Did you know that all mothers of autistic children drank water while they were pregnant? Even weirder, they all breathed air! Really makes you think.

Also it's all fake. The AI gen allegations came about due to insanely mischaracterised conversations from one of the companies leads who said they were "excited to see where it goes next", nothing else. Palworld hate was grifted nonesense and nothing more.

Every time there is an announcement about Palworld, people continue to post conspiracy theories about the creature designs being AI even though there is literally concept art that shows it's not. AI-generated images mostly looked like blurry blobs when the game was first announced in 2021.

It's not as simple as "PTSD is about a single incident, & CPTSD is about multiple ones." A single incident trauma can absolutely evoke complex trauma responses if it is endured without support-- & technically "complex" traumatic stressors can absolutely evoke "classic" PTSD symptoms.

We've nearly doubled our waitlist in the last week. Thank you for the interest everyone, and our Alpha Testing efforts are well underway. We're making progress every day, and are getting closer to being ready to take on our first batch of real users.

Man, I remember the good old days of actual child safe websites instead of moral guardians deciding it's everyone else's problem to raise their damn kids

Someone in a server I'm in left because she was complaining about kids accessing NSFW stuff on a device that connects to the internet and several people including me told her it's the parents' job to make sure their kids don't do that with parental controls and monitoring what their kids are doing.

Trauma recovery is never, ever about "getting rid" of feelings, "parts," or even memories. I know, they hurt. I know, you hate this. Valid. Real. But the path ahead is about acknowledging & integrating & realistically transforming them-- not amputating or destroying them.

These new bsky guidelines against nsfw feel awfully like they want to implement payments for premium features and visa/mastercard etc al are either demanding it or they're complying in advance. It's fucking garbage

New dot hatched today. Hatched with a local player's dot. #PlayPeridot #Niantic

We are often called a “burden”. As if the weight we carry to make everyone else feel comfortable isn’t the true burden. As if treating people with basic human dignity is a burden.

Trauma recovery is not "just letting yourself feel." Survivors often feel things at 1740% intensity. "Letting ourselves feel" isn't the problem-- the problem more often is we've been left to feel overwhelming sh*t w/ no support or tools to realistically process or metabolize it.

Me and @wafflecat.bsky.social recently watched The Golden Compass and I remembered after me and my dad saw it in the theater years ago he would sometimes call my dog I had at the time (a Yorkie named Rinoa) my daemon because she wanted to follow me around everywhere.

Dragon corg!

Autism isn’t “caused” by Tylenol. Or vaccines. Or anything. It’s inherited. It’s natural. It’s human. The hunt for a “cause” is just the hunt for someone to blame - and blame only makes sense if you think being autistic is bad. We’re not. But if you continue saying this shit, you are.

GOODNIGHT BLUESKY! a lot of good work was done on Northsky stuff today: - Alpha Testing Migrations (getting closer!) - Educational Animatic Script Finalized - Community Guidelines Draft In Progress - and more! more exciting news coming on Monday or Tuesday of next week in Newsletter form!

Clothes and names aren't "irreversible medical interventions"

Got my haircut here today and not only did the guy do a good job, there was also an unexpected little dog sitting in the waiting area. It didn't want to be petted and it barked at me, though.

It's the clearest sign that Bsky is actually an effective refuge: idiots keep coming here to whine about everyone being here.

every week some guy logs onto bsky dot app to yell at the entire protocol

Cute dog I met today.

Will this take never die? I just don't want to be on a website owned by a fascist ketamine addict - that's a principle that goes well beyond "impact" or whatever poster-brain-syndrome nonsense people come up with.

I get $900 SSDI a month and the last several weeks its cost about $1200 a week JUST to get by, not counting loved ones emergencies we've been able to help with thanks to donations. This is not tenable, we're already sinking, there's less help coming in & now the govt said "we're coming for you". 😟😰

This is Daegi and Jjigi. Together they share one brain cell, and Jjigi is currently using it to look out the window. 12/10 for both #SeniorPupSaturday (IG: j___d_love)

Bluesky is like if the world was divided into people who are silly and the literal silly police

Stop calling access “special treatment”. Access is a right. Without it, you’re not doing the basics of including us. You’re excluding us. Very basic. What is access? Ask us. Each of us. Too much work? That’s too bad. Now you know how we feel.

Soon I'll be getting a haircut here in Sweden. I'm hoping wherever we go doesn't screw it up. I'm wary about new people cutting my hair since earlier this year a lady at Great Clips messed up the haircut I've been getting for 2 years and gave me a pixie cut instead of an undercut with curtain bangs.

Sudden, unexpected changes are dysregulating for both ADHD and autistic folks, but in different ways. Change can destroy ADHD'ers' routines, wipe working memory, or spin us off into unplanned unproductive activities. For autistic folks, change can brings confusion, overwhelm and emotional upheaval

As well as the fact twink has never been derogatory, it was always just a descriptive lgbtqa+ term for a endomorphic, more "feminine" in regards to female gender norms self identifying man. Many cis people are just ignorant to the slang of LGBTQA+ culture, as butch often goes over their heads too

The way I see it, we internalize that “our needs don’t matter” because being bullied from all angles implies that. It teaches “I must not be worth shit because no one has said nor acted otherwise”. Trauma recovery starts when we stand up to us & everyone else for our needs that do indeed matter.

The giraffe pattern on an off-white and black dot would look great and is something I would not have wanted to do last year, but now I would like to make one. It will be kinda like a pure-type creature. Maybe this one, I will do sometime (not sure when). #PlayPeridot #Niantic

DO NOT go back to twitter that is the hitler site. i am dead serious with this shit. its main role as a de-facto organ of the trump admin is to facilitate nazi propaganda. you cannot be posting your doodles on the "euthanize all trans people" forum just because they still allow pornography

gonna have to get caught up on the new bluesky terms of service, and chat with northsky peeps about it, and prepare to take a lot of nsfw artists onto the platform... 🥲 no rest for the wicked!

It seems Northsky will be a better place for artists to go to since Bluesky is not quite doing a Tumblr but close enough to be concerning.

excuse me. a cat turning into a dog affects nearly EVERYONE’s life. your privilege is showing

broke: "I like pancakes" "so I guess you hate waffles?" woke: "I like pancakes" "there's a CHEETO in the WHITE HOUSE"

Our empathy is not a "weakness." Our sensitivity is not a "weakness." Our vulnerability around empathy & sensitivity is not their existence in us-- it's how we've been falsely convinced by our trauma conditioning they are somehow inconsistent w/ boundaries & assertiveness.

Played some more @draconiagame.bsky.social today. Not sure if these are mushrooms or some sort of tree, but I like these cool things. I don't remember them being there when I played in 2022. #VideoGames #Draconia #VirtualPhotography

Society demands we prove worth by output. So we overshoot. We burn out. We break. The truth, however, is that our limits are sacred. Our real capacity – not the imagined one – is what sustains us.
