April is Autism Awareness Month

This April, remember that autism is a thing, and that Autism Speaks can ram their puzzle piece bullshit right up their collective shitter

@squirrel @alice@elekk.xyz although I suppose that would include being favourite easter bunny... main point, maple is best bun all year

@alice@elekk.xyz @squirrel isn't everyone's favourite easter bunny, @squirrel is everyone's favourite all year round bunny!

Happy atheist-kids-get-chocolate day everyone!

Or "Easter" if you're the religious type

april fools day reveal 

I'M AN OCTOPUS!

Y'ALL THOUGHT I WAS HUMAN! NOBODY SUSPECTED A THING!

@troubleMoney Americans have the same misconceptions about Canadians. They think we are polite and fail to parse the nuances of "sorry"

CAN: Sorry
US: Sorry

CAN: Sorry
US: Excuse me, you bumped into me/spilled my coffee/cut in line

CAN: Sorry
US: I'm about to take the last cookie and I'm not sorry at all

CAN: Sorry
US: MOVE, BITCH, GET OUT THE WAY, GET OUT THE WAY BITCH, GET OUT THE WAY

Considering my previous toot about English-American translations went absolutely woolly, here's some more:

British: "I hear what you say"
American: "You're wrong, shut up"

British: "With the greatest respect..."
American: "You're a fucking idiot"

British: "That's a very brave proposal"
American: "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING YOU LUNATIC"

British: "I would suggest..."
American: "You will do this or be sanctioned"

It's the end of the month, which means patreon plugging time!

Since I don't have one and @squirrel is far too modest I'm plugging hers

Maple is lovely and does various awesome things including running computerfairi.es! Which is also a year old on the 12th!

@squirrel *gives bun all the treats, especially wasabi peas and trail mix and various smol cheeses*

:thaenkin: if a group of mutual lovers were put in the same stuff as Han Solo was put in in Empire Strikes Back, would that make it polycarbonite?
