  • I can, mental health services in this country are shit and taboo. But being autistic doesn’t excuse being a deviant arsehole.

    Pulling down a colleague’s trousers and then going “it’s because I’m autistic!” only solidifies that he’s an arsehole, trying to hide his actions behind a label that he thinks now makes him untouchable.

    Concessions and understanding should be shown to autistic people. Sudden changes in plans, for example, may cause a strong emotional reaction that “neurotypicals” wouldn’t experience, but it doesn’t mean autistic people are free to completely do as they wish without repercussions

    Actually, what am I saying? Yes, it should allow autistic people to be above the law! Brb, I’ve got a left wing government to install, nobody can stop me!












  • Generally I disagree with most calls for defederation because I didn’t join Lemmy to join an echo chamber. We’re all enriched by diversity of thought and opinion. Even if we disagree with those thoughts and opinions. And playing “which account has access to which servers?” is an annoying game to play. Defederation should, in my opinion, be the last resort that a server takes.

    But this instance is bot spam, it’s not enriching the Fediverse but homogenising it with Reddit.

    So no objections from me, good call flamingos!







  • “It is now nearly £10 million for a door which does not work. Somebody accountable must be identified and should perhaps resign for this terrible waste of public money,” he said.

    Meanwhile, Conservative Peer Lord Hayward estimated that the costs incurred from ensuring the door was manned at all times — in order to be opened — amounted to roughly £2,500 (€2,890) per week.

    £2,500 x 52 weeks = £130,000 a year.

    But there’s no money for disabled people. Gotta tighten the purse strings, sorry! Have you tried pulling yourself up by your boot straps?
