Daily OpusEverything I write is freely rebloggable. Just keep the source and tell people about my books :D [Until I decide otherwise, my pronouns are Ze/Hir/Hirself. As in "Ze went to the shops to get hir medication hirself". Thank you for the respect.]
Google and autism speaks have teamed up to create a database of DNA to basically eventually eradicate autism.
This is literally eugenics. Attempting to eradicate us wether it’s through violence or through progressively trying to remove us from the gene pool is fucking eugenics and the fact that more people aren’t talking about it concerning.
Here’s a link to the site if you want “proof” and if you don’t understand why autism speaks is bad, look it up on ecosia or some other search engine.
This is just so wrong on so many levels but… Am I the only person who’s totally effed up over the fact that “MSSNG” seems a lot like “missing” as in “missing child” as in how they fearmonger that autism has “stolen” or trapped a child?
It’s meant to. It’s supposed to be something like “missing link”. You know, like the “missing link” between monkeys and humans. The parallel they’re drawing there isn’t a coincidence
@staff are you fucking kidding me right now?! You’re limiting text posts to 100 text blocks (aka paragraphs). What the absolute fuck.
Since you couldn’t take out fanfic writers with the purge so you’re just fucking up formatting for text posts until they leave? Is that your plan?
Would this count as a text block?
100 is a lot unless you write a lot of dialogue. I wonder if just linking fics on my word press would work because god damn this site is making things difficult. It’s like they’re trying to have people not use it.
yeah I noticed this, and I completely hate it lmao because I do write a lot of dialogue and I write small paragraphs for easy readability ): I might have to post everything on AO3 and just link it on here :/
@staff - answers would be appreciated. ‘Cause being able to link to a site that actually makes me a soupcon of scratch is one of my few reasons for staying on this hellsite.
In fact - if anyone knows, I’d appreciate the heads-up.
Why does this woman want the book banned? Because vagina. Because the book describes Lacks’ discovery of a tumor on her cervix, via her vagina.
But it wasn’t enough for this Puritan mom that her 15 year old child got a different reading assignment so he wouldn’t have to learn about the horrors that vaginas exist. She wants the school district to ban the book, for everyone, so that the other 59,000 students can’t read it either. She “just feel[s} that strongly about it being out of the hands of our children.” And because she has feelings, everyone else and their educational opportunities are just SOL.
A family being locked in an annex for two years, hiding from a gas chamber is offensive.
If you read Anne Frank’s story, and her vagina is what offended you, you need to find your missing humanity.
Cancer is offensive.
A woman being treated like a human petri dish at the only hospital that admitted black patients is offensive.
If you read Henrietta Lacks’ story, and her vagina is what offended you, you need to find your missing humanity.
This is the type of stuff I want to explore, unpack, and get others to think about critically in my Sex and Censorship museum (which I’m still fundraising for, by the way). Why are people seemingly so disturbed by sex but not brutal violence and dehumanization, like genocide and human testing? How did it come to be that one lone sex-phobe can yield such disproportionate power over others? How do issues of race, class, and gender come into play with censored sexual expression? Things I want to explore in my museum.
