neurodiversity is an existential threat to the establishment because it is a frame where all human minds are considered to be human minds rather than one where only those who are willing and able to pretend to be 'rational actors' get to count as people

the argument must be confined to the hypothetical realm of generic platonic ideals because the only people who are willing to inhabit that realm are those who already agree with the argument

The university may be making itself irrelevant, but knowledge has always been cultivated outside it. Knowledge cultivation will continue... with or without the university.

'everybody' and 'nobody' as synonyms for 'the in group' and 'the out group' is something I can't stop seeing now that I've noticed it I feel like I agree with nobody a lot more than I agree with everybody

Heya folks. We're on a final push to get to £10k. We're on just over £8.3k. That's less than 1/10th of what fascist Danny Tommo has recently received inndonations after slashing a dinghy with an RNLI worker on it at sea. Meanwhile our comrade faces more than 12x the jailtime for opposing fascism.

On the eve of Black History Month, my #newblogpost reflects on the limits of institutional "celebration" in UK higher education. What would it mean to move towards genuine belonging, community, & transformation? What would it mean to refuse the current format of BHM? folukeafrica.com/apathetic-ce...

the root belief of ‘gender critical’ is ‘sex is binary and immutable’. if *any* biology is immutable then evolution could not have occurred. the american religious right have columnists like @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social arguing for creationism without them even knowing that’s what they’re doing.

When you’re chronically ill, you can do everything “right” and still experience setbacks. You can “try harder” and still decline. You can do all the wellness cures, doctor’s appointments and hoop jumping and still suffer. That’s the reality of being disabled.

7 panel comic.

Panel 1:
A Red Guy with AI across his chest looks like he’s about to run away. A Yellow Guy stands next to him. Red Guy says “I’m the future, buddy. You comin’?”
Yellow Guy replies “Nah”

Panel 2: 
Red Guy is almost out of the panel. He leans in and says “Enjoy getting left behind, pal”
Yellow Guy replies “ok”

Panel 3:
Yellow Guy stands alone.

Panel 4: 
Close up on Yellow Guy, there is a quiet “huff-huff-huff” noise coming from behind him

Panel 5:
Yellow Guy turns to look behind him

Panel 6: 
Close up on Yellow Guy’s face as if from the point of view of an attacker.
Yellow Guy yells “Jesus Christ”

Panel 7:
AI Red Guy is now chasing the Yellow Guy. 
Red Guy: “Use me”
Yellow Guy “No”
Red Guy “USE ME”

reading the novel of Starship Troopers was the first time I really realised that some people still subscribed to authoritarian values and saw them as entirely normal (I'd been taught that 'everyone' had realised that they were wrong after ww2 and started supporting universal human rights instead)

Trans rights is inherently a bodily autonomy issue. Just like abortion rights is. We can't have gender equity or reproductive freedom without trans rights. Full stop. You can yell at me and make up shit that you claim I've said if it makes you feel better. I don't care. I'm right. And you know it.

liberals want a status quo that awards uncritical thinking, that streamlines existence to be simple and uncomplicated and comfortable in that sense, there is no room for people who are truly fighting for their rights, who truly want liberation and so? they act accordingly.
