Hey, men who are with women. Ever say things like…

“Have you seen the …”
“Tell me what to do and I’ll do it”
“But I do so much around here”
“Why didn’t you ask me to do it?”
“I do more than my friends”
“Let me know if I can help”

Then let’s talk about mental load. 1/

I’m old enough to remember when 615 daily covid deaths would have meant a lock down or at least some restrictions. That was yesterday’s number, not reported and we are cracking on like it never happened…

This also applies to the child only eating fries/cheese/cereal. Give them the fvcking food that they can eat without any drama or shaming. There’s no need for moralistic ‘healthy food’ ideology. Feed the child their safe foods. It’s a hungry child. Feed it!

9/ Far better to stay within those bedroom walls. Computers are predictable.

They are the only structures that make sense for many of us.

[Sam Connor @criprights]

14/ The next time you are tempted to yell at your autistic kid to get off that damned computer, hug them instead.

Because that kid is a motherfucking hero for still sucking air in a world where we know and are reminded daily that we don’t belong.

[Sam Connor @criprights]

Let me try and explain to you why your autistic child spends so much time in their room in front of that damned computer.

Its because it’s safe. It’s because they have control over that space like in no other part of their life.

A MOTHERFUCKING THREAD.

I’ll never be able to fathom how thousands in taxpayer money was spent by this government to take me and my friends to court. But soon we’ll be voting. We’ll be the lawyers sitting adjacent to them in court. We’ll be running for their seats. They won’t forget our names.

Well sure would be helpful if I posted the actual link 🤦‍♀️ https://t.co/hGbhIrBtkU

I am absolutely terrified of another LNP term of government. I’m trying to maintain the possibility that life can get better for people like me. Voting can change lives. Please help!

Hey ALP and Liberal Party,

I did a housing shortage and affordability policy for you. Here it is, and you're welcome:

[Rachel @MsRachelWendy]

@FnFeminist Thank you. Yes I find it strange that people are ignoring the risks and just choose to believe they’ll be fine! I guess it comes from the belief that being healthy is moral more than luck or something 🤷‍♀️🤯

[Rachel @MsRachelWendy]

I’m having a hard ME/CFS day today. Shaking and foggy before 10am. By the time I got home from taking my kids to their things I couldn’t walk without holding on to the walls and chairs. I don’t have it as ‘bad’ as others.
It blows my mind that anyone would risk ‘long COVID’

[Rachel @MsRachelWendy]

@JoannaNoBanana You are not lazy. Stop measuring yourself against others.

[Rara 😷 @Rara30585698]

@annatime94 @NSWHealth And unfortunately the treatment offered, namely graded exercise, is known to cause harm to people with MECFS (which many w LC will develop). Not only opening the risk but then making life worse for the unlucky LC patients through outdated treatments. #changetheguidelines @RACGP

@RosenrotLiebe87 @SNeurotypicals Yes!! Our family motto is ‘words are hard!’ (2 kids and 1 adult all autistic) it’s our go-to phrase which I guess an outsider wouldn’t get cause we are also super verbal/ large vocabulary/ articulate speakers - but also it’s not always easy and sometimes we’re nonverbal 🤷‍♀️😅
