Hey, here’s a concept. What if we stopped saying “but autistic people CAN do all those things” (erasing high support needs) and instead started saying “not being able to do those things doesn’t impact someone’s value as a person nor does it make it okay to commit eugenics”.
Fuck.
Looking more like a checklist these days. I want off this ride. 😭
I hate the "higher price = better food" logic. It is SO classist/elitist.
Paying more for fancy labels and acting like you're above fast-food/takeout doesn't do anything to help working-class people who literally cannot allocate that much of their budget to "clean eating". for every single meal they eat. Who can't afford things fancier than CostCo.
It's just giving people an excuse to look down on others and act like they're better than those who can't afford that lifestyle. (Nutritionists and dietitians who use teachings from 30+ years ago and are guided by white supremacist "health" rules, I'm looking at you)
But wait!! There's more!!
I also hate how obsessed people are with calories. High-calorie food does NOT mean unhealthy food.
As somebody who was raised in a "low-calorie, high food value" household...it's bullshit.
Low calorie, mostly plant based meals aren't good for everyone. And I'm tired of pretending that they are.
Anyways, I'm gonna go eat my fast food and high calorie protein and carbs now.

You want to call your House rep now and tell them Trump needs to be impeached immediately for defying a Supreme Court order (re: Kilmar Abrego Garcia), which functionally voids our constitution and means no one in America has rights anymore.
I am not exaggerating.
As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.
This is not a drill.
Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.
Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).

As an APD-haver who also enjoys hip-hop and grew up listening to the greats, I concur.
Don't lump it all in with the gangsta rap (that genre is usually the rap equivalent of pop music and is not to be treated as an example)
Do those people who say “I don’t like rap because of my auditory processing issues” know that they can look up lyrics? Do they know that they can enjoy the beat and the mixing and the cadence of the artist even if they can’t parse out what the words are quite yet? Like I know that it’s a way to try and absolve themselves of racism by playing the disability card, but like, as someone who also has auditory processing issues, you don’t need to understand every word on first listening to appreciate the musicality. And then there are very easy ways to learn the lyrics afterwards.
