Should go without saying but never date a cop and christ never marry one. Rule of thumb if he’s legally untouchable he’s ethically unfuckable. You don’t like that cop, you like buff men in tight clothing. I can show you more of those, better ones. Take my hand.

burned honey knows what’s up

Oh, everybody waits so long Oh, baby, why you waitin’ so long? Won’t you come on, come on? I’ve been walkin’ Central Park, singing after dark People think I’m crazy Stumbling on my feet, shuffling through the street Asking people, “What’s the matter with you, boy?” Sometimes, I want to say to, to myself Sometimes I say…

all homeless people deserve housing

yes even the ones that don’t work and are mentally ill and take lots of drugs

@darkrosespeaks don’t fucking reblog my posts if you wanna nitpick ugly cunt nobody deserves to live on the street. how bout you go fucking live in a ditch for a month and tell me how easy it is

there’s no “marriage equality” until disabled people can get married. congratulations on the legislation protecting interracial & gay marriage. don’t forget that people on SSDI still can’t get married. marriage equality would imply this legislation included us but it doesn’t. we still can’t get married

“but technically you CAN get married”

I live in a state without Medicaid expansion. If I get married I lose all access to medical care

that’s not “legal marriage” that’s fucking evil and deadly and not even possible for someone like me

Shoutout to people who speak "overly formally." You deserve to express yourself in whatever way feels most natural and fulfilling for you. The way you speak isn't pompous, annoying, or mockable; it's just how you communicate, and there's nothing wrong with that. Your voice adds creativity and diversity to this world, and I think that's amazing.

In 7th grade I used to get told I was "a grandma" and I was constantly asked "why do you use big words?" by the other kids in school. My former boss told me to "save it, because what you could say using 5 words, you use 10". I was 19 then, and I didn't know I was autistic until I was 27.

And this is one of the many reasons why self-identification is a thing. (Applicable to ADHDers as well.)

A 4 panel cartoon by Autball.

1: A green adult sits behind a desk, an open laptop and pencil holder sitting on it, and an ND adult (light blue/purple gradient) sits across from them. Green says, “I’m afraid you doh’t meet criteria for an autism diagnosis. I mean, you’re married, you went to college, you have a sense of humor and empathy… I just don’t see it.”

2: Same scene. ND says, “Uh huh. And do you ever take masking into consideration?” Green chuckles and replies, “Yeah, that’s not in the DSM, so no.”

3: Same scene. ND says, “Okay, but neither are any of the things you just said, so…” Green looks taken aback.

4: Same scene. Green recovers and says, “Whatever. I’m the trained diagnostician here and I say it’s just social anxiety and depression. Any idea what might have brought those on?” ND appears dissatisfied and unimpressed as they look back at them with half-closed eyes.]
