dennis' first course of action for 'getting Mac out of the house' was to meet him on a dating app as a fake person named Johnny, buy Mac remote controlled anal beads and convince him to go about his daily tasks with them in, form a close enough relationship with him that Mac tells Dennis about Johnny, and keep this up for what has to be many weeks to months of back and forth "almost" hook-ups
as opposed to, you know, just getting Mac a real boyfriend using the foolproof dating system for men that he's had for 15 years? The dating system that would have worked for Mac securing a boyfriend if it hadn't been for the fact that Johnny was still on his mind?
Yeah, sure, that's cool.

So I’ve concluded that there are 2 possible explanations for the Titan having a Hooty sticking out of his eye:
1) This is simply a component of Papa Titan choosing to appear as an amalgamation of King’s family: glyph pajama pants for Luz, Bad Girl Coven t-shirt for Eda, & an eyeball parasite for Hooty
2) The Hooty backstory they had to cut for time was going to amount to “Turns out your house is the optic nerve of god.”
