Lived Experience

A person with long, red, curly hair sits cross-legged on a teal couch in a dimly-lit room, covering their face with their hands.
A blurred silhouette of a person with their hand stretched out, gesturing as if to say, "Stop." They appear to be on a balcony, with a hint of blue sky and a city backdrop. On top of the image is a message box with a float cursor. It is a new message, addressed to "Ask Alma." It has a subject line that reads: "I don't believe my friend is autistic."
A desk decorated with numerous small succulents in terracotta and pink planters, with two hands leaning over, clutching a filled coffee cup over an open notebook.
Haley Jakobson, a white queer femme, stands against an ornate tile backdrop while posing with her debut book, "Old Enough."
A child in a teal jacket, standing in a grassy field, presents a bouquet of bright, yellow dandelions.
Two hands holding a black paper heart together.
A person with long red hair and tattooed arms covers their face with their hands.
A photograph of two friends who seem to be blissfully disengaged from thinking about food, centered on a snack held in one hand.
