Confused about person-first language? Is it acceptable or not? Here's a brief history on PFL and how it went from etiquette to ableism: #pfl#ableism#acutallyautistic
I've been asked to share accounts of advocates who are #AutisticWhileBlack. In making my recommendations, I realized how many of us have stepped back due to harassment. Do y'all know how real this is? There are so few of us to begin with.

@anijen21 @kittynouveau My spouse wasn’t texting me because they wanted to show off, they were texting me because they were bored and uncomfortable. They still grumble about how terrible their bachelor party was whenever the topic comes up.
My point: if the bachelor party worries the bride, 🚩 🚩
@anijen21 @kittynouveau “an attempt to show other people that you are a good person, for example by expressing opinions that will be acceptable to them, especially on social media. The expression is often used to imply that the virtue being signalled is exaggerated or insincere.”
@anijen21 @kittynouveau *shrug* No one forced them to text me all night and in the twenty plus years I have known them they have never had any interest in strip clubs. It’s not virtue signaling if it’s honest and true.
@PhilipsCare Yep like a year ago or something. Called and got told September MAYBE? How can you recommend people discontinue a needed medical device and make them wait this long. Philips is not prioritizing their customers health.
@PhilipsCare You recalled my spouse’s CPAP a very long time ago. We are still waiting on a replacement. Is Philips ever going to replace it? We can’t afford a new one. The one we got from you was damned expensive.
@anijen21 @kittynouveau Such an excellent pre marital test though. I got constant tests from my spouse on the bachelor night. “Oh no my brothers are taking me to a strip club. Help.” “This is the saddest thing ever I don’t like watching my brothers get chubbies to single moms who need cash” etc
@the_Yt_Sheep@marlene4719 My Dad was the sweetest most loving father and very physically affectionate. Hugging and kissing were daily in our household. Never any hint of sexual content.
…Never took any photos like that.
Dad is dead now but he would think these creepy.
