Twinamoto - I Love The Dark Knight Trilogy

we’ve made autism into a small insignificant personality trait/identity like being queer and that’s actually so fucking wrong and insulting

37.9% of autistics have an intellectual disability

1/3rd of autistics are completely nonspeaking

most autistics will not be able to hold a job, go to college, or live on their own

autism rarely travels alone and has many medical comorbidities like epilepsy, mitochondrial disorders, and genetic disorders (which are the most common comorbidities - these aren’t rare complications.)

we can have discussions about autism and ableism and how society sees us without spreading misinformation.

autism is a lifelong, often debilitating neurodevelopmental and genetic disorder that affects how one communicates and interacts with the world. it is not “just being socially awkward” or feeling nervous in social situations. it is a neurological disability. start treating it like one.

apparently the cops arrested fuckin Bicycles Georg today

A guy to remember

Robert E. Lee himself refused to wear his confederate uniform after the confederacy’s defeat in the American civil war. At his funeral he was not buried in it and no one in attendance was permitted to wear theirs either. He also declared that his confederate battle flag (what we now call “the confederate flag”) never be raised again and that it was a flag of treason.

So there’s your “southern heritage.”

It is what it is

I can't quite place the aura this cat exudes

I found the full video! It was posted last December on YouTube. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrazL120rG0

Wally Schirra made a parody video of Alan Shepard. On the 6th anniversary of Freedom 7, this video, called “Astronaut Hero, or How to Succeed in Business Without Flying … Much”, was shown at a fundraiser in front of hundreds of people. Schirra narrated the funny film that featured planes crashing, Freedom 7’s recovery, and the first two space chimps: Ham and Enos. It featured the picture above also. The film humorously made fun of Shepard. At the end of the five-minute video, Shepard unexpectedly came on the screen and said “Wally, I expect you to be at my office at oh-eight-hundred Monday morning”. Schirra did not know about that little scene that Shepard had added.

I have only found a four-minute version of this film on a PBS site. That version was posted over five years ago. Is there a site online where the full video is found??? I really want to see the entire thing.

My favourite's the Apollo 12 episode, Apollo 8 a close second :) Nice blog! xx

Thanks!! Yeah the apollo 12 episode is one of my favorites too. I also liked the Apollo 9 episode because it was cool learning how the LM was made

IMDB Ratings of First Man

Why does First Man have 5.5 stars on IMDB, yet an 89% on Rotten Tomatoes? Do people really hate the movie First Man, or are trollers and moon conspirators rating the movie low even without seeing it?

I have seen another movie that right after release, a ton of people rated the movie one star on IMDB without seeing the movie. I’m wondering if the same thing is happening. Why did 196 people on IMDB gave First Man one star???????????????????????
