Trumpistan tariffs mean I can't send a present to my Mom for her 80th birthday. Or get my money back for the expensive postage. Is this their freedom?

Why doesn't the German press show the ongoing demonstrations in the US? What are they afraid of?

Let's normalize expressing emotions. Fake "objectivity" as well as spiritual bypassing are part of the problem, not the solution. And sanctioning people of the global majority, LGBTQI+ people, or women from expressing justified anger or frustration or sorrow harms us all.

Während Menschen in Gaza verhungern, demonstrieren Nazis in meiner Nachbarschaft um mehr Hass, mehr Ausbeutung, mehr Angst zu haben. Geh gleich hin zum Gegendemo.

Western government support of Israeli genocide is a defining evil of our time.

German politicians are seriously discussing quotas for limiting the number of immigrant/child of immigrant parents kids in schools. And a registry for "mentally ill" people. And the federal police are teaming up with Palantir. I just can't.

Das deutsche Bildungssystem reproduziert intergenerationellen Traumata. Beweis mir gerne das Gegenteil.

World War 3 kinda sucks, but you know, it was either this or pronouns

Tens of thousands march through Berlin, chanting “Free Palestine, Free Gaza” — a powerful show of solidarity with the Palestinian struggle.

Let's talk about privilege. Not pointing fingers, just plain facts. Do you have it? Now's the time to use it. Remember the quote "first they came for the Communists"? We're already past that. www.instagram.com/reel/DJctK67...

TACO’s ICE thugs are America’s Brownshirts. When this turns (and it will) can’t wait for it be open season on MAGA-ts. They’re not going to stop and thoughts and prayers haven’t worked so far but unity will.

Ate dinner with some Syrian friends yesterday. They wanted to know what was going to happen in the US, and reassured me that Trump isn't as bad as Assad. Yet.

Alex Padilla US Senator (CA) forcibly removed & detained from a Kristi Noem press conference. This isn’t the United States we are used too. We are well on our way to an Authoritarian dictatorship.

"Ein Behördenubergreifendes Risikomanagement" Lol 1) ist das in D überhaupt möglich? 2) was mit den Falschdiagnosen/ Symptome mit Ursache tauschen wenn es sowieso keine Hilfe gibt? Und kommen wir Autist_innen auch weg wie bei RFKJr? 3) gibt's Gegenvorschläge z.b. mit Traumatherapie?

To Whom it May Concern, Your citizen Greta Thunberg, an unarmed civilian helping transport critical lifesaving supplies to the starving populace of Gaza, has been kidnapped along with fellow humanitarians aboard the Madleen. (1)

We need more bravery. Worldwide. Remember history. It's happening again, it's happening here (again).

Once again and this time from an autistic social scientist; they have a plan and we are the targets.

The big “why do you hate AI?” Thread got comments and quotes turned off, but here’s the main reason I hate AI: It’s being developed by the worst people on the planet solely to enrich themselves at the expense and labor of the world’s vulnerable populations. Everything else stems from that

Sogenannte KI ist nicht lustig und harmlos, und erst recht nicht innovativ. Die klaut unglaublich viel, lässt jegliche Menschlichkeit oder Ethik oder Empathie liegen, und verbrennt unglaublich viele fossile Energien. Bitte informiert euch.

🧵 Masha Gessen, who lived under Russia’s secret police, is sounding the alarm: the U.S. is now echoing those same authoritarian patterns. Raids, surveillance, fear tactics—it’s not theoretical anymore. We are watching a police state take root in real time. #OnYourSide @mashagessen.bsky.social

Inspiring! I wish all the isolated people in Germany doing similar, excellent, crucial work could come together and build community for us by us.

A late diagnosis is better than no diagnosis, because it helps us start to understand ourselves. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Working in a collegial and respectful environment makes such a huge difference. I wish all the people trapped in bullying and discrimination at work could also break free.

I've been asking myself what other countries are planning for autistic people. This is terrifying.

There are mental health "professionals" on German LinkedIn touting "AI therapy" for those who can't get in to see an actual human. I just can't.

I just found @Charles Montgomery on Blue Sky. bsky.app/profile/char... Even after decades of living car free and encouraging others to do so, his book really inspired me.

I challenge anyone who claims autistic people don't have empathy or "theory of mind" to a debate. #actuallyautistic Even my cat shows empathy (until her instinct to murder kicks in). People with cognitive disabilities or dementia have empathy. So claiming autistic people don't is illogical.

This is what they have planned for all of us. First they come for the refugees and immigrants. Then the trans people. Then the "mentally ill" (including autistic and ADHD). Then, what, Muslims? Women using birth control?

This one goes out to Brainworm Bobby, but also to my kid's former teacher Frau S-L, to Mr T my 6th grade math teacher, to the psychologist who told me (in 2022) autistic people don't "like people," and all the rest.

🖕🖕🖕🖕

And they'll use smart watches, so called AI, and all those "test your DNA for free" services to help do it.

Respect for Pope Francis. He walked the walk. We need more like him My Dad was raised Catholic, and although he became a Buddhist he always honored St Francis and commitment to renunciation and merit. I understand that the Pope chose the name Francis in that same spirit.

The reduction of humans to "useful" and "useless" is fascism. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
