Happy 14th Birthday To Portal 2

you do not have to be functional to be worthy of love and existence as an autistic person. if you need assistance, you are worthy. if you don’t have a job, you are worthy. if you are not social, you are worthy.

you exist. you are a person. you are inherently worthy of life and love

The endless battle between the idea of really wanting to start wearing a wildly different hairstyle, and the knowledge that 'extreme' (read: alternative) hairstyles are not allowed at my corporate job.

Why y'all gotta cramp my style like that?? Damn

I am always mesmerized by editors using a song for their edit that PERFECTLY matches a character's backstory. It's so satisfying.

Especially when I relate to the song, too. So then I relate to the character even more and AAAAAAAHHHHH-

Exhibit A, by one of my favorite TT editors:

Ok so I got to thinking and here's my pitch for an APD (auditory processing disorder) creature. Introducing.... the 'Huh?'

How Chicago helped put the Queen of Grunge back on her throne - Chicago Reader

The writing of Jen B. Larson and a new reissue by Bric-a-Brac Records have burnished the legacy of Seattle band Bam Bam and their powerhouse front woman, Tina Bell.

Leor Galil of the Chicago Reader wrote an article highlighting the work a handful of us have done lifting up the legacy of Tina Bell. In it, he also unearths more information about Tina’s life and Bam Bam’s story. It’s a long, important, and celebratory ready!

And this is one of many reasons why Philomena Cunk is one of my favorite characters EVER

You want to call your House rep now and tell them Trump needs to be impeached immediately for defying a Supreme Court order (re: Kilmar Abrego Garcia), which functionally voids our constitution and means no one in America has rights anymore.

I am not exaggerating.

As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.

This is not a drill.

Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.

Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).
