&&. la vie en rose

yes there is a name for this! necrophoresis is a process with social insects where the bodies are taken to a specific location on the outside of ( or within ) the nest - ants tend to keep them all in the same place, and the way an ant is signaled to be "dead" by its other members is through the release of a chemical called oliec acid

theres even been a few experiments where live ants were coated in the same chemical and other ants treated the live ants....exactly as though they were dead and tried dragging them into the pile

They demonize autistics and make it look like having an autistic child is the worst thing that could happen to a parent

They aren’t run by autistics

They support autism moms™ that have written books detailing how “hard” it is for them. The books further push the stereotype that autistic children are out of control.

They have made advertisements saying autism will “ruin marriages.”

They don’t hire or listen to autistic people

They push for a cure for all autism. (In my opinion, a treatment for severe autism wouldn’t be that bad, so that people could choose live a life without the complications of severe cases, like meltdowns, sensory issues, and communication problems. But they want to cure all autism, and make it seem like it’s horrible.)

Support the Autism Self Advocacy Network instead!

It is run by autistics, for autistics.

Nothing about us without us!

There’s just

so many of these

and I think it’s incredibly funny but

I just read this bit from the artist and

This is a "plein air" painting which means I set up my easel right across the street of this Chase bank in my city and painted it like it had caught fire. The police questioned me on the spot. Three weeks later Homeland Security was knocking on the door to my home. The question they kept asking me was "Do you hate these banks?" I can honestly say yes.
