Please don’t use ableist language.

Oh absolutely. There’s a lot of angles to it but one that comes to mind immediately is the extreme difference from working together to bring art to life, to then experiencing the extreme alienation of working under capitalism as adults.

I was part of the crew that’s why I called us out XD

Not gay enough. They must’ve left out the theater crew.

A collection of us inhabiting this body

Here’s a thought, if a kid is thriving in an environment, don’t rip them away from that environment in order to “appropriately challenge them.” Backwards ass logic.

We never pulled the “could’ve gone pro” stuff but we were in an athletic program that put way too much pressure on us. And we were also a “former gifted student” who was just unmedicated AuDHD with special interests that aligned well with certain school subjects. It’s really sad thinking about it, we used to love learning because we did it for fun. We used to love sport and being active for the same reason. We’re still trying to rediscover that joy to this day. We had nightmares about showing up to a fitness test “too fat” for the better part of a decade after we stopped competing. We are still averse to reading for or learning if there’s even the slightest bit of pressure attached to it. We want to go back and undo these things so badly

I got so frustrated and embarrassed not being able to spell bourgeoisie that I spent like a week writing it at least once a day.

Sure is a cold day out there.

My comrade in autism I missed so many opportunities to be social under a range of similar circumstances. I know the memories and regrets can be really painful to reflect on but don’t worry, it’s never too late to make new memories. I’ve been trying to be more social lately and while it’s really hard and demotivating in the beginning, the efforts are really bearing fruit now.

Imo try to resist the pressure to mask though.

Airbus said a recent incident had revealed that solar flares may corrupt data critical to the functioning of flight controls.

This is incredibly interesting, I hope the final report includes specific details of the data corruption and what they did to fix it. Actually it’s more interesting because the fix is reverting to a previous software version so they somehow introduced a vulnerability to single event upsets I’m guessing. I’d love to know how often these sort of events happen (not just when they cause issues but bit-flips in general). I know that flying high they are exposed to higher levels of radiation than on the ground.

Doing this proactively after a single incident instead of waiting for a crash to force their hand means it’s not a very lore-accurate cosplay.

It is much easier to agree to disagree when your uncle isn’t voting to strip you of your civil rights

Sighs this apathy for other people’s suffering is so tiring. “It doesn’t affect me negatively so it’s not worth shunning the imperialism-enabler” is not the moral victory this person seems to imply.

I’m so tired of this, how do we change it? Does anybody have advise that has worked on helping people find a sense of solidarity?

The exact quote takes place at 2:09 however it isn’t the only transphobic point made by her in this statement.

Yeah that and the whole “won’t someone think of the cishet white germans” bit is

Out of curiosity, what is your opinion on her views on these issues:

Germany has an issue where “people with a traditional family no longer feel valued and someone who is white, male and heterosexual almost has to apologise for it”.

The party is also against loosening regulations on legally changing one’s gender; Wagenknecht believes that such a law “turns parents and children into guinea pigs for an ideology that only benefits the pharmaceutical lobby.”

I didn’t even know this comm existed but I love it.
