Post No. 2,872 - Some interesting reading/viewing

Here are some llinks that might of interest or value:

  • “5-years No-Contact!?”   https://youtu.be/78uLDx2FeT8   Although this no-contact was likely initiated by attitudes to autism, the principle of using this for our mental health & wellbeing applies to other areas as well      
  • [CW - language]   “Realness, Rebellion and Sovereignty | The Self-Loving Witch”   https://youtu.be/DKot5Ot_9Zs   This is excellent on personal sovereignty - including self-love and personal responsibility/accountability, and has some excellent social commentary, including on amathiac assumptions by outsiders about witches/spirituality/mystics ... and I like the term “real life mystic”      
  • “Are You Angry? It Means You're Smart”   https://www.okdoomer.io/are-you-angry-it-means-youre-smart/   “So, watch out when someone bashes their opponents simply for using anger to get things done. They'll try to tell you that anger doesn't work, when in fact anger does work. That's precisely why they don't want their opponents to get angry. They don't want to listen to you or treat you with the respect you deserve. If you never get angry, it means nothing ever has to change.   Neoliberals love it when vibes displace action.”   And as someone who has seen what angry bigots can do, I’d argue there’s a case for managing anger as well ... Furthermore, I have seen and experienced what long term gains can come from other emotions - but the arguments in this article deserve genuine consideration       
  • “When Autistic YouTubers COLLIDE!”   https://youtu.be/9SXFTWQoIjs   This was a very engaging and interesting chat between two Autistic YouTubers       

If you appreciated this post, please consider promoting it - there are some links below, and there’s also Instagram. 

Note that I am cutting back on aspects of my posts - see here.

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
