Tom Holland just did something most celebrities don’t—he got real about having ADHD and dyslexia.

In his new LEGO short film, he plays a series of chaotic, creative roles while championing the power of play.

But offscreen, he shared something even more powerful: how neurodivergence has shaped the way he approaches characters—and life.

For millions of young people with ADHD or dyslexia, blank canvases don’t feel exciting. They feel overwhelming. And in a world obsessed with perfection, being different often means being misunderstood.

When someone with a platform like Tom’s talks about neurodivergent creativity—about ditching the rulebook, building with your hands, or just letting your mind wander—it creates space. Space for better representation. Space for pride instead of shame.

Because being neurodivergent isn’t a flaw. It’s a different way of seeing. And building. And being.

Earlier this year, a PIL was filed demanding American Sign Language (ASL) be made mandatory in Indian schools for Deaf students, claiming it would boost global job prospects.

But Deaf communities across India pushed back, arguing that forcing ASL in classrooms could erase Indian Sign Language (ISL)—a language deeply tied to their identity, culture, and access to education.

Now, the World Federation of the Deaf (WFD)—a global rights body—has officially sided with Indian organisations, urging India to protect Indian Sign Language as a matter of human rights and linguistic justice.

They’ve reminded the court that under the UNCRPD, every Deaf child has the right to be educated in their national sign language.

This isn’t about choosing one language over another. It’s about safeguarding inclusion, identity, and the right to be heard—in your own language.

‼️Attention parents and schools: CBSE is rolling out a dedicated registration process for students with disabilities.‼️

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that registration for Children With Special Needs (CWSN) students appearing for the Class 10 & 12 Board Exams 2026 will begin on September 9, 2025.

📌 A dedicated CWSN web portal has been launched to make sure students with disabilities can easily access exam facilities and exemptions.

📌 Registration will be open from September 9 to September 22, 2025 (till 11:59 pm).

📌 Schools must log in through the Pariksha Sangam portal and register eligible CWSN students by uploading required documents.

📌 Once facilities are chosen, they will automatically appear on the student’s admit card, ensuring exam centres make the right arrangements.

The board has also released a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) to guide schools. Timely registration is crucial so that every child with a disability gets the support they are entitled to during exams—whether it’s scribes, extra time, or other accommodations.

👉 Schools, don’t delay—complete the process before the deadline to ensure smooth and inclusive board exams for all CWSN students.

Everyone’s celebrating GST 2.0.

Insurance is GST-free. Medicines are cheaper. Toothpaste and paneer got a rate cut.

But what about the disabled kid who still has to pay 18% GST on her wheelchair?

Or the caregiver paying out-of-pocket for hearing aids, screen readers, and rehab — because none of it is covered or affordable?

Assistive devices didn’t even get a mention.

And insurance? Most disabled people still get denied, overcharged, or buried under paperwork because of “pre-existing” conditions.

This reform is being sold as a big win for the common man. But if you’re disabled in India, you’re still not treated as part of that “common.”

You’re still fighting to be seen as essential.

We talk about “inclusive growth,” but the systems meant to protect us keep making survival more expensive.

GST got simpler. But for millions of disabled people, it’s still not fair.

22 years ago, walked into our homes as Jasmeet Walia aka Jassi — and redefined what it meant to be a leading lady in Indian television.

At a time when Indian TV was full of larger-than-life characters and high-glam sets, Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin reminded us that there was space for soft-spoken ambition, for confidence, for characters who looked and dressed like us—and still commanded the screen.

This wasn’t about being better than the rest. It was about broadening the definition of beauty, of femininity, of strength.

Jassi didn’t need to be “transformed” to be lovable. She already was.

From being the girl next door in oversized salwars to starring in powerful OTT roles two decades later, Mona Singh has consistently chosen roles with heart and honesty. She reminds us that there are many ways to be a heroine—and all of them are valid.

Here’s to 22 years of challenging the frame. Of choosing substance and style. Of showing us that the most unforgettable characters are the ones who stay true to themselves.

💜 If Jassi made you feel seen—this one’s for you.

Punjab is flooding. 1,400+ villages submerged. 30+ lives lost. But what the headlines won’t tell you is how ordinary people—farmers, elders, volunteers—are stepping up to save lives while systems fail.

