sesame street, autism advocacy, anti-autism, medicalization (---)
Sesame Street has given up working with ASAN to work with Autism Speaks instead. https://autisticadvocacy.org/2019/08/asan-has-ended-partnership-with-sesame-street/
Excerpt from the linked open letter:
====
For several years, ASAN consulted with Sesame Street on their See Amazing project and the development of their autistic character, Julia. Until this summer, the content Sesame Street produced showed parents that their autistic children could live great lives, and taught autistic and neurotypical children ways to become friends. Through this approach, See Amazing successfully encouraged the inclusion of autistic children in their communities, and had a widespread positive impact.
Sesame Street has now decided to undo that progress. Its latest PSAs featuring Julia promote Autism Speaks’ “Screen for Autism” initiative and their resource for parents of newly-diagnosed autistic children, the 100 Day Kit. Like much of Autism Speaks’ recent advertising, these PSAs use the language of acceptance and understanding to push resources that further stigma and treat autistic people as burdens on our families. The 100 Day Kit encourages parents to blame family difficulties on their autistic child (“When you find yourself arguing with your spouse… be careful not to get mad at each other when it really is the autism that has you so upset and angry”) and to view autism as a terrible disease from which their child can “get better.” It recommends compliance-based “therapies” and pseudoscientific “autism diets,” but fails to educate families about communication supports. It even instructs parents to go through the five stages of grief after learning that their child is autistic, as they would if the child had died.

Wife packed up our non-perishables, and couldn't remember what they were called so labelled the box Dry Groceries.

4) so my first real fursona is Purranda! I made a badge of her for my first furcon this last year. She's a black cat with an affinity for teal
3) I like how generally accepting furries are of lgbtqa+ folks and neurodiversity. I don't feel the need to hide parts of my identity when talking to furries.
2) I first discovered furries back in my deviartart days. I came across a lot of comics with anthropomorphic animal characters, and really liked the look.
I guess I can also cite Disney, lol.
I saw a few fursuiters at cons and thought they were neat.
1) So I've always kinda liked anthros, but I struggled to identify as a furry for a long time. I jokingly act like a cat a lot of the time around friends and loved ones, but it was only after making a game with anthro characters last year that I felt comfortable calling myself a furry. I went to my first fur con too and had a great time!

You come to my pocket camp on the day of my daughters wedding and you ask me for a bug
Crush, Unrequited feelings?
Asked my crush if she would have me over and show me one of her favourite films sometime, she said she'd like that.
I've already confessed that I have feelings for her, and she seems cool with it, but hasn't said anything else since then.
I just want to hold her and make her feel valued. She's been treated so horribly and I want her to know she's worth so much more. My chest hurts when I think about her and I want to cry knowing people have thrown her away.

Housing, Apt Hunting, Stress
Woooooooof. Seeing a place today that's well within our budget but I hope it's nice! It's above a restaurant, so that may come with challenges.
We're really getting down to the wire, and I'm getting pretty stressed about it. We need a new place by Aug 14, and I'm kinda freaking out.
