“There’s a perception of autistic people and people with [intellectual and developmental disabilities] overall, that we’re not able to make our own decisions. Big decisions like those around health care, education, living arrangements.”
If you’re trans I think it’s important that you know that TERFs are using anti-trans rhetoric to stop autistic people from transitioning. Autistic people are highly likely to be trans, genderqueer, nb, or otherwise gnc.
We deserve the right to transition.
Autistic people already face frequent barriers to transition within existing medical systems. Here in the Netherlands those can range from longer diagnosis to being told to ‘work on your autism first’ to simple refusals to diagnose and prescribe care to a trans person because they are autistic.
One of the many examples of why our fight for self determination and access to transition care must be intersectional.
Do you know what the consensus on pit bulls is? Some people say the negative stereotypes surrounding them are unfair, while others insist they’re inherently dangerous dogs that shouldn’t be kept as pets. Both views are biased to some degree, so I don’t know which to believe.
and same as german shepards, same as huskies, same as dalmations, they have specific breed requirements and aren’t right for every home! also like all dogs, they have to be trained to be a reliable and safe pet. but with their needs met and good training, they’re about the same as any other dog in their size range (with individual exceptions for personal history and trauma of course)
Except pit bulls have the ability to lock their jaws unlike other dog breeds. So even if pit bulls aren’t more likely to attack someone, an attack is likely to be much worse than an attack by any other breed.
common misconception! not actually true tho
they just have very strong jaws, but so do many other large breeds
millennials on here like 6 years ago: okay guys remember we’re never gonna be assholes to the younger generation because we’ve been through that with gen x and the baby boomers and that really sucked to constantly get belittled and told we’re universally wrong
millennials on here now: Here’s How Zoomers As A Whole, The Oldest of Which Are Like 21 Years Old, Will Be The Death Of Human Creativity And Expression And Connection. We Might As Well Kiss Society Goodbye Because They’ll All Turn It Into A Dystopia Run By Big TikTok
oh dear I fear we have very much breached containment
wow I can’t believe the person who thinks gen z is “too woke” and using a term for staying vigilant about racism as a negative is a fucking radfem. what a shock. I’m so surprised
If you’re like me, you may have had the feeling that since lockdown people have been ruder, more aggressive, and lacking in compassion and empathy. The bad news is, you might be right. Some studies and data coming out show that people have gotten ruder and more aggressive since lockdown (x)(x)(x). And the thing is, if even a few people have gotten ruder and more aggressive over the past few years, that’s unfortunately spreading. Rudeness and aggression are contagious, if someone feels stressed and upset and like the world is against them because of constant cruelty and apathy from others, they may be likely to adapt the same attitude and spread this attitude even more.
However, there’s good news too! Kindness, courtesy, and compassion are also contagious! Acts of kindness and compassion uplift others and inspire them to do the same. You have the power to start a ripple affect with acts of kindness, compassion, empathy, and just good manners. You have the power to put the breaks on or even reverse this trend in aggression and hostility that’s popped up the past few years.
I made this blog because I’m tired of the constant hostility I’ve witnessed in public over the past few years. I think we have the power to do better, if we’re only reminded.
Now you may be wondering, why do good manners even matter? Aren’t they just a bunch of dumb rules made up by old dead people? Well, maybe some manners like “no hats indoors” or “no elbows on the table” are arbitrary and honestly it’s harmless not to follow those, but that’s why I won’t be focusing on good manners that have no clear purpose behind them in this blog. In this blog, I’m going to focus on manners that matter.
By manners that matter I mean, manners that have a clear and definable purpose of showing compassion and empathy to other people. Your words and actions have consequences in how they affect the people around you, manners make sure that they affect others in a good way. Manners are the true social lubricant that makes sharing both private and public spaces with other people better for everyone.Going to work, going to restaurants and shops, and using any public space like roads, sidewalks, and parks is going to be better for everyone if we’re all being considerate and compassionate to those around us. And this matters because, just like I said earlier kindness is just as contagious and cruelty, so when you’re kind and polite to others it will circle back around to you eventually either way.
This is also why I’ll be posting an explanation for every manner I post. I myself an neurodivergent so I understand the importance of needing an explanation behind manners. And even if you’re not neurodivergent I understand why you wouldn’t want to just blindly follow an old social rule without being given a good explanation. This is why I’ll always explain why it’s polite to do x. Why it’s beneficial to you and/or others.
And always remember for every manner I post, I am forcing you to do any of these. If you are unable to do any given manner I post for any reason, or you just don’t want to, you are free to ignore it and simply carry on with your life. Of course if you’re a wheelchair user it’s going to be harder to open doors for others or if you’re non-verbal it’s not going to be possible to say excuse me whenever you accidentally bump into someone. Consider this my disclaimer that any of these that you are unable to do due to a disability you are not obligated to do.
Unreasonably into buying a partner clothes to then fuck messy in
please be a mindless doll for a little bit, let me edge you to the point your eyes are tearing up whimpering and trembling while I make you hold poses and dress you up
Wish I had a girl to be my personal pornstar. Let me record everything I do to her. I want to sit at a coffee shop with headphones on casually listening to their moans. I want to go out, running errands, just listening to them whimper and moan for hours. I might tap my fingers lightly or lean back with my coffee and my eyes closed to enjoy the sweetest music. I’ll probably start to lose my composure after a while and struggle to keep a straight face but it won’t stop me. I’ll no doubt be desperate to touch my partner when I get home.
not sure how many soccer/football fans i have here but i want to take a moment of silence for this sequence of events:
france bans hijabs in sports -> france is outraged there is one, singular woman on the moroccan team in hijab playing in this world cup -> france calls the entire country and team “regressive” and “backwards” -> firestorm of racist, islamophobic takes in french media -> france says they won’t broadcast any moroccan matches where nouhaila benzina is playing in hijab -> moroccan team does great and qualifies -> morocco is then scheduled to play france, who now has eat their own words and broadcast the match
