society, dark humor, misogyny, machism, invisible problems

"why cant i joke about rape?

Clearly you can, since you did- you're just mad I'm holding you accountable for your words.
Jokes do not exist in some
magical vacuum outside of society- rape jokes reinforce dangerous myths about rape perpetrators and victims, dismiss and trivialize the experiences of rape victims, and if you are joking with a rapist and don't realize it, they interpret is as condoning their behavior. It’s an issueworth being “sensitive” about."

autism, labels, diagnoses

"in the last few decades, we have detected thousands of planets outside or solar system. they did not suddenly appear at the time we found them. no one calls it an "exoplanet epidemic". the planets were always there, just previously undiscovered. this is a tweet about autism."

·dont blameshift/defend (but u)
·no passive voice (sorry u were offended)

kindness, socializing

"dont let the world fool you: consistent kindness is the most quietly powerful thing

if you ever want to engage in villainy and undermine the social order: be especially kind to the people society has rejected. care about the ones the world would convince you dont 'deserve' your kindness.

i genuinely mean this when i say to you: the ultimate act of rebellion is insisting in compassion and grace in a compassionless world"
