"My child was perfect and has been replaced by a changeling baby," but in the year 2025.
some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.

it's a strange thing to ponder that you might have seen the peak of human technological achievement in terms of usability, adaptability and capability and it was running Windows 98

“Nuclear jailbreaking poetry too dangerous to share” is the kind of detail that proves that God, too, is a Borges fan

I think my robot vacuum is the exact same kind of neurodiverse as me, because no matter how many rooms I tell it to vacuum it always says “I estimate this will take 5 minutes to complete.” Same, RoboVac, same!

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.
JANET:
Is it really necessary to-
LIZ [Grabbing Janet by the collar]:
THE PEAS HAVE GOT AI, JANET
[Cut to an advert ending screen, with the bag of peas and the slogan:
AI PEAS: Just 'Peas' for god's sake buy the AI peas.

The notion that those who took part in slavery or conquest were merely abiding by the moral standards of their time necessary excludes those they targeted and kidnapped from those standards; *they* were never confused about this. But other white people were frequently disgusted by this stuff too!
Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison.
Below, are the accounts of Bartlomé de las Casas.

"Here's Why That's Is a Good Thing" made me laugh with joy! Changing the narrative from 'autism=bad' to something so much better and more life-affirming.
Unfounded claims about an “autism epidemic” usually come from news or media outlets that are trying to sell stories, or from grievance parent-led orgs that focus more on eliminating autism than on supporting autistic people. At TPGA.

Autism Rates Are Now 1 in 36. Here's Why That Is a Good Thing.
The new 1 in 36 autism rate means the CDC is getting better at finding and diagnosing existing autism, not finding higher autism rates.
