[fluffmugger]

You really need to see this in the US because everyone else on the fucking planet has been seeing this for nearly a week and we are PISSED

Your government, in the middle of a global fucking pandemic, literally tried to buy the vaccine under development for said pandemic exclusively for the US.

This isn’t just a daily fail bullshit squawk, this has been confirmed by multiple sources, INCLUDING THE GODDAMN GERMAN GOVERNMENT.  “CAPITALISM HAS LIMITS” and you have crossed a fucking line.

Seriously tho as someone who put literal years of effort into creating a Wikipedia hoax it’s basically impossible to get away with for more than like an hour. They’re fucking vigilant. I tried to build up trust by doing legit editing but my account got reviewed cause I approved a page that mismeasured the size of a ship by a few centimeters

What I Do

[autistic-reptile]

something people don’t talk about enough: both extremes in autism

almost every autistic trait has something to do with extremes, and for most of them, autistic people can be on either end of the scale. sometimes this is for hyper/hypo sensitivity reasons, and sometimes it’s due to overcompensation.

examples of some typical autistic traits and their equally austistic counterparts:

no empathy? how about having such extreme empathy that you cry when your stuffed animals are ignored?

no/wrong facial expressions? how about exaggerated facial expressions because you learned early on you were doing it wrong?

nonverbal? how about being hyperverbal and not knowing when to stop talking?

highly advanced vocabulary? how about when you can’t remember common everyday words in conversation?

can’t tell when things are awkward? how about having such an sensitivity to awkwardness that you can barely stand being in the room when an awkward moment happens on tv?

has a meltdown over a small tag on their shirt? how about being so oblivious to physical sensations that you don’t know you broke a bone?

doesn’t follow social norms? how about a strict adherence to social norms, often accompanied by severe anxiety that you’re not doing it right?

can’t stand bright lights and loud noises? how about pressing lights so close to your eyes that you’re temporary blinded and constantly making noises when it gets too quiet?

no eye contact? how about intense, sustained eye contact that you don’t know when to break?

constantly rocking back and forth? how about being unable to walk without getting disoriented?

remember this when people say “you don’t seem autistic” - there is no quintessential autistic representation. this is what we mean when we say it’s a spectrum.

[harrygodzilla]

Asking white people to put themselves in the shoes of others and have a little empathy is apparently discriminatory now. Fuck that guy

[theneurotypicalprivilege-blog]

Calling someone “low functioning” is both dehumanizing and ableist.  Calling someone “high functioning” invalidates their struggles.

[pro-autistic]

You’re allowed to just casually like things as an autistic person.

You’re not “fake” for having more lowkey interests.

It’s not always an all-or-nothing thing. Not everything you like has to be or has to become a special interests. You can have regular interests too.

YOU VOTED AND HERE IT IS! I realized all of us with ADHD are so vastly different and unique, that a Sheet where you can show what affects you would be better than a “this is ADHD” — because it might not be everyone’s ADHD.

Show me what you got!!

This is so powerful and courageous. Police all over the country are pulling this despicable shit. They’re supposed to be protecting and serving. Monsters.

This has put me in tears. These were children going to see an animated movie about funny animals. Instead, they were attacked by police. This is sickening
