Autistic, but the SJW kind, not the maths. Trans, proud, and unable to control my volume, so louder than the haters. Atari, NES, Basic and DOS, AOL, late GenX old.

Person: Autistic person. 

Sunny Path: Simply accepting that you are clearly Autistic 
Stormy path: Constantly seeking "Proof" that you are Autistic

Autistic humans are taught early that our needs are inconvenient. So we learn to shrink. To mask. To make ourselves easier to be around. But poor boundaries aren’t just about saying yes too often. They’re about abandoning ourselves before anyone else can. Unlearning that isn’t easy.

Autistic people get to change their bodies and identities and have an authoritative voice in our own healthcare too and it drives me mad the persistent infantilising of neurodivergent perspectives and autonomy.

Climate change is more than an economic impact. The physical effects on arthritis, CSF, connective tissue patients and others, through rapid changes in barometric pressures can increase pain, leading to fatigue and irritation.

Where do our rights come from? Believe it or not, the United States has been rolling back our rights for 40 years. The biggest expansion of the peoples' rights in American history actually occurred between 1953 and 1969, during the period of American history known as the "Warren Court." THREAD.

We also need to understand the "overdiagnosis" discourse they are pushing as central to this: a big part of why the right are so opposed to recognising neurodivergent disablement is that they see this as an impediment to ascribing personal responsibility.

Labour seems set on imposing what I've called neoliberalism's privatisation of eugenic responsibility: instead of enforcing mass authoritarian eugenics, the world is made increasingly unlivable; welfare necessary for life is cut; ensuing deaths are then framed as caused by the individual's choices.

The EEOC has launched investigations into 20 Big Law firms for the bs reason of supposedly having DEI. This is clear retaliation for these firms bringing lawsuits against the Trump administration's unconstitutional actions. content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USE...
Press release dated March 17, 2025, from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The release states that Acting Chair Andrea Lucas sent letters to 20 law firms requesting information on their diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) employment practices. The letters express concerns that some DEI-related employment policies may involve unlawful disparate treatment or discrimination based on race, sex, or other protected characteristics, potentially violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Lucas emphasizes the EEOC’s commitment to addressing discrimination, including in elite law firms."

A list of 20 law firms that received letters from Acting Chair Lucas. The firms listed include A & O Shearman, Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, Cooley LLP, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP, Goodwin Procter LLP, Hogan Lovells LLP, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Latham & Watkins LLP, McDermott Will & Emery, Milbank LLP, Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, Morrison & Foerster LLP, Perkins Coie, Reed Smith, Ropes & Gray LLP, Sidley Austin LLP, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, White & Case LLP, and WilmerHale."
