Hi everyone! I’m really really panicking right now. The court date for me to get evicted is on the 21st of April. I don’t have anywhere to go if I get evicted.
I am disabled and I have no money right now. I can barely afford food and I really need help. I don’t know what else to do and I’m scared. Please, I really need help.
Aaaand I just got a shut off notice for my power…
people trip me out when they say shit like “oh i miss being 10 years old and not having problems” like the fuck you mean you didn’t have problems
“Rayban charity glasses event” is a scam don’t click any link in a post that says that.
Old tumblr users remember this scam back when it first went out.
Also no, this isn’t a joke. This phishing scam is 100% running its course again so watch out for your mutuals long abandoned accounts suddenly posting it. Please make everyone aware of it since most users here are newbies who have not seen it before!
Screaming at everyone this upcoming autism awareness month that nonspeaking/nonverbal people who are autistic are still autistic. No matter if they’re nonverbal/nonspeaking or not.
(Nonverbal as in cant speak at all, all the time!!)
I always get “that doesn’t happen” and in the same breath I get people asking what makes a nonverbal person nonverbal and that it’s “always caused by other issues” instead of it just them being autistic and autism does in fact sometimes cause you to just be nonverbal.
I don’t know. I don’t think people realize the reality of being nonverbal. You WILL get people who say “that isn’t autism”. Always. For not even just nonverbal things, but being higher support needs even. Or having “stereotypical” autistic traits.
Violent meltdowns? Cant possibly be autism. Needing help bathing? Brushing your teeth? Medication? Phone calls? Not being able to mask? All not autism. (This is sarcasm)
I think people need to realize just the LACK of awareness towards autism that isn’t just white low support needs, high masking autism.
Symptoms are not a fixed feeling. They can get worse and they can get better both experiences are valid.

Good news that we deserve 😌
for people who can’t watch the video: THE AMYGDALA CHANGES TRADITIONALLY FOUND IN MOTHERS SHOW UP IN ALL PRIMARY CAREGIVERS REGARDLESS OF SEX
Changes in this part of the brain were previously used to previously used to argue that women are the ideal primary caretakers of children in all cases. And apparently, it’s false. The reason they found these changes in women was that women were already the primary caretaker in almost all cases, not because there’s something inherent to women that makes them better parents.
this is big news for SAHF and single dads!
This is also big news for adoptive parents and queer couples! Many people try to argue that adoptive parents aren't real parents because of biology and blah blah blah. Bigots will also argue this case against queer people. So, to all my traditionalists: it's not science! It's bigotry and sexist!
youtube needs to implement some sort of 'do not recommend channel + kill yourself for recommending me this' button

I don’t mean to be old but computer used to just have games. U didnt have to pay for em either but if u wanted u could get a little CD that put the game onto the computer and you could play it forever and ever even if the company that made it went to hell and shit. You didn’t even need the internet or wifi or anything. And it was pretty neat
It would be a finished game, too. If you played long enough and did really good you could go to all the places and get all the stuff. You never had to pay more money later it was just there. onn compter
plants love being polyploid its one of their favorite things to be
you give animals an extra set of dna and they crumble into a little cartoon pile of ash. you give plants an extra set of dna and they say ahh finally an extra set of dna to do activities with
free healthcare should include teeth actually
with musk and trump gunning for social security, now seems like a good time to remind everyone that social security isn’t like government charity or something. it’s fully paid for. always has been. corporate media loves to parrot the conservative lie that social security is running out of money without ever mentioning why: congress stole the money. they literally robbed from peter to pay paul.
the whole idea of social security was always that you pay into it your whole life, and then when you retire the government gives you that money back. it’s your money. always has been. like sure technically the money being paid by working age people now is going to the people who are retired now. but social security was started in the 30’s, the people who are collecting benefits now paid into it their whole lives. the idea was to be a retirement savings account that the government keeps safe for you because it’s almost impossible for working class people to save for retirement under capitalism.
the problem is that congress looked at all that money just sitting there and decided to use it as a slush fund. and never paid it back. because it’s easier to steal that money than it is to raise taxes for new spending. so yeah, it’s a problem now that there are more old people retiring than there are young people working, but only because congress stole the money it was supposed to be saving for the people now retiring. all those savings could have actually earned money for the people who can’t pay in due to disability etc by being used as a massive investment fund. instead it’s the classic austerity misdirection: sabotage a useful functional government program, then claim that it doesn’t work and is too expensive. and the media never talks about it.
I always feel like I sound like a libertarian when I say this but no that's literally YOUR money. The fact that I worked for a little over 4 years having social security deducted from my pay check, something that is not optional, and then when I became disabled and went to the SSA and said "Hi I'm disabled now, can I have that money I gave you to watch specifically so if something happened to me I could take care of myself back so I can take care of myself?" and then they go "haha NO" is unreal. That should not be allowed. It's my fucking money, they took it from me by force under the logic that it was to be kept safe until I became unable to work, either due to age or disability, and then when you actually need it they go "sike, fuck you" and there's basically nothing you can do about it. The government took our money, used it for whatever, and is now trying to cover their asses by making a big fuss about fraud and how expensive it is and isn't it better to just let old and disabled people die? After all they're such a drain on the resources we fucked up managing, honestly fuck you for even expecting to be taken care of when you're sick or in your old age.
(Also this isn't to say that people who have never worked should be left out to dry, you don't have to deserve to be taken care of or work a specific amount to be worthy of not ending up starving and unhoused when you can't work, and the amount I paid in over the course of four years of primarily minimum wage just-under-part-time employment would never be able to take care of me for the rest of my life given that I'm only turning 30 this year and will hopefully live for another 60 at least, but as OP says if the gov had been smart and invested the money they could make bank and have plenty to take care of every single person in this country who needs it forever. But they didn't. And then they act like we're the problem.)
