“You don’t have to explain it like I’m 5!” If an autistic person is showing you how to do something, their step-by-step approach, including giving lots of detail, may come across as condescending. However, your autistic instructor isn’t trying to talk down to you, they’re simply teaching the way they learn. [ID: White text on maroon text box with blue border.

Have you ever been told you teach in a condescending way?

The incompetence of MSM in full flight!
It’s taking community to ask/raise the blatantly obvious, the questions #auspol don’t want to answer.

ABC commentator referring to fiery outbursts in Oval Office between #Trump and #Zelensky. No! I saw shouting and abuse from #Trump and #Vance with dignified responses from #zelensky interrupted by more abuse from #trumpvance

Yeh, I noticed, but still interesting.

‘Standing up for the people of Gaza is not antisemitic’: Usman backs dumped cricket journalist Cricket reporter Peter Lalor has received support from the Australian opener Usman Khawaja after the journalist was told he could not cover cricket for SEN any more due to his social media support of ...

Shabby treatment of Peter Lalor by SEN. Ethical journalists are able to separate their personal opinions from their professional work. Media employers should be backing their staff, not caving into pressure from those who disagree with presenters' personal views. theage.com.au/sport/cricke...

Flurry of emails exchanged between Ita Buttrose and David Anderson before Antoinette Lattouf’s sacking Federal court file indicates Buttrose, Anderson and ABC chief content officer communicated on 19 December before Lattouf was taken off air on 20 December

The ABC (my employer) needs to stop defending this case against Lattouf and settle - including an apology and reinstatement. They should not have taken her off air in such a manner. Her colleagues stand with her.

Good reminder @mikehunt13.bsky.social @horseshoepartyuk.bsky.social, especially in relation to resources for health, education and community wellbeing services #auspol
