The study, “Attend Less, Fear More: Elevated Distress to Social Threat in Toddlers With Autism Spectrum Disorder,” involved repeatedly scaring autistic and neurotypical toddlers by various means including

Having a mechanical spider with glowing eyes move towards the toddler

Having a unfamiliar stranger walk towards the toddler

Having another unfamiliar stranger approach the toddler but wearing three different “grotesque masks”

According to @ AnnMemmott on Twitter, “Some trials were terminated due to the child’s [utter panic] .. and others were excluded… due to parental noncompliance (i.e. parent interfering with [the experiment to terrifying their child] ..)”

The study was also funded in part by Autism $peaks, which makes this study all the more troublesome.

Since publishing the study, Yale has understandably been met with backlash by the autistic community. What has their response been?

Blocking accounts who speak out against it. That’s it. No explanation, no apology, just sweeping it under the rug and hoping we would go away. 

So what can we do?

Sign the petition for Yale and the authors of this study: Suzanne L. Macari, Angelina Vernetti, and Katarzyna Chawarska to be held accountable: http://chng.it/dq6KrsmgkS

Tweet @yale on Twitter and Instagram and let them know that traumatizing autistic toddlers is not acceptable.

Feel free to rb with additional info/resources, it’s 2:16am currently and I’m low on spoons so I might have missed some details.

That post explains better what this chemical is and what is going on.

“The guards are spraying this disinfectant in retaliation for the report [that revealed the deplorable health conditions in detention centers]. To be clear - HDQ is an industrial-strength disinfectant, which according to the manufacturer is “harmful if inhaled” and “causes severe skin burns and serious eye damage.” The guards are spraying it on everything every 15-30 minutes, according to sources, and immigrants in the center have already experienced severe symptoms including blisters, rashes, bleeding, fainting, breathing difficulties, headaches, stomach pain, and nausea. “

It’s not just allergic reactions. That’s a severe misunderstanding of what disinfectants do and a refusal to acknowledge how serious this is and WHY people are freaking out.

No, they’re not literally being gassed in the grandiose (gore-iose?) way you’d think of - being shoved into an iron chamber like animals that then is filled with gas that melts their skin… But they are still being forced to into small areas with harmful fumes and surfaces covered in chemicals that are made to eat living matter.

And I was put in the seat instantly, of course. I said, “your honor, I can’t be a juror on a two week trial, I have opera rehearsal.” And she said, “opera huh, well, sing something for us.”

And I did. In a federal court of law, in front of the judge, 75 jurors, the lawyers and the fucking DEFENDANT, I sang o mio babbino caro.

Don’t be mean to people who ask questions.

I hate it when i see someone asking ‘so wait, if a trans woman like women, is she gay or straight?’ and suddenly a dozen people jump on their ass for being ignorant or transphobic or whatnot- when all they had to do was answer the question. All you had to is go ‘She’s gay!’, and the person would go ‘oh, cool!’ and now they know. They just had a positive interaction with trans folks. 

But if you belittle them, now they’ve learned they’re punished for asking. They’re punished for wanting to know, for wanting to learn, and for coming directly to the people who live that life instead of just going to google. And they come away not having learned anything except that those people were dicks to them.

Everyone is clueless at some point. When I was 10, I was homophobic. I was a kid, raised around homophobic parents in a homophobic country. But one day i decided hey, i want to learn, and i found some gay friends and I asked them some questions.

Do you think i’d be here; if they had told me that i was an ignorant fuck, that i should pull my head out of my ass, that I shouldn’t have asked those things?

It was thanks to them that I learned and grew as a person, because even though i was a stupid homophobic kid with some admittedly stupid questions, they answered them, because everybody starts clueless.

It doesnt matter how young or old or who they are either- everyone starts somewhere. And lord knows, I’ve had some people ask me some stupid questions. My government teacher came to me yesterday and asked me that exact question i mentioned above, and I answered it. He’s a 40-something year old dude. He’s trying to learn.

My little brother is 9, and asked me once if being gay meant that I wanted to kiss every girl i met. Was it a stupid question by my standards? yes. Did I answer it like it was any other normal question? Also yes.

Insulting people who are trying to learn is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever encountered. It can literally mean the difference between someone becoming part of the community or trying to take us down. We judge that; we control how we educate. 

hey guys uhh this post is going around because of the lastest smash direct but i wanna warn you all the op of this post (@/nowitsevehotter) ships incest
