Stimpunks combines “stimming” + “punks” to evoke open and proud stimming, resistance to neurotypicalization, and the DIY culture of punk, disabled, and neurodivergent communities. Instead of hiding our stims, we bring them to the front.

Genderpunk: a colloquial term for culture and resistance against gendernormativity; an identity that in and of itself is a resistance against gender norms, homophobia and transphobia, oppression and societal status.
You don’t need to be transgender to be part of genderpunk movement. Your genderidentity has nothing to do with your eligibility to be a genderpunk. If you agree with mindset, you can be part of genderpunk movement.

We have seven senses:
- Taste
- Smell
- Touch
- Sight
- Hearing
- Proprioceptive
- Vestibular
We engage those senses with stimming for a few reasons:
- Self-regulation
- Sensory seeking
- Expression
At Stimpunks, we aim to provide sensoryaware jewelry and fidgets that engage all of our senses for all of the reasons above.
while stimming I am able to unravel the everyday ordinary barrage of sensory and social information that becomes overwhelming.
