This right here.
Happy cows come from Canada.😊 Neighbors here take VERY good care of their cattle. As a US citizen, ice cream, milk, etc, it's all better in Canada, and I'm even dairy intolerant.😅
So true. Hurt people hurt people. They blame everyone else for their own problems, or project their self-hatred/insecurities instead of asking WHY they hurt other people to make themselves feel better and work on healing their own trauma bc it's too uncomfortable. Self-awareness is HARD to come by.🤷♀️
Just a PSA, NEVER take on someone else's internal battle with themselves. No matter how hard they try to burden you by lashing out, their insecurities, their projections, their inability to maturely communicate is not YOUR responsibility or burden to bear. It's not your job to heal abusive people.✌
Bahaha EXACTLY. 🤣
We don't deserve dogs.😂
Oh nooo lol. I get wanting validation but I don't understand why people ask questions when they don't actually want a response, or at least an honest answer. Why even ask?🤦♀️ They could just say, I feel like this didn't come out very good or ask for support instead of fishing for compliments.
Right? I feel like way too many people were never taught what constructive criticism is or the purpose. They're not looking to improve or grow, just empty platitudes or validation. Which is fine and totally valid, but maybe just COMMUNICATE THAT? And give people genuine feedback when they ASK?
Right? Most NT just want be placated and given a pat on the back without ever SAYING that, when many ND actually want authentic, constructive feedback and are ignored even when we specifically ask for it.
Just going to leave these here. Ableism against Autistics and the ND community is a pervasive issue that does not get talked about enough. There are things all of us can do to communicate better, but always placing the burden on NDs to conform and accommodate without meeting us halfway is ableist.
Issues with communication and not understanding NT unspoken expectations or unspoken society rules are huge hallmarks of ND, specifically Autism, so I hope you can learn to listen to ND people as well as their valid experiences and concerns without dismissing the issue entirely. Be well.✌
It's literally discussed repeatedly in the post and comments, even when we ask specifically for detailed feedback, we're refused. We ARE ASKING for specifics, BUT NT are NOT, but we always have to accommodate??? You can say it as many times as you want but the comments prove otherwise. It's ableist.
OH MY WORD. THAT'S 100% ABLEIST. AND THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. Physically disabled can be ableist against ND, and vice versa. Or internally ableist. I won't be responding anymore but feel free to keep arguing. For the last time, please reread the post and comments as many times as you need. Be well.✌
I'm done responding and repeatedly explaining the original topic when it feels like people are intentionally changing the subject and refusing to consider ND concerns. There's not much else we can do when we go out of our way to change but people make rude assumptions and refuse to meet us halfway.✌
THAT'S NOT WHAT THE POST WAS ABOUT THOUGH, WAS IT???🤦♀️
That's already been discussed. REPEATEDLY. PLEASE RERESD THE POST AND COMMENTS.
Oh my word. PLEASE REREAD THE POST AND COMMENTS AS MANY TIMES AS YOU NEED. THAT'S THE WHOLE ISSUE WE'RE DISCUSSING.
So please stop acting like ND are being assholes when they're going out of their way to figure out how to get better clarification and make NT feel better bc NT are refusing to do it themselves in these situations. Again, PLEASE read OPs post and the comments as many times as is helpful.
Assuming ND are 'mean' or 'jerks' bc they thought someone wanted GENUINE FEEDBACK or failed to ASSUME that person just wanted a pat on the back or is bringing up a pervasive issue for ND is really ableist. ND have discussed repeatedly how to tackle this issue and better accommodate NT.
Again, that was the WHOLE POINT. Why are ND ALWAYS expected to adapt to make NTs comfortable, but NT are not when they refuse to just say what they want directly? There's a lot of ableism and infantilization in these assumptions and its incredibly problematic.
Why are ND expected to be 'specific' when they already are or communicate better, but NT are not, when they're repeatedly not and refuse to speak directly? This is called ableism. As is assuming ND are being 'rude or mean' by offering genuine feedback. Again, please reread OPs post and the comments.
It's NOT about ignoring rules for tact or thinking we don't have to accommodate society rules when that's ALL we've done our whole lives to make NT comfortable. That was the whole point of the post. And no one is using that as an excuse to be rude. NO IDEA where you're getting that from.
I think you need to reread OPs post and the comments. That's not at all what anyone is saying. The issue is even when we DO communicate directly, we're still ignored. The issue is we're expected to understand hidden meanings or unspoken rules or assumptions when people could just SAY WHAT THEY MEAN.
Please reread the post and all the comments as many times as you need. Again, this is sounding a lot like internalized ableism. I hope you're willing to ask yourself why it's okay to dismiss and ignore the experience of a majority of ND people, as well as core aspects of Autism and neurodivergence.
If I'm understanding you correctly, right, that's the whole problem. NT aren't just taught that when ND aren't, its a major difference in the way our brains work. Yes, sadly they don't see expecting ND to be mind readers as an issue, or assuming everyone wants placating validation like they do.
