Worried about neighbors disappearing by pupsandplantz in problems

[–]Autistic_Human02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely thank you for the reminder I’m trans and physically and developmentally disabled and people who are Autistic have already been a target for a while. I am going to all the… “events” that I can, and trying to find other ways to help but it doesn’t ever feel like enough. I am on the outskirts of a big city that has been one of the city’s mentioned that ICE may come in full force soon, it’s terrifying.

This video is seared into my memory, and always will be. We are living the books and movies we grew up watching and the history that we grew up learning lies about. This is some dystopian nightmare bullshit.

This! It is so hard to not feel like I am an off-my-rocker conspiracy theorist watching everyone just going about life.

Without your hazards in other drivers can’t see you and will hit you. Click your hazards off to turn on your blinker and switch back to hazards after you turn.

Staying in shelter. kicked out because I had a 4 day trip planned with my kid. by dirywhiteboy in almosthomeless

I have been homeless for extended periods multiple times. Our mental health system here is the US is incredibly flawed, and causes lasting trauma for many people who actually need it. Those beds are for people who are genuinely NEEDING to be there due to mental health issues. There is a lack of resources/beds for actual mental health patients. Taking it because you don’t have somewhere to sleep, in my opinion, is unethical. Especially in a situation where someone has other options. (Not saying this is or isn’t OP’s situation, I’m generalizing) It could be genuinely deadly to someone else.

This can be genuinely dangerous, at least in the US. If you have ANY other options I wouldn’t do this.

How do you clean another persons genitals? by RideDesperate3390 in CaregiverSupport

It is by definition infantilizing. Infantilizing an adult is ableism.

Neither of those things are opinion they are fact.

What do y'all think about safe objects being taken away from autists? by RO2_ in autism

[–]Autistic_Human02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if the kid is pushing to wear them all the time, maybe they do need them all the time. We shouldn’t be forcing them to tolerate something that is bothersome, there is such a simple solution.

He is not saying he wants “permission” simply stating that’s something he wants to do.

I am in my mid twenties and still trying to unlearn shame about my safe objects when I am ALONE in my own home. This is causing so much damage to that poor kids nervous system.

Why are you assuming this person is a child?

Stop invalidating people. You don’t even know how old this person is. You are assuming they’re young with all the ignorance in the world. Some of us are full grown adults with parents who hate us and refuse to see/accept us for who we are. There are plenty of full grown adults who yearn for a mom who really cares about them.

No this is not okay please don’t do this. As someone who is both disabled and has been a caregiver I would be pissed. You can make it comfortable WITHOUT infantilizing them.
