It's horrifying and and grotesque that so many people (scientists! Doctors!) for so long claimed (and some still do!) that autistic people don't feel empathy. What a monstrous and harmful lie.

for disability pride month I would like to remind everyone that disability includes people with severe, "ugly" disabilities that are often left out of disability conversations. people w/ schizophrenia, BP1, BPD, DID, and other severe mental illnesses still deserve respect

A lot of autistic people exist in a world where people make it clear that we did something wrong, but hardly ever explain what went wrong. After enough of this, confusion, anxiety, and self-doubt become near-constant companions in social situations

As a longtime NYT subscriber who is completely open to and supportive of the idea of Biden dropping out I find this article breathtakingly irresponsible. I cannot believe it was published.

I think the worst thing about having bad knees and hips isn’t the chronic pain or even the flair up pain, but having to deal with old, abled people going “sore knees!?! wait until you my age!”

My thoughts are that my spiritual tradition is Black southern hoodoo influenced by voodoo, Ifa & ancient Kemet, so the New England witch type is not my witch type, but how a Black woman would navigate those more white spiritual spaces is really interesting to me.

The thing about Black folks as a people is that we understand how to keep joy in our hearts during hard times. You see the Palestinian people doing that too during their genocide. White American culture seems to lack this capacity severely compared to us.

There should no outrage about what the NYT publishes anymore. They're established as hella ethically shady & constantly purveying white supremacist capitalism. They also remain one our nation's most important papers of record & still do some things well. But quit being exasperated about them.

My job as a deeply struggling person in life culturally endowed to handle extremities of fascism that people who aren’t Black know almost nothing of what it’s like to bear is not to coddle & say, there, there, to those hopeless about the world. It’s merely to share why that’s not my choice.

If you steal $1000, you can be sent to prison. When health insurance companies steal $50,000,000,000, they get tax breaks, subsidies and government contracts, while the people they steal from die or go into debt. But keep blaming immigrants and poor people for rising crime.

Out of the hospital. It's not pneumonia. It's something worse, and they can't help me. They recommended I seek pulmonary specialists across the state, because they've never seen anything like what I have. My lungs are full of bleeding lesions, some with holes. I need a health potion and a miracle.

It’s important to understand that we’re subject to indoctrination & propaganda from our government. We receive an extensive training to hold America’s alleged values dear in our upbringing. Until you investigate them, much of what you think of America is what the government wants you to think.

Before today’s Twins game there was a moment of silence for Vikes rookie Khyree Jackson, killed in a car crash overnight. The “moment” lasted maybe 5 seconds. I’ve seen those go a full minute at Premier League matches on TV. It’d serve Americans well to STFU, just for a minute.

Software development is in crisis: it is failing harder and harder and creating usable software that does productive things; more and more it can no longer even recognize usability as its primary goal. This is separate from the accessibility crisis, but has the same cause: tech's anti-human bias.

8 years ago today Philando Castile was murdered. The criminal legal system failed to convict the cop who shot him despite the recorded evidence. We had to watch that video live just 24 hours after we watched cops shoot Alton Sterling in the back. (The video does not play at link)

You always need to be at the ready to disavow an abuser. How much you used to like a person before you knew he dated his nanny in her twenties as a rich old man & published an unethical volume on sexual assault doesn't matter at all once that comes out.

This is particularly important to understand because Trumpist authoritarianism is the descendent of Jim Crow far more than say Hitler or Pinochet or Orban, and it's going to look a lot more like 1930s Mississippi than 1930s Berlin.

Also white people, you do not need to take upon yourselves to correct Black people online. That's something y'all ain't gotta do. If we're wrong, it's cool. We're usually way more accurate than y'all however. A white person stepping in to correct a Black one is in all cases a racist microagression.
