Another @redhat employee (who labeled me as a clickbait influencer) tried to pull a "gotcha" saying I "personally benefit immensely" from AWX, citing my YouTube video.
I made $500 from that video. And I wrote the literal AWX Operator Red Hat maintains.

so important !! there is no such thing as “high/low functioning autism” #actuallyautistic
Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.

This morning's Boomer News headline:
"Dubbed the "Great Regression", more adults across the world are beginning to embrace kid-like or adolescent behaviour."

Hi folks, I’m afraid it’s time for me to say goodbye. Not just leaving Twitter, but the whole show. I’ve been battling cancer last 2 years, but now only have a few days left now. Thank you wonderful people, I leave this crazy world with much love in my heart ❤️
Twitter is done like the dishes.
Time invested here feels like sunk cost at this point. Those of us who nurtured friendships and careers will have to move on.
Reminder that disabled people exist 365 days a year and one social media post on International Day Of People With Disability does not level out your other 364 of silence, ableism, harassment and discrimination.
Be constant or don’t be there at all.
False activism helps no one.
@wbm312 Cheese and crackers! I saw what happened today, I'm speechless because I *used* to respect them as a creator. I got into infosec from electronics and radio comms as a teen in the 90's, and I had no technical issues with your thread. Sending happy thoughts your way.
Be careful saying “I don’t mind, do whatever you prefer” to an autistic person. They probably *will* do what they prefer. If that’s what you intend, awesome, but if what you’re hoping for is that they will say “I don’t mind, what would you prefer?”, you might end up disappointed.
taxi driver started telling me a story about ‘a girl with autism but only in half her body. Half of her was normal and the other side of her body doesn’t work at all.”
I told him that wasn’t autism and he goes ‘nah it definitely was, she was keen on trains’
HELP 💀
