Will 🏳️‍🌈I'm rather proud of myself, and my husband was as well. We went to a food pantry for the first time, and it wasn't quite as scary as I thought it would be. But my autistic self was internally screaming just a bit from the newness and unfamiliarity of it all.<a href="https://mindly.social/tags/FoodPantry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FoodPantry</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/actuallyautistic" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@actuallyautistic</a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ActuallyAutistic</a>
