Excellent point. Robby’s gonna be on network tv by Friday. Very very dumb.

My high school friend used to play lead guitar for Robby’s band Sweatpant Boners. I went to their shows 20 years ago, and this is not just an act. This is his actual personality and I’m proud of the work he’s doing.

Autism acceptance must be rooted in racial justice. The future of the neurodiversity movement depends on it.
White autistics: you have a role to play but it starts with humility and a willingness to confront how whiteness has shaped the autistic identity we’ve been sold

I can't tell you how much it hurts my brain to hear people in their seventies go rabid over the idea of government paid healthcare and become homicidal at the thought of a universal basic income while they enjoy their government paid healthcare and collect their universal basic income.

I had apple juice recently for the first time in a while and wondered why I didn’t have it more often, so this makes sense. Passion fruit juice is my personal favorite.

My little egg (14) self-identified as pan by 5th grade, but the rest is taking some time to sort out. Femboy was definitely a step in the process! 🙃

Have you ever been gaslit so bad that the person who abused you started saying you abused them?- They will truly try to convince you it’s you and not them.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable

You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

Same. My biggest recent investments were protective equipment (whistles, eyewear, and gas masks bc it’s looking more and more like they’ll be used) and a new pair of Doc Martens 8-holes at 75% off. Otherwise it’s basically essentials only, with minor indulgences bc ya gotta have JOY, too!

I miss passionate sex. Lots of foreplay and kissing and touching. Feeling like you wanna be in each other’s skin. If it’s not like this, I don’t want it

It’s my favorite!!!! I’ve probably watched it through about a dozen times, and every time I catch something I’ve missed. Aubrey Plaza’s best role ever imho. I miss going to work the day after it aired and geeking out with a coworker for the entire lunch hour. The ONLY reason I keep Hulu. 😆

The last time I checked the definition of solidarity in terms of justice was listening to a marginalized group and doing what they say they need of you, not finding a way to keep doing what you’re already doing and still getting a gold star.

Once you have called disabled people a burden, you have facilitated the devaluation, dehumanization and death of disabled people.

we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

Halfway through The Woman in Cabin 10, and I get that it’s a “thriller” but all it really is so far is Keira Knightley being gaslit. Boring.
