Some of you may not want to hear this, but sometimes autism accommodation means giving that socially awkward person who said something that came off as passive aggressive or uncomfortable the benefit of the doubt. Not everyone is capable of reading social rules and cues effectively, I thought this was autism 101.

[marzipanandminutiae]

you can always ask for clarification or (NICELY) explain how it came off to you, remember!

I have an autistic coworker who used to say really uncomfortable things to museum guests while making small talk. like bringing up active, controversial revolutions in their countries if they were international, and such. finally, after a group of Hawaiian guys got visibly angry when he asked if they were "in the military or just rich" to be able to live there- meant to be a cost of living joke -I said, "hey, personally, I try not to talk politics with guests. sometimes it may upset them and we don't get paid enough to deal with that"

he looked thoughtful and said, "oh, I never considered it that way." turns out he was just a geopolitics nerd and didn't realize people might react emotionally to what he saw as a purely intellectual discussion

he hasn't done it since

a funny thing about having conversations with people within institutions (academic in this case but also others) about gatekeeping, is that you end up having a conversation over and over in which you're like, "hey this alligator spike pit moat you have erected around your institution is keeping a lot of people out," and they're like, "well *I* navigated the alligator spike pit moat just fine," and you're like, "right. by dint of us having this conversation, you within the institution and me without, it is understood that you navigated the alligator spike pit moat. due to that being an inherent requirement of entering the institution," and they're like, "I don't think you understand the prestigious history of our alligator spike pit moat," and you're like, "is there a reason why there needs to be an alligator spike pit moat encircling the concept of higher education?" and they're like, "look, the alligator spike pit moat isn't for everyone. some people just aren't cut out for the alligator spike pit moat :)" and you're like, "right, yeah, like disabled people and people coming from poverty or unstable home environments or underserved communities or people dealing with difficult to navigate life events like pregnancy or abuse or prison or addiction or the death of a loved one, for example" and they're like, "how dare you imply that we are keeping those people out on purpose. it's their own problem if they can't wrestle the alligators and avoid the spikes while also disabled and/or poor and/or pregnant etc" and you're like, "well that seems evil," and they're like, "it sounds like maybe you're just bitter about the alligator spike pit moat because of your totally random individual experience with ONE bad alligator spike pit moat. have you considered therapy?" and you're like, "did you know that there's some patterns here in terms of how y'all are handling this stuff?" and they're like, "actually yes. we even have a department of alligator spike pit studies :)" and you're like, "that's great, how do I get access to and participate in those conversations?" and they're like, "well firstly you must cross the alligator spike pit moat"

australian sour patch kids have gluten in them i am truly at my fucking limit im crashing out im waging war against wheat idgaf anymore

[amvs]

oh is that one of those things where ableist companies put in traces of common allergens so they can just avoid the cost of making it safe

[deadsetagainst]

WHAT

[amvs]

Why Manufacturers Are Intentionally Adding Allergens to Their Foods

A trend we predicted in 2016 continues.

US based but it’s similar reasons in other countries. and of course many companies have international locations. idk if that’s why it’s happening with sour patch kids but this is a thing

[rosetintmyworld84]

I cannot even explain how ANGRY I am at this.

My nephew is very allergic to eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, and sesame. Last year my sister discovered all hot dogs and hamburger buns now contain sesame. Not "may contain", but listed in the ingredients. This year basically every brand of sliced bread also now contains sesame, making it very difficult to find bread items he can eat.

They're just adding it to their products, so they can just list it as an ingredient and not bother with worrying about cross contamination. And they aren't even bothering with telling anyone. Capitalism is going to kill us all.

"Which brings us back to Kellogg’s. Back in 2016, the company found a way around the added burden and expense of complying with the FSMA: they simply began adding trace amounts of peanut flour to their cracker products. Doing so allowed them to list peanuts as an ingredient of the product, freeing them from having to prevent cross-contact.

At the time, Kellogg’s notified Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE) about the impending change and left it to them to warn the allergic community. In this case, Pearson’s didn’t even bother as near as we can tell."

Oro, Coro and Doro Robot-Era robots (2013) Institute of BioRobotics, Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies, Pisa, Italy. Oro, Coro and Doro (top photo, left to right respectively) are three robots developed in the Robot-Era project beginning 2012, with the aim of developing robots for the elderly to enable independent living.

