I know the library staff hate to see me coming with my incessant Interlibrary Loan requests as I work on my lit review for my thesis

Let’s make listening to media out loud on your phone in the waiting room (at least at adult doctors’ offices) socially unacceptable again.

We need to teach people the difference between being uncomfortable and being unsafe. Because the discomfort of the safest people is endangering the most vulnerable, all day every day.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

This! My mom had such a hard time getting me an ADHD diagnosis as a kid because I did well at school. I have pretty severe ADHD, but I experienced restraint collapse.
Just a friendly reminder that getting good grades ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT mean that a child can’t have ADHD. Kids with ADHD often struggle in many areas of social and emotional functioning even when they are OK academically, and the right treatments and supports can help.

You can take the kid out of the classical music concert but you can’t take the classical concert etiquette out of the kid.

The notion that the government is full of waste has been brought to you by some of the wealthiest corporations on earth, each of which see their own workers as a wasteful expenditure. If they could fire everyone who makes them money, they would. Capitalism is a leopard that will eat its own face.

You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union.

If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South.

Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

if you can't do 3 or 4 days of rapid fire shit from the admin without collapsing/withdrawing, maybe you need to stop trying to mentally solve for The World and tighten your scope a little bit. Are you texting your friends? Are you reading a book? Do you have a sensory soothe in place? Tea is nice.

When you feel yourself becoming complacent or surrendering to hopelessness or apathy, remember that everything that exists today exists because someone(s) dreamt it up and decided to put in the work to make it a reality. We can create new ways of doing things, new ways of being, new worlds.

If you’re the kind of person who easily forgets what you’ve accomplished, you need a practice for reminding yourself. Count the years, the finished projects, the progress, the praise, count it all up and use it as evidence against the ever present criticism in your head that you’re not doing enough.

I wish there was a cane emoji. I appreciate that there are emojis for other mobility aids, but I wish there was one that represented me.

What if we stopped blaming the bad things on people with no money and power and focused the blame on the folks with money and power? 🤔

I feel very called out
ME: [extremely burnt out] I need to take the day off to relax

ALSO ME: I wonder if there is a way that I could relax that would be more productive

A reminder that the whole autism vaccine myth depends heavily on the fact people would rather their kids died than be autistic.
