So... Elon Musk is Autistic. I'm not Impressed.

 So, in SNL, Elon Musk disclosed he is Autisic. Many would think my community could surely use him for representation... But, spoiler alert: WE WON'T.

First thing first, he didn't say he was Autistic... he said he had Asperger's. AND THAT'S ABLEIST, AND ANTISEMITIC. Really, Google the book "Asperger's Children", and you'll see why. Secondly, why would anyone look up to him? He exploits people for his own benefit, he is pro colonization,  HE DIDN'T USE HIS SPOUSE'S PRONOUNS... HE IS A MONSTER.

And yet, people still look up to him. People who are bootlickers, who stay silent during times of anti-black violence, who believe in antisemitism...PEOPLE THAT SHOULDN'T BECOME A REPRESENTATION OF WHAT OUR COMMUNITY ACTUALLY STANDS FOR. 

Some say he is successful because he is a time traveller... I COULDN'T CARE LESS. All he does is exploit the planet, say he dreams of moon capitalism (really? ableism on the moon?), and pay his workers a misery. WHY DO PEOPLE EVEN STAN HIM? OH YEAH... BECAUSE... THEY'RE BIGOTS.

Some people believe not welcoming Musk into our community is gatekeeping. I GUESS GATEKEEPING ISN'T WRONG SOMETIMES. I can't let such a capitalist represent our community. We've already had so much stigma, i don't want to be compared to a capitalist bigot, FUCK HIM!!

And the worst thing is, HE IS A CUREBIE. He wants to invent a chip that could cure autism. If you've seen She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, you know chipping people is a TERRIBLE IDEA.

Elon Musk is a terrible danger to the Autistic Community. I won't let him represent us. NO CAPITALIST WILL EVER REPRESENT MY PEOPLE, AND THIS IS NOT UP FOR DEBATE.

What's the Social Model Of Disability? (I'M NOT "DIFFERENTLY ABLED")

"Asking for basic rights isn't too much to ask" -Diane Guerrero This is gonna be one of the most controversial articles i have ever done. But i've gotta be brave enough to do it. They asked for it in school, it's important for me and, as Pippi Longstockings said once when they asked why she walked backwards "The question is, why not?" Recently, the word "differently abled" is being introduced when talking about people who, becausse of X or Y, NEED ACOMMODATIONS. BUT I THINK IT'S AN EUPHEMISM, AND IT CAN BE EXPLAINED THRUGH THE SOCIAL MODEL OF DISABILITY. This model explains that IT'S SOCIETY WHO DISABLES US, EVEN MORE THAN OUR DIAGNOSES. AND IT'S SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DON'T LIKE OUR STYLE. So, what acommodations does an Autistic like me need? Basically, our sensory processing is different. Evven, with background noise, i won't be able to hear you. You gotta speak LOUD, SLOW AND CLEAR, so i can undertand you, or at lea...

El que calla NO siempre otorga: Sobre la intimidad forzada y tu gran afán de saber de mi vida privada

 Tw: Capacitismo, familia, autolesión, eugenesia, misoginia, ecofascismo, pedofilia, problemas del colon, mayúsculas.  He visto miles de posts de gente que va más avanzada en sus procesos de dieta Apta Para Veganos (APV), en los que se pregunta a toda la demás gente: "Oye, ¿Por qué no te cambias a dieta APV?".  Y entonces digo: "Aquí vamos de nuevo". ES POR MIS PROBLEMAS DEL COLON. Y POR MIS MEDICAMENTOS QUE NO PRETENDO MEZCLAR CON SUPLEMENTOS.  Y POR OTRAS COSAS DE LAS CUALES NO TE TIENES QUE ENTERAR FORZOSAMENTE.  Muchas veces a la gente Discapacitada se nos pide revelar información que NOS INCOMODA MUCHO REVELAR. *Las adecuaciones que necesitamos, incluyendo sus razones y si sabemos sus pros y contras. *Sobre nuestros síntomas incómodos (autolesiones, incontinencia, tics verbales) *Sobre nuestras situaciones familiares/sexuales/románticas *Sobre el origen de nuestra discapacidad, Y SI ES PREVENIBLE. Entre muuuuchas otras cosas.  Mucha gente puede venir y...

Enough, apologize with Entrapta

 We've talked about how She-Ra gives us hope, about how Catra is a victim of multiple abuse...  Now, we'll talk abou that princess who redeemed an intergalactic conqueror with her love... That princess who, behin her ethically grey actions, hid a great desire of being apreciated with all and her diferences... Yes... Today, we'll talk about our dear Entrapta. I think she's the best Autistic rep until now. They even got an Autistic writer for her.  She is a somewhat lonely girl, a tech lover, but... she isn't that good with people.  And that's when Hordak comes along. He also feels like a failure, knowing he'll be euthanized becausae of his nerve damage. She's the first to understand what he feels like, BECAUSE SHE'S BEEN TREATED LIKE THAT. I MEAN, THEY PUT HER ON A LEASH. That's how they develop a relationship, between two souls sharing Ableist Discrimination and love for tech.  Many raise eyebrows at this relationship. They think: How could a wom...
