@lilririah I wouldn't even care so much if using the word "autistic" didn't consistently summon NTs who want control over how an autistic person talks about themself or their own life.

For those who don’t remember Y2K... people think of it as a non-event. Nothing happened!

Do you know WHY nothing happened? Millions of hours of work, fixing code, poring over databases, information campaigns, etc. It *succeeded* so it seemed like nothing.

*gestures grandly*

Canadians, a few weeks ago, responding to #ShutDownCanada: all these Wet'suwet'en solidarity actions are inconvenient and hurting the economy. We can't just cancel everything to fix social problems.

Canadians, now, responding to #COVID19: #CancelEverythingNow #ShutDownCanada

Autistic blind folk are out here & it's important that they're able to choose what they want to be involved in.

@EAustin1969 @mattbc If anything, the privilege rich abusive parents have protects them from ever facing any consequences. They get to be a "good family" by default, so child services won't do anything unless it's blatant, and even then, they can easily afford to move to a different jurisdiction.

I live in a state that shuts everything down immediately if there's the slightest hint of snow, but during a pandemic, it's "Schools should maybe think of closing down soon, but you don't have to". Priorities.

@fantasmavoid Did they run a blockchain on you, and then not actually block you as well?

IQ tests are not only ableist towards folk who may score lower, but for folks who score higher, their high numbers will literally be used to deprive them of the care & resources that they need 😑🙄

@lnc0 Earthbound and Mother 3 both have a "crying" ailment that is functionally the same as "blind".

@photon_barrier There's a chance this one might have noticed but not said anything. But regardless, it's an expected part of the job that sometimes, your clients are going to talk about people you know.

@BathysphereHat Right, sure, I'm cis agender, so I was born with absolutely no reproductive system at all and never went through puberty. (/s)
