I made some depressing “growing up autistic” memes

And yeah this is for the adhd peeps too

This account is primarily for sharing videos and photos from regular people living in Gaza, but in this post I want to highlight what it is like for someone who has been able to leave.

Maram Alshurafa is a dental student from Palestine. In December, her family was able to send her to safety in Canada.

Despite being somewhere physically safer than Gaza, she is experiencing a new hardship feeling isolated and afraid for her family in Palestine.

Maram is on Instagram @ maram_alshurafa. She is raising funds to help the rest of her family escape. You can help by donating here.

Every single time I say the phrase “I was classically trained in the art of multiple choice tests” everyone in the room who’s not a millennial laughs at my joke while all the other millennials in the room immediately look like they just walked in on a funeral by accident.

Comic idea from my dream: every morning you give your pet People Juice and send em to school. They gotta learn calculus and read Hemingway just like people do

I probably won’t make this into a real comic…. prooobably………. :3c

Anyways apropos of nothing, here's an interesting video where an MRI tech demonstrates what happens when you have any loose metal in a room with an MRI running

Now, I'm no medical specialist, nor am I am expert in forensic investigations or even an expert in weaponry and munitions.

But when I hear "laptops, guns, explosives and munitions were stored in an MRI suite" that's the kind of thing that makes me go "huhhhh?????????"

[video description: an mri technician demonstrating what happens when you have a paperclip attached to a lanyard in a room with an MRI running. As he walks closer to the MRI, the paperclip is pulled very strongly by the magnetic fields towards the machine, so the lanyard is pulled horizontally]

Anyways here's a link to the video:

yet another fun thing about camels is that, white ruminants, they’ll eat what whatever they can find in the desert, whether that’s leaves, seeds, thorns... or meat... or bones...

So recently the mayor of my city placed a bunch of sharp stones under a bridge commonly used by homeless people to escape the harsh tropical storms we experience during the summer

A priest decided that was an utterly anti humanitarian course of action (rightfully so) and so his solution.. was to destroy those rocks with a hammer.

I'm not Catholic (in fact, I grew up Jewish and am now atheist) but I feel this is what religion is supposed to be about. Using the divine to help humans behave a little more... human.

If anyone deserves a raise it’s the employee from four seasons total landscaping who answered the phone and went “yup, we can set up a podium and everything” and just acted like nothing was out of the ordinary.

One thing no one ever talks about in fandom is the pain of finding out one of your favorite ao3 authors is a total jerk. Writing a fic inspired by theirs while linking and giving credit, only for them to leave a comment insulting you and calling you weird for making a fic of their fic. Using the names they gave to unnamed canon characters (a common practice called fandom name sharing) and linking and giving credit, only for them to leave a comment calling you a plagiarist for stealing the names and threatening to send their fans after you. Finding out they have a history of doing stuff like this, and finding it practically impossible to separate your enjoyment of their work from your incredibly negative experiences with the author. Trying your best to avoid their fics as a result even though they wrote at least half of the fics of your favorite ship. True pain. Never meet your heroes kids.