I would read all the comments by other neurodivergent folks here instead of just dismissing this issue. Feels like internalized ableism. AGAIN, yes, it applies to other situations, but that WASN'T THE POINT HERE. IT'S ABOUT COMMUNICATION BETWEEN ND AND NT. NT could actually just SAY WHAT THEY MEAN.
I literally just explained all of that. ND are expected to watch their tone, words, change how they behave, interpret unspoken rules, be mind readers, etc etc etc. Like I said, it occurs in other cases, but it is a PERVASIVE problem for ND folks when NT could just SAY WHAT THEY MEAN.🤦♀️
Right? You can repeat yourself til you're blue in the face or explain it a million different ways...I think they just don't care.
I think because NT usually just want validation rather than constructive feedback, they tend to assume everyone else wants the same even if they don't. And ND are assuming other people will appreciate genuine feedback when all they really want is a pat on the back.🤦♀️
As OP said, this is a pervasive problem for Autistic and neurodivergent folks where we're expected to be mind readers and interpret hidden meanings or lies and automatically know what NT want. Yes its an issue with unclear expectations, but thats BECAUSE of the difference between ND and NT here.
You're missing the point. This issue may come up in other situations but the post was *specifically* about communication difficulties between neurodivergent and neurotypical folks and how ND always have the burden of accommodation placed on them instead of neurotypicals just saying what they mean.
YUP 🙄
Lol for REAL.
Ugh yeah that's tough and disappointing. There's little things we can and should still do to help them but it feels impossible when we have so many policies and systems working so hard against us.
Exactly, though homelessness has been demonized all along. Ableism, capitalism, and exploitation of the lower classes have always been incredibly dehumanizing. It's just getting MUCH, MUCH worse.
Bahaha that's pretty great!
True, I go there often. I'm thinking they may be owned by the same company? Or use the same distributor? I've noticed they carry much of the same products but more variety in CA. Great Canadian Dollar Store, too but their prices seem a tad higher. A bit more like Dollar General etc in the US maybe.
Yeah that was a huge focus of Bernie's campaigns (among others such as Andrew Yang) but he was too 'radical' and hardly anyone paid attention.
It already is. Homelessness skyrocketed 18% nationwide just last year even though the stock market was doing 'incredibly well'. There are other statistics such as poverty level wages and income to consider as well.
There are actually a few good articles on this already, including how dollar stores and thrift stores are some of the only businesses that always see growth in a struggling economy.
More like three paychecks but YUP.
Exactly, I've been saying this for YEARS and it's mindblowing just how many people still disagree with this sentiment. Especially when homelessness skyrocketed 18% nationwide in the US last year even though the stock market was doing 'well'.🚩🚩🚩
When you realize just how many people deal with their issues, insecurities, and hatred by projecting them onto everyone else, you understand just how deeply unhappy most folks really are.
Finding a food supplement that supports full nutrition for bees is incredibly exciting! But for the love of all that is good can people please STOP using harmful pesticides? Those such as neonicotinoids reduce reproduction from 30-95%. This is not sustainable for pollinators, us, or the planet.
I hope you are willing to work on reading more carefully, communicating less aggressively, and making less assumptions about people you don't even know or their intent. Be well.✌
OP can correct me, but I'm guessing their statement was actually more about using ICE's own racist tactics against them, which you seem to have entirely missed. It would have been much more productive to ask and explain what you claim you MEANT to say rather than jump to conclusions+attacks.
Also, you have an extremely strange way of showing 'love' by telling Canadians to 'check themselves' and 'don't tell me' etc. when they literally never mentioned any of your assumptions. And yes, that is unnecessary and rude.
I didn't argue the 2nd amendment hasn't been misinterpreted.🤦♀️ I was pointing out your interpretation for individuals, along w/the common lack of understanding for its original purpose, is incorrect. Again, WHERE are you getting any of this? Please work on reading comprehension.
Violence will NEVER be my go to and I didn't even mention the US gun problem. Where are you getting all this??? And you seem to be a bit delusional thinking any of this will end peacefully considering what history sadly has taught us repeatedly, though I certainly hope it will.
You're making an incredible amount of assumptions here. I got that part, not at all what I was critiquing. Where did I even say that??? Please reread everything I wrote as many times as you need. And again, what exactly do you think is happening right now???
STORY OF MY LIFE. 😅🤦♀️
I mean your projection is wild. US citizens aren't allowed to criticize homegrown US fascism and racism, protest, etc? When liberals buy into the same white nationalism as MAGA and want to take away leftist free speech, that's incredibly problematic. I hope you examine why you feel that way.
