White supremacists hiding the achievements of non-white people is a pretty good indication that they know white people aren’t supreme.

I'll correct it for him:
Not long ago, we knew so little about autism that we'd only found a tiny number of autistic people.
Now we realise that autistic people can be:
Women and girls
Black people and all other ethnicities & races
Extravert people.
People of all IQs.
People of all ages/

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand.
It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.

Transphobic people are ableist.
They think being trans is a mental illness... Which is absolutely isn't.
But then the way they treat and abuse people who *they* think are mentally ill, makes it even worse imo.

It's bisexual awareness week! Just so you're aware, every time you embrace a new part of yourself, you gain super powers. Super powers: Self-kindness, self-actualization, confidence to try new things after you stop thinking you're just a no good weirdo.*

the same companies that have made it illegal for me to copy blu rays for my personal use want to copy people for their commercial use
As Hollywood executives claim they can't afford to pay actors better wages, they're also spending lavishly on AI, with Netflix offering $900,000 for a single AI product manager.
87% of actors earn under $26k.

As someone raised in trauma, it was quite the revelation to learn the "2 things can be true" concept
Someone can be upset with you, but not hate you forever.
You can want to be better without hating yourself for your mistakes.
You can want nothing to do with someone but still wish them well.
