it's a shame that the "delayed reaction" part of autism is typically related to sadness/trauma, like what about listening to an album not thinking much about it in the moment and then a couple weeks later your brain's suddenly like "oh yeah that was good!"

yesterday i watched 3 separate videos on generally chill things where someone unexpectedly said the r-word. the main thing in common with the videos was that they were made by younger americans. idk what's happening over there but it needs to stop.

My latest for @nowthenmag.bsky.social:
Who Remembers Attention Spans?
Half of people in the UK think their attention span has shrunk. With "doomscrolling" becoming an increasing concern for policymakers, I ask: but is this even real though?

Who Remembers Attention Spans?
Why can't we focus on anything these days? Sean Morley takes a brief interlude from checking the latest death tolls to investigate our belief in the shrinking attention span.

following paul smith (of maxïmo park) on instagram was honestly the best decision i've made in recent times. he mainly just posts pictures of aesthetically pleasing covers of books he's read and things he find on walls

i think the uk should use the word foamer. or, at the very least, use spotter/anorak in the same grammatical and casual manner as foamer is used

i've been having some body shape/weight insecurities recently. just now i looked through some family photos from my childhood and seeing my relatives (and myself!) fluctuate in shape over time has really reminded me how truly pointless it is to worry about these things

the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

every time there's political violence discourse i think about how jo cox was assassinated in broad daylight by a fascist who shouted "britain first" as he shot her, and now nine years later her party is dedicating every moment in power to placating the ideology of her murderer
