  • Unpopular opinion: I just really wish a lot of people would just stop spreading the same misconceptions about Autism Speaks over and over again. It’s gotten so tiring that even it’s YouTube channel had to release two videos about it.

    It may not be perfect but there is nothing we can do about it.

    I don't think that making petitions is necessarily a waste of time. It may not make the organization disappear, but spreading aware some of the issues within Autism Speaks can still be helpful. Most autistic people I've seen complaining about Autism Speaks would rather see the organization make better changes instead of erasing it completely too.

    @Light Lucario I’ve heard Autism Speaks has been improving over the years and they are aware of their past mistakes (ex. they actually dropped the term “cure“ in 2016 and being ashamed over their old I Am Autism video from 2009.)

    If that's true, then that's good. I don't think that necessarily fixes all of the problems the autistic community has with Autism Speaks. It is still pretty infamous even now, but slowly improving is better than nothing I suppose.
    Tara Strong sounds like she's contracted some serious disease.

    Tara Strong has been saying dumb things on Twitter for years. Her finally being called on it is long overdue. She's always been like this.

    I can't find the original post. Did she already take it down? Or was this not really her posting?
    Considering how earlier this year the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U eshops shut down (it occurred this late March) and with the XBox 360 stores soon to follow suit by July 2024, me thinks the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita stores could end services by 2025.
    I'm wondering why the episodes "An Ed Too Many" and "Ed And Seek" ended up airing again on Checkered Past instead of "An Ed in the Bush" and "See No Ed"?
    Are we acting too greedy whenever it comes to dissing NFTs?

    I dunno. I think they're a horrible waste of money, but I feel that way about most aspects of "Geek culture" and I don't think they should be banned anymore than we should ban anime body pillows or day one DLC.
    I thought Paramount Global only owned the Atlas-Oceanic and duArt dubs but not the 4kids and Cinélume dubs of Winx Club? Because the latter two never once aired on Nickelodeon.

    There's going to be a Winx Club event that features restored versions (possibly the Cinelume dub) of season 1 episodes.

    This is like 2011 all over again when Nickelodeon released the four compilation specials.
    It's hard to believe that 15 years ago, Total Drama Island premiered on Teletoon.

    Also, the cast of Revenge of the Island debuted 10 years ago this year.
    E3 is finally actually coming back next year


    I hope it doesn't get canceled anytime soon since the pandemic will likely fade away permanently in 2023.
    I predict that the COVID-19 pandemic will end permanently by 2023.

    The Northeast has it worse than here, yet they’re not going to back to mask mandates.

    I was expecting to end this year, but I guess that might make sense. Otherwise, we’re in a better phase than we are in that horrible 2020.

    Yes but cases are still rising and despite this, California residents might still get boosted and vaccinated this summer and next year, I speculate the mask mandates will end permanently.
