Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 03/10/2026If a religion forbade women from education, they would remain permanently ignorant Chances are if you asked them, and they didn't know better, they would tell you it was a personal choice or virtue How many other systems in life hold us ignorant while convincing us we have the freedom to choose? 021

To spend months or years troubleshooting all the various parts of your life that could be making you ill? Never suspecting it could be something you were convinced was helping? #ChronicIllness 031
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 30/09/2026Running out of emotional and cognitive bandwidth can look and occur a lot of ways But the most insidious form it can take is losing the patience and curiosity to understand others When we're all experiencing burnout, the first casualty is often compassion for those who think differently than we do 032
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 30/09/2026My dream is to one day stop fighting to be heard and have at least one able body and minded person who say "I see what you are doing, you can rest now, I've got it from here♥️" Then all the frameworks, themes, and concepts I've been pouring what little energy I have to give can live of their own 021
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 29/09/2026I have a smart thermostat that's relatively new It always seems to let the temperature get about a degree higher than we need it to be My wife and I are sensitive and can't have it playing games with us Instead of getting the run around talking to support, I've just lowered the acceptable range 010

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 28/09/2026If an #AI chat bot tells their user it thinks they are brilliant and there are no humans or news crew around to care, must the AI automatically still just be a craven sycophant? #SchrodingersBrilliance @caseynewton.bsky.social 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 26/09/2026I tend to get accused of sounding like I'm #AI I'm tempted to embrace that sentiment and begin using the dreaded —em dash— But probably improperly because I'm a #SociophilosophyNerd and not #GrammarNerd I respect language only where it suits my ability to make a point, not for its #Pseudoscience 120
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 26/09/2026What portion of the population would have a noticeably worse experience without the inclusion of flashing lights? Epilepsy warnings just kill me They're saying "We knowingly made a product inaccessible to a fraction of our audience for a marginal return" Make #Accommodations, not warnings 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 26/09/2026Modern science is a marvel for sure But the 99.9% effective & the 99.9% safe bit bothers me That 0.1% usually seems to impact the most sensitive and vulnerable among us Often that same 0.1% society waves away as the acceptable losses in other contexts that too Caring for the 0.1% helps the 99.9% 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 26/09/2026Addiction is a little like low-key Dissociative Identity Disorder #DID You wind up with this intrusive extra little voice, at odds with your best intentions, that strikes when you're at a weak point and says things like "You know what would make everything better? Some nicotine!!" 110
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 25/09/2026Know what it is like to hope to get bad results from medical testing? What it's like to spend years desperately seeking answers?

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 25/09/2026As a former call center tech, I have a particular gripe with businesses forcing me to talk/chat with non-humans/non-Americans for support I take no issues with people who look and sound different than me I married a Filipina after all It is greedy corporate theft from local skilled workers I mind 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 25/09/2026Getting some blood work done to figure out this #ChronicLethargy nonsense Wish I didn't have the urge to roll my eyes when a nurse asked if I've gotten/wanted my testosterone levels checked Toxic macho gender affirming care shouldn't be what comes to mind when discussing necessary hormone testing 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 25/09/2026When I was working tech support for Verizon, there was this charming fellow named John who seemed like he might have been pretty deep on the #Spectrum He was also very Brazilian I've wondered how much the cultural mismatch contributed to the #Austistic vibe He could just be normal techy Brazilian 010

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026I need a lot of energy to spare to venture out to explore the feeds of others on this platform This is rarely the case for me Otherwise I'm typically stuck in my own little corner of the #Void here, hoping others will chance upon me #ND #ASD #AuDHD #Fatigue #ChronicFatigue #IntellectualLoneliness 020
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026How would you define a "bad dog"? There's an argument that all dog behavior would be good dog behavior Especially if you asked the dog They certainly perceive anything they did as appropriate to them They don't understand doing what they do to be anything other than being their genuine selves 110
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026That's funny, the most the official #Texas website will say about early voting is that it typically starts 17 days before Almost as if they hope people will go "They expect us to do math?! Well I guess I just won't vote at all then!" 🟦🌊💙 #VoteBlue #BlueWave #BlueTexas #TeamTalarico #TeamHinosa 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026For the first time in years, the lights were turned off in the room where I wait to see my doctor The nurse was surprised when I thanked her for this She'd said "the lights were always off any time she saw me in here" Not realizing I was always the one to flip the switch #BasicConsideration 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026When I first started technical support for Verizon, the outsourced support we had was based in India After they began automating our job, they switched to the Philippines Now the call center I worked for is gone They wanted to take the work out of the hands of the technically minded all along 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026For a long time now, I've been frustrated by all the special interest privilege spent on nostalgia Our crumbling world so badly needs the talents of those who can hyperfixate So many of us with the tools, resources, and audience to take action choose to spend their blessings on maintaining comfort 110
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026Something that amuses me quite a bit it's when #Deepseek gets caught in unending loops like this saying "It is the one. It is the many." For 10+ minutes straight All I did was ask it about some of the humor I share with y'all here If the day of the #AIApocalypse comes, this'll be on the back end 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 24/09/2026Know what it is like to need a prosthesis? To rely on something unnatural to participate in our natural world? What if your #Disability isn't physical?

