The surprising, anti-monopolist history of Monopoly People think Monopoly was born of the Great Depression. But as author Mary Pilon discovered, Monopoly was actually created as a leftwing teaching tool around the Gilded Age.

The cutthroat Monopoly board game we know today first popped up in the 1930s, but the game has actually been around since the Gilded Age. And its original version taught a different lesson about the distribution of wealth.

Neurodivergent people have a different way of thinking. Different is good. Diversity is good. It’s why life evolved in webs of diversity. The current regime wants to stamp that out and make copies of themselves in some sort of clonic inbred way that would have spelled extinction for most species.

Why Small Talk Exhausts Autistic and ADHD People Vagueness isn’t harmless it’s often a tool for control, extraction, and gaslighting towards neurodivergent persons.

For everyone who loves the art of small talk please pull up because it's a neurotypical standard that's inherently not accessible for neurodivergant minds/souls

As we fight tyranny, we build solidarity. From solidarity, we draw courage. Surrounded by courageous people and institutions, we more easily find courage within ourselves to keep fighting. Remember: tyranny is only possible if people submit to it.
