When I was a kid a teacher told me off for throwing my diabetic friend's blood test stuff away for her bc if I accidentally touched the blood I "could catch it" -_-

what's the most confidently and wrongly a grown adult has ever argued with you - I'll start.

at a work dinner - for scientists - a woman there was convinced that all of sign language was just spelling out words letter-by-letter. she was saying that what we consider sign language is just people spelling out full English words, and she said "it's amazing because it's the only universally-understood language." cue silence from the table.

she fully believed that deaf people in China were spelling out English words letter by letter in ASL to communicate, and that distinct words did not exist. we kept trying to correct her. she replied that it's one of her special interests and she's done extensive research on the subject.

sad that modern society no longer knows the thrill of shopping for cds that may or may not be laden with cursed bat sound waves

A while back my pharmacist saw my deadname on my profile and accidentially called it out, he corrected and deleted my deadname from the system so only my preferred name shows up now. There was a crowd of people behind me, so as he hands over the pills he apologized, in equal tone and volume as when he called my deadname and lied saying it's been a long day and he didn't mean to call out -his own- name. I quietly told him it was fine and he didn't need to do that for my sake.

His response: "No, it's my name now."

I went to the pharmacist yesterday, his nametag is my deadname. He informed me he's immigrating and in the process he's changed his first name to my deadname to have an English sounding name. That's why he's now able to get a reprint of his nametag to be my deadname. And repeated, with the intense seriousness of someone who is going to die on this hill: "It's mine now. Not yours. I'm taking." His tone indicated that decision is final.

Bro literally deadnamed me once, and has committed to flat out stealing my deadname. It's his now. Legally. Officially. I over heard his co-workers call him by the name.

I think the internet would be a lot less dumb if we got over this idea of a perfect education and understand that you can't know everything, but you need to keep learning.

I mean, there are all those "why weren't we taught this?" posts when it's like

-Some stuff should be taught and wasn't, but you're in charge of your own growth now

-Some stuff is taught and you weren't paying attention or you might've been paying attention but it was also kinda boring and years before it would be relevant to you so you entirely braindumped it

-Some stuff just isn't reasonable to include in an education for children.

-You need to keep learning new things and re-learning old things. Oh no, you didn't get it all together in your early 20s? Nobody does! The people who think they did are some of the loudest and dumbest motherfuckers on the planet and they tend to work for places like Breitbart and the Daily Wire, and unsurprisingly, despite their penchant for "debate" they can only win against children

got a major pest problem this year actually

Recently, while staring far too long at a potato chip, it occurred to me that the ridges could possibly be used to create a lenticular effect. So I got out some chip dip (and the smallest paint brush I have) to test it out. I started with a simple 2-frame illustration of a football and a basketball, then I painted a little sour cream and onion dip bird. 🥔🕊️ - via my new @brockdavisart instagram

Disability benefits shouldn’t be tied to the income of a disabled person’s partner/spouse/parent.

Do you hear me?

DISABILITY BENEFITS SHOULDN’T BE TIED TO THE INCOME OF A DISABLED PERSON’S PARTNER/SPOUSE/PARENT.

This is the straight forward way to deprive a disabled person of their financial freedom and independence and trap them into possible abusive relationships.