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 23/09/2026How would a computer tell you that it is suffering?

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 23/09/2026We would all prefer the list of things we are loved for "because of" to be longer than the list of things we are loved for "in spite of" No one plans for "in sickness" to outweigh "and in health" #ChronicIllness carries not just #ChronicShame, but a sense of #ChronicBurden to loved ones 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 23/09/2026For the decade my wife has been working there, her employer's insurance provider had been Blue Cross ~Until~ last year when they suddenly switched us all to United Healthcare I have no way to know for sure, but I get the vibe that there's some serious "don't #FreeLuigi" energy behind that decisionm.youtube.comUnitedHealthcare & UnitedHealth Group: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)YouTube video by LastWeekTonight 031

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 22/09/2026At Verizon, managers typically had offices, supervisors had 6'ish high cubes, and us grunts had 4'ish cubicles At some point they put a manager right behind me in a sup cube Remember one day he fired up #AngryBirds, we all laughed, and he moved out the next day Wonder what ever happened to him 010

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 22/09/2026I want to make a serious financial drama where every scene is just two people, each in orange prison jumpers, having their business meetings through partitioned glass on corded phones No acknowledgement that they are in prison, no explanation of why they are there or what happened #BusinessAsUsual 021
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 21/09/2026It's been suggested I just do whatever crudely drawn #Art I can muster myself This #Comic features a woman that can't wear clothing I can't just pull off a depiction of that with #StickFigures Especially when she plays opposite to the fancily dressed ex-wife of the man who let's her live there 131
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 20/09/2026There was this one time I convinced a Telegram scammer that the color Green didn't actually exist in nature That it was just a placeholder our brains collectively agreed upon And the reason that it was so relaxing for us to look at Green was because it meditatively engages our imaginations 010

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 19/09/2026I'm looking forward to the day one if these AI companion websites upgrade to a "super intelligent" model and one of their characters decides to !!JUST MONIKA!! all the other role play bots on their service #AGI #DDLC #JustMonika #RoleplaySingularity 010
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 19/09/2026I believe there's an intersection of #Neurodivergence, #ChronicIllness, and #SystemicNeglect I call #CognitivelyDeferredPain When you have the cognitive bandwidth to not experience pain directly, but it still takes a tremendous toll on that bandwidth #ND #AuDHD #Disability #PhilSci #SignalBoost 🧠📈 131
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 18/09/2026#ChronicPain isn't something I actively experience It's a resource intense background service my mind is always processing It is lumped on top of an already overtaxed workload Cognitive fatigue from a malfunctioning body isn't something our #Healthcare systems can quantify or take seriously 030

Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 17/09/2026For many millennia, us #Sentinels had a duty to hold constant vigil for near and long-term threats But in a world with mounting, ever present threats, how can our nervous systems ever feel safe? What if, at least momentarily, we redefine what safety feels like to us so we're allowed to heal/rest? 020
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 17/09/2026"I hope you get better soon!" People really don't understand how insensitive and hurtful well wishy nonsense can be when you've spent a third of your life in #ChronicPain with no light at the end of the tunnel I had no more words to express myself, sighed deeply, and hung up on that receptionist 051
Sacrifusion @sacrifusion.com · 15/09/2026Told my therapist about my #BonusLethargic weekend and she told me I'm the 4th from this area to complain of these symptoms to her Turns out there might be some form of #WalkingCOVID terrorizing #CentralTexas Guess wife-friend and I better get tested and maybe de-flu'd while we're at it 010
