As always, there's no time like the present to wear a crown of ancient bones, disappear into a mysterious fog, and become a reason the old forest north of town is considered haunted.

If chronically ill people don’t hide their pain and suffering they’re often considered dramatic or hysterical. If they do hide it then they must be faking or must not be sick at all. We seem to never be able to win…

Growing up w/ undiagnosed learning disorders and/or neurodivergent conditions is absolutely a complex traumatic stressor-- not because there is anything traumatic about having them, but because of the way the culture almost always misunderstands & mistreats nonconforming people.

If you're GenX or older and giving Millennials shit for being angry that their futures have been pissed away at every goddamn turn, you need to sit down and shut the fuck up.
I understand that everyone has had it bad. But damn, y'all, the economy collapsed when I was 18 and it's taken until my mid thirties for me to make enough money to live on, barely. And now it's collapsing again. I'm tired of history being made.
Jesus Christ can’t you people just let millennials express some entirely deserved outrage and anger over getting hit with yet another major financial crisis without parachuting in to finger wag at us about it

How [not] to talk about autistic people: "Learning to recognize the features of autism instead of focusing on ‘deficits’ is crucial. No person deserves to be viewed as a collection of symptoms, yet that is the inevitable outcome of a deficit-based approach."

It only took 10 years but it now looks like my pancreas finally died and I'm supposed to start insulin therapy next Tuesday. There's a slim chance it's temporary but I'm not holding my breath.

Hi, this is just a casual reminder that it's totally OK not to tell strangers you hate things they like.
You can just...not do it. You can do something else.
As a bonus tidbit, you're also allowed to not have opinions on things if you don't know much about them. You can refrain from commenting.

So, uh, if this is showing on V-Day in the UK (and we're really hoping it is) going to see this film IS THE PLAN! 💚
HEART EYES is both a deeply earnest rom-com and an icky slasher that drew some honest-to-god gasps from our screening audience. That it satisfies in both regards feels miraculous. @joshruben.bsky.social, you magnificent bastard.

If your brain’s super tired & you’re struggling to get going but you have stuff to do so don’t have the option to hibernate then hi, me too. This photo’s for your brain-if you pause on it for a few moments it’s likely to dial down your stress hormone & trigger dopamine release: a small mind hack 🐚

Those of us who are deemed as “picky eaters” are often invalidated and stigmatized due to our diets and food choices. Parents with autistic children often say that they are “picky eater…
