Seven sibling sites, all free, all yours to share
Stimpunks is not only stimpunks.org. Over the past year we have built seven smaller sites, each doing one thing the big site cannot. All seven are free and open-licensed, and all seven were made with Helen Edgar at Autistic Realms and More Realms.
★ stuff
Zines and field guides on stellar nucleosynthesis, piezoelectric bones, and the neurodiversity paradigm. Every atom heavier than hydrogen was forged in a star — which means you belong here as your differences, not despite them. We love you down to your star stuff.
Queering.Earth
Close readings of the canon — art, literature, poetry, politics, people, history — asking what else any of it could have been, so the arrangements we were handed stop looking like the only ones available. Queering is a verb.
Cavendish Space
Places built to fit bodyminds, not the other way round. Cavendish Cards lets you point at a picture instead of explaining — no reading needed, no scoring, nothing shared until you turn a card up. Zone a room works out which zones a room you actually have can hold, and prints signs for the door, because a cave only works if people know not to talk in it.
Map of Monotropic Experiences
Twenty places a monotropic mind goes. Some of them are where the good work happens; some of them are weather that other people make. This is Helen Edgar’s map of her own Autistic and ADHD experience, and it turned out that a great many of us live here too.
Penguin Pebbling
A game of creating belonging, built on the Five Neurodivergent Love Locutions. No winners and no pressure to perform. Draw a card, share in whatever way feels right, pass a real pebble when something lands, and leave whenever you need to.
The Why Sheet Press
Families are asked again and again to justify what should be obvious, in rooms that leave them no time to do it. Why Sheets make the case in advance — the research, the law, and the lived experience, cited and ready to hand over. Tick the sheets you need for Thursday’s meeting and the press hands back one correctly paginated PDF, with a cover page you can put a name and a date on, that prints at actual size on A4 or Letter. No account, no analytics, and no record of what you printed.
Stimpunks.World
The loud one. Queer without fear, divergent and proud. One street where no two rooms look alike — a dancefloor, a dark academia library, a type foundry, a healing checkpoint with a bed nobody is charging you for — and an edge at each end: a campground past the treeline for anybody who would rather not be on a street at all, and a road out of town past the last streetlight for the things that keep late hours and want room around them. Every page has a dial that starts wherever your device asks and lets you turn it up past that. Gentle takes out the motion and never takes out the content.
Every one of them is free to use, free to share, and free to steal for your own classroom, clinic, or kitchen table. That is the point of building them.
Broken systems, not broken people.
