When is slavery acceptable? NEVER.
I know you agree @repzoelofgren@SenAlexPadilla@SenFeinstein. Support the reintroduction of the Abolition Amendment to #EndTheException in the 13th Amendment and abolish slavery, for all.
No slavery. No Exceptions. https://t.co/eE8NVuHpoZ
Please share so everyone gets it: A welcoming home is somewhere I can feel safe while being my authentic self. No one should have to hide who they are in somewhere they call home. #WelcomeMe#FairHousingMatters https://t.co/wCHBVz0kmB
@thjustme81 @truthisjustice2 @DaviSense@MarieSnyder27 In America or areas where there was fighting? My mom went to middle & high school in the Midwest during WWII and her education was excellent.
@DaviSense These children have lost guardians, advocates, parents thru the toll illness and death have taken. The press assumes it was isolation and distance learning and ignores all other probabilities.

@ekverstania@keristars@IMissCarrie I have to use the stuff with an antifungal if I go too long without washing, or if I use sulfate free shampoo for more than a couple of days, because stuff grows in the sebum if I don't clean it off. If I wash my hair dailyish, it's fine.
When I care about something someone is saying, I reply my favorite catchphrases. Why? Because that’s how I express my emotions.
When I care about something someone is saying, I relate it to my special interests. Why? Because that is how I understand the social world around me.
As Autistic folks spend energy smiling, nodding, forcing eye contact, and suppressing stims in order to "prove" that we are listening, we lose energy to actually process spoken information.* (Steward, M.A.) We generally can't listen as well as we could be our Autistic selves.
I show that I care by echoing people’s words or by dancing or clapping. I might go up to a person share a fact that I discovered after researching a topic they told me about several hours or days before.
Every person, Autistics included, has a unique way of communicating nonverbally. Still, many Autistics express ourselves through stimming, echolalia & catchphrases, succinct speaking, and follow-up conversations (after processing time.) This differs from many non-autistics.