You ok? You're making some absurdly false assumptions on my politics that I won't waste time explaining since its lost on most Americans. No one is denying the US has done good, but it has also committed/aided genocide, MANY TIMES, as well as everything else I listed. Please read more+do better.✌
No, its just reality+facts. White nationalist indoctrination runs DEEP even in liberals. I'd try reading a history book or talking to people outside the US sometime. I'd also work on asking yourself why confronting whitewashed propaganda on history+politics is so uncomfortable for you. Be well.✌
Getting personally offended and telling Canadians to 'check themselves' is really rich when they had zero part in causing this mess and can actually see it for what it is, unlike most Americans(MAGA, liberal, or otherwise). Let's maybe stop insulting allies and backtracking.🤷♀️🤦♀️
You don't see this ending w/another revolution/civil war? How exactly does a 'standing army' help US citizens when it's being mobilized AGAINST THEM? The right of the people to bear arms was intended to form militias against tyrannical governments. What exactly do you think is happening right now???
Well he's mostly correct in that assessment as well. The US has caused a huge amount of harm to people living there and across the globe, and done very little good. The US is a main contributor/perpetrator of colonization, racism, fascism, access to weapons, drugs, sex trafficking, famine, etc.🤷♀️
Sadly yes he is totally correct. Also does he 'despise America' or just all the racism and facism?
Where were they talking about the 2nd amendment or its interpretation AT ALL??? But yes actually, it does, it actually says that in the amendment about "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed" so that they CAN form militias against a tyrannical government.
Where did they bring that up at all??? But yes you could always apply for asylum and a sponsor as a political refugee due to the admin targeting the disabled, etc. But again, no need to be rude about his post when it wasn't even about that.
No need to be rude about his post, and as a US citizen, I def disagree with your interpretation of the 2nd Am. People are misunderstanding the INTENT, not the law itself. How exactly can citizens form militias against tyranny if the right of the people to bear arms is infringed in the first place???
NICE! And that's interesting. Yeah, could definitely be a weird color variant due to food sources or genetics too. Really cool.
Did you figure out which species specifically? Besides the color, the fins and tail look slightly different as well. I'm guessing Blueback or Blue King? But I'm not an expert by any means. Should ask my brother since he's the marine biologist lol.
Please reread what I wrote. Yes, sockeye do go through morphological changes such as turning red during mating but they(among most other species)are usually not THAT blue in the ocean, they are usually silvery-blue or silver, etc. It could be another species, genetic mutation, food sources, etc.
🤦♀️ Please reread my comments as many times as you need.
Please also actually read the source you provided btw.
Please reread what I wrote. I specifically wrote "depends on the species". And again, neither are THAT blue. Both species you mentioned are usually silvery-blue, blue-tinged, silver, or even brown or tan. Like I said, could be a different species, also a genetic mutation, food, or something similar.
That's a bit of misinformation. Depends largely on the species. Many do turn red and go through morphological changes for mating but most do not start out blue like this in the ocean. It's likely a distinct species, maybe Blueback Salmon or something of that sort.

Yeah, just look at the China Study.
He's definitely not the only one but yes, I hope more get on board. Most of the others already fighting fire with fire are BIPOC, women, or a mix of these and largely ignored despite their efforts.
I have to laugh thinking about family members or partners constantly telling me I shouldn't have so many tabs open on my computer at one time(maybe 10 max) and I was always like...do you realize how many tabs I have open in my BRAIN at any given minute though???😅🤣
💯 A little public shaming goes a long way.
As well as our finest educators, because university systems are so incredibly predatory here. They're built on unpaid labor and exploitation. They push the narrative that 'success' is the direct result of how much bullsh*t you're willing to put up with, symptomatic of ableism and capitalist greed.
100%. Grad school, and often undergrad, have a way of making you lose all interest in topics you were once incredibly passionate about and its so sad. I see so many students disillusioned by academia, gatekeeping, lack of resources, funding, financial burden, etc. We're losing our finest students.
Riiiight? More helpful tips available if anyone is interested.😅
You mean the folks that make mental gymnastics an Olympic sport? Because yes, the denial and delusion is mindblowing.🤯
Get you a bird hunting dog or hound and a gun. Can fight off the purge with both but also get food when society collapses. More helpful tips available.😅✌
You needed this video... You're welcome... 😊 #dog #dogday #bluesky
Holy cow do I feel you on that. It's so disappointing and dehumanizing. Actively doing everything I possibly can to just stay away from that whole mess. One thing I do not want in my house is an angry man, and I sure as hell won't ever make excuses for that BS.
Happy Lammas/Lughnasadh.🙂🌻 Protect agriculture and migrant workers and the rights of those who bring food to your table. And let's not forget the pollinators.✌
This Lammas/Lughnasadh remember those who do the actual harvesting. Protect migrant workers. Protect those racially profiled. Donate. Protest. Speak out. Mutual Aid. Collectively we must hold those in power accountable. #witchsky #pagansky #witchmadness
Right? And it's very likely being served to rich white train passengers as well.😬
RIGHT? I just keep thinking about being stuck in Unfinished Business Ghost Purgatory like...ohh...oh nooo.😬 Poltergeists over here just trying to get that damn To-Do list done.😅🤦♀️
Now I'm gunna have that song stuck in my head for DAYS.🤣🤣🤣
Uh, I definitely did need this video, and now I need MORE.😅
Just realized I'm going to end up as a ghost solely on account of how much I hate unfinished business.😅😬
