rawing people on couches is so hard yet most of my ideas involve that

Wow they love Truman

The Truman Show (1998)

A model of Seahaven is shown very briefly before they discover that Truman is missing. A dollhouse modeled after Truman’s house is also advertised during the show.

Quick someone show this to all the old shrinks who “didn’t want to label” us

“The difference between fake and real Italian glass”

Marina Ovsiannikova, a producer of the state-owned Channel 1, disrupts the channel’s live news feed with an anti war poster: “Stop the war / Don’t trust the propaganda / They’re lying to you here.”

She released a pre-recorded personal statement. Here is the English translation (x)

we’ve made autism into a small insignificant personality trait/identity like being queer and that’s actually so fucking wrong and insulting

37.9% of autistics have an intellectual disability

1/3rd of autistics are completely nonspeaking

most autistics will not be able to hold a job, go to college, or live on their own

autism rarely travels alone and has many medical comorbidities like epilepsy, mitochondrial disorders, and genetic disorders (which are the most common comorbidities - these aren’t rare complications.)

we can have discussions about autism and ableism and how society sees us without spreading misinformation.

autism is a lifelong, often debilitating neurodevelopmental and genetic disorder that affects how one communicates and interacts with the world. it is not “just being socially awkward” or feeling nervous in social situations. it is a neurological disability. start treating it like one.

i am not a religious person…….. but if you’re out there, giant rat that makes all of the rules,

Things I’m learning from my internship

College Tired is different than Work Tired, in both intensity and pride.

There is a microwave in the break room. Do not use it.

The farthest cubicle wedged into the corner by the supply closet does not count as a “corner office.”

Do not be concerned about the people who poop at work. Be concerned about the people who don’t.

Your boss will only come to check on you when you are doing something stupid.

When you hear a low-flying airplane, do not gasp and rush to the windows to look for it. This is largely regarded as Unprofessional.

Always pack more food than you think you’ll eat.

If you stay too late in the evening, you will hear faint whimpers in the distance. This is the microwave in the break room. Do not go to check on it.

Throwing a stress ball over the walls of the cubicles counts as team building.

It is perfectly acceptable to sit at your desk wrapped in a blanket eating Cheez Its. It is not acceptable to offer Cheez Its to the IT person who comes to set up your programming software.

You may bond with your coworkers by offering them Cheez Its.

Even though you work for 8 hours and sleep for 8, there are not 8 hours left at the end of the day. Nobody knows where those hours went. Just go with it.

Every office has a Janet. If yours does not have one, you aren’t looking hard enough.

Do not attempt to guess at the unspeakable horrors which have befallen the microwave in the break room. It is always worse than you think.

Internal monologue scrolling through Tumblr on this fine Tuesday evening:
