In the past 24 hours I’ve been told:

To go to the gas chambers

That I’m a predator

That I take advantage of marginalized autistic people in order to profiteer

To β€œstop pretending to be autistic” to infiltrate the Left to promote Zionism

That I brainwash people

That I killed Jesus

That I’m an FBI agent spying on autistic people

That I’m β€œdramatic” and β€œlying”

That I’m toxic

That I have no right to work as a coach to my community

To die

Most of this from my beloved #ActuallyAutistic community. It’s horrific.

Some people feel the need to express their hate, frustration, rancor, and bad will on those with a platform. I understand that. I understand where this comes from. We can often stay steadfast in our thoughts, even if misguided. I wish them well and hope they’ll get help.

I will not stop speaking out against antisemitism. I will not stop advocating for autistic people. I will not stop working with the autistic community. But I will be less active here for a few days. Need to protect myself from baseless and shameless hate. Thank you all πŸ’™πŸ™πŸΌ

Bed Bath & Beyond has filed for bankruptcy shortly after spending $1B in stock buybacks & cash payments to shareholders. Employees of 20 years got 0 notice & $0 severance.

It wasn't inflation. It wasn't labor cost. It is 100% corporate greed.

Tax billionaires. Unionize workers. Protect our economy.

I don't like to get too political but neo-Nazis like #TuckerCarlson getting fired from their jobs is objectively good and should happen all the time until our society makes it profoundly clear that if you are a neo-Nazi you have no future and everyone should hate you.

”Employees are expected to comply with this dress code in a manner consistent with their biological #gender.”—#Texas Department of #Agriculture memorandum

Ag Dept employees received an unwelcome surprise in a new dress code issued last week that seems aimed at oppressing #transgender and #nonbinary workers, reports Digital Editor Kit @oconnell based on a document leaked to us:

BREAKING: Satan has been FIRED from his job at Evil News. Everyone have a great day.

I'm completely freaking out a co-worker by using chopsticks left-handed. Apparently that's a sign of something evil in her culture. Sorry, can't use them right-handed.

Agree.
I told many of my patients that some families need to be escaped from.

Teddi is Queen of the Three-Quarter Sploot. No doggo does it better. So there. #dogs #sploot #DogsOfMastodon

And for anyone pointing to the drop in Fox stock as evidence that firing Carlson is a big deal, may I remind you that that stock market is a giant plutocrat mood ring. It doesn't reflect reality, at all, it just tells you how rich people feel about the world at any given moment.

moscow has come under blistering attack at the #UN over its unprovoked invasion of #Ukraine

As lavrov, who assumed the rotating presidency of the 15-member Security Council, led a meeting on "effective unilateralism," the UN chief, along with the U.S., U.K., French, and Japanese ambassadors, subjected him to harsh condemnation over his country's aggression against Ukraine, accusing moscow of atrocities and of "trampling" the UN Charter.

Remember. The first draft of your writing will be raw. It’ll be unsubtle, cumbersomely worded, and full of cliched writing and random mistakes. But that’s fine. We do not give up on cooking a meal just because the ingredients are raw when we start.

@ScottSoCal I hired a professional reader once who didn't tell me they were a silent reader who only mouthed the words.

I'm looking to hire a spokesperson who can say words I have trouble pronouncing like anathema or February.

With Tucker out at Fox I can now think back fondly to the segments he did about me and my team when I was running Snopes and the years of death threats that followed. Hope he's having a really shitty day

Posted this before but it had a cat hair on it!!!! Now the sun is gone and I can't get a good picture so here's a bad picture of some art. :blobfoxpleading: :bunhdgoogly:
