In case you missed the discussion around the term #Neurospicy, a significant portion of the neurodivergent community has very clearly expressed that the term is offensive for them and rooted in racial othering.

I admit I’ve used the term previously as well, rather recently even, and initially…

@lovettejallow.bsky.social on Bluesky β€œWill my nonspeaking autistic child ever speak?” is a search-bar question. Under it sit two fears: fear for the child’s future, and fear of how family will interpret the child. Speech becomes proof of β€œgood parenting.” The child becomes a performance. #autism #nonspeaking

"In the current political climate, it is no longer responsible for me to assume that public-facing platforms are neutral or that visibility is always benign. US- based platforms, including Substack, operate under US law. While Substack offers far more autonomy and safety than many mainstream social media platforms, it is still part of an American legal and surveillance environment."

This is fraught with loss
(for me in my own corner of using a pseudonym) but it's also validating to see others I respect and learn from comfirm the the choice is valid and unfortunately warranted. I'm grateful they'll still be sharing as it creates community; something I'm still trying to build in my life again.

I think finding way to fight back against fascism might be a good way to start.

Deezer has a tool now that can detect AI music. They're making it available.

The current training method of AI music is poisoned by the codec signature.

Platforms can choose to end this, at least for now.

The first four commandments turns some people into bullies by using subliminal messaging.

#Discover #Psychology #PsychSciSky #Bullies #Bible #God
The first four biblical Commandments send subliminal messaging to people susceptible to suggestion to be like the Bible God; who is portrayed as a bully. Once you know this, you understand why so many bullies became bullies in the first place.

When you have the freedom of religion, and a bunch of nutters willing to set up their own β€˜churches,’ and then those β€˜churches’ take over one of two major political parties (because the separation of church and State in the US has not been viable since the Reagan era), you get this …
