Today was supposed to be adoption day for Bruticus, but the people who applied for him dropped out of contact and did not finalize the adoption contract or pay the fee so this guy is still on the market.

Non-autistic humans love to say “everyone deals with that.”
Of course there’s overlap.
We’re all human.
But what we experience internally as autistic humans is different.
To flatten that into “same” isn’t solidarity.
It’s erasure.
It’s violence.

#Patriarchy is a scam that leverages identity insecurity to manipulate men into tunnel-visioned worship of fictional gender criteria.
Why the hell do men still buy into this destructive "Real Man™️" horseshit?

There is no "Real Man" competition, and you sure as shit shouldn't be listening to any "alpha" shmuck who thinks they have the authority to decide who is or isn't a "Real Man."
