The fix is people muting autonomous groups they aren't part of

@Studio10au you realise that the youngest millennials are 25 right?

@DanielAndrewsMP closing hydrotherapy pools is extremely hard on the people who rely on them to treat medical conditions. Even closing them for 5 days can cause a decline in a person's health that requires months to recover from

@abcmelbourne Any info on single person bubbles for people who live alone?

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@abcmelbourne what's the situation for people living alone? Any single person bubbles?

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@rarings @emeryetc Maybe in a week, I have 3 exams next week

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@rarings @emeryetc I think you have misunderstood what I said and then it snowballed. It's frustrating when people assume tone or subtext into your words when there isn't any. And I guess I thought you specifically would get that if I tried explaining but apparently not

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Ok sorry about that, I should not have assumed that you shared the opinion of the person who was cis-splaining stuff to me

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Yes, but that doesn't mean it isn't tricky.

And like, does such a thing as a universal autistic experience even exist?

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Anyway, I need to stop using spoons on this. Y'all were so used to looking for people disagreeing with you that you read that into my words. I know what that's like.

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Like not just that stuff but it's a start

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Describing the experience of sexism that is also anti-trans because it only exists because you are read as a woman. And how so many things you read about autism and misogyny only talk about women so you can't even be sure if you are autistic or not because you are not a woman

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Ok my bad I just reread your tweet and didn't realise you said that the words themselves are terf-y. Please also give my initial tweet another read because I did not say the things you are saying I said

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Like read my first tweet again, I literally said they were shitty, and if I had had a chance would have said in a further reply that in my opinion they're equally bad (as in the female autism and afab autism terms)

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings I literally just said I thought using "afab autistic" is shitty and that I find it tricky to describe my experiences due to lack of widely available words that work.

[inquisitive spirit @inquiringghost]

@emeryetc @rarings Hey, I only have a problem with you if you're trying to put words into my mouth. And especially have a problem if you if you are calling me a terf for things I have not said
