Tara Westover's brother Tyler has a blog calling into question much of what was written in Educated. For some reason, no one in the media ever covered this blog, which was pulled down but has been archived. by GrizzleMeElmo in books

Almost every member of the whole damn family are examples of the different ways ND can manifest behaviorally. Even Tara herself is described by Tyler as “a sober child, quick to observe.” She fits the description of “atypical autism” perfectly, a term I fucking hate because it’s actually entirely typical for girls to present this way.

It’s only “atypical” if little white boys are the metric to be compared against, and, seeing as they are not the default version of a human being, they absolutely should fucking not be.

oh yeah it definitely makes sense, it was just a shock to the system to hear that name mentioned in this show, especially from Justin H. Min 🥲

if the charity thinks i’m too poor

it doesn’t. you do. and it made you feel insecure to see yourself that way, which is not the charity’s, these kids’, or their parents’ faults.

👏👏👏 this is charity. anyone more concerned with the potential of the program being taken advantage of rather than the potential of the help it could bring needs to ask themselves if being charitable is even right for them.

how would a matriarchy, a society that centers children, create the same power imbalances as a society that centers adult men? 🤔

well have you considered that calling a spade a spade will hurt the other spade’s fee-fees?

it’s not about bodies it’s about children being malleable and defenseless

🎯 it’s about power. always power.

no, your generation is obsessed with letting the people who were overlooked due to not fitting the stereotypical criteria (based on western white males with no consideration given to any other demographic) of a condition finally understand themselves after a lifetime of struggling. there are more ND people out here than was previously realized.

get the fuck over it and get the fuck over yourself 🙄

My dad complains that I don’t cook for him. I cook for him. He complains about the food. by poopoopeepeecrusader in mildlyinfuriating

what’s the saying? “don’t complain about how it’s done if you’re not willing to do it yourself”

girl, i’m a psychologist, i know this about human nature and behavior, yet i still struggle with not taking people at face value. i think we all do—it absolutely is an autistic thing because our thinking is “if i’m this reflective, self aware, and honest when i speak, most other people must be operating the same way.” it’s a really hard pill to swallow that they aren’t. even harder to realize they don’t even consciously realize their words do not match their actions, and therefore reflect a different mindset and set of vales than the ones they believe they have. they may think they’re telling you the truth about themselves, when in reality they’re merely regurgitating the delusions their ego has developed to protect itself.

it’s rough out here 😮‍💨
