Conservatives finally say the quiet part out loud:

They would rather have a dead child than a trans child.

Please does anybody have the picture of the orange kitten sitting in front of old yellowed wood paneling and it’s smiling like this. The post where I saw it went something like “little kids before they learn how to smile in photos”

I fucking knew it, I SAID it: they're making ADHD people the next culture war targets. They will 'just ask questions' until we lose every scrap of ground we've gained in the last decade and more. We may not quite inspire the same level of hatred as a sexual minority, but we can very easily be made to inspire disdain and that also works.

They will strip us of our accomodations and our medications and try to stifle any sense of shared identity, and if that kills some of us, oh well. So long as it fuels another outrage cycle, fine.

So many of the tropes they've been using on trans people work extremely well on ADHD people too! "There are too many of these people suddenly! It must be a fad! It spreads through friend groups! And online! People are going private for diagnoses and that's bad! They are using pOwERfUl medical interventions and we think it's freaky!"

I saw the first ripples of this in terf circles about two years ago. And of course it's spread.

6% of British ADHD people lost their jobs in the last year thanks to the meds shortage. SIX PER CENT! And that just made these ghouls go "ooh, tasty, what else can we do?"

Recently an 'expert' was on the BBC saying people see ADHD diagnosis as a "golden ticket." Laurence Fox has been ranting that the condition doesn't exist and threatening "'you won't poison my child's body [with ADHD meds] against my consent"

People need to be aware this is going to get worse. Maybe, if we're lucky, it won't get really bad. But it's going to get worse than it is now.

#fun fact people with adhd are more likely to abuse substances than non-adhd people. UNLESS we are treated. in which case our risk is LOWER #so I guarantee the problem is (a) the fact that it's ALREADY so hard to get for the people who need it thus they abuse the substances #or (b) it's literally everyone except people with adhd. oh and (c) fun fact it's B. A just might ~also be involved~ #either way this is going to hurt the people who need it really bad.

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine

edit: @saffronlesbian made a video description for this post!!

[vd: a screen recording of a tweet from the 20th of April 2024 with 2.5 million views, from Ruhi @/ruhi_hi. the caption reads, "This video of this little Palestinian angel celebrating his bday in a refugee camp" followed by three emoji of a smiling face with teary eyes. the video clip is 11 seconds long and shows a one-year-old baby seated on the sandy ground, smiling hugely and clapping his hands while people sing to him from offscreen and a large cake is placed in front of him. stuck into the top of the cake is a decoration that reads "happy birthday" in english. the video has the tiktok handle @/ibrahim.jamal99 visible in it. /end vd.]

The social attitude regarding age is consistently getting weirder. You’re not ‘pushing 30’ you’re just in your late 20s. 30 is not old and neither is 40 while I’m at it. Growing older is an enormous privilege and displaying that age is a gorgeous component of life. Spending your days trying to reverse that grace breeds an eternally wasted life.

#I think our culture and our older folk (see: most people at some point) suffer greatly from viewing aging as degradation #I know that there's some sense in which this is true on literal levels. on biological and chemical and physical and neurological levels #but it's just change like anything else. change -- even ''degradation'' -- is neutral #I think it's sweet that after spending so much time alive and smiling your face dons badges of its happy longevity #the highest rates of suicide -- when age groups are chunked by tens beginning at 10 years old -- are in those 85+ years old #I believe that our culture's centering of individual worth around individual productivity (''usefulness'') is responsible for this #because yes. as you age your abilities change. for much of life this change is likely to be expansive in nature #at some point it gets progressively more restrictive and narrow #there isn't a set point at which this ''''turn'''' happens nor any consistent rate of change before or after #it's just different for everyone depending on a lot of epigenetic and environmental factors #and it's neutral that this happens. your /capital/ ''worth'' enters a dire jeopardy zone and #if you live long enough you WILL see it near if not entirely surpass 0 #your productivity dips into the negatives. you have become a net capital expense #and I think the people of western culture cannot bear that reality. #it feels so so wrong to take and have needs when you can't give any capital in turn. #we spend our lives impounded with the message that you must EARN your life through capital production. #you don't deserve to live -- at least not comfortably and happily -- if you aren't being profitable to someone. #you have to EARN all your BASIC necessities. you don't just GET food water shelter and hardly even air anymore #so when people of the west can't do that? can't produce capital? can't -- as the deep-seated belief commands -- EARN their right to live? #then they /have/ no right to live. in their minds #they refuse to keep on having their needs met by society when they can't return society with a profit. they end their lives. #SO MUCH needs to change in order to change this. but I believe it to be a powerful driving force behind aging negativity.
