This video is spectacular. They're like Broad City mixed with Sesame Street, and I've never felt so seen by a puppet before. Highly reccomend this to anyone who struggles with anxiety or knows someone who does. #anxiety

Kennedy, who has no medical or science degree, has voiced skepticism about major vaccines for years. He has also endorsed fringe conspiracy theories, and backed those views again in his confirmation hearings last month. 🙃⤵️

🧵"So this is how liberty dies..." Trump’s first 3 weeks have been a relentless flood of actions. It's incredibly hard to keep up. I’ve gone through 69 actions & mapped out the pattern - showing how they fall within 5 broad domains consistent with authoritarian states 1/9

This is a venn diagram showing how 69 Trump actions map onto domains covering: undermining democratic institutions; suppressing dissent and media; dismantling social protections; attacking science and education; destabilising the global order.

Last year I made this video explaining overstimulation with noises as I try and understand my recent Autism diagnosis in my 50's. If you think this may help someone... please feel free to share. youtu.be/_C2QJPjS2a0?...

Watched Charlie Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" for the first time today. It came out in 1940 but this speech still feels very relevant today

I just rewatched Dr. Strangelove last week. If you haven't seen it, please do. It shows an excellent hypothetical of how individuals can use loopholes to manipulate the entire country down a path to destruction. Absolutely gut wrenching to see Musk give that salute. Just like Dr. Strangelove.

"bypassing traditional milestones" is a funny way of saying that most of us can't afford to buy a house with multiple jobs, won't have children because we can't afford them, most of our degrees are useless, and we are the poorest generation among all current living generations

I made a ton of popular autism memes on Twitter, so I should port them over here. I'll probably remove the ones I thought were crap though. Common autistic experience here.

The distracted boyfriend meme. The man, labeled "Allistics," is looking at a woman in a red dress labeled, "Erroneous subtext." His girlfriend is annoyed and labeled, "Autistic statement at face value."

So Allistics are looking excitedly at Erroneous Subtext while the Autistic Statement At Face Value is right there, and very annoyed.

Stop calling it AI "art". You enter search queries into a hallucinating computer until you get stolen components rearranged into something you deemed close enough to your vision. What you are doing isn't artistic expression, it's data entry trial and error yielding emotionless crap.

I hate what AI has done to the art world. Having to carefully check every piece for AI jank is exhausting, but I won't waste my time trying to find the emotional intent behind a piece when it was churned out by a computer comparing stolen words to stolen images. Art has meaning because of the artist
