My take after this last week: America continues to get lost fighting about ideology in order to avoid any acknowledgement of its unhealthy relationship with firearms And just to be clear, I'm firmly a leftist, but other leftists are not responsible for my actions

people love bringing up japan when it comes to deporting immigrants/ creating a homogenous society, but if you bring up japan's anti-gun laws it's "woah woah woah"

I hope your community is never occupied like LA or DC. But if it is, you’ll quickly find that people don’t take kindly to having their city under federal control. And folks are just getting started. 📌 Protesters gathered near a checkpoint in the U Street corridor in Northwest Washington.

It's almost like giving important jobs only to people you know is a bad idea But nobody expected a failed businessman to be an effective leader. He's governing exactly the way he was elected to govern; dismantle as much as he can, as fast as he can

Fascism is here. We are not “getting closer” or “in danger of.” This matters because it frames our discussion: We aren’t trying to prevent it, we’re trying to defeat it. It’s not taking over our institutions, it’s taken them over. Otherwise, we’re always behind, fighting a past we’ve already lost.

When I feel I'm not doing enough I remind myself that by taking care of my child, by supporting him in the ways he needs support rather than let society dictate what his needs should (or shouldn't) be, I am doing some small part to make the world a safer place, with a bigger tent for people like him

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down operations after loss of federal funding:

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) announced today that it will begin an orderly wind-down of its operations following the passage of a federal rescissions package and the release of the Senate Appropriations Committee’s FY 2026 Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies (Labor-H) appropriations bill, which excludes funding for CPB for the first time in more than five decades.

For nearly 60 years, CPB has carried out its Congressional mission to build and sustain a trusted public media system that informs, educates, and serves communities across the country. Through partnerships with local stations and producers, CPB has supported educational content, locally relevant journalism, emergency communications, cultural programming, and essential services for Americans in every community.

“Despite the extraordinary efforts of millions of Americans who called, wrote, and petitioned Congress to preserve federal funding for CPB, we now face the difficult reality of closing our operations,” said CPB President and CEO Patricia Harrison. “CPB remains committed to fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities and supporting our partners through this transition with transparency and care.”

Plan in sight for the future, both the ultimate goal and the smaller steps I need to achieve to put myself in the right place to meet the big goal. As an autistic person who often oscilates between living only within the big dream or just getting one day to the next, this is significant progress 💖♾️🎉

My autistic child is, and always will be, the best part of my life. He keeps me fighting for the future, and every good thing I have in my life, every positive trait about me, is a direct result of me adjusting to meet him where he is. He keeps me sane in a world gone mad 💖

“All who value human diversity and the continued expansion of the rights of people with disabilities must push back against eugenics politics” especially now that ableist ghoul Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s comments “remind us that eugenic ideas are alive and well.” theconversation.com/uninformed-c...

theconversation.com

Uninformed comments on autism are resonant of dangerous ideas about eugenics

Part of a eugenic logic is the ongoing belief that erasing disability and people with disabilities is a desirable and commonsense objective.

Neurodivergent people can also be ableist There is no demographic that makes it impossible for you to be an ableist, or an asshole If someone tells you your comment/post/etc is abelist, be a big enough person to check yourself rather than use your neurodivergence as an excuse to dig your heels in

“Just leave the country/state” is not an option for most disabled people. Relocating takes a significant amount of time, money, resources and health that many of us do not have. Many countries won’t accept those who are disabled and/or poor. Leaving is a privilege. Fight for those who can’t flee
