Elite Dangerous + Odyssey DLC is on sale for $10 so I bought it (even though I do already own the game for free on the Epic Games store but I’ve basically given my account to my sister and barely use it anyways, plus I didn’t have that DLC)

would not recommend if you don’t like staring into the void

serious post so please feel free to skip if you wish

something that really rubs me the wrong way is how people talk about autistic people. now i’m not autistic myself, but i am dyslexic (i’m not sure if that really counts as neurodivergent and i’ve always felt weird saying that, idk it feels minimising of people with other neuro-divergence like autistic people to me) and even i face a lot of assumptions that i’m incapable of reading or whatever, it’s annoying and belittling, especially when dyslexia makes you feel stupid on top of that. but the way folks talk about autistic people almost sees them as subhuman, as if they’re incapable of living meaningful lives and that its a travesty when someone is diagnosed as autistic. you see it a lot rn from america thanks to rfk jr (who i despise tbh), but even over here in the uk you have these anti-vax losers who would rather their kid get measles and risk serious health complications or death rather than being autistic (even though vaccines don’t cause autism). i hate how we see neurodivergent people as a failure, something to be corrected, its this idea that they are the weakest of our species and not just people who have brains that see the world differently. autistic people can and have done incredible things and i want them to thrive just as much as anyone else and i hate anyone, especially politicians, who see them as less valuable people just for being autistic, its disgusting and dehumanising.
