this randomly blew up on twitter so i figured i’d post it here bc lord knows everyone on this app is neurodivergent

[peachdoxie]

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I'm like "yeah there's this invisible wall in my head that I'm incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things" and they're like what the actual fuck

Meanwhile other neurodivergents are like

On November 7, 2024, Denmark used a racist, culturally biased "parenting competency" test to remove a 2 hour old baby, Zammi, from her loving indigenous Greenlandic Inuit mother, Keira, because her native language, which uses minute facial expressions to communicate, will not be able to "[prepare] the child for the social expectations and codes that are necessary to navigate in Danish society." This test had been recommended not to be used at the federal level before this happened but certain municipalities, including the one this happened in, chose to continue to use it regardless. Not only is this blatantly racist but also violates multiple declarations and conventions that Denmark has signed that protect the rights of indigenous people.

Please sign this petition to help Keira to get her baby back.

Bring a little girl inuk greenlander ZAMMI BACK HOME

Can you spare a minute to help this campaign?

[emptydragonseverywhere]

Hey, it's really important for Keira to get 50,000 signatures on this petition before her court date in early April 2025. Please sign if you haven't already to help a mother and a people stand up to colonialism and for indigenous rights.

Forget about torturing your blorbos, putting them through the ringer. I'm putting my blorbo in perfectly ordinary, pleasant situations. Their tortured personality will cause them anguish anyway, making an absolutely mundane scene into the most dramatic, agony filled affair as though the world is ending and it's all their fault

I think the historical treatment of left handed people is objectively the funniest form of bigotry mankind has ever displayed

Bitches will create a binary and use it to oppress the other side for ANYTHING

This goes out to all my fellow abuse survivors who struggle with “basic things” now that you’re an adult.

You haven’t failed. You aren’t stupid. A lot of these things were things you should have been taught in a nurturing environment and it’s not your fault you weren’t given that.

[aprilthebookqueen]

Also, to anyone who struggles with these things because of disabilities or executive dysfunction or anything like that, you also haven’t failed. You aren’t stupid and it’s very much okay if you struggle with or even can’t do some of those things that seem to just be expected of you by society.

[woman-becomer]

have you ever stopped and thought about how horses are real? we live in a world that has these things in it

[passtheranchpls]

Wait they are? Oh fuck

[thecrazyalchemist]

Here they come!

They're hungry

[woman-becomer]

the energy you brought to my post is atrocious

[that-us3l3ss-lesbian]

If you ever think you are safe, just remember that horses are omnivores

Anyways, this is fucking disgusting.

Listen, I understand being curious about celebrities' lives. If you see a celebrity doing a bunch of gay things you might think "hey, maybe that artist is queer" but that's as far as it should go. You should never harass, or threaten, or force anyone to come out. That is fucking disrespectful and wrong. Queerness is about including anyone who feels that they do not fit into normal society, there is no one way of being queer. It's not a box, it's free and open and that's the beauty of it, so how about we fucking stop forcing queer people to come out, or label themselves, it's none of your business.

This has become a pattern and it needs to STOP

[the-real-seebs]

i think that if a celebrity wants to talk about their identity they can, and if they don't want to, it is none of my fucking business.

this is why i won't accept rules like "only trans people can talk about this". because i don't want people to have to be out to be heard.

i've been reading a lot of books about urban naturalism recently, and the one big thing they all talk about is how you HAVE to stop seeing nature as something that happens somewhere else. nature is not just charismatic megafauna and state parks and mountain ranges. nature is that abandoned lot that's growing native milkweed in it. nature is the murder of crows that lives in your block. nature is the moss growing on your roof and the dandelions growing in the sidewalk cracks and the song birds at your neighbor's birdfeeder. and you should care about it! you should notice it! that's YOUR nature!

I get that some folks hate Shrek for ushering in an age of irreverant genre comedies, but something the irreverent comedies and Shrek detractors forget is that movie had heart

Shrek was, at its core, a story about how othering and marginalization impacts the psyche and causes us to weaken our trust in ourselves and our relationships with others.

last week i was chatting with one of my coworkers about the restaurants in the area and he mentioned there's a place with amazing churros that he orders lunch from sometimes and i kinda laughed and said i've never had a churro but i've always wanted to try one because they look so fantastically decadent and i kinda joked that it's on my bucket list because every time i walk by a place that sells churros i think i should buy one but then i don't

i just came back to my desk after feeling really frustrated by an instrument in the lab that broke and ruined my data for the day, and found a churro wrapped in tinfoil with a sticky note on it that said "bucket list: ☑️ churro" and i'm

[hawkeyedflame]

i'm seriously gonna cry i had such a shit day all of my data got so fucked up and i had to spend like an hour reformatting my excel sheet but this simple kind gesture made the whole day less bad

israel's invasion of jenin is so aggressive and inhumane that it speaks volumes how underreported it is in mainstream media. blocking aid from the refugee camps (classic starvation tactic), displacing at least 20 families in the last 24 hours alone, and now setting fire to jenin's market. they are razing streets with bulldozers. people are left without electricity, food, or water. and now they're targeting ambulances and medical staff without even trying to pretend it's erroneous or they're just terrorists. this is what complete impunity looks like

[stuckinapril]

i truly don't understand how anyone can look at any of this and go "well it's been a year of this, so not my problem anymore!!" like it is your problem. it's everybody's problem. if you are choosing to care less during the time where everything is literally 10000x worse than it ever was, then you never cared. that's the truth

[stuckinapril]

#and all the media can focus on is the fucking hostages that israel themselves killed with their bombs and abject refusal to end the genocide #that and the strike action taken by the colonisers in protest at their ‘countrymen’s’ deaths #not the deaths of thousands in gaza nor the grinding of the war machine #to them and the western media one israeli’s life is worth a thousand times more than a million palestinians #truly an irredeemable nation of hitlerite genocidal colonisers whose every word is hung on by pathetic genocidal bourgeois press
