YouTube video with 10 million views where man exploits his autistic son so people donate money to a charity associated with Autism Speaks, which has no autistic board members and has recently partnered with Google to find what genes cause autism in order to ‘cure’ it (eugenics).
This video has 10 million views, is #10 on YouTube’s trending page, has already received $700k+ in donations, and has many popular Youtubers like MrBeast in the comments praising this man.
Aside from being associated with Autism Speaks, Next for Autism also supports ABA therapy and a member of their leadership, Alison Bush, worked for an ABA based center, First Leap, before joining Next for Autism.
Autism Behavioral Analysis forces children to suppress their symptoms of autism, such as forcing them to make eye contact, forcing them to stop stimming, and forcing them to deal with or ignore overstimulation, among other things. Nearly half of all ABA patients have PTSD and are more likely to experience it than people not exposed to ABA.
This is absolutely disgusting, as a father to an autistic boy, this man should know better than to support an organization that harms autistic children and is associated with one that wants to eradicate people like his son from existence, and is partnering with Jimmy Kimmel of all people, someone who has done blackface multiple times in the past. Great spokespeople for Autism, guys! (sarcastic)
Please spread this both by reblogging and sharing on other social media sites, and contact the people involved in the Color the Spectrum event to tell them that this is not OK.
Tumblr deleted my long ass rant while I was in the middle of writing it so you’re spared and will only get a summed up version
Long story short; your abs are supposed to be covered with a healthy, protective layer of fat. The shape Jason Momoa is in during his movies is achieved by a diet designed to lower his body fat to unhealthy numbers, dehydrating him and enhancing his abs with make up. This is what ripped, muscular, healthy person looks like on their off time. If you think this is a dad bod, for the love of everything that is holy, shut up and absolutely never comment on a man’s body ever again. I mean hell, you can still see his damn v-line, what fucking dad bod has that?!
Don’t believe me? Google some bodybuilders who are off their contest diet. The men who literally make a living for having defined muscles. For 360 days a year, they do not look like the way you think they do. During a bodybuilding contest, these men’s body fat is under 7%, they’re dehydeated and covered in fake tan that helps the muscles show up. And it’s literally only for that day, because it’s extremely unhealthy. Same goes for actors who are known for being ripped - they’re at their worst when they’re filming. This exact same shit happened with Vin Diesel few years ago with people getting a paparazzi shot of his “beer belly” and I’m genuinely worried of the young men who grow up in this society thinking being muscular means having defined abs 24/7.
Jason Momoa looks ripped and healthy, yall are just blind with unrealistic standards.

Made a leaf crown but I was already the queen of the forest ..(goblin queen)
YOOOO
Would also be really annoying if they wore heat resistant gloves to throw back the hot tear gas canisters and if this got shared to all those protesting…

How do you (“how does one”) shop for a therapist?
Can you call up a therapist and be like “hi, I’m therapist shopping”? Can you schedule an appointment with a therapist and then be like “actually I have some questions and I want to spend part of this appointment talking about your practice and whether or not it is garbage?”? Are you expected to phone interview/screen your therapists if you are shopping around for a therapist?
If you’re seeing one therapist are you supposed to/not supposed to tell them if you start seeing another therapist? Is it possible to cheat on your therapist?
Heard some important information on Twitter today, and thought I’d post it here for anyone who may not have heard it. This is actually a thing, devised by human rights organisation called Karma Nirvana.
