Get as many hostages back as possible right now... to save Netanyahu's ass.

Claim a crisis... to provide Gazan civil war.

Claim saviorhood & send in troops... to justify continued extermination.

That's my fear. Not prediction. But my deep fear.

your thoughts?

About 400 or 500 in two different sites in Bedford, Indiana.

About 13,000 population.

Not bad.

@johnnyprofane1.bsky.social's work always makes me sit up and take notice.
This is crucial stuff. Please give him a listen and a share, if you are of a mind to.
It's important.

I'm 72.

And autistic as fuck.

Born 1953. Autistic day 1.

And I'm not even close to alone. Not even the oldest...

But working on it.

I'll give you some insight into my autism of 72 years...

I waited to like your post til today because after 7 decades living with humans?

I can't tell when i'm being mocked.

My bad, my friend. I hope you understand?

I am begging people to please seek out Autistic voices if you want to learn about autism. You will find that rather than wanting our lives to be prevented or cured, we want appropriate supports for ALL Autistic people (including those with intellectual disability and other co-occurring conditions).

I'm 72. Not part of any epidemic...

Just #ActuallyAutistic... since 1953.

Long before my first Tylenol. Or my mom's, for that matter.

@johnnyprofane1.bsky.social, shall you and I and your readers/listeners who're part of this demographic go school these clueless pieces of work?!?
We exist. We're just radically under diagnosed, whether it be formally tested or self diagnosis.

We exist & we're not broken, or a problem to be solved!

UFO Cult. Chooses Suicide. Thirty‑nine bodies in matching Nikes.

A short from a live reading—faith, grief, and what families do with impossible signs.

You bet!
I've got your new video of the spoken word piece all cued up in my watch later folder on YouTube so I can watch it tonight when I get home from work and can give it my full attention.
I know it'll be amazing!

Live Autistic Truth: "sneaking my mother's creepy g-d on high" Strong language about family, religion, control. From an autistic elder... badass.

Someone wrote: "I'm not sure if I've been a fly on the wall listening to your family, or if you've been the fly at mine."

Winter 1997. Me, drunk at family dinner, done masking to be normal.

Autistic truth-telling.

I can't recommend this highly enough.
The one from last Sunday moved me in ways that I wasn't ready for, but very much needed.

Mental health includes handling neurological differences.

Like not processing faces. Even those of your loved ones.

Sharing my experience of human connection beyond surface recognition.

FYI, this account is not me.
Based on their previews, I also highly suspect the autism books they’re promoting are AI - often nonsensical, repetitive, references appear to use real names but with made-up content, e.g. Hull, Mandy, & Petrides discussing quiche…

How would YOU communicate thru a short-circuiting transistor radio?

Plain language becomes revolutionary.

My live piece explores dancing close to the edge of the noise.
