Can you easily read the pictured text?
It is upside down and backwards so start in the bottom left corner.
ALT The following is upside down and backward. If you can easily read this, please share this tweet to help raise awareness. Unless you actively trained yourself to read upside down and backwards, it means that your brain is, for one reason or another, working in an atypical manner and that means that you are not Neurotypical. This means that you are Neurodivergent and statistically that means anyone following you has an above average chance of being Neurodivergent too!
