@benroyce I just hope these two don't fuck everything up. I don't trust either one of them.

@GottaLaff I've gotten several notifications from my personal data protection service that my SS# and other personal data is for sale on the dark web. The dates correspond to shortly after the Dunning-Krueger kids got into SS data. They are minting money.

@GottaLaff Don Jr. knows nothing about the Red Scare of the mid-20th century. How many lives were ruined by that? Now the US is going to ally itself with the Soviet-era thinker Putin? What does he have on the trump family?

Hey #ActuallyAutistic folks. Many of us know @ashleyspencer with her terrific site https://shop.autisticinnovator.com/

But many of us don't know is that she could use some help getting the word out so more people know about her store.

So how about sharing the love and making Ashley's day/week/month/year.

Not just today, but whenever you think of it. She could use a boost.

Thanks!

@cmconseils Most don't want one. It's a huge problem today. I'm so glad I'm not young, have been married for decades and don't have to date.

@freemo
Here is a link with a side-by-side of Hitler and Musk doing that salute. I guess Hitler didn't know how to do the salute, aye?

@monkeyninja

@freemo Here is the video that this screenshot is taken from. Just after the 4:30 mark, you'll find her moving her arm in a gesture. That gesture is *NOT* the Nazi salute. What Elon Musk did was a near-perfect mimic of Adolf Hitler's salute.

So no, this does not show that VP Harris is anything but a woman who uses her hands when she speaks.

@MariaHill @yuhasz01 @TonyStark Thank you. A simple search finds us "Entitlement is a term that refers to something, often a benefit from the government, that you have the right to have. Entitlements are based on legal frameworks of a society that are derived from concepts of principle, rights, social equality, or enfranchisement."

@codewiz Put something into the solution that is neutral to raise the level. A few glasses filled with water until the solution covers both.

Today is the day three years ago I started my #Sober journey. #Alcohol no longer drives my decisions. It was only difficult for me for about two weeks. I had an easier time than most.

If you are struggling today with alcohol, and want support, please feel free to reach out via PM if it makes it easier for you. I'll help.

@fishidwardrobe I understand the classic trolley problem, which way to switch? Murder is wrong, period. Healthcare is f'd up, but isn't direct murder. We have to draw a line somewhere. @hellomiakoda

@hellomiakoda Then it has to not be murder. I disagree, I don't want to live in a world where we murder people like this.@fishidwardrobe

@hellomiakoda Why? If he killed someone doesn't he deserve to receive some punishment?

@fishidwardrobe No, it's not the trolley problem. As a society we cannot make vigilante justice legitimate. And more people voted the MAGA GOP into power, they are the cause of CEOs like this. People need to vote out those who create these problems.@hellomiakoda

@hellomiakoda Yes! Saying that to an NT makes it sound weird to them, but to us, it is perfectly logical and consistent.

@hellomiakoda It's such an odd preoccupation. We have veggie sausage each Sunday and I move the sausage away from ketchup I put on the plate, then take pieces and dip them to eat. 🤷🏽♂️

@hmm_cook Repeated for weekly sessions seemingly forever.

@hmm_cook All I wanted to do was run out of the room. I even still have a strong visceral response to the term. One of the worst experiences in my life. I'm glad it works for people. As I said, my wife loved it.

@hmm_cook The couples therapist that my wife and I saw liked using tapping. My wife liked it and saw good effects from it. For me it created anxiety and made me tense. I figured it was because I was autistic. Have you found tapping to work with autistic folks? Maybe it was just my form of weird it doesn't work with.

@ewen I had that happen to me only years ago on Amazon. I got a foosball table that had horrid assembly instructions. I wrote new ones and posted them. Apparently, the company took those, put them into their product, and then complained to Amazon that I published their copyrighted material. My instructions were removed. I spent over an hour putting those detailed instructions together and they not only stole them, but said I violated their copyright. I can't imagine how you feel. GRRR.
