I see no politician willing to do what is necessary to save our Republic. I no longer have faith in any political party.

The election was stolen from me. I'm the real president.

Is it bad enough now that everyone will do a general strike or nah?

I don't know which nonbinary person needs to hear this but it's not inherently feminine to want breasts.

And it's not inherently masculine to bind or desire a smaller chest at times.

So get that breast augmentation or chest reduction if you want, Them.

You are valid.

Maybe the Minneapolis police department will stop harming citizens after all this? 🤔

Whenever the rest of American citizens are actually ready to do a real protest like a general strike, ya'll let me know.

Because until then, we're not actually ready to end this tyranny.

Being Indigenous doesn’t look one way.

I am proud to be Bodéwadmi.

Survival took many forms.

Erasure loves a stereotype.

I’m not anti-technology.

I’m anti-tech that ignores disabled people.

Ethical AI starts with accessibility, consent, and care.

Late diagnosis didn’t change who I am.

It changed how much grace I give myself.

That alone has been life-altering.

You can’t claim to care about freedom while supporting:

– military occupation
– border militarization
– forced removals
– mass incarceration

Empire doesn’t become ethical because it waves a flag.

Capitalism requires exploitation.

Imperialism requires extraction.

Trump just said the quiet part loud.

None of this is new. It’s just less polite.

There is nothing “moderate” about caging people, deporting families, or disappearing migrants into detention centers.

If your politics require cruelty, they’re already bankrupt.

Borders are enforced with violence.

Capital is protected with violence.

Empire survives on violence.

People asking to live and survive are not the problem.

This is my version of living dangerously.

Being #autistic means I will notice the one weird noise in the room and forget what I was saying entirely.

Being #ADHD means I will then hyperfocus on the noise.

Being #disabled means I will need a nap about it.

Hi, I’m a writer who moves slowly.

#Autistic & #ADHD, #disabled, late-diagnosed, #Indigenous (Bodéwadmi, Citizen Band), #nonbinary / #two-spirit.

I post about #disability, #grief, slow living, ethical #AI as accommodation, #cannabis as care, and honest connection. 🌱
January 13, 2026 at 3:15 PM
Using AI as an accommodation has helped me conserve energy for the parts of life that matter most.

Ethical tech isn’t about speed. It’s about care.
