You clearly misunderstood. I wasn’t saying a thing about a link between rape and autism, I was pointing out that the term “triggering” was being misused so badly that the sentence became nonsense. Talking about rape doesn’t trigger PTSD in a person who was raped anymore than talking about war triggers it in a combat vet. PTSD triggers can be anything, and are...

BEST OF STFU RACISTS: Black History Month
stfuracists:
Today is the last day of Black History Month for 2012. It’s way too short a celebration.
After I’m done writing and editing for this blog, I think the posts I’ll always be the happiest with are my profiles for Black History Month. Not only did I put the most work into these posts, since I was trying to accurately but concisely portray important parts of history that are all too...

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has said that marriage should remain between opposite-sex couples - because anything else would be forcing unwanted change on the UK. The comments came in a speech at a World Council of Churches gathering in Geneva, yesterday. There, he told delegates that while anti-discrimination legislation was beneficial and...
It's Extra Magic Bonus Happy Leap Year Day!
neil-gaiman:
Please celebrate Leap Year Day in the traditional manner by taking a writer out for dinner.
It’s been four years since many authors had a good dinner. We are waiting. Many of us have our forks or chopsticks at the ready - some of us have had them ready for days. We will repay you by drifting off while the food is being served and then suddenly scribbling something down on a scrap...

See, as a stutterer, I’m deeply offended. Never have I ever tried to say, “I love french fries,” and have it come out as, “RACISM-RACISM-RACISM, MISOGYNY-MISOGYNY-MISOGYNY.” BIG difference.
