Hi Bluesky! Been a little while, I had a big autistic meltdown and took a week away from everything to recover. How are we all doing today? Hope you have a calm day šŸŒ±

Itā€™s Disability Pride Month and people are still using ableist language to describe people and things they donā€™t like. With zero internal examination about why they equate intellectual disability with being bad. šŸ¤—

Most *white* Americans. There is no country on earth that imprisons more of its population than the US. Prisoners disproportionately Black. The US leads the world in child executions. Not a typo. Disproportionately Black. Life expectancy for US Black folk lower than for Uighur Chinese. Not a typo

my autism is extremely tailored to film/tv so I can predict the end 90% of the time, see minute visual inconsistencies, hear the adr. and also struggle to suspend my disbelief a lot I am NOT fun to watch things with. But I feel very smart, alone in my room with nothing but the tv for lightā€¦ šŸ¤£

Iā€™ve been playing a mode of Guild Wars 2 that is full of men doing very serious battlefield fighting with a lot of try harding. Call world vs world. Think big 50 v 50 fights. Last week the game released a long awaited bikini outfit. So I decided to take the game mode very seriously.

Also, I was writing my reply before everyone else, it just took me a while to press send, didnā€™t intend to join in what might be perceived as a pike on. Especially if we all missed your joking tone.

My sincerest apology if it is as you say, and you were positioning this as a joke. But it very much appeared to be ā€œblack people hating on white people, thatā€™s all they do, it is badā€

The leg washing tweet celebrated its 5th anniversary in May, its old news. I too think of it often in the shower as I am washing my legs, because it was a funny moment in time. Iā€™m not angrily scrubbing my legs and feeling hated. It wasnā€™t that deep then, isnā€™t now.

The fact these are your takeaways and focus in this thread does suggest youā€™re focused on the wrong things, leading to hateful vibes. how does this post add to the conversation and not just demonstrate pervasive ignorant whiteness?

I'm always amused when White people are incredulous that Black folks are having conversations on social media which they haven't observed. We've been having conversations *in the same room as you* unbeknownst to White observers for as long as Whiteness has existed. It's practically a cultural value.

If podcasts arenā€™t your thing or arenā€™t accessible to you in some way, the episode is largely talking to two of several of the authors of this series of articles by The American Prospect: prospect.org/pricing

Great episode on ā€œpricingā€ and the greed of corporations and others to rinse you out of as much money as possible, in a largely unregulated and highly psychological manipulative fashion.

Itā€™s Americans focusing on America but much applies globally.

People who experience chronic fatigueā€¦ is it painful for you? Iā€™m in a lot of pain today. Itā€™s hard to tell what sort of pain. Or even if it is physical pain. But it hurts. I donā€™t know if this is common, and I donā€™t really know how to describe it and the failure to do so is quite isolating.

Just a reminder: Responding to (insert fear of an immediate and ongoing attack on US civil rights) with an entreaty to vote, an action that cannot immediately protect that person or even guarantee protection is forthcoming, is one of the shittiest, most privileged things you can do. Don't do it.

Obviously we care about diversity! Sure, a lot of our white people are from the UK but we also have some white people from Germany, Spain and France. Recently we received funds to hire further out and we have our first White American! True diversity of thought!!

Itā€™s pretty wild to me that the US still get nationwide free vaccines, and only the most vulnerable can get them here in the UK. The country where some politicians are considering mask bans are still giving out free vaccines.
