If people think Maria Corina Machado, the choice for the peace prize, was a great victory for the left, think again: She's a huge Netanyahu supporter, loves Trump, supports dictators. She dedicated her Nobel award to Trump! Still glad Trump didn't get the award (that would be ridiculous). But wtf?

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

I will not be reacting to what The Orange Men have to say about autism. It is ridiculous. At some point you gotta stop repeating your opponent's absurd claims, even if only to refute them, and get back on message. Autism is a normal occurrence among humans; autistic people are worthy.

I'm going to the Portland NO KINGS peaceful protest on Oct. 18th. Everyone against the Trump dictatorship & his authoritarianism should go if they can. Events are scheduled all over the U.S. Find one that's near you at the link below. Please help make this a historical turnout. www.nokings.org

I'm gonna say this for the millionth time, for the people at the back: Everyone who cares about civil rights, human rights, justice, democracy, fair elections, and is anti-dictatorship is "antifa". We're all antifa in #Portland #PortlandIsNotBurning #ICE

Have I mentioned how much I love the people and vibe that is Portland? I wish I felt free to be the kind of weird that they naturally bring to the table just because it's Wednesday!

A fight over who can sue over election rules could have chaotic consequences for the next election.

Ever wonder why conspiracy theories seem to spread faster than facts? In our latest article, @pennngg.bsky.social student Emma Noel explains how our brain’s reward systems and social nature fuel belief in conspiracy theories. pennneuroknow.com/2025/10/07/w... #PsychSciSky #SciComm 🧠🟦 🧪

Five years ago, @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social and I did a story about rural Oregon's fever dream that Antifa was coming to their town from Portland. Hundreds showed up armed downtown because they heard on Facebook that "Antifa buses" were coming. No buses came so they said Antifa "retreated."

Trump just signed an order designating "Antifa" as a terrorist organization. Now he'll use any convenient tattoo, sign or clothing to label protestors and activists as "antifa" so they can be assaulted and arrested by officers. Antifa is just an abbreviation for "antifascist".

If you are doing a massive amount of research to figure out if you are Autistic … 1) Make sure to read up on Autistic Analysis Paralysis then … 2) Look in the mirror. 3) Repeat steps 1 & 2 as necessary.

Someone wrote this on a log that crosses my daily walking path through the forest, & on the sidewalk nearby. This is extremely offensive. Don't violate the quiet forest. The forest is like a sacred place to me. It calms me, restores me. As an #autistic I need refuge from the world of ppl. 1/

honestly, kudos to him for this

Ominous: Trump's DOJ wants to prosecute state election officials who, to put it in simple terms, don't do what Trump admin tells them. Y'all, we're there: we've crossed over that line into a burgeoning authoritarian regime. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

These horrors of humanity passed #BigUglyBill. I'm dismayed, shaking my head. I was once on medicaid, received SNAP benefits, had to go to food banks. My god, all the people who will be cut off, with hospital closings, etc. I loath these fascists with every fiber in my body.

Asking autistics/AuDHDers: Do you vividly remember microtrauma, painful moments like embarrassment, rebuke, errors, rejection, hurtful events, which come tumbling into your brain in the middle of the night, but otherwise your memory of other things isn't that great? I'm sincerely asking.

The Trump administration is an extremely serious level of threat to all humans & to all life on the entire planet. I call upon the planetary immune system (if there is one) to be activated to counteract Trump (and his overall rabidness & recklessness) as a threat to all life.

Good summary of how autistic sensory sensitivity isn't always about "too loud".

They probably went around identifying plants, herbs, etc. Oh, and birds. Apparently a lot of bird watchers (who love to create detailed lists of all the various birds they've seen) are autistic.

This is so nicely done. After all these years I'm still working on self-acceptance, after a childhood full of rejection and feeling unloved, unappreciated, unworthy. #autistic

I've been called unapproachable, stuck-up, hard to get to know, too direct, blunt, aloof, honest to a fault, perfectionistic, too focused on details, but no one ever called me autistic. Most people I interacted with never saw me up close to see how I live my life. Can anyone relate?

I saw a protest sign carried in Los Angeles ICE protests that read: "If you've asked yourself what *you* would have done if you were in Germany during Hitler's fascist rise to power, this is the answer." So true.

One thing this Trump era is proving more blatantly than ever before is just how deeply fascistic and authoritarian the GOP has always been at its core. They just needed a Trump type of sociopathic personality to shamelessly "go there", to lead them to this moment in history.

#NDGlossary: Pathology paradigm - A worldview that frames neurological differences like autism as deficits or disorders needing to be fixed, rather than natural variations in human neurology. This medical model often leads to harmful interventions and social stigma.

I think most of us autistics don't even like Elon Musk, and don't at all see him as in anyway emblematic or at all representative of autism, and we are offended to be seen as anything like him. Amazing how wrong some of these autistiphobes are about how we really think.

I added to my thread from yesterday (lol, I'm AuDHD, and this is what I do, my threads sometimes grow as I ponder what to say to best communicate a thought). On the Social Model of Disability:

We hope you have a Wonderful Tuesday! This is our Mutual Aid Thread for May 27th. If you are in need you may post here and I will try to share every need I see, as well as ask our members to do the same. If you have no need, please consider sharing! #mutualaid #helpsky 💸💕

Over explaining so people won’t misinterpret me. And. Still. Getting. Misinterpreted.

People are misstating what the social model of disability is. So many who attack the social model haven't really read enough to inform themselves. It was deaf persons in the 1960s who first articulated what the social model of disability is. Note that deafness is usually a permanent impairment. 1/

Signs I am #autistic (AuDHD): I start to write a simple reply to someone, and it gets so detailed and focused it turns into a thread. I can't stop myself. I do this *all. the. time.* Here's the latest example:
