"The point of this deluge is not to persuade, but to overwhelm & paralyze our capacity to act. Viral outrage disseminated on social media (...) reduces the effectiveness of collective action. Tech platforms encourage us ...to post & seethe & doomscroll into the void, always reacting & never acting."

We probably all need to become more blatantly anti-Silicon Valley. Give me less innovation, and more soul. New technology doesn’t mean infinite progress especially without being grounded in what it means to be human.

Autistic burnout is extreme long-term exhaustion and overwhelm triggered over time, where the stress of coping with life’s demands exceeds the autistic person’s ability to cope. They may lose the ability to carry out everyday tasks, lose skills they usually have and increased sensory difficulties.

Your regular reminder that the first known clinic to offer gender-affirming surgeries was … destroyed by Nazis. In 1933. (Magnus Hirschfeld’s Institut für Sexualwissenschaft.) They always come for trans people first.

ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe. That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US. This is the second verified incident I've heard about. We were here 1st. #ICE

It is very important to understand that Jews were never the only target of the 1930s Nazis and they are not the only targets of today’s Nazis. A Nazi salute is not only antisemitic. It is also racist, ableist, and queerphobic.

dad bought me (us, really) a book about autism he found by his own initiative 💕 it's the first gesture he's done to learn about autism on his own, I didn't expect how much it'd mean to me

Please don’t even talk to me in the morning until I’ve had my coffee, 27 hours of alone time, several months by the seaside to ease my agonies, and many decades to wander the earth until the fabled blade of my ancestors can finally be reforged

what’s your favorite instance of haptic nostalgia—the poignant memory of the physicality of an obsolete thing—like dialing a rotary phone, shifting gears in a manual transmission, opening a soda can with a pull ring?

Been internally struggling a lot lately to try and parse some of my daily autistic struggles. One thing that I was previously unaware of is how big a role sensory sensitivities actually play on my autism profile. I always allocated myself as one who didn't struggle as much with those 🧵

The number of countries that criminalise homosexuality has gone back up to 65. Mali, under military control since 2020, has just made homosexuality illegal with lengthy prison sentences for same sex sexual activity or actions that ‘promote’ homosexuality. www.mambaonline.com//2025/01/18/...

Decolonizing autism means breaking free from Western-centric ideas of what autism “looks like” and how it’s defined. Autistic experiences are shaped by culture, race, and history. We need to honor this diversity, challenge systemic bias, and build a movement that reflects all autistic humans.

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge). You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant no matter what the ICE officer says.

We now know UnitedHealth—under Brian Thompson—illegally overcharged cancer patients for meds by more than 1000%. What we don't know is how many cancer patients died or were financially ruined as a result? What we demand to know is why that act isn't deemed corporate murder & where are the arrests?
