So in the episode Hank passes up a qualified woman for a job and hires a drug addict instead. He finds out and tries to fire him but the ADA prevents him from doing so as he's in rehab. Then other employees feign disability and nothing gets done. Hank eventually quits to reduce the amount of employees so the business doesn't qualify for ADA protections and so they fire the guy.

So basically the moral of the episode was don't discriminate based on gender cuz then you might have to provide for disabled folk. Wildly simplified but yikes BIG YIKES. Mike Judge is one big ol piece o shit yo.

if ur sad, remember girls exist

purple is a big transfemme color because boy clothes are basically never purple, so I'm like immediately 50% more femme wearing purple

Dune 2: Spice on Earth

i dont think i need to tell anybody here this, but if you and another person knew a trans person pre-transition and you use their deadname in private with eachother because "it's more convenient" you do in fact suck ass, as a person, and are made of garbage

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.
