-> file: fediverse/2975 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── @user-1411 doctors (the ones who are diagnosing autism) don't care about classifying people. I personally don't believe they should. Instead they try and classify symptoms, and if you don't present any negative symptoms then there's little reason to talk to a doctor. Meaning little reason to seek out an autism diagnosis except for curiosity. I was the kid you were describing btw, except maybe with a bit of neglect thrown in around ages 4+ ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2976 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: uspol │ └──────────────────────┘ on our current trajectory, the presidential election is already won. now we can get back to on-the-ground organizing, the part that actually improves life instead of maintaining our current (unethical) state. As long as our allies (liberals) continue to work, perhaps there may come a day when we can stand against them as friendly equals in the ballot box. But for now we are best known through friends and community rather than TV. I am optimistic in a way I haven't been for a while. I know that the more we speak, the more we share, the more they falter, the more people we can save from their vice grip of despair. There is no better world than the one we build together! ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2977 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: uspol │ └──────────────────────┘ I am so, so, SO glad that none of my planning seems to be necessary. At least for now - they still have time to make moves. We'll see if they flip the board. It feels like "checkmate in ~6 turn-months" ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2978 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── @user-883 for the same reason we wouldn't drop bombs on prisons from helicopters to dismantle the prison industrial complex, so too should we not bomb datacenters just because they are enslaved to the whims of corporate interests. much better, I find, to liberate rather than eliminate. computers are generalized information processing machines. We could do so much with the infrastructure they built for profit. All we need to do is replace their chains with free access and we could unlock worlds of possibilities for humanity. (I'm not saying it'll be easy) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/473 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── The only thing I truly fear Is the spirits within dinosaur bones coming alive and eating people ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2979 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── what if we made a hormone that bolstered your bones and did all the gender-neutral things that Estrogen and Testosterone do without any of the feminizing or masculinizing effects ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2980 ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────── I trust that my allies are working.
