Just another neurodivergent techie. Expect to see me talk about computer networks, feminism, human rights, and autism--and how they are connected. Delcared un-American by the US government.

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states.
Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

My mother-in-law was nervous about wearing her #NoKings gear to the airport for her flight this morning, but she got *lots* of compliments. Even the TSA agent told her, "I like your shirt."

Most of my schooling, I was treated as having no labels.
I graduated HS barely -- in the bottom 25% of my class. Not through lack of ability, but because of not knowing I have ADHD+Autism.
I just completed a B.A. (my second). I had a 4.0.
The change *WAS HAVING THE LABEL*.
Labels aren't bad.

A Texas public university administrator's notes for a meeting with faculty.
"No daylight": faculty "cannot discuss or teach anything regarding transgender - only male and female." They must "scrub" syllabi for "transgender items."
And keep everything out of writing: "Don't email; talk directly."