This isn’t just a natural disaster. It’s what happens when decades of poor planning, unclean drains, deforestation, illegal construction on floodplains, and climate inaction meet extreme rainfall.

Amid the devastation, people are still showing up.

An elderly man saved a stray dog from drowning.

Langars are feeding thousands across relief camps.

Celebs like Diljit Dosanjh and Ammy Virk are adopting villages and families.

Health workers are treating thousands at flood medical camps.

Floods in Punjab have affected over 3.5 lakh people, submerged over 148,000 hectares of farmland, and left thousands without homes. But even in crisis, Punjab’s spirit is unshaken.

🆘 Helplines and donation links on the last slide.

India’s schoolbooks are failing millions of students — by pretending gender diversity doesn’t exist.

But a Class 12 student just took the fight to the Supreme Court, asking for trans-inclusive s*xuality education to be made a mandatory part of school textbooks.

The petition urges NCERT and SCERTs to stop erasing trans identities and start teaching age-appropriate, examinable content on gender identity, s*x vs gender, and q***r rights.

As of now, most states have no structured content on gender diversity. This lack of representation doesn’t just invisibilize trans and nonbinary students — it fuels stigma, ignorance, and violence.

The Supreme Court has now issued notices to the Centre and six states to respond within 8 weeks. This moment could reshape what Indian kids grow up learning about identity, respect, and equality.

Because inclusive education isn’t optional — it’s a right.

And change often starts with a question: why wasn’t I taught this in school?

👉🏽 Share this. Talk about it. Demand better.

What if red and green just looked… the same? 🤔😳

For many colour-blind students, this isn’t a hypothetical. It’s their everyday reality — in labs, art class, maps, graphs, even traffic lights.

17-year-old Aahan Prajapati knows this struggle firsthand.

Diagnosed with red-green colour blindness in Class 4, he often felt lost during science experiments or while decoding diagrams. But instead of staying stuck, he built a 99.7% accurate AI tool to help colour-blind students see learning materials better.

From testing 10,000+ kids to creating bilingual guides and inclusive stationery, Aahan’s journey proves what one student + the right support system can achieve.

But let’s be real:
👉 Most students with colour vision deficiency don’t even know they have it.

👉 Many struggle silently, mislabelled as “slow” or “careless.”

👉 Job dreams in aviation, defence, or railways? Crushed, without explanation.

What can schools & colleges do?

✅ Include colour vision screening in school health check-ups

✅ Use colour-accessible learning material (high contrast, patterns, labels)

✅ Train teachers to recognise signs & adapt teaching

✅ Offer assistive tools and image-enhancing tech

✅ Advocate for inclusive curriculum design

Tag a teacher, educator, policymaker — or friend — who needs to hear this.

Let’s make classrooms more accessible.

When Jungkook said “I have ADHD” mid-livestream… I don’t think he realized how many of us felt that deep in our bones.

In a world where neurodivergent people are constantly policed for how they move, talk, and are, Jungkook’s honesty felt like a quiet rebellion.

He didn’t apologize. He didn’t explain himself to make anyone comfortable.

For so many neurodivergent fans it was healing to witness that moment.

Neurodivergent people are so used to hiding, masking, shrinking ourselves. And here’s this global superstar just being—unfiltered, fidgety, fully himself.

It was a reminder that ADHD isn’t something to fix. It’s something to understand.

Thank you, , for making it normal.

Whether you’re part of ARMY, neurodivergent, or just someone trying to understand better — we hope this post made you pause and reflect.

Have you ever been told to “stop moving so much”?

Let’s talk. Let’s unlearn. Let’s be kinder. 💜

Marlee Matlin didn’t just “make it” as a Deaf actor—she kicked open doors that weren’t even built for her.
She won an Oscar at 21. She pushed for closed captions before anyone cared. She made sure Deaf stories weren’t just background noise.

And she’s still here—fighting for access, repping the Deaf community, and showing the world that disabled people deserve equal opportunities. Her enduring impact echoes through her award‑winning performances on screen, on Broadway, and in landmark moments of Deaf culture recognition.

📣 This is what real representation looks like.
