Act NOW to stop the worst Medicaid cuts in history - Autistic Self Advocacy Network
The Senate just voted in favor of the worst Medicaid cuts ever.  If this bill becomes law, at least 17 million people will have their health care taken away. This is deeply disappointing, but it is…

Call and email your House reps today, especially if your rep is GOP. The Bill hasn’t passed the House yet. Keep the pressure on.

Marches don’t do much unless they’re used as springboards for organizing. Bring a table. Bring sign-up sheets for mailing lists. Network. Plan next steps.

to recap: — Trump was *for* the TikTok ban — which the GOP Congress passed — and the GOP Supreme Court upheld — and even though Biden said he wouldn't enforce the ban, TikTok shut down anyway — so that Trump could "save" it — and the media fell for it we really do live in the dumbest fucking country

Before people start kissing Trump’s ass for “fighting to bring back TikTok,” let’s not forget that banning TikTok was his fucking idea in the first place and he was the one who started the process of getting it banned.

Advice for my friends joining this platform: block every account that annoys you, the first time it annoys you. Don’t feed the trolls. Give them no oxygen whatsoever. Starve them of attention. Protect your mental wellbeing.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Anytime someone rants about the horror of “Abrahamic religions” as if they’re all the same, or utters the nonsense words “Judeo-Christian values,” I want them to think back to this mailing my family’s synagogue sent out.

Tonight, after a lengthy evaluation period, I was diagnosed as autistic. This is not a surprise. Still, a lot of anger I’ve long harbored toward my childhood self, especially, has dissipated and been replaced with sorrow over things I experienced. This is a positive change.
