with adhd/autism it's funny like. people will call you weird all your life, people will bully you for your "outlandish" behaviour, people will criticize literally everything you do as "not normal", BUT THE SECOND YOU GET DIAGNOSED (or suggest you might have it) they're like "huh what but you're so normal, you're literally the most normal person I've ever seen, you're literally so normal and absolutely nothing is wrong with you? why would you have that now all of a sudden???"

I just don't understand how people gave up masking on public transport. I'm not even talking from a moral perspective. Every time I'm on a train there is at least one person coughing their lungs out -- and maybe it isn't Covid! But how did everyone go back to "yep, sure am happy to be marinating in That! Love to be sealed in a metal canister, breathing in specks of other people's diseased respiratory systems! Sure am glad not to protect myself in any way!"

Kudos to the artist for making this asshat so fucking punchable that I actually want to yeet my phone to smash his face

when i was reading the book entangled life which is about fungi and the author merlin sheldrake said that once he got his first author copies he was going to dampen the pages and use them to grow oyster mushrooms and yeast and then use the yeast to brew beer and then drink the beer with the mushrooms to complete the cycle of fungal knowledge. i was like really and truly this guy gets it

ya idk who needs to hear this but just because you’re exploited under capitalism doesnt mean that all of your selfish and destructive behaviors and decisions regarding consumption are justified and moral. individual action is the bedrock of collective action. if you’ve been convinced otherwise, if you’ve been convinced that individual action is fruitless, then you’ve resigned to the insidious narratives that benefit only those who gain from systems of violence and exploitation.
