A small thread about my health.

Hi, all! This thread won’t be too long - just a short thread regarding my health. Along with my eczema, severe allergies and asthma and gluten sensitive I have been dealing with chronic every day pain that can be debilitating.

So important that autistic @RyanHendry94@twitter.com praised the work of Lorna Wing and Judith Gould for broadening autism into a spectrum in the wake of today's disturbing news about Asperger and the Nazis. Good work, Ryan! https://www.independent.co.uk/voices/hans-asperger-autism-eugenics-nazi-germany-lorna-wing-judith-gould-a8312536.html

A friend of mine is a classicist and she just informed me of a Roman epitaph belonging to a female military surgeon.

History is ACTUALLY much more varied and diverse than most people think! Whodathunkit.

It's this huge #irony of my writing that I love #werewolves so much but so rarely write about them in my long fiction. I don't entirely know why that is, but it is.

I have several short stories with werewolves, but my attempts to do novels that include werewolves have always fizzled.

The magic system in my original world COULD allow shapeshifting at higher levels, but it wouldn't be anything like werewolves.

Maybe one day I'll get a good werewolf book going. *sigh*

As we plead with ableds not to forget us in the media, we must remember not to forget ourselves. While we crawl to this goal together, we must be visible in the little ways we can.

Sometimes we are the representation that’s needed.

Take that selfie.
Write that song.
Be seen.

Temple Grandin is a problem for #autistic people.

Her
"Stimming is fine as long as it's done at the right time and place."

and

"Autistics today don't find jobs because they haven't been drilled with proper manners like in the 50s."

kind of bullshit is SO harmful.

#sigh

As the word “hookers” reenters the news cycle, a reminder:

Sex workers are human beings who earn their rent a certain way. Maybe you don’t want their jobs, but that doesn’t make them any less created in God’s image. No matter how men in power talk about them—you can do better.

"I'm getting a lot of likes on my posts."
"Yeah, gotta love those kittens!"
"What? I only post political commentary."
"Maybe that's what you post, but we see kittens."
"This is censorship!"
"Didn't you read the T&Cs? Everything controversial becomes kittens here."
"😿😾🙀🐾!"

Hey new submissive men: If some dominant woman is treating you poorly, it's NOT because you aren't 'submissive enough'. It's because she's an arsehole.
You're welcome.
