All I want to say is FUCK RFK JR Signed, an autistic person who wants you to leave us the fuck alone

The amt of times my child has gotten labeled with “behavior issues” this year when it’s quite literally just an ADHD/autism thing… I’ve already emailed the school bc I thought it was clear he needs supported not labeled…but I guess I need to go in & make it super clear

#wagingnonviolence #GeneralStrike youtu.be/60dU7lbb5RY?...

This is sooo…depressing I just cannot imagine wanting to get into a metal penis to go “into space” for 10 min knowing I didn’t earn it, I paid for it but also, I could have used that money to help many, MANY people instead of being selfish…oyyyyy

If you wanna laugh, here it is hahaha TikTok video shared below

Okay…I just laughed so hard bc not only did good ole JD fumble the National Championship trophy while attempting to present it to the buckeyes but he BROKE IT Karma is so much fun, petty too

“Well I wouldn’t care if they took out my private info so people wouldn’t know it was me” Well isn’t that GRAND FOR YOU! Tell me you’ve never actually been a patient without telling me bc homeboy would not be okay…I’d bet on it

STOP DOING THIS…this person might not even actually be a medical professional but those in the comments divulging pts at their most vulnerable is DISGUSTING

Milo…you can tell you’ve never actually worked in a factory a day in your life my dude

Not so much a problem once I am settled but to actively move… You realize how many muscles actually attach to your boob…I really dislike it right now

Say it with me… “There is NO Autism Epidemic!” Autistic People have always been here! It’s the criteria and understanding (causing more of us to be recognized) that has changed!

I saw this gorgeous orchid color on my journey and even mother nature keeps telling us trans lives matter. Also I need to make a colorway that matches this perfectly, right? 🧶 #handdyedyarn #indieyarndyer #yarnaddict

Year two of completing screening mammograms Year two of needing a fucking biopsy Ugggggh ready to get this over with

And this is how you know it will be a trash study bc ain’t no way you solve shit in 5 months…

What in the actual dystopian fuck

This is the ultimate “sit down and shut up, fall in line”

Community care is a friend texting me to find help for their friend…me not knowing & texting another friend who might know…then not knowing & texting another friend who did have an answer for all of us… Person is now hopefully getting the help they deserve!

Hi frens, As some of you know I do some satire/commentary on things for @religiondispatches.org sometimes. I wrote a new thing abt Amber Ruffin being cancelled, DEI, orange menaces, & truth. Read, share, critique, whatev. Have a nice day unless you're racist. religiondispatches.org/amber-ruffin...

“Be cool” My reaction: this cannot seriously be the person the small majority of yall thought would be a good choice…I don’t even tell people to “be cool” the fuck

This!!! Let’s stop using all the ableist words when we can call it what it is…evil

People misinterpret gentle parenting so much bc it’s simply about respecting the child & their autonomy instead of yelling & screaming & being abusive Wyatt got all the way to school the other day before he realize he forgot his backpack…they had to come back to get it

If you are a random dude whom I’ve never had a convo with & you choose to send me a message that reads like this… “Hey beautiful…can I ask you a question?” Assume the answer will be no & just don’t ask

More like they want to make sure the military outnumbers and can overpower the "rabble." They want a higher PROPORTION of us to be military-capable and they don't care who has to suffer and die to get that. Added effect: military is a prime way to propagandize people en masse.

Make American Healthy Again is a scam…I’ve read the whole thing now & you know why they are concerned? Not the health of the country really…they want to make sure we have enough people to pass a fitness test for the armed forces…yup…they are worrying about not enough people for the military 🫠

Not only did I run into a pole I thought I was fat enough away from to miss but I almost apologized to it for running into it… Who needs to make shit up when my real life is comical

I’m so fucking angry at this fucking state for acting like COVID was a figment of everyone’s imagination I’m on day six…I’d love for one of those fuckers to tell me I’m making this shit up…twatwaffles

The last time I was this exhausted, I had mono…like, just thinking about moving is making me tired This is going to really suck
