  • You’re right, no 13 year old autistic boy has ever made a serious threat! It’s always totally obvious if threatening words from a stranger should be taken seriously or not. Teachers are also always given the full background on every kid in their classroom without exceptions so they should have ignored protocol when hearing a kid say their backpack is going to blow up.

    How could I forget that every single kid with malice in their heart fits the brooding edgelord mold from Columbine and that having autism totally precludes violent intentions?

    Teachers DO NOT GET PAID ENOUGH for that. And even if they were paid fairly, their job isn’t to assess and handle bomb threats.

    The teacher was 100% right to call the administrators. The administrators were 100% wrong to do anything more than gently educate him on his word choice.


  • I’ve got an idea as to why.

    I went to mastodon.social and see a Linux meme, some heavy political commentary, and a bunch of posts about mastodon being better than Twitter.

    I then went to bluesky.app and see some political riffing, cute animals, a comic, some jokes, a company, and even Don Lemon.

    The average person checking them both out for the first time, mastodon is nerd shit and Bluesky is normal shit.
