Obsessed With This Muppet Clip Where Gonzo Breaks A Piece Of Machinery And Then Just Stares At The Camera

obsessed with this muppet clip where Gonzo breaks a piece of machinery and then just stares at the camera in an empty room and says ‘GUILT’ in the most harrowing way possible

Autism Speaks fought against and killed a bill (1047) that:

- was meant to ensure school staff would be trained to support nonspeaking students before school starts

- would protect nonspeaking students who need AAC from segregation

- would prevent the use of IQ tests to deny access to AAC

IDEA is supposed to put these protections in place, but they don’t happen. This bill was brought forth because nonspeaking students are still being unfairly segregated and not offered AAC at all.

Teachers want to support nonspeaking people! They want the training!

And Autism Speaks just killed the bill that would help so many nonspeaking people.

So tell me again how they’re so great, because once more they are silencing autistic voices.

Autism Speaks doesn’t want nonspeaking autistic people to speak because it will break the carefully crafted tragedy narrative they’ve built up and struggle to maintain.

A link to the Twitter thread is under the cut so tumblr doesn’t eat this out of tags.

A mom to a nonspeaking child tried to advocate to help her child and people like him and was basically shot down by Autism Speaks.

Twitter thread.

Autism Speaks came into the replies trying to gaslight the op, and they got splattered by autistic people.

I knew there was a reason I align myself with Chaotic Good /j

CANNOT stop thinking about the Josh fight. Over 100 guys named josh got together to fight with pool noodles and they all decided that the winner was a five year-old so tiny the Burger King crown was too big for him. And they lifted him into the air and cheered like he was Simba. Earth is a good place to be after all

Still gotta add a little color
