CN: covid, agoraphobia
One thing we haven't seen many people talk about is how this pandemic has been detrimental to many of us people with agoraphobia. In fact, we've seen the opposite, we've seen claims of us agoraphobics being "lucky".

Now that we’ve all watched #HappiestSeason, our team got together to talk about Aubrey Plaza, bringing partners home for the holidays for real, Aubrey Plaza, Kristen Stewart’s suits, the whiteness of the film, what worked (Aubrey Plaza), and what didn’t. https://t.co/abPkPjXoRy
I don’t get the fitness blog that starts with “You’re fine just the way you are” and then says “I just lost 38 pounds—welcome to my journey!” It’s the self-acceptance bait and switch
“During the summer of 2020, I spent countless hours helping irate customers cancel their orders of popular anti-racism books.”

Don't take anything personally. What someone else does is not because of you, it's a projection of their values. It has nothing to do with you, it's a physical expression of them.
No one should have to tell Sia or Hollywood in general not to cast neurotypical actors to play neurodivergent characters. There is no excuse for it other than to convey the message that neurodivergent individuals are incapable of “acting”(which is the harm of ableism)
