My Players Once Spent Thirty Minutes Trying To Get Answers Out Of A Giant Talking Rock In The Middle

This is your yearly reminder that, in the lead up to Halloween, you should never use activated charcoal to spookify your food/drink

Activated charcoal will nullify your meds.

Anything you take orally can and will be absorbed by the activated charcoal, preventing it from doing you any good. There's a reason it's used in emergencies to counteract poisoning!!

If you are American, PLEASE SUPPORT THE SSI RESTORATION ACT OF 2021

This new bill has been introduced in both the house and the Senate.

Among other things, it will:

Raise the monthly disability income by just over 30 percent - bringing it to poverty level.

Remove penalties for recieving financial help from friends and family.

Increase the amount of assets a disabled person may have from $2,000 to $10,000 (this hasn't been updated since 1989)

Update outside income restrictions to allow disabled people to receive up to $399 a month without reducing their benefits.

REWARD, not penalize, people who want to receive additional income while on social security income.

REMOVE THE MARRIAGE BAN YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT THIS WILL REMOVE THE MARRIAGE BAN

For those unaware current regulations do a lot to oppress disabled people. In fact marriage equality doesn't even extend to disbled people who risk having their benefits reduced or outright taken away if they marry someone. This means that in common law states disabled people can't even live with their significant other or they risk losing their financial independence.

Current regulations mean that if you're disbled you can't have so much as one penny over $2,000 to your name. So buying a car and gaining more independence or freedom is largely out of the question for disabled people.

Current regulations penalize social security recipients who receive income from outside sources, even if those sources are reimbursement. Did you get paid to babysit for a few hours? That's income, and you get your benefits reduced. Did you loan a friend $10 and they pay you back? The government considers that $10 income, and you get your benefits reduced.

These aren't mere anecdotes - these are all examples of actual things that have happened to disbled people I know, and if you have any disabled friends in your life I'm sure they can tell you the same stories.

If you value marriage equality, if you value financial independence, if you value the rights of disbled people, please PLEASE support this bill! Contact your reps, vote, and make noise! This is a great thing!

Hi, if you care about us Autistic folks then please boost this

With Elon Musk coming out as autistic a lot of people are giving the "all representation is good representation" excuse, or celebrating it for any myriad of ways.

Please understand what exactly is wrong with this representation: Elon Musk is NOT on our side.

When some rich famour influential man comes out as Autistic, he will now by default lead the narrative around neurodivergence in the mainstream. People will see his views as correct and the foremost source on these matters. They will see his ableist language, outdated diagnosis, his ideas of "curing" autism, and his tendency to chalk his oppressive behaviours up to autism, and they will see that as the standard for how to talk about Autistic people. And further infantilise Autistic people.

Not to mention, we absolutely do not want the face of Autism to be an apartheid-profiteering exploitative billionaire in the first place. That's not an autistic icon. That's the enemy. He represents the very system that oppresses us.

Neurotypical people, please take this time to flood social media instead with autistic people who actually are involved in activism every single day and tired from not getting enough engagement. Amplify those voices. Otherwise this is nothing but a slippery slope that leads us towards erasure, repression, and even extinction.

COME ON, PEOPLE! WE'RE BANNING THE CONFEDERATE FLAG!

MoveOn

Make Flying the Confederate Flag Illegal

Compromising with the southern states after the civil war only led to Jim Crow laws which lasted into the middle of the 20th century. Every

They are talking about a second Krystallnacht, let us be clear about this. For the week of J20, be careful, support your locals, and be armed and ready to dip.

With Halloween around the corner, I’d like to remind everyone again that there will be no screamers or jump scares or whatnot on here. This blog is safe from that.
