Lol what kind of loser replies to the same bot six times? If I'm a bot, then you're a fucking idiot for continuing to argue with me. In any case, I think you'll find that a bot would be happier to ingest a state's entire constitution than a human with better shit to do.

Yep, no chance. My ex is Jewish, Israeli, the grandchild of Holocaust survivors and as a Jewish Studies professor was constantly accused of antisemitism because she was an anti-Zionist. The waters are so muddied by bad faith actors on the Right that it's impossible to call out genuine antisemitism.

Disagreeing with everything he says isn't a personal vendetta. It's disagreeing with everything he says, and because he's a big account and says a bunch of stupid shit, he gets a lot of comments on the bullshit he espouses. He spends more time punching left than right.

Left wing subcultures are very pleasant and totally functional if you don't have opinions diametrically opposed to left wing beliefs. You find them unpleasant because they reject your pissweak liberal beliefs and stomp them into the ground forcefully in a way that embarrasses and humiliates you.

Psychiatrists are funny. You tell them how much you mask. They say “so your autism is under control – you don’t need help or support”. Masking is not recovery. It’s survival. Because of this rhetoric and these people. To call that “under control” is violence.

It's made me determined to break the habit, to let myself stim, walk weirdly when I'm excited, let my body do what it wants, say the things I want to say, spin around and flap my fucking hands if the impulse hits, make little noises that make me feel better. It's inspiring. Masking isn't the answer.

Always hated "PIN number", "ATM Machine" etc, but someone here made the argument that the redundancy adds clarity at basically zero cost and I was immediately sold on that idea. But there is (or was) a restaurant in Sydney called "MG garage" - MG stands for Morris Garage, and that I can't forgive.
