New Substack publication, who this?
We're moving from a good old subsection of ~ajhalili2006's personal Substack to its own dedicated publication for not just maximum hellscapes.
While I don’t intend to kick things off for this publication on #AutisticPrideMonth (also known as Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month, but I prefer to refer April by that even it’s not June 18 yet, see also the author’s note (read: not me) in Facebook comments) please be decent in my comments section or even my public inbox (or this publication’s separate discussion mailing list) when discussing disability and intersectional issues. If you don’t, there’s a banhammer waiting to be smashed straight to your face equating to one-month tempban (or a permaban if still not).
Hello there, ~ajhalili2006 is speaking right now, but under a very not-existent-email-address pen name, shitfuckery@bullshit.hq (hopefully you don’t call BadBoyHalo, MTRCB and the whole swearing police, that’s intentional by design), because that’s where you would usually send your “thoughts and prayers” (YT clip from @thejuicemedia for more context) to your local Bullshit HQ (In Australia’s case, the Australian Parliament house. For the Philippines, since we’re occupied by the US in the past and still not in federalism, we have separate houses for senators and congresspeople.), in this case, via Tumblr (or privately via email if you will).
Please don't let your kids read this publication without strict parental guidance, especially in the parts where I might do (sometimes accidental/unintended) innuendos like your GoodBadTimesWithScarYourMom (sorry for that MCC 20 reference), or act like you’re watching Honest Government Ads uncensored.
So what’s this, then?
You might not want to see me shitting around the internet on politics and internet shitfuckeries via my main personal account across social apps (especially on Facebook for my family) or even in my personal Substack. So, I decided to make this, alongside @FromTheBSHQ on the fediverse (mstdn.social is my current home for that account), Twitter, and (oh boy) even Facebook, with @shitfuckery-at-bullshit-dot-hq on Tumblr.
Backstory
It started as a regular Tumblr secondary blog with username shitfuckery-at-bullshit-hq after some time of following @thejuicemedia at YouTube, and by extension, the political landscape in Australia, which you could find my personal notes about it almost two years ago in my GitLab user README repo.
A bit of multifandom shitposting had been done before I decided to go separate ways with the creation of @MFHellscapes (fedi) in late February 2023, but still I do for internet shitfuckeries as usual.
What should you expect?
Not only that I just cover internet shitfuckeries across your (probably) toxic communities in long-form blog posts straight to your inbox, but also since this is also an extension of my personal publication (although exists separately due to separation of concerns). Ranging from multifandom writings like fanfics, character/timeline analysis and episode/chapter speed runs, (trash) talking PH gov't shitfuckeries like it’s AUKUS (Australia, UK and US for those who asked, see also this Honest Ad), to my personal life, especially my lived experiences as an #AcutallyAutistic middle child of a middle-class Filipino family (opening this up is still dangerous for me due to ungodly mix of hidden discrimination and economic inequality in the case of the Philippines, as one Redditor said), outside of regular status updates, web dev and open-source related musing and bloody tutorials.
While anyone ABA apologists (and even whoever still support Autism Speaks, goddammit send them to hell and throw away the keys) could heavily scream straight to my inbox saying that I’m “not autistic enough” for them (they're thinking about a non-speaking autistic person with other disabilities (especially learning disabilities) and high support needs (no functioning labels please for the love of god), in my opinion), I’m (formally diagnosed at early age if anyone asking if I’m self-diagnosed and later on discovered as) autistic who is always beating myself up due to the neurotypicalism-influenced masking (approximately as thick as 48 meters from hell) that also hardened by internalized ableism and low self-esstem/corrupted view of myself (not necessarily body image if anyone asked, remember math/performance/social anxiety?), being overworked and workaholic due to the Laziness Lie over the years.
See you soon!
If Musk didn’t choose violence against Substack writers and readers like me, then we should be f**king fine then, but incumbent social media apps don’t like direct relationships between creators and their community and even using better alternatives (hint: mostly centered at the fediverse, although there is also crypto, Matrix, and [list every alternative these incumbents hate]).
In the meanwhile, I’ll be brushing off things on the drafts while doing schoolwork behind the scenes. It might be slow, but surely it is needed for quality control and for mental health reasons. Again, thanks for reading and subscribing!
Thanks for reading this post! If you have any thoughts, go hit reply to this email, comment in the Stack/Medium app or via this publication’s discussion mailing list (see useplaintext.email and go/sourcehut/plaintext-emails before you do). You can also reach the publication via its ask box in Tumblr, mentioning in your next Substack Notes post and in both free-for-all bird hellsite (@FromTheBSHQ@twitter.com) and fediverse (via @FromTheBSHQ@mstdn.social)
