There is Privilege in Only Standing Up Once

You. So I see a flaw in this prompt, and it's that it suggests that there's only a moment, there are only moments, right, where we have to stand up for what is right or to fight for what is right or stand up for ourselves or for our values. And in my reality and in my brain, I am neurodiverse. I'm autistic. That's just just not the truth

Wow. But aren't prompts prompts? Like a prompt is not a Fait Accompli. A prompt is the beginning of everything else. So what you did with this prompt was absolutely perfect, I think, because we start out with one spice and it becomes an entire meal. And you can't ever anticipate the iteration of that meal. And you have proven that by your response here, which is so delicious keeping the food metaphor. Thank you so much. I 100% agree with you. Beautiful

As Oprah Winfrey's character in The Color Purple once said, all my life I had to fight. So I love what you did here. And this, like I said, opens up an entirely different conversation. And that's what I love about Swell. I love the conversation on Swell, and I love how a swell, quote unquote, can give birth to another swell. And that's what this has done. So I love it
