I'm AFAB with ADHD, not ASD, but same! Went to therapy for anxiety for years before one therapist finally realised I was ADHD.

He was exactly as bad as so many people said he would be. Never make an excuse for anyone who supported him.

We've seen our national tolerance for open racism, for cruelty, for corruption, for false equivocation. Not just the tolerance, but the enthusiasm. Trump didn't create it. It was there. He exploited it. We'll never become what we want to be if we don't admit what we are.

The Great American Forgetting Project starts today. They're going to simultaneously try to tell us the last four years were an aberration that is over, and that it never happened. And it's natural to want to forget these awful years. It's our moral duty not to.

And here’s the last page. I thought I would be feeling relief today, but instead I’m just sad.

One way you can celebrate and support ⁦@TheAmandaGorman⁩ is to pre-order her children’s book, “Change Sings.” Pre-orders are very important to authors for a variety of personal, professional, and financial reasons. Buy her book! 💫 penguinrandomhouse.com/books/634480/c…

Don’t smile because it’s over, cry because it happened.

Psyquiatry really made diagnostic criteria based on behaviors caused by symptoms instead of the actual symptoms, and then refused to listen to those who's clinical manifestation differs from the norm because other factors modify those behaviors. Such a perfect system 💫 /s

The next fascist will be smarter and better looking and more polite. Our job is not to wait for them to run for office and beat them, but to enact systemic change that makes them unviable.

my issue is immigration. ideally i would like open borders. i suggest everyone pick one issue to focus your energies on. call your reps about it. donate to organizations that push what you want. etc. it helps deal with all the overwhelming problems of the world
