do you ever get in one of those moods where you’re like feeling okay but you’re really sad at the same time and you just want to talk to someone and make them hug you but you feel annoying so you kind of just sit there being really sad
Alright, so Niantic/the devs of Pokémon Go are now promoting and supporting Autism Speaks, an organization literally hated by the vast majority of autistic people and allies, that are pretty well known to be pro autism eugenics bullshit, basically the PETA of autism
I am very disappointed by this and others are as well as we are tweeting them to tell them to reconsider their support.
Thank you to all the autistic folks putting in the emotional labour to take Niantic to task on this. Let’s keep pushing! Make them see the error of their ways!
Thanks for reblogging, and for everyone else who has, too. We’ve had a few folks in the wider disability community reblog and retweet, too, so that’s comforting.
‘Grimalkin’ is an old word for a domestic cat, especially an elderly female one. It was used often during the 15th-18th centuries, when women tried as witches were accused of having cats as their familiars. Even Shakespeare used it in Macbeth, when one of the three witches refers to her familiar, who takes the form of a cat, as ‘Graymalkin’. SourceSource 2Source 3
