I, Brigid, would like to hereby apologize for quite accidentally blocking "a friend" on Facebook (they know who they are). To add, I really can't stand tiny phone screens and tiny touch keyboards that barely work right. I STILL LUV YOU

hands up: who else shares "exclusive nicknames" between you and/or fam/friends/partner(s)? i.e. mutually established, and that only you can call them and/or only they can call you?

Newsflash; having rules & regulations on an online community against the use of targeted hate speech is *NOT* fascism. Disguising authoritarianism as "established law and order" in order to perpetuate and permit unrestrained targeted hate speech and hate crimes with no consequences *is* fascism.

My angle on AI. Does AI have bad uses? YES! Does AI have good uses? Yes, that too. Do I think AI should be used for art?: NO! Rest assured, I agree with on *that* point*. But, it *can* be used for other globally helpful things as augments, but NOT as replacements. Machines are *tools*, not people.

I've said it many times before, and I'll gladly say it again: Human Rights are NOT POLITICAL ISSUES. And #TransRightsAreHumanRights . And if you are not actively and proactively a part the solution, including being neutral/silent, you are by default part of the problem, and my enemy. Period.

SEVERE CW/TW: Violence and murder of transgender person. Fact check for validity confirmed. Normally, I try to be positive in my posts, but as a trans person myself, I'd be betraying this person's memory if I didn't post this. #TransRightsAreHumanRights To all 2SLGBTQIA+ folk out there, plz be safe

DEI is not just about race. Yes, race is a VERY IMPORTANT aspect of it. But remember, that the marginalised ultimately, unavoidably, inevitably INTERSECT. Race/ethnicity, faith (or not), nationality, gender, sexuality/romanticity/fidelity, ability, languages, etc. That is DEI. All of it. And more.

Another new confession/coming out from me - one of more *recent* development. I'm coming out that I've recently taken an interest, and identification, with puppy-play, and its relevant headspace. *BEFORE* you judge, make sure you have accurate info, as harmful stereotypes of it *do* perpetuate.

On Kick, playing The Crew: Motorfest. 18+ (background music lyrics may contain some sensitive language, and the game sounds bland without music. Just know that I don't condone that language, and I'm just playing the game to play the game).

I've often told folks, I'm both scientifically minded, and spiritual (not religious). Spirituality to me is for the self. I.e. superheroes when we're kids; we think they're real, then find out, not so. Real or not, however, they often inspire us; they don't have to be real to do that.

Try this sometime (it's fun) when encountering a supposedly know-it-all conspiracy theorist. Tell them you just drank a big glass of dihydrogen monoxide, and breathed in a whole bunch of dinitrogen dioxide, and watch their reaction. (Psst. It's just non-salinated water, and dry air).

So, geometry is a thing for which I heavily enthuse. But here's a thought; without context, the word primitives can sound questionable. However, this is only because they would need an understanding enough of geometry to know that in such primitives only means "the most fundamental polyhedra".

Happy Winter Solstice. Longest night of the year. Look on the *"bright"* side, though, because now, the days will start to get longer for the next half year. (Get it? *Bright* side?)

Did you know?: The name of the "Jem'Hadar" species in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is based off a real life rank, "Jemadar" - the lowest rank of commissioned infantry officer - used during the British Raj in India between 1858 and 1947?

another by-the-way moment (CW: neuroableist transphobia/homophobia): #ActuallyAutistic 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals are not "just confused due to being Autistic". Being Autistic has nothing to do with being 2SLGBTQIA+, or vice-versa. And even if it did, SO WHAT?! It's still a Non-Issue. As it should be.

Remember: - Captain America was created around the concept of fighting Hitler and the Nazis. - Joker had an actual mental illness; with proper help, they probably wouldn't have been so chaotic. - Spiderman's origin story teaches about the consequences of apathy. - Superman was created by a Canadian.

Clarification: I'm well aware that not all Autistic individuals have the opportunity or privilege of professional diagnosis. What I dislike is when people who know that they are not actually Autistic, use Autistic as a general catch-all adjective for weird/strange. There *is* a difference.

In regards to the occurence of the shooting of the UnitedHealthcare CEO, let me state this for the record, I do *NOT* condone arbitrary violence. But I *also* do not condone corporate greed blatantly causing the death-by-effect of countless individuals. And that *is* the point being made here.

CW Again: This "Oh yeah, one more thing" moment brought to you by an #ActuallyAutistic person. Oh, yeah, one more thing. Vaccines don't cause people to become/be born Autistic! And even if they *did*, SO WHAT! Would you rather you or your kid be Autistic, or dead? Acceptance, not treatments/cures.

TRIGGER WARNING!: neuroableism. abuse. If you support/believe in "Advanced Behaviour Analysis" (ABA) as a form of "medical treatment" for Autistic people, I implore you, reconsider. As an #ActuallyAutistic person, I tell you, ABA is a form of abuse. Autistic people need acceptance, not treatment.

#ActuallyAutistic Discussion: How do you feel about Autistic characters in stories played by *non*-Autistic actors? As an Autistic person, I do *not* like it; I feel only Autistic people can truly understand Autistic life, and that such only fue;s and perpetuate the problems Autistic people face.

So, continuing along: Topic: Aside from Autistic and Trans folk both being discriminated against, in addition, Autistic traits are still very highly pathologised. Nevermind the generalisations/stereotypes. Also, sometimes my own being trans overshadows my being Autistic, or vice-versa. Thoughts?

Well, here we are. (Remember, no matter where you go, there you are). Yup. Hello, Bluesky. I'm Brigid. #ActuallyAutistic Transfemme, born 1983, from Canada. Heard about Bluesky, and liked the idea, thought I'd give it a try. Other info in my profile; otherwise, A.M.A. (within reason of course).
