At the very least didn’t that movie pressure major chains to provide nutrition facts about their products?

Ahh but it was the uneducated masses who needed some guy to tell them that burgers and fries were unhealthy. /s

I hate April Fool’s Day so much. I’ve already gotten got several times.

Okay but the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz wants a brain. That’s zombie behavior!

Two more days until the most anti-autistic holiday aside from maybe Fourth of July fireworks.

Fly high lil buddy

Hisss

Every once in a while you remember a bit of propaganda you used to believe, courtesy of the American education system, and wince. I remember learning that the Monroe Doctrine was the US protecting the other countries in the Western hemisphere from European imperialism. What a joke.

Sun Wukong fries himself in oil for fun, so he’d probably have some first hand experience.

Reddit drama would be so much less for stuff like the amazing digital circus if the subreddits just banned stuff from twitter

They beat a blind refugee who speaks no English for failing to obey police commands he could not understand. Then instead of apologizing, they charged him with possession of a “weapon”—HIS WALKING STICK. Then they dumped him miles from home without notifying anyone, after which he was found dead.

From Variety interview with John Davidson: "StudioCanal were working closely with BAFTA, and BAFTA had made us all aware that any swearing would be edited out of the broadcast. I have made four documentaries with the BBC in the past, and feel that they should have been aware of what to expect from Tourette’s and worked harder to prevent anything that I said — which, after all, was some 40 rows back from the stage — from being included in the broadcast. As I reflect on the auditorium, I remember there was a microphone just in front of me, and with hindsight I have to question whether this was wise, so close to where I was seated, knowing I would tic."

John Davidson thought his tics would not be audible during the BAFTA/BBC broadcast and says in this interview that there was a mic placed in front of him: variety.com/2026/film/aw...

It’s probably too much to hope that the movie “I Swear” will have an open captioned showing near me.

Yeah is bad. I’m probably gonna cancel my subscription once I finish a Crown of Candy watch through with a community member.

from all sides. Looks like the TS community is gonna have to go at this alone, and we need to do it by centering black TS voices. 3/3

I’m feeling awful with so many disabled folks I respect being so ableist towards folks with tics, it makes me never want to go out in public again. I can only imagine how much worse it feels for someone with coprolalia—especially black folks with coprolalia who are taking hits 2/

I hide from the world a lot. Partially because shit is so scary and I’m so disabled that I can’t help. But also because I’m a fat person with a motor tic in my neck that makes me hunch my back. I’ve never gotten shit for it yet because I don’t feel safe or want to go outside. 1/

Really struggling today with the BAFTA stuff. A lot of disabled folks I respect are being really ignorant and it hurts. First step, I need to get off Twitter. There’s a reason I left.

I’d watch this isekai

Hopped back on Twitter for the first time in months to get twitchyspoonie’s take on the BAFTAs situation and was not disappointed. I also need to find more black Tourette’s folks on Bluesky and Youtube—the ones I want to follow are on Twitter and Tiktok.

Trying come come up with a term for someone who isn’t adhd. Autistics have “allistic” but idk anything for adhd folks—maybe nadhd? Anyone have any other ideas?

Hang in there Nyx 💜

For all of you who kept quiet when Wes Streeting banned puberty-blockers for trans kids because you believed the pseudoscientific Cass Review. This is what happens if we let them remove healthcare from one group.

Read the poem, it applies to healthcare also.

4 frame comic. it reads, on top of each frame : Give trans kids a chance to be kids without having to fight for the right to exist. first frame shows a kid playing soccer, second shows two kids drawing dinosaurs at a table, third shows a group of friends sitting by a fountain drinking bubble tea and eating chips, fourth shows a kid with long curly hair holding a trans flag.

Give trans kids a chance to be kids.
