   Ah, interesting situation.

   As far as I know the only options with advanced scheduling stuff would be third party commercial services like those linked in the original post?

   @jupiter_rowland > That's because I had to cover a lot…

   That's the point I'm trying to explain. You're going to end up with a very long post to cover every possible scenario to the point that your post won't be readable or comprehensible anymore. ^_^

   > Re: eyes

   Believe it or not, there are. As I've mentioned earlier, those are fine with me, especially since I am wearing eyeglasses and I've learned ways to avoid eye contact. However, that's just me, each autistic person is unique.

   > I think the correct term should be "person in the autistic spectrum".

   It depends on who you ask.

   Based on my own observation over this debate, it is usually parents and non-autistics who prefer “person with autism”. While the “person with autism” they call mostly (not all) prefers “autistic person” or “autistics”.

   As for “person in the autistic spectrum”, that's new. This is the first I've heard of it and it appears to me as an attempt to combine “person with autism” and “autistic person” and “autism spectrum disorder” into one. And… surprise… there are “persons with autism” and “autistic persons” who also do not like “in the ‘autism/autistic’ spectrum” because it sounds like the person was placed inside a certain box, you know, “in the” or “inside the spectrum”.

   Going back, from autism alone, you will probably end up with a very long alt-text, description, or posts, just to cover everything. So, my take on this, your own instance rules and keep it simple.

   I use “autistic” and “autistic person”, if someone from the “person with autism” camp doesn't like it, I don't care.

   Or, for example, someone tells me to CW my political/elections posts, I don't care either. My instance doesn't have draconic rules, and in my country, in our culture, we have zero issues about political/election related posts. In fact, we prefer to see it so we can make informed decisions.

   Somewhere, you will have to draw the line. ^_^

   Anyway, going back to the eyes… if you really want to cover all bases, then the best course of action is to cover the eyes. So if your post gets reshared… there's no risk of offending someone, or putting someone in an uncomfortable situation.

   As we often say, no two autistics are the same.