"Doro, an acronym for Domestic Robot, helps people move around the house, remembers appointments (including medicine schedules), detects gas leaks, makes video calls and, if necessary, orders groceries online. Coro, also known as Condominium Robot, is designed for the surveillance of condominiums: it moves in a lift from one floor of the building to another, has no arms but mounts a long conveyor belt that it uses to exchange objects – even large ones – with the other two robots. Oro, on the other hand, is an Outdoor Robot, a device designed for the outdoors: it is able to move around the city autonomously thanks to sophisticated position sensors and can be used to collect groceries, throw away the rubbish or accompany the elderly on walks." – Doro, Coro and Oro: intelligent robots to help the elderly, by Giovanni Sapere, The Patent Invention Magazine.

"The Domestic (Doro) and Condominium (Coro) robots share most of their hardware components and they were designed upon the SCITOS G5 mobile platform (developed by Metralabs). The outdoor robot (Oro) is the DustCart platform, whose first version was produced within the DustBot project. … Implementing a service which operates in different areas implies problems within the 'link' between heterogeneous environments. The solution used in the Robot-Era system is based on the division of workspaces among the different agents involved in the system. Specifically, during the implementation of the shopping delivery and garbage collection services, the main problem occurred while carrying items from an outdoor environment to an indoor one and vice versa. In more detail, the haulage of goods is managed through an exchange phase between Coro and Oro. From a hardware point of view, the exchange is performed through actuated rollers on mobile platforms — the SCITOS G5 platform and the Oro robot — and the mechanism of the mobile cart in Oro is also used to open and close the basket." – Development of a Socially Believable Multi-Robot Solution from Town to Home.

My very first reverse mermaid pin-up! With extra glitter embellishments because she's worth it.

This sassy young thing was based on a pose in @adorkastock's reverse mermaid pose set. The whole thing was delightful but something about this pose with the little kicky leg spoke to me.

[str-ngeloop]

kink reaches mayyybe like sex 1.3 if it hits just right

[dizzyghoast]

when sex 2 comes out what sorts of quality of life updates will be included to help draw in people who never really got into sex 1

[str-ngeloop]

more pleasurable. more intellectually stimulating. higher skill ceiling. more dynamic metagame. optionally more mental-emotional alignment between parties. less cleanup. more intuitive. more variety in sensation and activity to match diverse sensory tendencies. smoother integration with parties' coupled emotional processing. and so on

yuri is the most important thing and everything else is secondary. don't forget this.

idk i would personally rather give up access to certain products seasonally or locally than have people enslaved to give me the ability to have any product any place any time. i think i can go without tomatoes in january.

[laserwalnut]

What if Fisherman Andrew with a full team of magikarp on Route 205 of Sinnoh was a Palina/Iscan descendant. Yes him specifically. I mean. Not ALL descendants have to be all that remarkable… though if you ask me having a full team of magikarp IS remarkable. But I digress.

if youre in the US (especially the northeast + michigan) i would avoid bagged salads/greens and generally wash your produce very thoroughly unless you want the diarrhea parasite

[klapollo]

Outbreak of diarrhea-causing parasite grows to more than 1,000 cases

Michigan is experiencing its largest outbreak of a parasitic infection that causes severe diarrhea. Nearly 1,000 people have been diagnosed

this is not life-threatening, but also who wants weeks of diarrhea and a fucking parasite in them lol. if you suspect you've already had this and it's passed, i would see a doctor. you might need an antiparasitic anyway. if you're actively sick, see a doctor and they might be able to prescribe medication to help you get over it faster.

try to avoid eating raw vegetables, scrub fruit with a produce brush and rinse thoroughly with water. again, don't bother with premade greens or bagged salads. if you buy lettuce, remove the outer 2-3 layers of leaves.

there are UNVERIFIED rumors that the greens have been linked to a company that sources to taco bell. some locations have been actively pulling fresh ingredients like lettuce, avocado, and pico de gallo to mitigate the threat, so i would avoid any products from them just in case. considering how vast supply chains are, i'd be wary of any fast food greens in general for now.

further tips from an immunocompromised person obsessed with food safety:

- wash and then cook your vegetables. air fry, bake, sautee, deep fry, whatever to 165F

- if you really want a salad, get locally farmed veg from the farmers market and wash VERY thoroughly. if the farm has info about their labor practices, even better. workers' safety keeps us safe too

- you can blanch some greens too but this isn't as safe as cooking thoughly

- wash your hands thoroughly before & after prepping raw vegetables

- avoid cross contamination in your kitchen from raw vegetables. act like it's raw chicken
