I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Last year I told everyone they should gift food for the holidays. This year it’s the same. Feed each other. Clothe each other. Blanket each other. People sometimes need help but are afraid to ask for it.

People aren’t faking their disabilities, they’re faking being well. We know society hates us. We know we will be judged for using assistive devices. Many of us take years to get the courage to lean in to accommodations. Stop judging. Help us build a more inclusive world.

Black text on white page that reads:

In 1882, 10,000 workers marched up Broadway in the first-ever Labor Day parade. Led by democratic socialists and organized by New York’s unions, they rallied the movement that went on to win us weekends, safety standards, overtime pay, a minimum wage, and social security.

None of those victories were guaranteed. And none are permanent.

We created the first-in-the-nation Office of Worker Power to put the full weight of City Hall behind the people who keep New York running. On Labor Day, we honor the workers who came before us by fighting for the workers who come next.

Happy Labor Day, New York. The future of worker power is ours to build. Learn more at nyc.gov/workerpower.

Sometimes progress in Autistic Burnout looks fucking boring. Cancelling something. Eating the easy food. Doing half the laundry. Going to bed. Not answering the message. Stopping before you’re completely destroyed. Our society doesn’t celebrate these things. Your nervous system will though.

I went looking for old anti-vaccine propaganda and expected an interesting historical curiosity. Instead I found arguments from 1802, 1885 and 1920 that would barely need rewriting to circulate online today. That raises a rather disconcerting question.

I don't think people quite understand chronic illness, what it's like to "wake up tired" but still have a million things to do. Deciding where to invest your energy as you're operating on 20% of what everyone else has. Even the most basic stuff like washing yourself or making a meal is draining.

Food prices didn't skyrocket by accident. A handful of massive corporations have spent decades buying up competitors, squeezing farmers, and leaving small businesses with fewer choices. It's time to take on these corrupt bigshots and build a food system that works for all of us.

Just a reminder, the company you work for does not care about you. You could drop dead today while working and they will replace you in a short amount of time. I say this only because we collectively need to stop giving these companies all of our energy even when we’re off the clock.

Everybody talks about how nothing is affordable anymore but no one talks about how poorly made and disposable things are. Part of the affordability crisis is because we keep repurchasing things, cars, appliances, clothes etc because things don’t last.

Octavia E. Butler, 1998:
From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING

Choose your leaders

with wisdom and forethought.

To be led by a coward

is to be controlled

by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool


is to be led

by the opportunists

who control the fool.

To be led by a thief

is to offer up

your most precious treasures

to be stolen.
To be led by a liar


is to ask

to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant

is to sell yourself

and those you love

into slavery.

Brutal.
A WHOLE CIVILIZATION
WILL DIE TONIGHT
My son needs lunch, and I have to put his backpack together, but a whole civilization will die tonight, so I'm wondering if they've closed their schools.
Like, a snow day, maybe, except instead of snow it's
"keep your children home so if you die, you die together" — instead of "well open back up once the plows have cleared" it's
"we don't know if we'll be here tomorrow, hold your babies tight."
It's just "talk" I'm told, which I've been told before.
"It's how the president makes his deals." But I've never heard anyone talk about other human beings this way, and I'm not certain I can look my son in the eyes if we all agree to stomach it one more time.
A civilization will die tonight, but as I zip up his backpack and kiss him off to school I think: if this is what we call leadership then I'm not entirely sure ours isn't already dead.
