Hey, cool post about how sad you are about that nightmare bill getting passed! It's weird because I remember you're the same person who could not stop bitching right before the election that could have prevented all this about how much democrats suck and are the same as republicans and how utterly painful it was for you to consider voting for Harris and those words and vibes influenced who knows how many other people to not vote or not vote democrat in a ridiculously close election. You could have maybe just kept those propaganda-laced trump-serving opinions to yourself during those pivotal months but I guess it was worth it to feel rad and critical and not cringe. Anyway, sorry you're so disappointed with what you helped to do!

And when this is only starting to present to others as a problem in your 30s because you're so burned out you just can't keep masking and pushing through any more... They think you're looking for an excuse to justify your "laziness."

I love that folks are being more accepting of autism, but I don't love that autism is being sanitized into a quirk.

There's a cute and acceptable form of autism on social media, and I don't see any indication that folks are remotely ready for discussing the rest of it, which contains all the uncomfortable things that impede a person's everyday life, require support, and make acceptance almost impossible—where the hygiene struggles, inappropriate social behaviors, involuntary movements and outbursts, meltdowns, and emotional dependence issues live. And the cuter and more sanitized the "good" autism gets, the more unacceptable the "bad" autism becomes.

terfs would lose their minds if they were exposed to 2000s-2010s "a girl can do anything a boy can do, including beating them at sports" messaging like why are you all acting like nobody has ever said this and that it's radical to think that women aren't inherently worse at things. open your mind. read some feminist theory. touch some grass. the most basic banal middle-class white woman feminism of the 2010s looks fucking radical and visionary compared to the misogynistic victimization complex y'all are peddling

I certainly didn't vote for the scumbag, but if the majority of Americans wanted him as president, including my entire VERY blue collar working class small midwestern town, then yea, they can suffer the fallout. I do not feel sorry for them. They should get exactly what they've been promised by Republicans. The destruction of the modern world. They want it, they can have it. Sometimes you have to let the bratty toddler touch the stove when they won't heed your warnings.

when leftists say they care about the working class they dont, bcuz many of them never lived a life where they rely on government benefits like most ppl who are considered working class. thats why they dont care about trump gutting medicaid and snaps

this might sound stupid but I can’t help but believe that the new wave of “birth control is actually horrible for your body, you need to get off it immediately” misinformation from influencers and the ‘natural cycle tracking’ apps suddenly being advertised is a sneaky underhanded way of causing more unplanned pregnancies that people now cannot abort. now is possibly the worst time ever to turn towards ‘natural family planning’

my whole audhd experience as an adult has been:

professionally: i specialize in scenarios where we’re building the plane as we’re flying it

personally: my entire life is thrown off for 2 calendar weeks if i can’t get the specific variety of potatoes i eat

That feeling of convincing yourself to try something because "you're miserable now anyway / it can't be any worse" and it is SO much worse and you are SO much more miserable, but hey at least you KNOW and can confidently SAY it was awful instead of people guilt-tripping you with "well you should have at least TRIED" ... 🙄

“women don’t have the capacity for misogyny” have you ever met a mother

June 30th, huh? Makes sense why you quit talking to me.

[harriehq]

Someone explain to me why I'm required to goose step along and automatically adore EVERYTHING "queer culture" just because I'm queer. How about I like what I like????

I don't mean clinging to problematic creators like JKR when they obviously cause harm to trans people -- but why am I OBLIGATED to kiss Chappell Roan's ass when I just simply do not care for her shitck or music???

Let me determine my own tastes. My likes / dislikes are not determined by what's "popular" in whatever subculture.

keep messing up my plans, motherfucker, and we'll get along GREAT

I saw a post going around a while ago (including from a non-US moot) about getting comfortable lying to law enforcement

Here's the thing. In the US.

DO NOT TALK TO LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE FIRST PLACE.

If you are in a situation where you're lying to law enforcement, you are already interacting too much. STOP TALKING.

You can ask if you are free to go. You can keep asking.

Per the National Lawyers Guild, ESPECIALLY do not lie to the FBI. Do not say things to them that could be construed as lying. Those are serious charges. The best way around that is NOT TALKING.

In the words of the National Lawyers Guild: SHUT THE FUCK UP.

So Trump is adding 700 Marines onto the 2000 Guard he’s sent to quell the protests.

Just so you know, the original “quartering” acts that led to the Third Amendment referred not just to shelter, but to providing supplies, food, fuel, and transportation to soldiers. While the third amendment only refers to housing in text, a general boycott is a long and well established right in American law.

Shut them out. Refuse any service to the occupiers. Make them sleep on floors and streets, make them eat only rations. They’ve come prepared for active aggression, not passive aggression. An army marches on its stomach, so make them starve.
