Vance and his family are expected to be met with a wide variety of demonstrators during their luxury vacation to the Cotswolds.

He’s gone harder after Rosie O’Donnell than he has Jeffrey Epstein.

Putting someone who’s on the list, in charge of revealing who’s on the list was never going to work. #showUsTheList

Literally the office of thoughts and prayers.

World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns

Safari tends to be hyper reactive to these things in my opinion but I assume they have reports of baddies trying to run hacks using mDNS .local networks? They recently stopped connecting to 0.0.0.0 for the similar reasons. I’m lucky I switched to using the .test TLD a while ago (as per RFC 2606).

Was it the “Nazi,” or the “f**k” I wonder?

Good doggie

people like to pretend malice doesn't exist bc it makes them, the pretender, feel better. superior. insulated.

but treating things as malice is not only usually more accurate, it's more effective:

Those who don't criticize the government have nothing to fear.

And to anyone thinking "impact is more important than intent"... that may be true in many/most cases... but saying this in relation to autism is placing blame on a disabled person for their disability.

New York Times headline reads “Trump Administration Live Updates: President Demands Walmart Keep Prices Low Despite Tariff Costs” over a journalistic photo of Trump walking past at night.

So the US President can decide what prices private businesses are allowed to charge? And the Republicans are cool with this? But they all still hate communism?

Thank you.

It’s good. Really, really good :)

If you think you know what autism is but your only reference is what you've seen on TV or your cousin's/sister's/neighbor's kid... there's a very good chance you're wrong.

I wasn’t aware of this, but I’ve just educated myself a bit on the subject and have to admit that I agree with you.

Can we *please* have Mr Booker on the Democratic presidential candidate’s slate at the next election? For crying out loud we need a fighter who can deliver the message. Thank you.

Doctor Who - Season 2: 3. The Well Far in the future, on a tough, brutal planet, a devastated mining colony has only one survivor. To discover the truth, the Doctor and Belinda must face absolute terror.

Caught up on Doctor Who and it was joyful to see Rose Ayling-Ellis playing Aliss. True representation front and centre

So glad the Beeb went with a Deaf actor and smoothly incorporated BSL & live caption tech into the episode

Really good episode. Worth a watch!

Apparently RFK is trying to walk back his bullshit comments by saying he doesn't mean autistics like *me* are bad and awful and need to be irradicated; no, he just wants to get rid of the "low functioning" autistics and let me just say FUCK THAT

I'm not more worthy of existing than autistics who 1/

All true but missing the point. As Selena Zito put it, the media (and liberals like me) need to take Trump seriously but not literally. His core supporters don’t care about failure–until it hurts them directly; they voted for the energy. Loudmouthed bravado wins them even if (or because) it’s wrong.

When I didn’t have “I’m autistic” I had “I need a minute”, “I don’t understand”.

I had a lot of ways to communicate my needs. Better than what to many is a vague medical label.

I was still autistic.

#AutismAcceptance means accepting all autistic people, not just ones with “certificates”.

This. Every time I consider writing in public lately, I know all my options will involve LLM leaches taking my work and turning it into slop to sell back to the same people I want to connect with. It’s incredibly demotivating. I assume this is true for all creative people at this point.
