  • I think my philosophy on life and “greatness” boils down to this:

    “Man’s dearest possession is life. It is given to him but once, and he must live it so as to feel no torturing regrets for wasted years, never know the burning shame of a mean and petty past; so live that, dying, he might say: all my life, all my strength were given to the finest cause in all the world──the fight for the Liberation of Mankind” ― Nikolai Ostrovsky




  • Because I should contribute instead of just complaining: Autism has at least allowed me to process things in a thorough manner and break down a lot of stuff I was taught and just accepted bc i was an isolated teen and wanted to fit in. I would never have gotten to where I am if it wasnt for the ability to question stuff that doesnt work out as proclaimed and following the gut instinct to not give a fuck about my sorroundings opinion on that.

    Sidenote: a lot of the oppressed are “cringe” - capitalism-conditioned subjects don’t want to touch suffering because they are either taught to blame the oppressed for their suffering or are taught/brought up with the assumption that things like fatness, being ND, trans, blackness or homelessness e.g. are contagious and thus treat fellow humans as if they were disease-carriers. We have to unlearn coolness, machismo, chauvinism to unimagineable extents.
