  1. Listening to more of @[email protected]'s book. He's just got on to talking about the betrayal at the end of Breakfast Club, which my old friend Colin wrote about memorably here: everything2.com/node/1351988 #WeirdPride

    The Breakfast Club (idea)

  2. Who Be Monsters? Sympathy for the Monster We Could Be Monsters There's a Monster at the End of this Video It's always been the Time of Monsters Am I not a Man and a Monster? Incorporating Monsters Monster in the Mirror MONSTERS vs SET NORMS ...titles are hard! #WeirdPride youtu.be/0KjgcBFYhAQ?...

    Monstrous Pride

  3. I just caught up with @[email protected]'s lovely short, 'Welcome to my Life'. 'Back when we were young there weren't as many monsters running around, but in today's world there's all kinds of people!' #monstrification #WeirdPride youtu.be/idT98H8TK-U?... or www.facebook.com/watch/?v=101...

  4. Tracking the evolution of the term 'weird' in print. As I understand it, for a long time it was used almost exclusively to refer to the Weird Sisters in Shakespeare's Macbeth and its antecedents. Then it started being applied to stories, then more and more to people... #WeirdPride

  5. Here's the recording of the @[email protected] Radical Book Fair event on #WeirdPride, unruliness and 'outsider wisdom' with @[email protected] and @[email protected] who both had such excellent responses to my questions: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTW_...

  10. So I chaired a panel at Edinburgh's Radical Book Fair yesterday, about #WeirdPride and unruliness, with two fantastic queer, neurodivergent, nonbinary writers and activists: @acaciathorns.bsky.social and @cjdebarra.bsky.social. I loved hearing their thoughts on this. www.youtube.com/live/vTW_j-H...

  11. This year's Edinburgh Radical Book Fair has started! On Saturday at 4pm, I'm chairing 'Divergent: Weird pride, unruliness & outsider wisdom' with @cjdebarra.bsky.social and @acaciathorns.bsky.social (frank r. jagoe can't attend in person, unfortunately). #WeirdPride @lighthousebks.bsky.social

  12. To insult them by calling them weird, I mean. Unless it's done very carefully, it reaffirms that 'weird' is an insult: that being different is bad. #WeirdPride bsky.app/profile/edit...

  13. I'll be chairing this event in a couple of weeks! Very exciting. I've always loved the Radical Book Fair, and it's great to see a #WeirdPride event I didn't organise myself! 😁 Just digging into the books now. Not sure why or how I didn't come across @cjdebarra.bsky.social's book sooner!

  18. It's not as if Zack *isn't* weird, but the Express seems to think this is some kind of insult, which is a ridiculous idea. #WeirdPride

  19. "Using interpretative phenomenological analysis, three main themes emerged from the data. These were as follows: (1) the primary stereotype is that autistic people are 'weird'; (2) autistic stereotypes have negative effects and consequences; and (3) autistic people are heterogeneous. " #WeirdPride

    Autistic people's perspectives...

  20. "My protest now is pushing back against the shame that made me want to fit into a narrow idea of ‘normal’. I’m inspired to resist by living openly, attending more protests, and learning how to create systemic change. It’s up to us to speak up" #WeirdPride

  21. Clem also uses the phrase 'gender weirdo' in this interview, which is excellent. #WeirdPride

  22. Them, after seeing me take a weekly pill box out of my bag that has different types of bird food in each slot, and feed a friendly robin; don't you think you're weird?

    Me; yes.
