# Communications
|
||
|
||
This page contains documentation on how to communicate with people in the neurodiversity and the wider disability communities in mind and also on gender neutral communication.
|
||
|
||
Suggestions and feedback to improve this content are welcome and encouraged.
|
||
Note that these docs might be not applicable to your case if you’re considering writing your own
|
||
personal user manual and I don’t speak for anyone else.
|
||
|
||
## TL;DR
|
||
|
||
> Some of them were copied from <https://t.me/ajhalili2006_bio/4> in part for when sliding into DMs.
|
||
|
||
1. [Don’t be a dick](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-author-speaks/201909/don-t-be-dick) (aka violent, discriminatory, disrespectful or even disturbing in any way).[^1]
|
||
2. Respect my preferred pronouns and avoid PFL (person-first language) in most cases.
|
||
3. Don’t @ me during downtime, sleep and day-offs. In case of emergencies, call me over my personal phone number that I provided or through provided contact methods.
|
||
For sensitive manners (like reporting security related issues), use Keybase, Session or Matrix (make sure to enable EE2E when initiating an one-to-one chat with me). If you want to connect through Session, I’ll provide my public ID when needed.
|
||
4. No crypto nonsense (even I use mirror.xyz and some other dapps), self promo hellscape, doxxing, death/swatting threats or calls to violence towards me or anybody.
|
||
5. Don’t dare even send me NSFW/CACP.
|
||
6. Future employers and recruiters: Please contact via email or LinkedIn only.
|
||
7. I WILL NOT RESPOND FROM ANYBODY ON FACEBOOK MESSENGER. This applies to both my main and alternative personal profiles,
|
||
unless you're either know me IRL or for official business at school and work and your org policies does only allow
|
||
communications on Facebook Messenger/WhatsApp.

||
## Pronouns and Language
|
||
|
||
My pronouns is `he/they` (technically `he/him/they/them` for long version), although `they/them` is much preferred even if I chose to be identified to my gender at birth.
|
||
|
||
In terms of discussing about things relating to neurodiversity and disability, I prefer identity first, especially when discussing about my disability and things like neurodiversity,
|
||
since I mostly frame ableism and other issues related to these under both social and human rights models of disability.
|
||
You might check the [note on disabled and disability](https://www.thesaurus.com/e/writing/person-first-vs-identity-first-language/#note-on-disabled-and-disability) at thesaurus.com,
|
||
especially when discussing accessibility across the community. I don’t usually gatekeep language relating to disability, although I might do when discrimination and bullying happens or when clarification is needed.
|
||
|
||
## Availability
|
||
|
||
When considering doing a synchronous meeting (or even doing a personal call with me),
|
||
consider both my schedule, workload and the timezone (currently in Philippine Standard Time/`UTC+8`).
|
||
In most days, I’ll be unavailable for contact from 21:00 to 09:30 the next day, although [this could change](#office-hours).
|
||
I’m also unavailable on weekends and official holidays (both local within the city of Marilao and the
|
||
province of Bulacan and national), so expect additional delays on replies if it’s a long weekend.
|
||
|
||
## Communicating at work
|
||
|
||
Generally, I’m not a fan of sync meetings, especially if iot is scheduled outside of my office hours in PH Standard Time.
|
||
|
||
