kind of funny that this shit is so common though that people on instagram think this article is targeted at someone specific

“this is bullying” who? a racist? it’s bad to shame someone? for being RACIST??

“i can’t help being racist, i’m just autistic and it’s hard for me to understand all the nuances!” weird how autistic POC figured out those nuances and you didn’t

it also just generally grosses me out the way some people really lean into the whole “autism is just the next step of human evolution!” shit. that’s not what evolution means and you sound like a eugenicist

you are not inherently more important/morally correct/superior to NTs!!

do you have a kofi?

also: “wait a minute, i’m thirty, i don’t have to deal with that drama”

luckily, the overwhelming majority of comments are lovely, but the fact that people are so hostile to male vulnerability is so bleak. what on earth has to be wrong with you to harass a stranger like that

there’s just something particularly sick about a young man trying to reduce the stigma around mental health, and then getting suicide bait in the comments. a man tries to actually do something for other men, and people of all genders try to tell him he’s worthless.

i follow this guy on instagram who solo travels with a little duck stuffed animal. talks a lot about his mental health struggles. you can see how anxious he is in his videos and how hard he’s trying

people will comment shit like “bring back bullying” and worse

also i wouldn’t consider 14C cold, but low humidity is pretty nice. i’m so used to living in soup in the northeast that texas winter is nothing

my sister: why are you so sweaty, it’s so cold outside

me: i was running

sister: running??

me: ?? you swim?

sister: yeah but RUNNING? i can’t run

me: i said i was running, not that i was good at it

the way people talk about men and masculinity sometimes sounds just as restrictive and horrible as how people talked about women in the 2000s. if you don’t perform a certain way for a small subset of men, you’re just worthless
