But at least Katy Perry went to space!!!

The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.

Massive fucking eye roll. If only I didn’t have to pay taxes!! Instead, they go to funding this bullshit 🙃

Okay hi Bluesky I’m back after a hiatus. Couldn’t handle the news onslaught for a few months but here I am. I know you were all just waiting on the edge of your seats for my return! Please don’t April fools me it’s my first day back

Happy Superb Owl Sunday! Here I am with Zeus, a truly Superb Eurasian Eagle Owl.

Came out with a song today. I wrote it as a breakup song with my career. We’re still together but it’s complicated.

This song!!! @imalexbluenow.bsky.social ffm.to/youwontmissme

“They will never, no matter what happens, take trans joy away.” Our resilience is in our joy. No politician can take that from us.

Just something pretty, that’s all.

This is very scary. Please share this info in ASL widely so folks know their rights. youtu.be/1Q-fpFGqLes?...

*takes notes*

He is doing shock and awe deliberately to unhinge and destabilize us. So that we are too frozen and traumatized to fight back. Shore up your inner resources. Do everything you can to stay grounded. Every act gumming up the works counts.

To be an autistic woman is always feeling a little bit like a Sylvanian Family hamster that's landed in Barbie World

RFK Jr is a hardline eugenicist. This is dangerous for *everybody,* but in combination with the recent attacks on disabled people and accessibility under the anti-DEIA orders, it's really, really bad for disabled folks.

Any screen reader users able to weigh in on this? (Both descriptions are accurate! Which is more helpful?)

Also want to say a bit about why things like removing accessibility page, ASL, and screen reading capabilities from the White House website matter. It feels performative, and it is. It's a coordinated effort to shift cultural norms.

Why are there so many undiagnosed adults who are only now discovering that they're either autistic, adhd, or neurodivergent in some way? I can explain... \1

If you’re not following @teenvogue.bsky.social … you should be! They come through with the type of reporting more media orgs should be doing, but aren’t. Today they posted an ICE neighbourhood watch guide to protect folks from deportation 🧵
