Poetic answer: “It’s better to know you’re a normal zebra than to think you’re a weird horse.” Direct answer: “Without those labels, most people chalk up your symptoms to character flaws they can use as excuses to hate you, abuse you, and discriminate against you.”

You aren’t some uniquely ontologically bad person. You weren’t born worthy of being hated. Your good intentions aren’t actually irrelevant. You’ve just been navigating a system of injustice called ableism without realizing it, all this time. And others like you know how to help.

The CDC also didn’t mandate handwashing until 1980s so if ur waiting for the CDC to tell u what to do for your help (i.e to mask for covid) news flash they wont. The CDC has been failing us since its conception.

robert kirkman ditched a decent animation studio in s1 so he could do it in house and spend more on celebrities he could hang out with and be a fanboy

Truly we are in a humility shortage, like just take two seconds to reflect on the breathtaking level of arrogance you see on a daily basis from people who are smugly wrong in such extreme ways that they would’ve inspired Greek myths about human hubris thousands of years ago

Andy's that family member who voted for Trump 3 times😒

(Explaining a concept to an American) So imagine a car…

Y’all ever think about how misogynists say women can’t be in charge because we would let our emotions make us act irrationally?

It's kinda surreal being old enough to remember when photobashing was the slop process before AI. I never held that belief, nor did anybody with any skin in the art industry. It was mostly a pretentious opinion held by "real artists". Just interesting to witness how things change

3D artwork I created back in 1999

Also I am a firm believer in the importance of smiling and waving at little kids as you pass them, because the world is already scary enough when you’re small and new WITHOUT adults also acting like you’re either being a burden just by existing, or like you don’t exist at all

the star fox movie is going to be everyone's bi awakening. "the mummy" of our generation

I disagree. As someone who prefers the controls of the Adventure games, it’s nice to have the option to play more like that than the more recent boost games

Disabled communities & friend groups are critically important if for NO other reason than the preponderance of “Wait a minute, that suffering you’re describing sounds like a symptom of this one treatable condition I know about!” “What?? I’ve been rawdogging it this whole time???”

Legit, I need some indie games that match late 90s- early 2000s 3D promotion style

Tbh ever since germ theory became politically polarized in the US, I’ve stopped being shocked by formerly uncontroversial things getting left behind by our Overton Window’s ongoing rightward shifts. If they’ll politicize not having poop in your food, they’ll politicize anything.

Whether it’s opposing federal food safety inspections, pushing raw milk, manipulating people into refusing the vaccines they need, eye-rolling at 😷s, considering hand-washing optional, or sabotaging indoor air cleaning efforts, these clowns act like germs aren’t even real!

Sonic Team learned all the wrong lessons from 06. "No fully 3D stages, no Adventure controls, no other playable characters, no serious story or music," they thought the FORMULA was the problem. Only recently they realized, "Oh shit, those were things people LIKED about 3D Sonic!"
