    I’d never heard of S mode until my aging mother needed to get on a Zoom call with her doctor, and I couldn’t install the app on her laptop because of it.

    I set her up to use the web browser mode instead. Leaving it on was for the best at that point. I kinda figured S mode meant senior mode like for old people or something, idk. It certainly prevented her from installing anything bad by accident: and it was just a youtube and email thing for her anyway.









  • So much of my “disability” would just go away if people had the decency to fucking educate themselves and expect me to know everything. I put myself out there and talk to people. I’ve done my fucking part.

    I understand you’re angry, but maybe you’re not pleasant to be around? Some people are mean, some people are annoying, some people are rude. And they rarely realize it.

    You can blame your social situation on your diagnosis until the cows come home, but you can’t use it to blackmail people into enjoying your presence.

    All of those are limited resources to which you have no right,” White said.

    But then earlier:

    The nonprofit says it believes allyship from men is important and noted it cannot ban men from attending due to federal nondiscrimination protections in the US.

    So… We’d like to discriminate against men and would conversely see no problem if someone else hosted male only hiring events…?
