Hannah Gadsby on her autism diagnosis: ‘I’ve always been plagued by a sense that I was a little out of whack’
Even as a child, the comedian knew her brain was atypical. But it was only in her late 20s that her anxiety, depression and meltdowns finally made sense

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

Some people don’t get that if someone is a trash talker, they will eventually trash talk about you, and it shows. This isn’t about talking trash #leopardsatemyface

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

Follow this thread. You don’t have to err on the side of politeness when you can pattern-recognize a dangerous outcome. Shut it down now.
I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

Ok I’m back. More from my TBR: Turn This World Inside Out: The Emergence of Nurturance Culture - Nora Samaran

As an “okay wtf are we gone do? What are the alternatives?” Type of person, I’m super interested in this proposition of “nurturance culture” as an opposite to abuse and r*pe culture 💙📚

Sharing this much needed pep talk. It gives a little insight to our country’s process.

Also please remember for the global majority, please conserve your energy to focus on you and your family’s safety.

And to all those wanting to be allies, get to work!!! 💙💙💙

I wish I’d known I was #autistic before I lost so much of my functioning from prolonged masking. When I was in and out of mental health services from a young age (including a year in hospital), when I was suicidal because being me in an NT world was too painful, when I struggled to fit in anywhere

My decade ago experience with twitter was scrolling through what felt like half references and inside discussions that left me exhausted. I wanted to start tweeting vague enigmatic phrases to confuse you all too, to fit in. I almost did that here but stopped. 1/
