Turns out that organising a festival which is both populated and run by neurodivergents is equal parts trying to poke half of them to do a thing because it would really be helpful if they did it like now and also trying to encourage the other half to just shh for a second because while their enthusiasm is lovely it's not actually HELPFUL RIGHT NOW.
While also wrestling with my own neurodivergent brain which occasionally falls over and goes "no. NO. TREES." for like 48 hours at a time.
@sophiegarrett it really is a whole thing. Every now and then someone outside will make uninformed comments on how this thing must happen and, well, it’s never like they imagine.
