oh wow this looks stellar, I love willows so much! they’re always so beautiful, you really got their likeness down in how you drew out the foliage. stunning work!
someone responded to the article criticizing its framing and made this amazing statement
I suspect a better frame through which to present the authors’ data would be “Right temporoparietal junction underlies pervasive moral inconsistency in Neurotypical Spectrum Disorder”.
I’m obsessed
these assholes are really like wow! how can we make autistic tendencies to uphold their morality regardless of social pressure a bad thing? slap dysfunctional abnormality on that I guess. the framing of this paper is horrendous. they took a really cool study and warped it to push their biases that autistics are inherently impaired. allistics really can’t help themselves.
also the wording of calling the allistic participants in the study “healthy controls” as opposed to the “obviously diseased” autistic participants is big gross.
the prioritizing autonomy thing is absolute bullshit, I’m still astounded that’s the leading argument for those supporting this. there’s no choice here. this is canadas “oh so polite” way of framing blatant eugenics by imposing horrible conditions on poor and disabled people and saying it’s their choice if they want to die because of it. it’s just so much easier to coerce them into being killed than actually providing services and aid that would improve their quality of life. like this shit is so fucking insidious.
the autonomy argument just gets me cause its like, oh you want to take away a disabled persons ability and right to choose?? like fuck off you are not advocating for their autonomy, you want them to choose to die so your hands feel more clean when you kill them. I’m so tired and upset about the lives bill c-7 will take.
bean soup! bean! soup!
you make me want to finally learn how to make it. I bet your homemade hummus is amazing, enjoy!
yeah I’ve found it’s just so incredibly hard to make any lasting friendships since graduating highschool (and by extension of that, since being a kid). it’s difficult to make friends and meet people in person unless you’re being made to meet with a group on a daily or at least semi regular basis. which really sucks since I don’t really go anywhere anymore. I find that anytime I speak to an acquaintance/stranger its only a superficial or transactional exchange, a very lonely culture to exist in.
I do love the friends I made in online spaces though, I feel more genuine connection in my interactions with them with those superficial and transactional elements less present. but I just wish there weren’t so many barriers to meeting people and developing friendships in person.
It’s not my favourite analog horror project honestly. I think that the creator is having a lot of fun with it but it’s not anything I haven’t seen before. Some of the parts that are meant to come across as scary appear more silly to me or just over the top edgy as a shock factor grab. I’m still going to keep up with it (although I’ve yet to watch the latest episodes) but yeah I’m still waiting for more interesting developments to happen cause otherwise it’s not interesting nor scary enough to hold my interest.
To recommend some other analog horror content if you’re interested, I’ve been really enjoying Gemini Home Entertainment! There were a few episodes that really did scare me, it’s a very creative series.
